Denise Welch has sparked rumours of a feud with Celebrity Big Brother star Fern Britton.
Former Coronation Street star Denise, 65, has been avidly watching the latest series of the reality TV titan. Denise herself, already has experience of being in the House, having competed in an early season of the show on Channel 5 in 2012.
However, as she tucked into another instalment of the show on Monday (March 18), it seems that she was more than happy to let rip on some of the housemates. One particular guest that was spared no mercy was former This Morning host Fern, 66.

In the thrilling episode from Monday, Fern was given the opportunity to “evict” one housemate by placing a snake on their pillow, in honour of St. Patrick banishing the snakes out of Ireland. However, what Fern did not know was that the housemate she saved would be immune from facing the next public vote.
As a result, Fern picked Louis to be “evicted”, citing that they had become friends since the show started, but added it was his time to go. After finding out the twist at nominations, Fern broke down in tears and eventually came clean on her secret task, leading to Louis discovering it was her all along.
Denise, who was watching the ITV show, took to her social media accounts on Monday to give fans her thoughts as she was watching along. However, during the course of the show, Denise jumped at the chance to get a dig in, penning: “The mask is slip sliding away.”
Many fans were bemused by the seemingly ominous comment, while many other eagle-eyed fans were quick to come up with their own theories as to what Denise was saying. Several fans believed that Fern and Denise have unpleasant history, with many chiming in: “Fern?”
A second user begged Denise to “spill the tea” on what had gone on between the pair. Whilst a third account jumped to Britton’s defence, claiming: “If you’re talking about Fern, I love her.”
It comes as Fern is the last woman in contention to win the entire show following Tuesday night’s double eviction. With Marisha Wallace and Zeze Millz being voted out by the public, Fern was the only female housemate left.
However, her place in the final is still not confirmed just yet due to a twist being played at the hands of Big Brother. On Wednesday (March 20), the lines were frozen and a vote count was taken – with the housemate with the fewest votes to save being given a backdoor eviction in Thursday night’s episode (March 21).
The final of Celebrity Big Brother takes place on Friday (March 22) at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
