'TOLD YA!'

Stephen Bear booed as he is crowned CBB champion and sparks fix rumours as he announces ‘I knew I’d win’

Housemate was up against Renee Graziano, Aubrey O'Day, Marnie Simpson, Ricky Norwood and Frankie Grande in the final showdown

STEPHEN Bear has been crowned the champion Celebrity Big Brother 2016 - but came out of the house to boos.

The Ex on the Beach star was up against Renee Graziano, Aubrey O'Day, Marnie Simpson, Ricky Norwood and Frankie Grande in the final showdown and was the bookies favourite to win.

While keeping calm and collected when he left the house - the controversial winner immediately ran to his in-house fling Chloe Khan for a snog as she stood with the other ex-housemates.

Maintaining less-than humble, he said to the crowd: "Told ya!"

He had claimed he 'knew he would win', fuelling conspiracy theories that the final was fixed in his favour.

Ricky came in 2nd, Renee came 3rd, Marnie came 4th, Aubrey came 5th and Frankie came 6th.

In his exit interview, he told Emma Willis that he knew he would win after being put up for every nomination during his time in the house.

He said: "When you believe you are gonna win something, you're gonna win. It's called positivity - it works!"

However, when confronted by the host about his actions in the house, particularly riling up the housemates, he decided to avoid the questions and spent a lot of his time talking about the egg incident - where he pummelled a pile of eggs by 'accidentally' falling over and throwing them into the air.

But Emma managed to show his soft side when she spoke to Bear about his mum who was sitting in the audience, and when he cried last night after seeing her being interviewed by Rylan during an episode of BOTS.

He said: "She never leaves the house...so to see her doing that, it got me."

Bear has been by far the most divisive housemate within the Elstree compound this series- dividing fans with his antics.

He started up a x-rated fling with Chloe Khan soon after starting the show- despite having girlfriend Lillie Lexie Gregg on the outside.

Their antics included them taking dirty showers together, writing around in a ‘massage’ and sucking chocolate off each other’s bodies.

The Ex on the Beach star, whose original claim to fame was dating Geordie Shore lass Vicky Pattison, has also been at the centre of a storm that has suggested bosses are fixing it for him to win by hiding his behaviours, including nearly blinding Sam Fox in a prank gone wrong.

He said: "I know my limits. If they get the hump, then leave them until they're OK again."

However, despite being hated by the public and housemates alike, the cheeky chappy has somehow managed to claw back his popularity with a series of sweet moments including admitting he missed squeeze Chloe after her eviction.

His poor attempts at apologies included making nemesis Aubrey O’Day an ‘I’m Sorry’ card using kitchen condiments and a cereal box after splatting her in the face with a pie, and making breakfast with heart shaped toast for Renee Graziano.

On the final day, he told the diary room:"Thank you for looking after me. I know I haven't been the easiest person to look after."
