‘She’s damaged her career’: David Gest has harsh words for Stephanie

He left the Big Brother house last week due to an illness, but now in full health, David Gest is weighing in on what he thinks of the remaining housemates.

Appearing on Big Brother's Bit On The Side, David said that Stephanie's flirtatious antics will do no-good for her, and it may have indeed, damaged her career.

"She could have rectified her problems with her career but she's made it worse," he said, speaking about how she was sacked from Hollyoaks.

Mr Gest then added, "I told Jeremy he's worth more. It's totally wrong."

David also let us in on why he had to leave the house, revealing that he had "strep throat, tonsillitis and a fever."

"I am on the mend now. I didn't want to go. Crazy as it was, I loved being the father figure, the nutcase, the advisor."
