BIG Brother star Lewis Flanagan has been spotted for the first time since he was kicked out of the house.

The 27-year-old was axed from the Channel 5 show last week after making an "inappropriate" comment about Auschwitz.

While Lewis has been advised not to leave the house amid the scandal, he was seen taking his dog for a walk this morning.

Wearing a tracksuit, coat and woolly hat, the reality star seemed keen to keep a low profile as he headed out with his pet pooch near his home in Middlesbrough.

It is the first time Lewis has been seen since he was removed from the Borehamwood house on Friday for "unacceptable language".

The Sun Online later revealed Lewis had made a comment about the concentration camp during a conversation with co-star Cameron, which was not shown on-screen.

A source explained: “Lewis has told everyone he was talking to Cameron and said: ‘When we get out of here, we’ll sort you out with some Auschwitz’.

“He said he was supposed to say ‘outfits’. He's told people it was a slip of the tongue and he didn’t know why he said it.”

While the actual comment was never aired, Big Brother bosses did show the moment Lewis was told he was being kicked out the house.

Lewis was quick to apologise for his words, but admitted he “wasn’t ashamed” of what he had said.

The moment Lewis was kicked out was aired on Friday night, with bosses citing 'unacceptable language' as the cause. Lewis apologised, but admitted he 'wasn't ashamed' of his behaviour

He said: “I would say I'm devastated. I didn't mean to offend anyone, it was a slip of the tongue.

“Unfortunately for me my bad language and misuse of certain phrases and certain words has exploded in my face. I would apologise to anyone who I've upset."

He thanked fans for their support upon his return home, but sources have since claimed he feels like "a criminal" as he's been advised to stay housebound by Channel 5 bosses.
