In a shocking revelation from the Big Brother house, contestant Jenny Baird reportedly resorted to bathing in toilet cleaner in a bid to remove her fake tan. The Northern Irish reality star, who finished in third place in the show's 2025 final, is said to have used the harsh cleaning product on multiple occasions during her seven-week stay.
The Dangerous Beauty Regimen
According to a source who spoke to The Sun, 20-year-old Jenny Baird was dedicated to maintaining her glamorous appearance, which included a regime of fake tan and heatless curls. However, her methods for tan removal were far from conventional. 'She'd tip it in with the water cos she wanted the bleach to scrub off her tan before reapplying,' the source revealed. This dangerous practice, which involved using corrosive toilet cleaner as a bath additive, was never broadcast to the public.
Production Intervention and Safety Measures
Once the show's producers became aware of Jenny's actions, they swiftly stepped in to prevent any potential harm. In response, all cleaning products in the house were replaced with eco-friendly and non-corrosive alternatives. This move ensured the safety and well-being of all housemates for the remainder of the series, which concluded with its live final on Friday evening outside the house in West London.
A New Champion is Crowned
The finale, presented by hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best, saw Richard Storry, a 60-year-old composer from London, crowned the winner of Big Brother 2025. Richard, who was a late addition to the house, was visibly stunned to learn he had received the most votes from the public. His victory makes him the show's oldest winner in its 25-year history.
The final rankings were as follows:
- First Place: Richard Storry
- Second Place: Elsa
- Third Place: Jenny Baird
- Fourth Place: Cameron
- Fifth Place: Emily
- Sixth Place: Tate
ITV also used the finale to officially confirm that Big Brother will return for another series in 2026, with applications now open for potential housemates. The announcement was somewhat overshadowed by the controversy surrounding former housemate George, who was disinvited from the final after being removed from the house for what producers cited as 'repeated warnings' about his 'offensive behaviour'.
