Fern Britton accused of exaggerating injury on Celebrity Big Brother after colliding with Nikita
FERN Britton has been accused of exaggerating injury on Celebrity Big Brother after colliding with Nikita Kuzmin.
The TV presenter was taking part in a balloon popping game in the ITV house.
Things got frantic before Fern Britton accidently fell and hit her the back of her head on an ottoman in the bedroom.
Big Brother immediately halted the game whilst the former This Morning star rested and recovered in a darkened Diary Room.
However, the panelists on Celebrity Big Brother Late and Live feel that her injury might not be as bad as it appeared.
AJ Odudu was joined by Jordan North, comedian Eddie Kadi and Brenda Edwards.
The presenter noted that the star “did take quite a tumble” and a ‘knock’ to the head.
She then continued: “Were you surprised she took it so graciously?”
However, Brenda Edwards implied that the two may have been watching different programmes.
The Loose Women personality hinted that her injury might have been exaggerated, and that she could have been around the house longer to accept Nikita’s apology.
That was though the Strictly professional did escourt the former This Morning star to the Diary Room.
She replied: “Did she take that graciously? I missed that bit … sorry!
She’s not being a very good sport. You know, I think Nikita was very, very upset. You can see he was visibly upset.
“And I think she should have just hung around a bit to let him, you know, give his point of view and say sorry and accept that.
However, other fans were sceptical especially as they noted that Ferne’s injury may have been more painful due to the fact she was wearing a hair clip.
One fan stated: “You can see how soft it is, but the force that Fern fell into it, it was bound to hurt. Whether it’s soft or not, it’s an accident. #CBB #CBBUK.”
Another noted: “Nikita doesn’t have a bad bone in his body. You could see he was shaken when he thought he’d hurt Fern. It didn’t help with the hair clip she was wearing.”
“Nakita wrestling Marisha and Fern to win the game was a lot… he’s Lucky Fern wasn’t seriously hurt. He was very rough #CBBUK,” wrote a third viewer.
As a fourth posted: “Oh s*** i didn’t see that fern was wearing a claw clip, that would acc hurt like c*** #cbbuk.”
And a fifth user added: “Ok in fairness, it did seem like it actually hurt. I’m sure not for long but yeah.”
