The contestant who left the Celebrity Big Brother house last night (Wednesday March 20) was… not revealed to viewers.
But eagle-eyed viewers have spotted a huge clue over who left the CBB house via the back door…
Last night, disappointed fans fumed on social media after it was confirmed the seventh housemate to leave the 2024 ITV run just two days ahead of the series finale would be kept under wraps for another day.
On Tuesday (March 19) evening Marisha Wallace and Zeze Millz exited the series, leaving six stars vying for the big reality show win.
What happened to the CBB ‘back door’ eviction?
CBB hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best also explained, after Marisha and Zeze were sent packing, that the vote to win had begun.
However, it was also noted the winners’ poll would be ‘frozen’ at 6pm on Wednesday. And that the CBB contestant with the fewest votes would ‘leave by the back door’.
But during the last few minutes of Wednesday’s show, viewers began to twig they might not find out who that is.
And it wasn’t shared with fans that they won’t be able to do so until Thursday’s programme even after the credits rolled. Instead, AJ made an unpopular announcement at the start of the CBB ITV2 show, Late and Live.
How viewers reacted to Celebrity Big Brother ‘eviction’
Fans were unimpressed at how the non-reveal went down.
“Wait, they’re NOT using their live show to do the back door eviction and an interview? What are these producers on? #CBBUK,” one viewer complained.
Additionally, someone else moaned online: “Why can’t they reveal who left on Late and Live? They should do a back door exit and interview them? #CBBUK.”

Furthermore, a third, using a wailing emoji in their post, asked: “In the Late and Live ad AJ just said we’ll be speculating who’s left. Why can’t they just say?!”
We need to know who got evicted through the back door.
Meanwhile another person demanded: “We need to know who got evicted through the back door. Tonight @bbuk #CBBUK #CBBUK.”
And a fifth unhappy social media user wrote: “Are they going to show live feed tonight so people know who’s been evicted? Ugh I just hate back door/not live evictions #CBBUK.”
AJ ‘reveals’ who left
However, eagle-eyed viewers reckon they have worked out who left via the back door. It’ll be shown on the main Celebrity Big Brother show tonight (March 21), ITV has confirmed.
However, those watching Late and Live last night reckon a certain Corrie star is getting the boot…
As Marisha discussed which housemate might be evicted she said: “I think if his [Colson’s] family weren’t standing out here when he came out, he would be hurt. Colson would be very upset.”
However, as Marisha spoke, the camera then flipped to AJ who pulled a pained expression at the mention of the actor’s name, suggesting she knows it is him leaving the show.
Sharing the clip, the viewer wrote: “Did anyone catch this on L&L? Marisha saying Colson would handle a back door eviction the worst and AJ’s facial expression… #CBBUK.”
“As if they told AJ who’s been evicted before she’s on live TV for an hour with prime opportunity to slip up,” laughed another.
A third said: “Oh no, I want him to win!”
Find out who goes tonight (March 21) on ITV1 at 9pm.
