Tilly Whitfield was among the eight new housemates who entered the Big Brother house last week after enduring a 24-hour plane simulator.
But during Sunday’s episode, the 20-year-old blonde bombshell burst into tears amid fears she was already being sent home.

Sarah Jane ‘SJ’ Adams nominated Tilly for ‘using all the chickpeas’ after winning the challenge alongside her co-stars.
During the episode, Tilly was seen looking distressed in the yard before she ran inside, ‘I burnt some chickpeas and now I’m going home,’ she said.
Tilly then confronted the 66-year-old antiques dealer to ask exactly why she wanted her out of the house.

‘SJ? Can I just ask, I’m not angry but why was I put up? [Was it] to do with lentils?’ she asked.
‘I’m a vegetarian… And there’s very little protein in the house. And our only protein is the tins of chickpeas,’ Sarah explained.
‘Darling you should have told me,’ Tilly replied, to which SJ hit back, ‘It was too late. It was left in the oven burning, and it was like a lot of it.’
‘I’m not having a go at you. Please don’t think I’m having a go,’ Tilly continued. ‘Like, I feel bad now. I just wouldn’t want to go home because of chickpeas.’

Tilly explained that she wishes that Sarah Jane brought up the issue with her at the time, instead of holding it in.
Following their confrontation, Tilly was given a pep talk from fellow housemate Daniel Hayes, who helped her shine at the eviction ceremony.
