Celebrity Big Brother star Chris Hughes emotionally compared JoJo Siwa to his ex Jesy Nelson as he reflected on their close friendship.

The former Love Island star, 32, was the first star to be evicted from the house during the grand final and hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best wasted no time on grilling him on his bond with the singer, 21.

And during his exit chat, Chris compared JoJo to Jesy as he chatted about their closeness, with the pair having raised eyebrows with their raise eyebrows 'flirty' friendship. 

He said: 'JoJo was like a pure rock to me. She was someone that I could have fun with. That to me was a beautiful friendship. She said to me last night you're someone in my life I didn't know I needed.' 

Breaking down in tears, Chris continued: 'She reminded me a lot of... The thing that fascinates me the most about her is not the things she's done, it's what she's been through when she was a teenager and that's similar to what my ex-girlfriend went through.

'Seeing how they are both similarly as... in the respect that she's come through a lot and she's just a purely nice person. The similarity is in the personality. How nice they are, how loving they are and how caring they are.'

The Coronation Street star, 37, couldn't contain his shock as hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best revealed that he received the most votes from the public.

Walking away victorious, Jack becomes the reigning champion, joining ITV’s cohort of winners including fellow Celebrity Big Brother winner David Potts, and Big Brother winners Jordan Sangha and Ali Bromley.

In his first exclusive interview, Jack told AJ and Will that he is 'blown away' by his victory and 'didn't expect it' - instead he had JoJo Siwa 'nailed' as the winner.

Talking about how he went from the most-nominated housemate to the winner, the soap star admitted: 'I figured that I might annoy a few people and they might not know how to work me out but I guess I was liked by the end.'

But before Jack's interview, Drag Race star Danny exited the iconic house after being revealed as the second-place star.
