A HUGE Celebrity Big Brother twist will ‘split the housemates’ as Will Best teases a big shake-up.
Patsy Palmer, Chesney Hawkes and JoJo Siwa are among the all-star housemates in this year’s series.
Last night on Late and Live, co-host Will Best teased an upcoming shock twist for the famous faces.
Viewers watched as Will ventured backstage to the “task room”, which has been decked out as a pirate ship.
He told co-host AJ – and the audience watching at home: “Basically, what I think is going to happen is….
“Big Brother loves dividing and conquering.
“I think [the housemates] are going to be split up. I feel like this is going to be the Captain’s room, or the Captain’s area of the ship.
“Some people are going to be Captain, or Officers on the pirate ship. Other people are going to be doing menial tasks.
“It’s going to really drive a wedge between them. It’s your classic, textbook shopping task.”
Meanwhile, viewers also saw the series’ first eviction earlier in the evening.
Former Tory MP Sir Michael Fabricant became the first housemate to receive their marching orders.
The 74-year-old had been up against actors Mickey Rourke and Jack P. Shepherd in the public vote.

They were lovely people.”
Known for his eccentric fashion choices, he clutched a teddy bear as he left the Celebrity Big Brother house on Friday night.
During his brief stint in the house, Michael found himself embroiled in a race row with Trisha Goddard after she accused him of being ‘Islamophobic’.
The talk show host made the suggestion as Michael gave a speech to the housemates during a task.
Reacting to his eviction, one viewer wrote on X: “I’m gutted. Should’ve been Mickey R.
