Celebrity Big Brother risked a bullying row after a group of housemates were branded ‘toxic’ for their behaviour during Tuesday night’s episode.
During the latest episode of the hit ITV show, Danny Beard, 32, Ella Rae Wise, 24, and Jack P. Shepherd, 37, were seen sneakily opening a bag of popcorn that belonged to JoJo Siwa, 21.
The move came after JoJo and Chris Hughes broke Big Brother’s rules by sharing secret messages.
As punishment, the duo were required to speak only through megaphones – a consequence that didn’t sit well with the other housemates.
Daley fumed: ‘That’s not a punishment, that’s a punishment for us. They’re laughing because they’re annoying us.’
Angellica Bell added: ‘Big Brother likes to put a cat amongst the pigeons.’

During Tuesday’s episode of the hit ITV show, Danny Beard, 32, Ella Rae Wise, 24, and Jack P. Shepherd, 37, were seen sneakily opening a bag of popcorn that belonged to JoJo Siwa, 21
Clearly unimpressed, several housemates – including Danny – stormed into the food storage room and took JoJo’s popcorn.
Danny forcefully ripped open the bag, and the group began tucking in without JoJo knowing.
Laughing with a mouthful of the treat, Ella quipped: ‘It’s even better when it’s hers,’ as she and Angellica agreed on their love for popcorn.
However, viewers were left unimpressed with their actions, flocking to X (formerly Twitter) to express their outrage.
One viewer questioned: ‘Why are they being so toxic.’; ‘Embarrassing childish bully behaviour.’;
‘Is Ella fuming because Chris doesn’t fancy her and gets along with JoJo? Get a life. #cbbuk.’; ‘Ella is actually obsessed with Chris and Jojo! Bore off and let them have fun! #cbbuk.’;
‘I don’t find that very funny and it’s bordering bullying atp [at this point] get Ella OUT!! Danny is getting just as bad.’
Later in the episode, JoJo opened up to Big Brother about the secret message she had sent to Chris.

When asked in the Diary Room, she revealed: ‘It’s something that I’m not ready necessarily to be open about or upfront about but it has to do with gender and how do I feel.
She went on: ‘Let’s put it this way. Oh my God, this is a lot. Essentially, you have female, you have male. I’ve met a lot of females and love them but don’t feel like I’m them. Met a lot of males, love them but definitely not them.’
Elsewhere in the show, Trisha Goddard became the second housemate to be evicted from Celebrity Big Brother 2025.
The veteran broadcaster, 67, had signed up for the ITV show to prove to patients that they should ‘not be scared of living’ after being diagnosed with terminal stage four cancer.
But after going head-to-head with Patsy Palmer and Jack P Shepherd in the public vote, Trisha received the fewest votes to be saved and exited the house after nine days.
