Celebrity Big Brother’s Fern Britton revealed all about being “distraught” in the house, amid drama with her co-stars.

Fern was eliminated in fifth place on Friday night, leaving Louis Walsh, David Potts, Colson Smith and Nikita Kuzmin battling it out before the winner result. Hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best sat her down for a chat during the live final, where they quizzed her on her time in the house.

The pair asked about her clashes with co-stars Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu, Nikita Kuzmin and Louis Walsh all on separate occasions. She savagely took aim at Ekin-Su during a nominations twist with viewers left in meltdown.

Her and Louis also featured in a spat here or there from time to time, while her row with Nikita came in the final week. She ended up getting booed by the audience during Tuesday’s eviction show as a result, as fans backed Strictly star Nikita over her.

Now, Fern has had her say and admitted there was a misunderstanding with one of the stars. She also claimed another of her cast mates were “right” in calling her out, while there was no hard feelings.

On Nikita she said: “I think we misunderstood each other, I misunderstood him then he misunderstood me and it’s all good now, he’s fantastic.” On Louis, Fern confessed she was “distraught” and “rotten” over having to “evict Louis”, and then on Ekin-Su she claimed her comments about her gave her the confidence to nominate her back.

Fern said: “Ekin-Su had been before me and nominated me and I thought… she was right. She didn’t feel like we communicated or that we got each other, she was absolutely right.”

Regarding her and Nikita, she appeared to think he was seeing her as old and like she needed things to be explained to her. He was baffled as to where her remarks had come from, before explaining she had taken it the wrong way in awkward scenes.

Fern said to him: “You and I get on alright when we’re playing games. Can I tell you? How old are you now?” Nikita answered “26” with Fern replying: “When you’re 66, you’ll have exactly the same brain which is why you have to understand that I’ve still got a 26 year old brain.”

Baffled, Nikita then asked Fern: “I’m a bit confused about this?” Fern then explained to the professional dancer: “You shouldn’t be confused. You never change your brain. Everything is hilarious – all bum jokes, all c**k jokes. Everything is still as it is when you’re 66.”

Not understanding where the conversation was going, a perplexed Nikita then asked Fern: “Are we having a beef? What’s happening?” “I’m just saying never look at an old person and think they’re old,” Fern insisted to her fellow housemate.

“We’re still in our heads 26.” Still confused, Nikita asked: “Referring to?” to which Fern told him: “When you said to me the other day, you were very sweet. ‘I like your stripy top, stripes are in fashion Fern.’ Bless you, you were passing me a compliment but also saying ‘actually they’re in fashion’ as if it was a surprise to me. It wasn’t a surprise.
