However upon leaving, Calum Best has revealed he is indeed dating Ianthe Rose, 23, saying he is ‘crazy’ about the girl.
The 34-year-old reality star is so loved up with the model that he has even introduced her to his mother.
‘My mum can see how crazy I am about Ianthe, and she’s thrilled that she’s come into my life at a really good time because everything is positive and I’m in a really good place’ explained Calum.
‘I have honestly never felt this strongly about anyone before or wanted to evolve a relationship as much as I do this one. And that feels really great.’
Viewers of 2015’s CBB may be confused at Calum’s latest revelations, seeing as he and Cami Li seemed destined for a showmance throughout the programme.
But Calum said being apart from the stunning model only made him care about her more.
'I have never been so desperate to see someone as I was by the end of that four weeks.’
‘What is it they say? Distance makes the heart grow fonder?
'And it’s true, because I have never been so desperate to see someone as I was by the end of that four weeks.’
It appears the feeling is mutual, with Ianthe saying: ‘What I know of him so far is that he is the sweetest, kindest, most considerate man I have ever been involved with. He is, as people are now realising, a real gentleman and I find that really refreshing.’
