The Games’s Chelcee Grimes and Phoenix Brown in explosive row over cheating in TWO events

THE Games stars Chelcee Grimes and Phoenix Gulzar Brown have come to blows in an explosive row amid claims of cheating in two events.

Scary Spice’s daughter, 23,  has accused Chelcee Grimes, 30, of having given her a “shove” and not playing “fair” during the hurdles.

A further argument broke out yesterday after the girls raced against each other in the 50m breaststroke - and their results came into question.

In scenes that will be shown tonight, Phoenix tells the camera following her after the tight finish in the breaststroke: “So they’re saying they want to re-check it cos they are saying Chelcee came third and I didn’t.  That’s bull crap!  I busted my ass on that.”

Footage seemed to indicate Chelcee had marginally pipped Phoenix for third place in the 50m breaststroke. 

However, a review of the result took place after the race and the technological analysis and independent judge both confirmed that Phoenix was in third place and Chelsee came fourth.

The decision left viewers watching at home scratching their heads and sparked a favouritism row.

In other scenes backstage, Phoenix decided to bring up the close finish between her and Chelcee for first and second place in the 100 metre hurdles event, which was shown on Monday night’s opening show of the Games, with Chelcee winning by a whisker.

Standing among a group of fellow contestants, presenters and production staff, Phoenix, gesturing to Chelcee, said: “She pushed me yesterday.”

Chelcee replied: “I love the girl, but I’m not getting robbed like that.”

Phoenix: “I played fair, you didn’t play fair yesterday, man.”

Chelcee: “Oh, you’re bringing that in.”

Phoenix: “That’s fair play.  If you’re going to re-check this [the breaststroke], then re-check yesterday.”

Chelcee: “What happened?”

Phoenix: “What do you mean? You gave me a shove.”

As the exchange builds up, whoops and cheers can be heard from the wider group, one of whom said: “I’m going home.”

Chelcee and Phoenix are expected to address the issues during tonight’s show.  

The Games continues on ITV tonight at 9pm live from Crystal Palace, featuring the live men's 110m hurdles, women's 400m sprint and javelin.
