Marco Pierre White Jnr is charged with driving while high on cocaine

Controversial Big Brother housemate Marco Pierre White Jnr has been charged with driving while high on cocaine.

The 21-year-old model, and son of the celebrity chef, faces being evicted from the reality TV show this evening.

His encounters with Laura Carter have already raised serious eyebrows this week – not least as he is currently engaged to fashion designer, Kim Melville-Smith.

According to The Sun, he now faces having to attend a hearing at a court in London next week.

Mail Online reports that Marco Pierre was stopped by police in Hammersmith, west London, on 20 April with more than 200 microgrammes of cocaine in his blood while driving a grey BMW X5.
