Married at First Sight star Ben Jardine has revealed he no longer has any contact with his Celebrity Big Brother flame Roxanne Pallett.
The pair found their flirtation during CBB in 2018 and caused a stir due to them both being taken and having partners on the outside.
During his exclusive Daily Star chat, focusing on the upcoming celebrity boxing night of the year, Boxstar, he revealed all.
Ben is currently training Love Island beauty AJ Bunker who will be fighting on the night, at London’s O2 on April 30th.
However, when asked who would like to get him in the ring, and whether he thought Roxanne Pallett’s ex-boyfriend Lee Walton would want a go, he laughed and said he hasn’t heard from either of them since the show.

Ben said: “Roxanne is all married up now in New York isn’t she, with a fireman…” in reference to her New York firefighter husband Jason Carrion.
He continued: “Do you know what, there are a few out there who would like to get me in the ring, and who I would like to get in there, which include Jack Fincham who promised me to but the coward pulled out.”

In a previous Daily Star interview, when quizzed about his time on CBB, he still said he had an amazing time, despite the drama caused by Roxanne.
When speaking of the sexual chemistry he had with the actress, he said: “Roxy was trying it on all the time, all the time, there were so many things that I could have got away with but I knew that the world was watching.
“She was a spitting image of my ex missus too, Big Brother knew what they were doing.”

There was also a major controversy inside the CBB house which is now known as ‘punch gate’.
This refers to Roxanne accusing soap star Ryan Thomas of punching her repeatedly and violently in the ribs.
Roxanne made such an ordeal over the situation and tried to paint Ryan out to be abusive, while also trying to convince Ben of that too.

Talking on the topic, Ben said: “There was a lot of times when I did speak to Big Brother about the Roxanne situation. My nan suffered a lot from domestic abuse so it’s very close to my heart.
“But I’m very proud of how I dealt with things. I always think about it. I handled myself as a gentleman and made a friend in Ryan off the back of it.”
