Big Brother has sparked another bullying row after fans called out Tom’s ‘awful’ treatment of Yinrun over the past few episodes.
Tom was left fuming after being put up for nomination by her and Matty – and later being evicted – and subsequently let his frustrations about her bubble to the surface.
He was left raging at Yinrun after her face-to-face nomination and yelled: ‘I don’t know why she is f***ing crying!’ at her after she became emotional thinking he had been evicted straight away.
Little did Yinrun and the other housemates know Tom, along with Jenkin and Jordan, were sent to Big Brother’s Spare Room for 48 hours while the public voted to save one of them.
While in the Spare Room awaiting his fate Tom continued to make unkind comments about Yinrun and suggested Henry throw water over her as part of a game.
Those on Twitter have had their say on his treatment of her, branding him ‘awful’ and a ‘bully’.
One said: ‘Yinrun being nothing but lovely about Tom whilst he’s sat in his stinking pit of a spare room for 36 hours slagging her off and doing everything in his power to make her life miserable. Pure evil #BBUK.’
Another said: ‘Tom is awful. They were forced to make a decision and Matty led the decision making when he said Olivia doesn’t make him uncomfortable. Proper bully vibes.’
A third wrote: ‘Tom’s weird little vendetta against Yinrun. I’ve had enough #BBUK.’
A fourth penned: ‘Tom and his vendetta against Yinrum is straight up internally bullying and if big brother allow it to happen without being punished then I’m gonna be fuming.’
Another said: ‘Jenkin and Tom being the BIGGEST Bullies towards Yinrun it’s actually disgusting and disturbing to watch. Especially Tom he has been saying VILE things about her throughout the ENTIRE day consistently like that man is SICK.’
Someone else wrote: ‘Tom accusing the others of being like something from a kids’ tv channel, yet he just said his highlight of the entire show was play fighting in the bedroom?.’
Tom and Jenkin were both evicted from the Big Brother House on Tuesday night’s dramatic episode while Jordan was saved by the public after the vote.
Jordan later rejoined the house leaving everyone in shock after they appeared in Big Brother’s Last Chance Jail House in the garden in front of the others.
It came after the trio were all sent to Big Brother’s spare room on Monday’s instalment after a fake eviction, with their fellow contestants believing they had all gone home.
While in the Jail House before they left they were all given the chance to say any final comments to the other housemates after watching them on camera for 48 hours.
Jenkin fumed: ‘My opinions have changed of you all. I feel like I’m watching a children’s programme. You all need to stay true to yourselves.’
Tom added: ‘It feels like you guys are losing yourselves a bit now. But I do genuinely wish you all the best!’
Jenkin, Jordan and Tom were fake ‘evicted’ on Monday’s show leaving their housemates in shock.
In a second of surprise events, Big Brother told them that they had not been evicted yet and instead, would live in the secret spare room.
Big Brother told the ‘evictees’ that ‘the public will vote for two of you to be evicted. Only one of you will survive. The housemate who survives will then return to the house.’
Whilst they await their fate from Big Brother’s secret spare room, they were told they could watch their fellow housemates.
Elsewhere on the episode Henry was forced to flirt with Matty as part of a secret task after he shared an intimate kiss with Jordan.
Big Brother has been teasing a ‘love triangle’ between Henry, Jordan and Matty throughout the series, and a secret task is set to make for a dramatic development.
Writer Henry and lawyer Jordan, both 25, shared a kiss in the steamy hot tub during Monday’s episode, followed by a secret bedroom smooch.
But in Tuesday’s episode, Henry had to flirt with Matty after being called into the Diary Room by Big Brother to be set a secret task.
Big Brother secretly told Henry: ‘Big Brother will speak to you through an earpiece and give you instructions that you must follow to pass today’s task.
‘Do this and avoid being undetected and you will win champagne and delicious caviar blinis for the whole house.’
Henry thought the tasks had been set for him by Big Brother, but he was unaware that they had actually been set by Jordan, Jenkin and Tom – who were in the Spare Room watching the housemates’ every moves.
After his steamy kiss with Jordan, Henry was then tasked with flirting with Matty in a dramatic development – but didn’t realise that Jordan has played a hand in the task.
Henry said to Matty: ‘When did you say your boyfriend is back? He’s a lucky boy.’
He also called Matty ‘very handsome’.
Henry was also tasked with spilling water over Yinrun and ignoring her, asking for a private dance lesson with Olivia and then critiquing it, and pouring Noky’s oat milk down the sink in front of her.
Big Brother continues Wednesday night at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
