The former Emmerdale star accused Ryan Thomas of assaulting her on the show and left the house 24 hours before eviction.

But she later claimed to a producer that Ryan had punched her and she was afraid to sleep in the same room as him.
Ryan was later seen sobbing and devastated and said in the diary room: "I didn’t do anything! I don’t understand how she can do this.
