Big Brother’s Kerry apologises after using gay slur in outburst

Big Brother's Kerry has said sorry after being warned about using 'offensive and outdated' language. On Sunday night's live show, Kerry used the term gay in a negative way.

Kerry was left frustrated when her mattress was hidden by her housemates, who had told her the public had voted for her to lose it.

And while chatting with her housemates Olivia and Jenkin, who lied about what happened to her bed, Kerry said: "Well this is gay", causing outrage amongst viewers.

"I hope she gets reprimanded for that," wrote one viewers, while another added: "'Well this is gay' another slip of the mask."

A spokesperson for Big Brother has since revealed they have spoken to Kerry about her language.

They said: "Kerry was brought to the diary room to discuss her inappropriate use of language. Big Brother reminded Kerry of her respect and inclusion training prior to entering the House and the consequences of any further use of offensive language."

"Kerry understood and apologised for any offence caused."

Kerry's annoyance came after a prank by Olivia and Jenkin. They tricked her into believing the public voted for her to lose her mattress. She was told that ITV producers had sneaked in and taken her mattress away but in reality, her belongings were hidden in the kitchen.

As she pleaded with Big Brother to get her mattress back, Olivia and Jenkin confessed their prank and returned it. Despite laughing along, she cheekily reminded them that they were supposed to be her friends.


The star was branded an "actress" earlier this week following another outburst after she was told to sit in the rain in order to win that part of the task, with those who stood in it for the longest being given the opportunity to win the VIP experience.

When it came to the moment that the contestants would decide who was the most deserving, Kerry began screaming at her co-stars to hurry up, before crying.

"Can't stand whenever Olivia and Kerry shout like GIVE IT A REST ABEG #bbuk", one viewer noted on Twitter.

"Why is Kerry shouting in every episode now?!" asked another, while a third noted, "Kerry is such a terrible actress. #bbuk."

Big Brother continues weeknights at 9pm on ITV.
