She added: "I’m blown away that he stitched my initials on a cloth. That’s so sweet."

Chanelle: We couldn’t go all the way - Aug 3 2007
Big Brother’s Chanelle has apparently denied she and fellow housemate Ziggy had sex on national TV - but admitted that they found it hard to control themselves.

The 19-year-old, who left the show of her own accord, told the Daily Star: "We tried hard to control things. But after kissing and cuddling it was difficult to stop.

"We did get a bit carried away but we couldn’t go all the way."

The Wakefield Posh wannabe insists her feelings for the hunky model were genuine.

"When Ziggy walked through the door on that first Friday night, I thought Big Brother had sent in a stripper for a girlie night in.

"When he had to do that date task to get to know us all, the sparks started to fly between us. There was clearly something between us very early on and I was very excited."

She also added that she would still like to remain friends.

"I don’t think we can ever be a couple again and I don’t want to be. I am happy being single.

"But I don’t bear any grudges towards him."


Chanelle denies BB sex session - July 31 2007
Chanelle has appeared on Big Brother’s Little Brother and insisted that she had not had sex with fellow housemate Ziggy.

"No. Sorry to disappoint you. No. My mum would have kicked me out of my house," she told host Dermot O’Leary.

Fervent speculation had surrounded the Big Brother couple and Ladbrokes and Paddy Power paid out £70,000 between them to punters who predicted a "Big Brother bonk".

Chanelle left the Big Brother house on Monday after her split with former boyband member Ziggy.

Asked whether she thought she could have gone on to win the contest had she stayed in the house, she said: "I don’t think so. I couldn’t live there with Ziggy anymore."

She said that the dissolution of her relationship was not the only reason that she decided to walk out of the house.

"I don’t think Carole was too happy with me either and I was just missing home a lot."

The 19-year-old from Wakefield looked shocked and embarrassed as she was shown footage of her tempestuous on-screen relationship.

"I mean I thought I were quite stable at times," she remarked of the footage of the couples’ many arguments.

Asked what she now thought of Ziggy, she said she felt the same as she had done before leaving.

"Not that pleased... with him, but with me as well."

But she added: "I don’t regret the relationship because he is actually quite nice."

She said that she still cares about Ziggy "a little", but said she did not think he cares about her.

"I don’t think he ever did."

The Victoria Beckham wannabe had expressed cynicism about his motives throughout their relationship and said that she believed that his behaviour was modified because of his desire to win the contest.

She was shown footage of Ziggy in the Diary Room after she had left.

"I miss her I really do and I didn’t think I would," he said.

"I said some things today which I really regret and I probably didn’t get a chance to apologise and that is going to be hard to deal with."
