Doubling down, Tiffany continued: 'I feel like he's some kind of flesh-eating disease. That rots at you... Gives you the heebie-jeebies.''He doesn't make anyone feel comfortable.

'I was like, even me, I was like "why am I apologising right now?" But I think it's something that I'm, I'm young, I need to navigate it.''I would just say, wait for the reunion because there's somethings that I've watched back that I'm like ''I wouldn't, I would not ever, ever let a boy speak to me like that.'' 'I have so much love for Omar, I genuinely do, I think he's hilarious, but at the end of the day I had to remind myself that during my arguments with him, no other housemates were there.'I'm gonna be stronger, I'm with my family and friends, I have a bit to the reunion, and there is a sense of protecting him but it's also like, I need to protect myself too.'Rhianna said that she is 'missing' Omar since leaving the house, telling her sister that it was 'OK' to be pining for him after they shared a bed together in the house. Omar's behaviour has included scolding Rhianna for speaking about their fallout to other housemates, using worrying language such as 'don't talk about me', 'don't cry', 'don't look away from me', 'sort yourself out' and 'fix up'.Watch or listen to the full episode with Tiffany Pollard on Friday, November 6 by searching for Tales From The Celebrity Trenches, wherever you get your podcasts.
