Big Brother’s Kerry Riches reveals she’s going to quit the NHS for a brand new TV role after shock eviction
EVICTED Big Brother housemate Kerry Riches has revealed she's going to quit the NHS in the hopes of a new TV role.
The 40-year-old manager for the health service became the fourth housemate to be booted from the TV abode earlier this week.
She was brutally axed through the backdoor as part of a dramatic Halloween twist.
But while her time on Big Brother may be over, Kerry hopes it isn't the last time she's on television.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, she revealed she's vying for a job on the Loose Women panel.
Kerry said: "What I'd loved to be is a Loose Women, I love to chat.

"I love Janet Street Porter, I love Coleen Nolan, I love Nadia Sawhla, that would be lovely."
Kerry, who suffers from multiple sclerosis and uses a wheelchair, has no plans to return to the NHS right now.
She explained: "I love the NHS, I've done it for 21 years, it's a long time and I've always said if doors open for this, then I'd gladly walk through them.
"I've been out such a short period of time, I'd love to do anything, I need a job, I've got a mortgage to pay.

"I would go back to the NHS, it holds such a special place in my heart.
"I was diagnosed in the NHS, I've never been private, I had my son in the NHS. It's been the only employer I've ever known but right now I just need a bit of time off, I'm on a sabbatical, I'm on a career break.
"I started my career break in September, I asked for my career break in April and it was accepted even before I knew I was a housemate.
"I just needed a bit of time away. Work is stressful and coming out of Covid, it took it's toll, especially head of patient experience as well, you have to give your whole self to every patient and for 21 years I've not given a lot of myself to me."
Kerry also revealed she was rushed to see doctors after she suffered a nasty burn while in the house.
Viewers at home didn't see the incident on television, but she praised the production team for being "really on it".
