“I’m going home. I need out. I need to go.”

Celebrity Big Brother has released a teaser for tonight’s episode – which is set to include Roxanne Pallett’s sudden departure.

The former Emmerdale actress left the reality TV series after an incident between her and fellow housemate, Ryan Thomas. She claimed that he had punched her “like a boxer would punch a bag” during a play-fight.

Ryan received a formal warning from Big Brother following the incident.

It was announced on Saturday morning that Roxanne had decided to leave the Celebrity Big Brother house, and it looks like viewers will see the moment she comes to the decision tonight.

The actress can be seen breaking down in tears as she sits in the Diary Room alone.

The trailer also shows Roxanne hearing the chants of ‘Get Roxy out’ as Ben Jardine was evicted last night, before she tearfully tells the camera:

“I’m going home. I need out. I need to go”

Following her decision to leave the show, a representative for the actress released a statement on her behalf.

The spokesperson told The Sun:

“Roxanne decided to leave the CBB house late last night after deliberating for two days with some sensitive issues she felt strongly about.

“She has now been reunited with her fiancé and family and thanks everyone for their support during her time in the show.”
