Bradley Riches, a 22-year-old actor, faced a heartbreaking moment during his time in the Celebrity Big Brother house. He revealed on social media that his beloved grandad had passed away while he was competing on the popular ITV show. He shared a photo of his grandad and wrote a heartfelt message, expressing his love and admiration for him.
Unfortunately, Bradley's time in the house was cut short as he was evicted in a surprise backdoor eviction just two days before the final. He came in sixth place, with TV star David Potts taking home the first prize after the public vote. Aj Odudu and Will Best announced that Dancing with the Stars' Nikita Kuzmin came in second place, followed by Coronation Street star Colson Smith in third, Louis Walsh in fourth, and TV presenter Fern Britton in fifth.
Bradley gained recognition for his role as James McEwan in the popular Netflix series Heartstopper, and his appearance on the reality show only solidified his popularity. He used his platform to pay tribute to his grandad and shared his experiences as an autistic individual, hoping to inspire and connect with others who may feel misunderstood.
Speaking about his role on Heartstopper, Bradley shared that he was initially hesitant to audition, but his mother encouraged him to do so. He also revealed that he was diagnosed with autism at the age of nine and hopes to use his fame to create awareness and understanding for the community.
In other Celebrity Big Brother news, former X Factor judge Louis Walsh opened up about his true feelings towards his fellow housemates. He described Fern Britton as "okay" but felt that she desperately wanted to win. He went on to say that she was like "wallpaper" in the house because she didn't contribute much to the atmosphere.
Reflecting on his experience in the house, Louis shared that he was diagnosed with blood cancer during the pandemic, and being on the show made him realize the need to be kinder and less confrontational. He admitted to being "catty" and speaking his mind, but he hopes to change that and be more understanding towards others.
Celebrity Big Brother made a comeback last year with huge success, surpassing even popular shows like Love Island in viewership. The spin-off show, featuring famous personalities, also gained a significant audience, with an average of 1.7 million viewers tuning in to follow the drama.
