Celebrity Big Brother Late & Live has been slapped with over 130 Ofcom complaints from angry viewers.
Love Island winner Ekin-Su Culculoglu was given the boot from the famous house on Friday (March 15) night a shock double elimination alongside businessman Levi Roots.
They both appeared on the ITV2 spin-off show to speak to hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best straight after the main live show to discuss their time on the show.

However, Ekin-Su appeared to clash with presenter AJ and guest panelist Layton Williams during the heated live show. Ofcom have since confirmed that they have received 139 reports “related to the treatment of Ekin-Su by the presenters and guest panel” on March 15.

When discussing Ekin-Su’s argument with fellow contestant Marisha Wallace, former Strictly star Layton jumped to the latter’s defence. Ekin-Su then claimed the edit of the show hadn’t shown her true personality before AJ was forced to step in and correct her.
Marisha nominated Ekin-Su which left the reality TV in tears and she orginally refused to accept the theatre star’s apology. Keen to address this, and defend Marisha, Layton said to Ekin: “She had to pick someone just like you picked Louis [Walsh].

“Louis squashed it and kind of kept it moving and unfortunately, you dragged it on.” The Everybody’s Talking About Jamie star then said he felt for her as she was just nominated for an Olivier Award.
But not having any of it, Ekin spat back: “You haven’t seen everything, they cut stuff out.” Not taking it lying down, Layton called her out and said: “You’re not going to blame it on the edit. One thing you’re not going to do is blame it on the edit. We see what we see and it’s a shame.”

As Ekin continued to blame the “editing”, host AJ intervened and said: “It’s interesting as you’ve literally just walked out of the house, you can’t have seen what’s been shown and what’s been said. But I can assure you that everything that has been seen and has been shown, has been said by you!”
Celebrity Big Brother Late & Live airs Sunday to Friday on ITV2 and ITVX at 10pm
