He was a true gent

Ryan Thomas may have gone through hell during his 26-day stint in the Celebrity Big Brother house, but he's come out of it the winner of the show and has the support of the public. During his time in the house, fellow housemate Roxanne Pallett falsely accused him of hitting her "like a punchbag" before quitting the show.
Former Coronation Street star Ryan proved himself to be a true gentleman on the show, and was crowned the winner in Monday night's finale (10th Sept) ahead of Kirstie Alley and Dan Osborne.
Ryan has now appeared on Jeremy Vine's talk show - the same show that Roxanne made her first now-infamous apology on - to discuss the events that occurred in the house, and fought back tears after being shown the video of the debacle.
He said, "You don't have any idea what's going on just in general, the whole show... Roxanne is just a tiny bit of my journey. In that situation you want your friends and loved ones but the whole process, it's tedious."

Lee Ryan and Jasmine Waltz/Casey Bachelor
The 2014 series of CBB brought with it one of the cringiest love-triangles to date, between Blue singer Lee Ryan, Jasmine Waltz and Casey Bachelor.
Lee started off by getting to know Casey, before declaring his 'love' for Jasmine. But when the America model was evicted, Lee jumped back into bed with Casey (leaving viewers fuming).
CBB bosses then created MASSIVE drama when they put Jasmine back into the house, resulting in a huge argument between the pair.
Despite this, Lee and Jasmine started a relationship and even appeared on the front of a magazine, but things didn't last long when Jasmine accused him of 'cheating'.

Stephanie Davis and Jeremy McConnell
Perhaps the most memorable CBB romance EVER!
Despite entering the house with a boyfriend (Sam Reece), Hollyoaks star Stephanie Davis took an instant liking to Jeremy McConnell, with the pair leaving the house as an official couple.
They endured one of the most on/off relationships in the showbiz land, before welcoming their son Caben-Albi George into the world in January 2017 (with Jez doing a paternity test on live TV).
Things later took a sour turn, with a number of legal proceedings between the pair. They have now split for good, with Stephanie set to return to Hollyoaks in the coming months.
Sarah Harding and Chad Johnson
Nobody saw a romance between former Girls Aloud star Sarah Harding and The Bachelorette's Chad Johnson coming in 2017.
But after Chad and Sarah racked up a cute friendship, things soon turned into a romance in the house, with the pair getting cosy on a number of occasions.
They remained together for a number of weeks after the show ended, but with Chad living in America and Sarah in the UK, things didn't work out.
Chantelle Houghton and Preston
Ordinary Boys singer Preston immediately fell for 'fake celebrity' Chantelle Houghton in 2006.
Just three months after leaving the CBB house, the pair announced their engagement, with the wedding taking place the following August.
However, in June 2007 (less than a year later) Chantelle and Preson got a divorce, but the pair have remained friends!
Stephen Bear and Chloe Khan
Despite dating Lillie Lexie Greg at the time, Bear didn't let that stop him getting cosy with Chloe Khan during the 2016 series, with their fellow housemates complaining at their raunchy behaviour.
Although Lillie entered the house to confront Bear, that didn't stop Chloe waiting for him when he left the house as champion.
Despite their whirlwind romance, things soon ended between the pair, with Bear now dating model Ellie O'Donnell.
Basshunter and Katia Ivanova
Katia actually had a boyfriend on the outside, but her head was turned when she met Basshunter, real name Jonas Erik Altberg.
Despite the pair enjoying some time together in the house, Katia ended things on the show, calling the DJ 'too clingy'.
Marnie Simpson and Lewis Bloor
Geordie Shore's Marnie Simpson and TOWIE's Lewis Bloor had an instant connection when they appeared on the 2016 series of CBB.
Things seemed to be going well for the couple when they left the house, with the pair even moving in together. But it all ended in tears when it was revealed that Lewis had cheated on Marnie twice!
Megan McKenna and Scotty T
Despite Stephanie and Jeremy's relationship taking up more or less the whole series in 2016, TOWIE's Megan McKenna and Geordie Shore's Scotty T also got VERY cosy.
The reality pair enjoyed a number of steamy kisses in the house, but things didn't go to plan on the outside, with Scotty T blaming distance as the reason for their split.
Kerry Katona and Lucien Laviscount
Another CBB romance NOBODY saw coming was between Kerry Katona and former Waterloo Road star Lucien Laviscount in 2011.
Kerry and Lucien seemed very loved-up in the house, sharing a number of cuddles and kisses, but things didn't work out due to their 11-year age difference on the outside world.
Edele Lynch and George Gilbey
After originally trying it on with The Hills star Stephanie Pratt, Gogglebox's George Gilbey ended up in a relationship with B*Witched singer Edele Lynch.
The pair even ended up going on a caravan holiday together, but things quickly ended and George now has a child with another woman.
Lee Ryan and Jasmine Waltz/Casey Bachelor
The 2014 series of CBB brought with it one of the cringiest love-triangles to date, between Blue singer Lee Ryan, Jasmine Waltz and Casey Bachelor.
Lee started off by getting to know Casey, before declaring his 'love' for Jasmine. But when the America model was evicted, Lee jumped back into bed with Casey (leaving viewers fuming).

Despite this, Lee and Jasmine started a relationship and even appeared on the front of a magazine, but things didn't last long when Jasmine accused him of 'cheating'.
When questioned over whether he could forgive Roxanne, Ryan admitted, "I think Roxanne has been through a lot. CBB makes headlines and sometimes for the wrong reasons. It's time we look forward. She's suffering enough. I don't want to be part of it."
Jeremy then asked whether Ryan might be able to meet up with Roxanne so she could apologise face-to-face, to which he said, "It's something looking forward that I don't want to dwell on.
"I don't want to think of the experience in a negative way. Its not to say I don't want to see her but no offence to Roxanne but i have a daughter and I don't want to think about that now."
Well... That's fair enough!
Ryan took to Twitter earlier today to share his first posts since leaving the house, gushing over his girlfriend Lucy Mecklenburgh, who supported him through 'Punchgate.'
