The episode synopsis reads: “It’s day one of the competition in Wolverhampton and bubbly beautician Farida Khalifa is planning to immerse her guests in authentic Indian culture.”

However, not all of her guests were impressed with their experience and contestant Michael only rated her food a seven.

He explained: "The evening lacked a wow factor... and because of the lack of alcohol for the guest."

Tensions were left high as the programme then switched to a preview of the next episode which saw Farida bump heads with Michael as they stood in a child's room.

Farida appeared to have given her stern opinion on something, which urged Michael to respond: "How many kids have you had?

"You say what my sister, you've never had a kid in your life."

Farida's TV past was exposed by fans minutes after her ITV show debut on Big Brother on Sunday.

Despite show bosses insisting they banned influencers from the show, it seems this housemate is no stranger to the world of showbiz.

It turns out, Farida has a celebrity pal, comedian and iconic UK TV host Bradley Walsh.

Aside from her stint on Come Dine With Me, the TV personality recently made an appearance on an episode of Blankety Blank.

One viewer posted on X, formerly Twitter: “So THAT’S why Farida seemed familiar… She was on #BlanketyBlank the other week, with former #bbuk hosts Rylan and Emma!!”

A second shared: “Come Dine With Me? Blankety Blank… now Big Brother… Farida seems to be getting around.”
