Louis Walsh has been supported by his fellow Celebrity Big Brother housemate.
Real Housewives of Cheshire star Lauren Simon was given the boot from the house last week after losing out to Fern Britton and Louis Walsh in the public vote.
She was evicted from the house to a crowd full of cheers on Tuesday (March 12) and has since opened up about living with the group of famous faces.

During her stint on the ITV reality show, Lauren grew close to X Factor royalty Sharon Osbourne and Louis Walsh as well as Love Island’s Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and she said one of her co-stars really surprised her.
Speaking to Daily Star and other press, Lauren explained: “I was really surprised how much I loved Louis. He did say to me at the beginning to get off his bed. He said to me ‘I didn’t think I was going to like you but I adore you’ so I was really surprised at the connection me and Louis got.
“When I walked in, he’s the last person thought I’d be sleeping next to and waving to in the middle of the night and sitting in the bin with. He’s so fun honestly. He’s just dry but I was shocked when I watched the eviction episode, remember I’ve not seen it and I’ve not stopped so I’ve watched one hour, and I was so shocked when he was talking about Jedward calling them ‘vile’.
“He wasn’t like with me honestly. He’s got a dry sense of humour but not nasty. I think he has a connection with Ekin-Su. I think he could marry her he would, I think he fancies the pants off her. When I was crying my eyes out he was looking after me, he was saying ‘Remember it’s just a game’. He’s been in the business for years and he been booed and had nasty things said about him on The X Factor. Louis has a quiet life at home and is quite happy.
Jedward, aka John and Edward Grimes, were mentored by Louis during their time on The X Factor and have been left furious at their former boss’s harsh comments about them during his time on CBB. The twins have been supported by fans and their close pal Gemma Collins who have all hit back at Louis over his savage insults.
Opening up about what she won’t miss in the house, Louis revealed: “I won’t miss cleaning toilets and showers. My final words were ‘I’ll either be going out to a beautiful hotel and seeing my kids or I’ll be coming back and cleaning the toilets’. We all became human dishwashers. Colson [Smith] was a human hoover, he was on his hands and knees hoovering with his hands. He’s an amazing character even though I couldn’t remember his name. Every single one of them deserve to be there and they are all talented individuals. Apart from the fact it was like sleeping in Selfridges with the lights on and air condition, I had great time.”
Celebrity Big Brother airs Sunday to Friday on ITV1, STV and ITVX at 9pm
