Celebrity Big Brother shock as controversial housemate is evicted in brutal triple eviction
CELEBRITY Big Brother star Ella Rae Wise was sent packing tonight in a brutal triple eviction.
Tonight saw three housemates being booted out of Big Brother‘s house following the public vote.
Ella went up against Angellica Bell, Chris Hughes, Ella Rae Wise, Patsy Palmer and Danny Beard in tonight’s triple dumping.
But the controversial Towie star, 24, found herself saying goodbye to her fellow housemates after being evited.
Ella’s exit came shortly after Angellica became the first housemate to be evited tonight.
During her exit interview with AJ Odudu and Will Best, Ella admitted she wasn’t surprised by her nominations.
Ella then addressed her ‘feud’ with Chris and JoJo and insisted she “felt he never took time out to get to know her as a person”.
“We’re all equal in the house. It is what it is. I had some outside information before I came into the house,” Ella continued.
“We had mutual friends and when we’re in the same field of work, I thought he would be open to get to know me.”
Ella admitted she was “protective” over JoJo because she did not want the 21-year-old to be “used” by Love Islander Chris.
Ella’s time in the house divided fans who thought her “gameplan” had backfired on her.
The Sun revealed that Ella dumped boyfriend Dan Edgar in a bid to have a “fake showmace” in Celebrity Big Brother.
ITV viewers claimed Ella has been “jealous” of Chris and JoJo Siwa‘s close friendship, after she was often caught “b******g about them”.
A source told The Sun that Ella, 24, had set her sights on Love Island‘s Chris before she had even split from Dan, 34.
They said that Ella wanted to be part of a “CBB love story” in order to “boost her chances of staying longer” on the ITV fly-on-the-wall show.
A source told The Sun: “Ella had already been telling pals over the past few weeks that she didn’t see a long-term future for Dan.
“It was clear their relationship was nearing the end and with Ella having managed to land CBB, she knew she wanted to give producers what they were after.”
They explained that Ella was aware that she is not as well know as some of the other housemates and knew she needed a romance storyline to secure the votes.
“She’s a smart girl and knows exactly how this industry works and why she makes good TV and with being one of the lesser known names on the cast, Ella told pals that she thought an on-screen romance would boost her chances of staying in the house long-term,” they said.
“As soon as she heard Chris Hughes would be living with her, she targeted him to be her next TV lover.
“There’s a reason her opening VT was all about flirting as she’s desperate to be part of the next CBB love story.”
CBB fans have hit out at Ella for playing a game on the show as she failed to strike up a romance with Chris.
One wrote: “Imagine the straight guy picking a platonic friendship with a lesbian over flirting with some lass off TOWIE. I know Ella is vexed, she wanted that showmance.”
A second posted: “Ella defo dumped her ex for a showmance with Chris! Now she is upset that he isn’t interested lol.”
A third commented: I think Ella is upset that Jojo is getting attention from Chris (even platonic). She clearly sees herself as the prize & is wondering why he isn’t fawning at her feet.”
Ella’s has also struggled with some housemates who claimed she was not a team-player when it came to participating in tasks.
The TV star also clashed with Mickey Rourke early after he said some inappropriate comments to her, leaving her in tears.
On last night’s show, it all got too much for Ella as she stormed out of nominations and sobbed in the corridor.
Ella then explained one of her choices and said: “I’m nominating Chris. I’ve been told you like to play a massive game. And you come into things with a game plan. And when Daley said that to me, and told me to be careful, it sort of solidified that to me, and I can’t get it out of my head.”
As nominations continued to unfold, it all proved too much for Ella.
JoJo nominated Ella and explained: “When we do a task I think sometimes I see you almost decide how you’re going to feel about something before it’s even happened and almost want there to be a problem or there to be a negative or a drama.
“I think that can be really hard when there is attention that doesn’t need to be there.”
Ella broke down in tears and furiously stormed out.
Strategic move?
It comes after JoJo Siwa nominated Danny Beard as her replacement to face eviction earlier this week.
JoJo claimed her decision was based on Danny not always being able to “read the room”, but ITV viewers think there’s a more strategic reason behind the move.
According to some, JoJo sees Danny, 32, as a serious threat to her chances of winning the show.
They shared their thoughts beneath the CBB account’s latest Instagram post, confirming that Angellica Bell, Chris Hughes, Ella Rae Wise, Patsy Palmer and Danny are all facing the dreaded Triple Tuesday Eviction.
One commented: “Jojo is gunning for Danny. Danny for the win.”
Another said: “Yes I think Jojo knows Danny has a chance of winning,” while a third pointed out: “She nominated him last week too.”
Someone else claimed: “Everyone knows Danny’s gonna win, he’s a regular on late and live and friends with all the producers, lol.”
