In an interview on this morning’s Jeremy Vine Show the former soap actor will break her silence surrounding the events that led to her quitting Celebrity Big Brother (CBB)
It’s been a dramatic five days for Roxanne.
On Wednesday, she alleged that fellow CBB contestant, Ryan Thomas, punched her repeatedly in the stomach.
Thursday’s episode saw Roxanne explain through tears that she was uncomfortable with what happened between her and Ryan and that she wanted to sleep in a separate bedroom. More than 11,000 complaints were received by Ofcom, the media regulator after the episode.

Big Brother gave Ryan, a soap actor on Coronation Street, a formal warning.
Ryan burst into tears in the diary room after the allegations had been made.

Ryan apologised to Roxanne but added:
The incident has divided public opinion. After seeing Ryan in tears, viewers believed that Ryan was merely ‘playfighting’ and turned on Roxanne. The live audience from Friday’s eviction show repeatedly chanted ‘Get Roxy out’.
After hearing the chanting, Roxanne left the house on Friday night/Saturday morning.
