Former Big Brother UK housemate Rhianna Collins has alleged that Rochelle Rackham made ‘racist’ comments inside the house that viewers haven’t heard.
During a post-eviction TikTok livestream, Rhianna described the alleged remarks as “racist comments” but stopped short of revealing what Rochelle said.
Meanwhile, The Sun reported on November 2 that an unnamed source had accused Rochelle of making a separate offensive remark about Chinese people during a conversation about takeaway.
The allegations follow earlier concerns raised by evicted housemate Philip Regan and contestant Omar El Mayer. ITV has outlined its conduct policies but hasn’t specifically confirmed the newly reported incident.
What did Rhianna say about Rochelle’s comments?
Following her October 30 eviction, Rhianna addressed questions about Rochelle during a TikTok livestream.
In a clip shared on X, she described the alleged remarks as: “I’m not going to lie, racist comments. That’s it.”
Rhianna also suggested there were things she didn’t want to discuss publicly because of other people’s wishes and production-related concerns.
So Rhianna confirmed on her TikTok live that Rochelle made racist comments.. why the fuck are @ITV @bbuk protecting a racist? We need answers #bbuk https://t.co/wausknSSc0

She stopped short of repeating the specific comments she was referring to.
Philip had previously expressed similar concerns during his eviction interview with AJ Odudu and Will Best.
He said Rochelle had said “something that I think wasn’t right,” adding that he didn’t want to repeat it.
Meanwhile, during the November 1 episode, Omar questioned why Rochelle was still receiving public support after saying what he described as “all those mad things.”
He later told fellow housemates Twinks and Samuel that Rochelle’s remarks had upset him, although he had decided to forgive her.
However, the episode didn’t establish exactly which comments Omar was referring to.
Has ITV responded to the alleged unaired comments?
The questions surrounding Rochelle intensified after The Sun published a new report on November 2.
The publication cited an unnamed source who alleged that Rochelle made a racist comment about Chinese people during a conversation about takeaway food.
According to the source, the exchange did not air. The Sun also chose not to publish the alleged offensive language.
It is unclear whether this is the same incident Rhianna, Philip and Omar were referring to.
The Sun said it contacted Big Brother bosses before publishing its report.
In response, a spokesperson said housemates receive respect and inclusion training before entering the house and that producers monitor their behaviour around the clock.
The spokesperson added that inappropriate conduct is addressed promptly, but did not specifically confirm or deny the newly reported incident.
Rochelle previously faced scrutiny after an offensive social media post from 2015 resurfaced in October. The Sun also reported a separate unaired exchange involving Rochelle and Lynx Noumey, which allegedly ended with an apology.
Rochelle remains inside the Big Brother house.
Big Brother UK airs on ITV2 and streams on ITVX.
