During scenes aired on Channel 5 last night, Angie Bowie was called into the Diary Room to be given the sad news her ex-husband David Bowie had passed away.
Angie, 66, decided to stay in the house despite the news, and confided in EastEnders star John Partridge and David Gest – telling them to keep the tragic information a secret.
But Angie, who was married to Bowie for 10 years, then broke the news to US reality TV star Tiffany Pollard… with disastrous results.
Unfortunately Tiffany, 34, immediately assumed the David in question was in fact David Gest, and broke down in hysterics.
After shrieking at the news, Tiffany cried: “We got to get everyone together… I feel sick, I need a drink.”
Tiffany rushed out into the garden to inform her other housemates, screaming: “I can’t keep this a secret, she told me not to tell anybody… I’m not able not to tell anyone.
“I hope she’s just joking but she said she’s not, she told me that David is dead.”
The other celebrities, including Danniella Westbrook and Darren Day, were understandably baffled, and jumped up to find David.
Of course, the housemates found David Gest alive and well in the bedroom – and Tifanny’s despair turned to anger.
She fumed: “Why the f**k would she say that? David she just told me that you’re dead!”
She tells her about David Bowie dying ... She thinks she means David Gest "David has died in the diary room"□□□□□ > >

With the other celebs still unaware of David Bowie’s passing, Danniella commented: “That’s f**king sick, she needs to be taken out of here. Speaking ill of other people like that.”
But, when John attempted to diffuse the situation by informing them that Angie had meant Bowie, Tiffany refused to believe him.
TOWIE star Gemma Collins, who previously gave Tiffany a pair of Dolce & Gabbana heels for her birthday, looked on in horror and mused: “I want my shoes back.”
David Gest later convinced Tiffany to apologise to Angie.
