Jonathan Cheban says he quit Big Brother because David Bowie's death was 'turning into a little bit of a joke'. Kim Kardashian's best friend walked out of the house, shortly after the confusion over Bowie's death.
Angie Bowie was told the sad news about her ex-husband in private, but when she told Tiffany Pollard that "David's dead" - Tiffany thought she was referring to David Gest - who was asleep in another room.
Speaking to Digital Spy, Jonathan said: '' The house went from being fun to turning into a negative energy, and the whole David Bowie thing was too intense for me. I knew that would be such a big public situation and I think it turned into a little bit of a joke.
Earlier Jonathan told Lorraine that he was sure 'Tiffany didn't know who David Bowie was'.
Big Brother is back tonight from 9PM.
