Celebrity Big Brother’s Chris Hughes’ brother has teared into ‘jealous’ Ella Rae Wise on Monday’s episode of Lorraine as their awkward feud rumbles on.
Sunday’s episode of the ITV show saw the Towie star, 24, sink her claws into the Dance Moms star, 21.
Ella was asked who she thought ‘wasn’t her cup of tea’ and who is ‘trying way too hard to impress’ out of her housemates during a game of Bingo as part of last week’s task – and she answered both with JoJo.
Tensions have run high in recent days between Ella Rae, Chris and JoJo and step-in host Christine Lampard, 46, asked what Ben thought about it all.
Ben said: ‘In my personal point of view, I think she got a little bit jealous about their friendship between Chris and JoJo and she did wonder why she wasn’t part of that friendship due to them all being a younger age.
‘A lot younger than most in the house.

‘But I do believe Daley has left the biggest bombshell and really blown things out of the water.’
Chris and JoJo’s increasingly close friendship has raised a few eyebrows with viewers and many have been left wondering what is actually going on between the pair.
The hunk, who sH๏τ to fame on Love Island in 2017, is single, while JoJo is gay and in a relationship with Kath Ebbs.
Some have wondered if they are more than friends, while Daley inferred that he thinks they are playing a game before he was evicted on Friday night.
After Ella Rae’s confessions, Chris shared what he thought about her comments, and also shared that he thinks she’s ‘jealous.’
Speaking to Big Brother, Chris said: ‘I’ve never had to in my life, justify a friendship with somebody.
‘It’s kind of stemmed from Daley.
‘He probably thinks that I’m friends with JoJo to have more screen time, to do this, to do that, but I was close with her from early doors.
‘If I found her hellishly annoying, which clearly Ella does, I wouldn’t really hang around with her that much, but I don’t because our energies match and we are two quite similar people.
Daley (pictured) told Ella: ‘I’ve got no advice for you expect, I know it’s difficult, but if you’re struggling to be herd, put your hand up’ on Friday night

‘It would be similar to me justifying why I’m friends with Jack. ‘
Big Brother asked: ‘What do you think is Ella’s take on it?’
‘Well I think Ella’s an interesting one. I don’t think she liked the fact that me and JoJo are friends.
‘She clearly, I could tell by her answers there, she isn’t sweet on JoJo.
‘So maybe I dunno, there might be a jealousy thing there. I don’t know, she likes to have her two pence worth and if she’s out of a conversation she wants to be in it.’
On Friday evening, Daley said to Ella Rae: ‘I’ve got no advice for you expect, I know it’s difficult, but if you’re struggling to be heard, put your hand up.
‘Because there’s some people that are really loud, and there’s some people that do this professionally as a game.
‘There’s two people in here that do it all of the time, okay?
‘And I think, on the cameras and stuff, people will be interested in their relationship.’
Chris appears to get very emotional during Monday’s instalment of the ITV show because of the current drama.
He sobbed in the Diary Room: ‘I’m literally just in here being me, living I hate f***king toxic stuff in life like I hate environments’.
Before adding: ‘It just brings you down.’
Fans have had much to say about Chris’ behaviour towards the much younger JoJo, which was branded ‘creepy’ and ‘not normal’ after he offered to ‘have her babies’.
Lorraine airs weekdays from 9am on ITV1 and is available to stream on ITVX.
