The former escort is famously outspoken, but in a recent episode of the reality show she went too far when commenting on fellow housemate Brian Belo.

Thousands of complaints have been made to regulator Ofcom after Wood compared Belo to a rapist and murderer - with the later saying he felt ‘degraded’ by her treatment of him.

This isn’t the first time Helen’s big mouth has landed Big Brother in trouble. Her stint on last year’s series drew almost 4,000 complaints, with many alleging she was bullying other housemates.

Ofcom said they would now assess the complaints from Wednesday’s show ‘before deciding whether to investigate.’

On Wednesday night’s show, Helen told Belo during an argument: ‘Brian you look like a rapist, you look like a murderer slash rapist.’

And despite being told that her comments were ‘out of order’ by other housemates, Helen went onto say: ‘The men in the white coats are waiting for you, Brian.’

Belo then stormed into the diary room, where he appeared tearful, saying: ‘I feel like I’m being ganged up on. I don’t want to cry. I’ve tried to keep away from there.’

Belo took the decision to escape the house after the incident, climbing over the garden wall.

Helen was given a formal warning after the comments, but could this latest rift mean her time is up in the BB house?
