Ella Rae Wise launches into furious rage about Chris Hughes as CBB’s task result revealed
CELEBRITY Big Brother’s Ella Rae Wise launched into a foul-mouthed rant over Chris Hughes as the results of the ITV show challenge were revealed.
It comes after The Sun revealed that TOWIE alum Ella, 24, dumped boyfriend and ITVBe co-star Dan Edgar, 34, in a bid to have a “fake showmance” in Celebrity Big Brother.
Yet after fans speculated her “gameplan” had “backfired” due to her lack of connection with Love Island star Chris, 32, she didn’t hold back.
As housemates were gathered in the diary room in Sunday’s episode, Big Brother told the bunch that they had failed the shopping task – as some stars were not wearing their “full pirate outfit.”
The CBB 2025 cast were donning the fancy dress as American actor Mickey Rourke, 72, got booted out during the explosive challenge.
With Chris a name in the frame for failing to be a proper pirate, Ella was quick to take aim.
Her words came after Chris – who was also punished for discussing nominations with Donna Preston – was urged to take “accountability” for failing in his get up.
With a frown across her face, Ella didn’t hesitate in sharing her views.
She quipped: “So the first shopping task we failed.”
Directing her comments at ITV Racing anchor Chris she continued: “It is what it is.
“Don’t give a s**t do you know what I mean, get over it.
“[He’s saying] I did this I did that. Get over it.”
GAMEPLAN BACKFIRED?
Reality TV star Ella also admitted in the episode that she was surprised that she and Chris were not closer.
During a conversation with Angellica in the bathroom, Ella said: “I thought I would have bonded with Chris the most but no.”
Angellica replied: “He hasn’t really engaged with you,” to which Ella said: “Not at all.”
