Celebrity Big Brother’s Paul Danan threatens his temper will EXPLODE – if bullies pick on him inside the house

CELEBRITY Big Brother's Paul Danan has threatened that his temper will EXPLODE if bullies target him the house.

The former Hollyoaks star was famously booted off the celebrity edition of Love Island 12 years ago for kicking off when his fellow islanders refused to sleep in the same bed as him.

He was later allowed back into the villa after he calmed but says he's learned to control his temper over the past few years.

However, Paul says he won't tolerate bullying inside the CBB house.

Speaking exclusively to The Sun Online before the show kicked off on Tuesday, he said there won't be a repeat of his Love Island days - unless someone targets him.

He said: "I've learnt, I've been through some really dark times, we all know about my struggles.

"I've been through a lot of therapy and I've learnt to take a breath before I think sometimes.

"I'm now a father, and you become more mature and grow up."

But the 39-year-old said he's not afraid of confrontation and will hit back if it's for the right reasons.

"The temper is a bit of me, and everyone can get wound up, I can get wound up," he said.

"There are many colours to me. I just hope it comes out the right time when it's necessary. Not 'oh god Paul's kicking off again'."

The dad-of-one said he won't stand for cliques developing in the house and hopes he can bridge the gap between groups that may form.

He said: "I won't tolerate bullying, people who pick on me or pick on others and talk behind people's backs.

"I'm going to try and be as honest as possible. Honesty is important. None of these game plans and nominating and segregation.

"People joining gangs, saying 'that's the old crew, that's the young crew, they're the sober ones, they're the smokers' - f**k it we're a family.

"We've all got to share each other's space and sleep in each other's shit. Let's just get along."

He also wants viewers to see another side to him - and says he's changed from his partying and addiction days that saw  him DIE and be brought back to life by paramedics after he snorted heroin.

"I know it's a big deal to see me alive. People know I'm telly gold. They know I'll cause havoc but I'll cause havoc in a good way," he said.

"You might think I'm that guy that just gets pissed but I'm not. I'm the guy who just wants to have a laugh."
