Carlisle actress Roxanne Pallett has been forgiven for her actions in the Big Brother house by Ryan Thomas' brother Scott.

The Love Island star has opened up to the Daily Star about the controversy in the house this summer.

During her time in the house the ex-Emmerdale star claimed Ryan was physically violent towards her and said she'd been 'punched'.

However, the Corrie star was seen by most viewers as playfully shadow boxing with her in the kitchen.

Ryan went on to win the show.

Scott told the national newspaper: "It's all in the past now, Ryan is riding that Big Brother wave as a champion.

“What done is done now there are no hard feelings.

"Listen, we all know what he dealt with in there, we all stuck together as a family.

"He really handled it well, what done is done now there are no hard feelings."

Speaking to the show's host Emma Willis after she walked out of the house, Roxanne, 35, said: "I'm the most hated girl in Britain right now.

"It's the title I feel everyone’s giving me at the moment and all I can do is own it, accept it, and apologise.
