Fern Britton revealed too much about herself to Zeze Millz on Celebrity Big Brother, leaving viewers crying ‘TMI’.
The former This Morning host, 66, was conversing with the YouTuber, 34, at the start of Monday’s broadcast when she disclosed, unprompted, that she occasionally enjoys being commando.
Not only that, but commandos dressed in jeans.
Zeze said she couldn’t imagine wearing jeans with no underwear underneath, to which Fern responded breezily ‘I do it all the time, it’s fine.’
She added that her daughters are ‘revolted’ by it, but gave another TMI update as she said her daughters then say ‘it’s alright for you because you’re so old you’re probably all dried up up there’.
Fans, unsurprisingly, reacted strongly to the former daytime TV host’s open remark, flocking to X in droves to express their feelings.
User Charlie wrote: ‘Fern wearing jeans without underwear… bloody hell she’s brave,’ and Stephen J Holloway said ‘we didn’t need to know about Fern going commando,’ along with a laughing emoji.
Cameron said ‘Fern going commando in jeans is something I did NOT need to know!’
‘Fern?! No underwear and jeans. MY GOD,’ Jordan&Bailey wrote,’ and Mary pleaded ‘Fern TMI!’
Her confession comes on the heels of a crazy night in the Celebrity Big Brother House, where Fern has been put up for eviction with Louis Walsh and Lauren Simon – after Sharon Osbourne, 71, opted to rescue Zeze and traded Fern for her.
Fern was shocked by Sharon’s decision, and she burst into tears later that night while chatting in the diary room, because Sharon mentioned her age while picking her to replace Zed.
Speaking with tears rolling down her cheeks, she said ‘this is a game and it’s been fun. I’m loving the people, it’s a great experience for an oldie, an old-timer.’
‘I understand it,’ she said. ‘If my time is up I will look back on this as one of the greatest, kindest episodes in my working life.’
She added with a tearful laugh: ‘It’s been great, she says though pouring tears! But it is what it is.’
Fern has shown to be a highly vocal roommate in her first week in the house, and on Sunday’s episode, she made waves by stating that she hopes Melania Trump has a ‘man on the side’ in her marriage to Donald Trump.
The second eviction in the series, after Kate Middleton’s uncle Gary Goldsmith’s removal last week, will take place on Tuesday’s show.
Celebrity Big Brother returns Tuesday at 9pm on ITV and ITVX.
