Since Monday, the public have been voting to save James or Grant. During tonight’s Channel 5 programme, Emma Willis announced live to the house that the first person to leave would be GRANT.
Following the announcement, Grant said his goodbyes and left the house, greeted by Emma and a mixed reaction from the crowd.
Emma asked Grant how it feels to be first out: “Mixed emotions. I wanted to be myself and do my best, and didn’t want to be first out. Everything becomes hyper sensitive! I am glad to be out and to see my children and to sleep in my bed!”
Grant continues: “I don’t know what you’ve seen, I haven’t pretended, I didn’t have a strategy. I have loved it.”
Grant was surprised that Ricky nominated him: “When you have to nominate, you hardly know everybody!”
Grant on Marnie: “It was a rolling gag! I liked Marnie but not in that way”. Grant on Bear: “I think he’s very interesting and desperate to win. He’s trying far too hard.”
Celebrity Big Brother continues tomorrow night from 9pm on Channel 5
