The star quit the show on Saturday.

CBB viewers were mostly delighted at the news that Roxanne Pallett had quit the show on Saturday after Ben was evicted from the house.

The former Emmerdale star came under fire after she accused fellow housemate Ryan Thomas of punching her in the ribs last week, leading the studio audience to chant, “Get Roxy out! Get Roxy out!”, as Ben left the house.

Well, two days after her shock exit and Roxanne is due to return to the CBB house for her exit interview with host Emma Willis.

According to reports, CBB producers sat down with Roxanne before she quit the show to discuss taking the issue further and calling the police.

The actress decided not to get the police involved.

“Roxanne sat down with producers on Friday and they discussed all the possible courses of action she could talk,” the source told The Sun.

“She was still adamant Ryan had hit her and that it was a really serious incident, despite what everyone has seen on camera.

CBB takes its duty of care to the celebs incredibly seriously and they wanted to give her all the options.”

“They asked her if she wanted to report the incident to the police,” they added.

“She asked what would happen if she did and they said her and Ryan might have to leave the house and they might both forfeit their fees.

“To be fair to her, she said she didn’t want to go down that route. Then she left.”

Before appearing on CBB again tonight, Roxanne will speak for the first time publicly on The Jeremy Vine Show as per her contract.
