Emma Willis admits Roxanne Pallett interview was ‘uncomfortable’ as Rylan Clark-Neal brands her fake
Emma admitted the pair talked for a long time and said she was annoyed Roxanne ‘repeated’ what she had said on The Jeremy Vine Show earlier in the day
EMMA Willis has admitted her interview with Roxanne Pallett was “uncomfortable”.
The 42-year-old quizzed the former Emmerdale star over her allegations against Ryan Thomas in a pre-recorded chat which aired during tonight’s show.
Emma was praised by viewers for grilling the 35-year-old and for not letting her have an “easy ride”.
But during an appearance on Big Brother’s Bit On The Side after the main show was over, Emma said their meeting was tougher than it looked.
Speaking to Rylan Clark-Neal, Emma said: “It was hard, it was uncomfortable but that’s what was necessary. We’ve watched uncomfortable TV.”
Former housemate Ben Jardine then asked Emma if she believed she has interviewed the “real Roxanne” and the mum-of-three admitted she “wasn’t sure”.

Turning back to Emma, Rylan asked her how she had found speaking to Roxanne after everything that had happened.
She explained: “I feel a lot of what she said was a lot of what she said this morning [during her interview on The Jeremy Vine Show].
“I wanted more out of her. We talked for quite a while. We didn’t have time to put it all in.
“You know there is, what’s the future for her. But what about Ryan? Because now he will always have that paranoia about this hanging over him.”

He couldn’t hide his shock and told Emma he believed Roxanne had a “vendetta” against him.
