Daley Thompson’s final comment to his Celebrity Big Brother housemates have sent them into a spin. The Olympian was the latest star to be dumped from the ITV house following Friday night’s eviction.
Hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best announced he was the fourth victim of the public vote as he was up against EastEnders ‘ Patsy Palmer. Just before the results were read, Daley had one final chat with his housemates.
TOWIE’s Ella Rae Wise headed over to him while sat on the sofas, as she asked: “What advice have you got for us Mr Observer?” He replied: “I have got no advice for you.”
Yet he added: “Except…I know it’s difficult if you are struggling to be heard, put your hand up. Because there’s some people that are really loud and there’s some people that do this professionally as a game.”
Daley continued: “There’s two people in here that do it all of the time. I think on the cameras, people will be interested in their relationship.”
He appeared to be hinting at JoJo Siwa and Chris Hughes following their tight bond that has formed throughout the series. When Daley left the house, Ella had a chat with Danny Beard and Donna Preston about his comments.
Danny branded it a “Daley bomb,” yet Donna appeared less convinced as she reasoned: “At the end of the day it is a game.”
Ella seemed to be convinced that Chris has been playing a game in the house and is using JoJo. She declared: “There’s social climbers in this industry and I think he will benefit a lot from her, I really do.”
Angellica Bell reflected on Ella’s thought in the Diary Room as she admitted: “She is very suspicious. Things are going to ramp up.”
Viewers were divided by the theory as one said: “I reckon Daley was spot on #CBBUK.” Another added: “Poor jealous witch Ella. Hope she leaves next.”
Someone else commented: “Daley knows!!! #cbbuk.” A fourth commented: “I’m SOOOO GLAD Chris and Jojo have twigged onto Ella’s pure jealousy #cbbuk.”
Ella appeared to be getting closer to former Dance Moms star JoJo in recent days yet tension is now brewing. Following Daley’s departure, there is speculation another will be fast in following.
Viewers have been left convinced they know who will leave in a backdoor elimination as time ticks down on this year’s Celebrity Big Brother experience.
Olympian Daley became the fourth housemate to leave following Trisha Goddard, Michael Fabricant and Mikey Rourke. And now the house is set to be shaken by news of the upcoming eviction.
Sharing their thoughts ahead of the next eviction, one fan took to Twitter/X to write: “The backdoor eviction is definitely setup for Ella.”
