BIG Brother evictee Chelsey Ammari has spoken out for the first time since leaving the ITV house to a sea of boos.
The Social Worker was the second housemate to be evicted from the series during last night’s live show.
She was dubbed the show’s villain after clashing with several co-stars inside the house – including celebrity houseguests Jedward.
Now, Chelsey has spoken out in response to the backlash, and given her verdict on the videos circulating about co-star Lynx, who she had a romance with in the house.
Taking to TikTok, Chelsey kicked off her statement by referencing Lynx – who has hit headlines after videos of him appearing to participate in adult content relating to foot fetishes began circulating online.
“The first thing I wanted to say is that I’d literally been out for five minutes last night and I’d already seen all of the pics about Lynx’s feet. So that was an interesting welcome back to the real world,” began Chelsey.
Continuing to divulge on Lynx, whom she kissed several times on the show, Chelsey continued: “In terms of the Lynx thing, I don’t know why everyone is making it so deep. I really enjoyed spending time with him in there and I just enjoyed the experience for what it was, I wasn’t trying to make it a showmance or anything like that.
“And I’m not sat her thinking he’s my boyfriend or he’s gonna be my boyfriend, I was just enjoying spending time with him in there and that’s it.”
Chelsey continued to defend her experience, explaining: “When you’re in there that is literally your whole world. You’re living in there with people 24/7, you’re tired, emotional and it’s a very intense environment – obviously people are going to clash.
“Looking back, there are definately things I would have handled differently, I can completely admit that. But there’s also things that happened in there that you guys didn’t see.”
Chelsey went on to claim that she spoke to housemate Johanne after they clashed on the show to squash things, in scenes that weren’t aired.
“And apparently I’ve also now got beef with Jedward, which I wasn’t expecting. It’s also funny seeing all of this on the outside because when you’re in here you don’t realise how it looks and everything is so intense in there. Now I’m just like, ‘It really wasn’t that deep’.
“I just want to say as well, I am really sorry if I offended anybody or upset anybody. That was never my intention at all,” said Chelsey.
Concluding, Chelsey said she was ‘really glad’ to be back home and out of the house, despite it being an ‘amazing’ experience.
