RODRIGO: I MISSED MY PHONE TOO MUCH Mystery as bosses wield axe
★
The pair were boxing to get over their rage at their rumoured “affair”. Housemates have been gossiping over how close the pair have become. Roxanne told Ben: “I was the topic of conversation last night in the hot tub. It just made me feel sick to my stomach. “If I didn’t have you in this house, I’d be sat in the corner feeling s**t because who else have I got to play with? Boys and girls can be friends.”
The Emmerdale star, who is engaged, then threw a few punches at a cushion Ben was holding.
AXED Rodrigo Alves has admitted he was struggling to cope and missed his phone.
In his first interview, he declared he’d had enough of life in the TV house.
Bosses removed the plastic surgery addict early yesterday after he breached show rules.
Rodrigo, 35, said: “I’m no longer interested in the show or anything to do with it, simply because it wasn’t for me.
“The experience in the house was amazing but enough for me. I was not coping very well to be without my mobile phone and not being in contact with my family and friends.”
Rodrigo left just hours after pal Natalie Nunn was evicted.
He added: “After Natalie left I felt very upset because she was the life and soul in the house and got very much misunderstood.
“All I wanted out of the show was to have fun and to show to the UK that I’m a nice and fun person.”
A week ago he was reprimanded for using the N-word in a drunken chat. Fans have speculated he had used the racist term again.
But Channel 5 bosses last night refused to say why they had removed him from the show.
In a statement a spokeswoman said: “After a further incident, Rodrigo has been removed from the Big Brother house and will not be returning.”
Meanwhile, the show has racked up more than 1,000 complaints to media watchdog Ofcom amid claims of bullying and racism.
Bosses have also been slammed for signing shamed stars including Dan Osborne and Jermaine Pennant.
