Ryan has apologised for play fighting with the Emmerdale actress
In scenes aired in last night's CBB, ex-Emmerdale actress Roxanne Pallett lodged a complaint against housemate Ryan Thomas after she alleged that he "punched her" in the ribs.
After a Groundhog Day task, Roxanne and Ryan appeared to be play fighting in the living room and Ryan jokingly hit her in the ribs.
Roxanne said: "That bloody hurt”, before joking that she wouldn't do Ryan's washing anymore.
She then took herself away and spoke into her microphone to Big Brother, saying: "I've just been beaten up by Corrie's Jason Grimshaw. Big Brother that hurt."
The 35-year-old later shared her feelings in the day room, admitting that she had "gone from being upset, to angry."
Can you remember all of the CBB winners?
Celebrity Big Brother winners so far
Jack Dee: 2001
Jack Dee took part in the show for Comic Relief and everyone seemed surprised, none more so than Jack. The series lasted a paltry five days as it was a more innocent time.
Mark Owen: 2002
The nation fell in love with Mark Owen all over again when he took part while Take That were on hiatus.
Bez: 2005
Happy Mondays dancer Bez made no bones about taking part in the show because he needed the money. During his triumphant series he struck up an unlikely friendship with Jackie Stallone. Yes, really.
Chantelle Houghton: 2006
AS the only non-celebrity in the Celebrity Big Brother house it was perhaps inevitable that Chantelle would win. She went on to marry cast mate Samuel Preston from the Ordinary Boys and later had a baby with subsequent CBB winner Alex Reid.
Shilpa Shetty: 2007
The nation rolled its eye when Shilpa Shetty claimed she was as big as Angelina Jolie. But her grace and dignity in the face of Jade Goody's bullying saw her crowned CBB winner.
Ulrika Johnson: 2009
Ulrika-ka-ka-ka-ka Johnson had stiff competition from Terry Christian, Tina Malone and Mutya Buena but, following a grumpy time in the house, eventually triumphed.
Alex Reid: 2010
Alex Reid was pretty much a twinkle in Katie Price's eye when he entered CBB. He became husband number two shortly after his win.
Paddy Doherty: 2011
Paddy Doherty winning CBB was not the nation's finest hour.
Denise Welch: 2012
Denise Welch took on disgraced X Factor singer Frankie Cocozza, former Towie Kirk Norcross and EastEnders favourite Natalie Cassidy and WON.
Julian Clary: 2012
Well of course Julian Clary won. The man's a national treasure! Mind you, he had stiff competition from Coleen Nolan and Martin (really, Martin? ) Kemp.
Charlotte Crosby: 2013
Charlotte Crosby was the first Geordie Shore cast mate to enter Celebrity Big Brother and she set the bar very high.
Rylan Clark-Neal: 2013
Rylan Clark-Neal was an utter delight during his time in the Borehamwood Bungalow. He now presents Bit On The Side, which is an impressive career trajectory.
Gary Busey: 2014
Gary Busey's time on Celebrity Big Brother was...odd. Still, hats off. he won.
Jim Davison: 2014
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
Katie Price: 2015
Somehow, Katie Hopkins was Katie Price's closest rival for the CBB crown. Thank goodness, the right Katie won. She's denied she's going into the house in 2018 which is a crying shame.
James Hill: 2015
James Hill, anyone? ANYONE? Thought not.
Scotty T: 2016
Scotty T was pitted against Gemma Collins, Megan McKenna, Stephanie Davis and Jeremy McConnell and came out triumphant. His finest hour? Possibly.
Stephen Bear 2016
Bear had an interesting time in the CBB house and a very rude time with Chloe Khan in the CBB toilet. He was up for every single eviction but beat them all and won the show.
Coleen Nolan: 2017
Coleen Nolan did TWO stints in the CBB house, first taking part in 2012. She beat Jedward and won this time around.
Sarah Harding: 2017
Sarah Harding enjoyed a relationship with Chad Johnson during their time in CBB. Alas, things didn't work in the outside world. The former Girls Aloud singer sadly passed away in 2021 after battling cancer.
Shane Jenek (Courtney Act): 2018
Shane Jenek AKA Courtney Act was the stand out star of winter 2018 Celebrity Big Brother, in part because they stood up to the bigoted remarks of house villain Anne Widdecombe.
Ryan Thomas: 2018
Former Corrie star Ryan Thomas was the final ever winner of CBB, despite MAJOR controversy in his series involving Roxanne Pallet.
Calling for Ryan to be removed from the house, she told Big Brother: "A boy has punched me repeatedly, unprovoked, completely deliberate. He actually punched me. Like a boxer would [strike] a back!
"We weren't play fighting. It wasn't banter. It wasn't a joke. There was no exchange.
"I can't believe you're letting someone stay who's done that. It's not okay!"
Ryan was then called to the diary room where he was given a formal warning.
He was accused of "unacceptable behaviour" and while Big Brother acknowledged that his intent was likely playful, he was warned that it was no excuse.
Accepting the warning, Ryan said: "From your point of view, yes [it's unacceptable].
"I think we both know, and Roxanne knows, that there was no malice or hurt or anger in anything that I did during this time.
"But from your point of view, while doing this show, I'm sorry and I understand."
