fuming

YAZMIN Oukhellou has sparked fury from the family and friends of her late ex Jake McLean – and it’s all because of a new reality show.

The former Towie star was recently confirmed as part of the celebrity line-up for Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over.

The series will see the Strictly winner spending an overnight with various stars and, according to the programme’s announcement, getting to know “who they are behind the headlines”.

But sources close to Jake’s loved ones tell The Sun that his nearest and dearest are very concerned she’ll talk about him on the show, and potentially not in a flattering way.

My source said: “Jake’s family and friends are really worried about what Yazmin will say about him.

“There is no love lost between Yaz and his family – they aren’t fans of hers at all, and didn’t invite her to his funeral. They don’t like her talking about their son.”

Yazmin, 32, and Jake had an on-off relationship, first dating in 2019 before splitting.

Then they got back together in May 2021 until July 2022, when Jake was tragically killed in a car accident in Bodrum, Turkey.

Yazmin was in the car with Jake when it veered off a cliff, but managed to survive the horror ordeal.

My source added: “Obviously it is a big part of Yazmin’s life story and a trauma she has been through, so it will definitely come up on the show.

“But Jake’s family hate when she speaks about him – they just don’t like Yaz and didn’t think she was good for Jake.

“Their relationship was volatile at times, and there was speculation she and Jake had rowed in the moments leading up to the car accident, but Yazmin has always firmly denied that.

“Either way though, they didn’t like her when Jake was alive and they don’t like her since he has died.

“They don’t think it’s fair to discuss that when Jake isn’t here to give his side of the story.”

Not helping matters is the fact that, when Yaz was announced as part of the show line-up, the official synopsis for the series mentioned Jake.

Yaz’s bio on the show’s website read: “Yazmin left The Only Way Is Essex following the tragic death of her partner, Jake McLean, and embarked on a new life as an influencer.

“Yazmin has faced criticism for publicising her cosmetic surgery procedures, and Stacey discovers the challenges she faces as she reinvents herself.”

And in a quote from Stacey, she promises some “very honest conversations”, something that has only made the McLean family more anxious.

The source added: “They don’t want Jake’s story told by Yaz.

“They feel like she shouldn’t talk about him out of respect, especially if she is going to paint him in a light that they don’t recognise.”

Jake first became known when he started dating Lauren Goodger in 2012.

The pair were on-and-off for four years, but in 2019 he was linked romantically to Towie’s Yazmin.

Yazmin later left Essex and moved to Dubai to be with Jake and they confirmed their relationship with loved-up snaps from a romantic night out in Dubai.

But sadly their love story was cut short by the car crash in Turkey.

Jake was behind the wheel of the Mercedes E-Class when it left the road and plunged down a ravine.

Emergency crews were scrambled to the scene but sadly Jake couldn’t be saved.

Passenger Yazmin was badly hurt in the smash, but managed to crawl from the wreckage.

It later found that Jake was nearly three times the drink-drive limit and on cocaine when he died in the horror crash.

A post mortem in Turkey after the 4.30am accident in Bodrum last July showed the booze and drugs in Jake’s system.

Coroner Dr Shirley Radcliffe told the inquest in Walthamstow, East London, last week: “The post ­mortem found no natural disease, as you would expect in a young man of 33. The cause of death was skull fractures and brain damage.”

Lauren Goodger, who dated Jake for four years, attended his funeral in 2023.

But Yamzin was banned by his family over allegations that a row between the pair had played a part in the crash.

Yazmin’s representatives have been contacted for comment.

Big Brother fans were floored by what one housemate said as they gave their honest opinion

Some Big Brother viewers were left stunned over one star’s comments.

Fans of ITV’s reality series are furious after one housemate was asked for their honest opinion of a fellow contestant. Their comment has been branded as ‘insane’.

Tonight’s episode (October 25) saw the aftermath of Harry’s eviction on Friday. It also saw the house be rattled not just by the result but by what they believe they heard shouted and cheered by the crowd who attended the live show.

The next day, the group were gathered on the sofas for the latest task. Big Brother told them: “Housemates, after six weeks together, you could say you’ve become family. A big, dysfunctional family. To help put the ‘fun’ back in dysfunctional, today, Big Brother will be running family therapy sessions. If you complete the therapy sessions to Big Brother’s satisfaction, you will receive a special reward.”

Later, the housemates were called once again for the final part of the challenge, which was called Honesty Therapy. Each housemate was forced to pick two others. Their first pick must then give their brutally honest opinion about the other.

While previous scenes during the episode saw some housemates rebuild their relationships, including Rochelle and Twinks, Twinks and Omar, Omar and Rhianna and Yasmin and Sam, the task threatened to ruin it all.

Sam went first and said: I think one person here is very right to the point and that would be Philip. So Philip, I’d like to hear your honest opinion about Yasmin.”

Twinks commented: “This is savage, isn’t it.” Philip then stood up and partially tongue in cheek commented: “Well Yasmin, you get on my nerves sometimes, girl…I’m up to here with you. You’re always trying to fix people’s problems, fix your f****** own before anyone else’s and stop getting in people’s business, bone collecting.”

However, Rochelle was asked to give her view on Catrin. Rochelle quipped: “You’re a pig.” Even some housemates were taken aback as Philip muttered: “You can’t say that.”

Rochelle tried to expand on her comments and explained: “Sometimes you’re greedy with the chocolates. Just the sweets.”

Catrin did not seem sure how to respond but she was then asked to share her view on Rochelle in turn. She said: “Sometimes I can’t finish my sentence. Maybe don’t cut across people. Sometimes it’d be nice to compliment people rather than say the worst things.”

Fans watching along at home were taken aback by Rochelle’s comments. They were furious that she would say such a thing and one person posted on social media: “Rochelle calling Cat a pig was out of order especially in front of everybody.”

Another added: “How can Rochelle actually look Catrin in the face & say ‘You’re a pig’? So rude. Doesn’t she steal all the salt and vinegar crisps every week and stash them in her drawer.”

Someone else commented: “Rochelle just went on Cat and called her a pig. Those tears can stay where they were.”

While one person replied: “Calling someone a pig is so outrageous!” One fan put forward: “You’re a pig is actually insane actually but am I shocked, no! It’s Rochelle we are talking about.”

Big Brother continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

KATIE PRICE has been left furious after she was snubbed by the Pride of Britain Awards as she admitted she “didn’t get an invite.”

The former glamour model’s kids, Princess, 19, and Junior Andre, attended the Awards on Monday and were seen posing up on the red carpet.

But, Katie didn’t quite make the cut.

While discussing their booming careers on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, she confessed they were invited to the prestigious event – but she wasn’t.

Katie’s sister, Sophie, asked her what career advice she would give the kids, who she shares with Mysterious Girl singer Peter Andre.

“Well I don’t feel I need to give them any advice because they’re doing fantastic, because they’ve grown up with it,” said Katie.

“They know what it’s all about. They’re not media trained. They’ve literally lived and grieved it. So they know what they’re doing.

“I’m very, very lucky and they’re lucky. They’re media savvy. They’re bot stupid. They’re naturally trained.”

Katie added: “I’m annoyed I didn’t get an invite to the Pride of Britain did I? Again.”

“No but like you never do,” pointed out Sophie.

Swiftly moving on, Sophie and Katie gave their thoughts on Princess and Junior taking part in Celebrity Race Across The World.

They told how one of their family members “took the p*ss” out of Junior, 21, for his map reading skills.

This week, Katie, 48, put her wedding ring back on after dumping her ex-husband Lee Andrews via WhatsApp.

In a shock move, the reality star was seen rocking the huge sparkler on her wedding finger while out and about in Sussex.

Sparking rumours that she’s back with Lee, she was seen emerging from a nail salon after a pampering session with the ring firmly back on her finger.

This comes after she refollowed him on Instagram despite slamming him on social media.

LUCY Mecklenburgh was left “fuming” after being forced to travel home barefoot when she lost her shoe between the train and platform.

The TOWIE alum, 35, took to her Instagram Stories to moan about the mishap following a night with fiance Ryan Thomas.

The mum of two was seen covering her mouth with her hand in shock as she stood in the vestibule wearing only one item of black loafer footwear.

Lucy looked glam in an oversized leather jacket and jeans, but her right foot was exposed as Ryan could be heard shouting: “Oh my god,” in the background.

In his social media caption he wrote: “Lucy lost her shoe getting on the train”.

She then added in her re-post: “Fuming I love these shoes”.

Former Coronation Street star Ryan then shared a video showing Lucy laughing as she saw the funny side of her situation.

She sat perched on a train seat and giggled away as he filmed her reaction.

The blunder came after the couple spent a cosy date day in the capital.

They had a plush dinner at the Covent Garden Hotel complete with fizz and two courses.

Earlier this month, The Sun reported how they had listed their Cheshire mansion for sale for £1.25million.

Soap star Ryan first purchased the Edwardian property near Stockport for just £675,000 in 2021 – and the engaged couple split their time between their Manchester and Essex pads.

But just five years on and the sprawling mansion has nearly doubled in value.

The pair have spent thousands of pounds renovating the property and have modernised the kitchen, living room, bedrooms.

But he might not see any of the profits.

Last October, The Sun revealed that Ryan was down to his last £1 in his company’s bank account.

The actor runs a media firm called R James Thomas Ltd which takes in cash from his TV and endorsement work.
