Big Brother non-housemate Saffia Corden has only been in the BB house a few hours and has already been reduced to tears.

The 27 year old mother of two sobbed last night as she spoke of how much she missed her children.

Saffia cried: “I feel really guilty being here and leaving my kids.”

She added: “Millie’s seven and Albie’s not one, he’s tiny, that’s the hard part.”

Now I’m not a harsh person and I am a mum myself, however this all seems a little contrived to me. Saffia had only just entered the house and must have realised how it would feel to leave her kids. If she can’t bear to be away from them then why doesn’t she just leave?
