Closer’s CBB columnist Nicola McLean: ‘Perez has taken this too far – Nadia will regret their friendship’

Watching Alexander becoming so angry and pushed to his limit by Perez's constant bizarre behaviour – which all seemed to be aimed at tormenting him – was very upsetting.

Alexander spoke to Big Brother before leaving and said, in a round about way, that he had decided to quit to prevent himself from becoming physical with, in my opinion, the most hated housemate in a long time.

He also said, 'In the real world I could just remove myself from the situation.' I was sad that Perez drove Alexander out of the house but if I'm honest I think Alexander did the right thing by leaving.

Earlier in the day he had looked like a man ready for a fight, and while talking about Perez to his other housemate he ranted uncontrollably whilst basically foaming from the mouth. Perez has taken this too far!

The housemates were understandably upset at Big Brother’s announcement regarding Alexander's departure and all but Nadia seemed raging with Perez. Even Kavana expressed his anger – yes, Kavana actually spoke!

What is Nadia doing? She really is hanging herself out to dry with her friendship with Perez, she is also making her experience so much worse by alienating herself with him. What's she going to do when Perez goes? Because I'm pretty sure he will be next out.

Katie Hopkins really let loose last night, telling Perez exactly what she thought of his over the top behaviour and telling Nadia her thoughts on her putting up with him and his craziness.

Nadia ended up in the toilet with Patsy raging about Katie's view but refusing to take the bait. I think when Nadia watches this back she will regret her alliance with Perez.

Katie Price is coming over as one of the most level headed housemates in there – who would have thought it! She and Alicia had a conversation about Katie's eldest child’s father Dwight Yorke. Alicia claimed she was living with him so in fact he had cheated on Alicia with Kate.

Neither girl seemed bothered by this which was slightly strange, Alicia even claimed it launched her career… I thought Dean Gaffney did that for her… or was it Mick Hucknall?”
