Former Big Brother star Imogen Thomas has shared her top tip for finding some peace and quiet away from the kids during lockdown, and we’ll be following suit, pronto.
Sharing a selfie posing in the front seat of her car, Imogen wrote, “Parents: This is called car peace.
“You sit here until your sane again. Then once done you go back into the house.”
“(Btw kids are not alone in the house)”, she quickly added, before the perfect parent bridgade came for her.
Fans and fellow parents were sympathetic to Imogen’s plight, with one writing, “Oh, I know that feeling” and another laughing along, “God I would be in there all day then 🤣.”
“I'd be scared how many miles away I'd get lol”, joked another, while one more said, “The tranquil peace of the car. Survival mode!”

Adele Roberts Big Brother
Adele was one of the original housemates and RAPPED in her audition tape saying why she deserved a place. Bold move. She was popular with her fellow housemates but sadly not with the voting public and was booted out with 62% of the vote on day 43. Still, what a stint.

A bone fide Big Brother success story, Adele is a DJ on Radio 1's Early Breakfast Show. We don't envy her the 4am starts though. Ouch. In November 2019, Adele became an I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out Of Here! campmate.

Alex Sibley Big Brother
When Alex entered the house, it was our strongly held belief that we was the fittest housemate EVER. It was a more innocent time. He came third with 27% of the vote.

Alison Hammond Big Brother
Alison was one of the biggest personalities in the Big Brother house but her card was marked with Alex and Jonny when she admitted she peed in the shower. Bafflingly, she came in 11th place.

Speaking about losing her baby weight after her second pregnancy, Imogen told us, “Yes, I have lost weight but I’ve worked so hard. It’s been a real slog. It's harder to lose the weight the second time round.
“I go to bed hungry. My stomach is rumbling. But that’s how you lose the weight."
And of other mums who “snap back” after pregnancy, she said, “I think, ‘What? How has this happened?’ It can be so disheartening. It’s important for me to give out the message that this isn’t ‘the norm’ for 90 per cent of women.”
