Celebrity Big Brother host Rylan Clark-Neal stays tight lipped on rumours Nicola McLean’s husband Tom Williams is going into the house
RYLAN Clark-Neal has stayed tight lipped over rumours Nicola McLean’s husband Tom Williams is going into the Celebrity Big Brother house.
The CBB host was quizzed on This Morning by Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford about the claims but he wasn’t giving anything away.
Rylan said: “Weekend From Hell is launching tonight, it’s going to be very big.
“One of the rumours is Tom Williams…I cannot confirm or deny whether he is going into the house.”
Former professional footballer Tom sparked rumours he would be going into the house after he posted a cryptic tweet to his 50,000 followers.
The star has stayed relatively silent on social media following his model wife's drunken flirting with Jamie O'Hara this week, only making rare references to the show.
As a friend tweeted: "Bro", Tom replied: "Bro these housemates aren't ready for me #notonmylevel."
Fans immediately commented, sending hurtful messages to the sportsman about the scenes that played out this week, and calling for him to enter the house.
The Sun Online has contacted Channel 5 and Tom's reps for comment.
It came after Jamie promised to back Nicola up to her husband following their boozy flirting.
The football star comforted the worried model, and complimented her on her time on the show so far.
After he gave his friend a quick massage, Jamie told her: "You're coming across amazing, you genuinely are. Seeing you on that screen today I thought... Everyone's going to love you."
Nicola then said: "Not Tom though, getting drunk and... he'll take it as a banter?"
Jamie immediately tried to reassure her, before Nicola said: "No he won't he'll hate me!"
Jamie then replied: "He knows me he knows I'm not going to throw you under the f***ing bus."
Always on hand, Calum Best joked: "You against Tom, yeah I didn't even like him now. I hate him.
"[Nicola's] got 20 more days with us, we'll break this chick! Tom, just kidding!"
It comes after Nicola's husband Tom broke his silence over his wife’s antics earlier this week.
The footballer tweeted to defend his wife after she was filmed kissing Jamie and inviting him into her bed, by claiming Nicola had spent the day with a psychiatrist while in the house.
He tweeted: "Interesting that @bbuk didn't show that Nicola has been with a psychiatrist all day @Rylan @EmmaWillis."
It comes after Nicola was seen bragging that she's got a "free card" in the Celebrity Big Brother house, after hubby Tom "f***ed up so bad".
The star shocked viewers as she got flirty with footie ace Jamie before sharing a kiss on the cheek and hinting the pair have locked lips before.
Just hours later the star woke up worried she'd gone too far as she asked her housemates: “Is Tom gonna hate me?”
Attempting to keep the star calm, Angie Best admitted she might have some “explaining to do”.
Seemingly unphased, Nicola then made reference to allegations her hubby had cheated on her previously.
“I don’t have to explain anything, that’s the joy of when someone f***s up so bad, you’ve got a free card,” she joked.
Nicola split from her husband in 2014 following his alleged affair in Las Vegas, and speaking about her heartbreak at the time, she said: "He knows he's never going to get anyone better than me!
"It's all still raw. He's only just realised what he's lost. It's all still really hard.
"He's definitely trying to win me back, but I'm not sure if that's a good thing.
"I love and respect Tom as a friend and as the father of my kids. I'll always be there for him."
