We might only be on day three of the 2026 series, but according to the Big Brother account on X, ‘tensions are running high’. In the new clip, we see several clashes, including arguments involving Yasmin and Philip. Yet arguably the biggest row that’s brewing is between Charlotte, who became a quadruple amputee aged three after contracting meningitis, and Rochelle. Charlotte seemed shocked by the exchange (Picture: ITV/ Big Brother ‘I feel really ashamed. I have got a bit of a fear,’ she continues while Charlotte asks what she’s afraid of. ‘Just like, no arms,’ Rochelle replies. ‘When I saw you, I was like, “Oh my god,’ and I feel so ashamed because now I don’t even look at it.’ We don’t see how Charlotte responds to this, as the clip then cuts to her discussing the run-in with the other younger housemates. As she explains what happened, Chelsey responds: ‘I think [Rochelle] needs to learn to shut her mouth.’ Rochelle has found herself in hot water (Picture: ITV) Meanwhile, Rhianna adds: ‘I think it’s best if I say something; I’m just gonna be like: “I don’t think you should have said that.”‘ The clip doesn’t show the fallout from Rihanna and Rochelle’s looming confrontation, but people are taking the incident very seriously already. ‘What [Rochelle] said to Charlotte is just not something you should say at all out loud, let alone to that person,’ said @SarahFreer. ‘Rochelle is so wrong for that,’ agreed @gaalindas. ‘She’s officially lost me, I fear.’ Charlotte lost her limbs when she was three years old (Picture: Shutterstock for Big Brother) @Rishi_Persaud added: ‘Just totally disgusting from Rochelle and alienating to someone with a disability like Charlotte. She is a prime example of a Karen, completely oblivious to her prejudices.’ Of course, some viewers are already excited by the drama. ‘We’ve waited YEARS for this sort of Big Brother,’ commented @itsbbplus, while @hottiedivine_ added: ‘Real British TV is back lol.’ The 18-year-old contracted meningitis, leading to her limbs being amputated (Picture: Shutterstock for Big Brother) Charlotte applied to Big Brother to get out of her comfort zone. ‘I’ve just always wanted to go on it,’ she explained during her introduction video. ‘Obviously, as a quadruple amputee, people are surprised at anything I do, even normal things like cooking, doing my makeup, getting dressed, stuff like that. ‘And obviously they’re going to be watching me 24 hours a day, so they’re going to see me do all those things. They’re probably going to be surprised at the most normal things for me; those are going to be the most shocking for everybody watching.’ Deals of the Day Topman’s new-season collection has arrived and prices start at just £10 An Instagram mattress left me with back pain – this one completely changed my mind Book Val d'Isère, Val Thorens and Tignes for less in Club Med's ski sale Save 25% on red light therapy masks, sauna blankets and sleep gadgets in Bon Charge sale The viral LED face mask with over 350 lights that's currently discounted by £100 Big Brother continues on ITV2 at 9pm.
