I won’t end friendship with axed Big Brother star George Gilbert over anti-semitic comments, says Cameron B

CAMERON B intends to stand by his Big Brother co-star George Gilbert who was thrown out over allegations of anti-semitic comments.

The 25-year-old left the house on Friday night days after former parish councillor George was told over his “unacceptable language and behaviour“.

The pair, who got along on the show, have not yet communicated since being on the outside.

However, Cameron B insists he’ll remain friendly with George 23, who made comments that could be interpreted as anti-semitic.

MMA coach Cameron told The Sun: “I wasn’t present for what occurred or what was said and all that jazz. I know he’s put something on his YouTube with regard to what he said. I’m not going to put words in his mouth.

“When he got kicked out it was just pretty surprising, really.”

“Was it the right decision to kick him out?”, ponders Cameron.

“It’s one of them where it’s a subject where you’ve got to be careful, you know. I guess it’s something where they have to. It was probably the right thing to do. They’d given him several warnings.

“Some people will find what he said very offensive, other people might not find it offensive, but again, you can’t really take the risk of running on with that with so many people watching.

“They’ve done what they thought was fair at the time.”

Big Brother did not air George’s comments that led to him being kicked off the show.

Cameron continued: “George is the only person I’ve not spoken to yet, but I’m presuming he’s very busy since being kicked out.

“I’d be friends with anyone, really. If you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice back. I don’t really think ‘I’m not going to be friends with this person’.

“Like I said in the house, I don’t care where you come from, who you are, if you’re a d**k, you’re a d**k. If you’re not a d**k, you’re not a d**k, you know.

“That’s how I treat everyone.

“I don’t know if he’s going to be at the end of series party or what. That remains to be seen, I guess.”

It is understood a number of other instances saw the housemate spoken to by Big Brother but were not been broadcast as a result of going against broadcasting standards.

George was spoken to on-screen over a homophobic hand gesture at housemate Sam, leaving him in tears.

He also clashed with Teja in a row over immigration and was accused of fat-shaming housemate Cameron after telling him to stop eating a biscuit. 

George also upset the girls in the house by saying they “all look and think the same” and left Jenny furious in a debate over addiction – telling her she shouldn’t give money to homeless people. 

Asked if he knew George had been repeatedly warned about his language, Cameron replied: “Not really. You only get so many warnings before a formal warning so he had said ‘they just told me off’ or ‘they gave me a warning’.

“They do say before you go in the house, there will only be so many warnings you can have before they have to make a decision they don’t want to make.”

Breaking his silence on being booted out, George said: “As a flag bearer of freedom of speech I never hesitate to discuss and question any topic regardless of how contentious it may be.

“Sadly, the boundaries of what is deemed offensive are subjective and I evidently went too far this time by crossing their line one too many times.

“It is a shame that specific debate could not be had and that it has had to end like this. Infamy, infamy, they’ve all got it in for me.”
