Chef Rex threatens to quit Big Brother unless housemate start getting along

Chef Rex Newmark has warned his housemates he will leave the Big Brother house if they do not learn to get along.

The 24-year-old was at the centre of a cider-fuelled row on Thursday night which escalated after Jennifer Clark complained he defaced her portrait of Stuart Pilkington.

He argued with Stuart and Dale Howard after apparently smudging Jennifer's artwork.

The argument resulted in the removal of Dennis McHugh and further rows in the house over the weekend.

But Rex has warned he is not putting up with anymore bitching or backstabbing from his fellow housemates.

He confided in pals Mohamed Mohamed, Rachel Rice, Kathreya Kasisopa and Darnell Swallow that he was considering leaving the compound.

He said: 'If something doesn't change soon, something big, I can't take it any more.

'I'm just not bothered any more.'

Rex admitted he didn't want to walk from the house, but was not willing to row with his housemates every day for the next 10 weeks.

He said: 'I could go into any local pub in London for that.'

Meanwhile, there were more moans to come as Bex and Luke complained about their 'boring' fellow housemates.

Bex whined that Rachel was fake and too happy.

Luke told her: 'Oh my god. Some people are in the house, some people are in the street, and some are sitting on the fence.'

Bored Bex agreed, adding: 'There's no one to have fun with,' she complained.' Everyone's just gone.'
