Big Brother housemates Lea and Sam had a heart to heart today when they spoke about their difficult childhoods, and shared stories on how they were bullied as children.

Ex Porn actress Lea had an exciting childhood but shared her regrets about how her life developed. “I was clubbing when I was 11,” she explained. “It’s all I know.”

“Sometimes you have to grow up quickly and get on with life,” she continued, with Glyn enquiring: “You feel like you missed out then – on a childhood?” “Yeah,” she replied, solemnly.

Sam then began to open up saying

“Because there’s been so much negativity in my life I’m very wary of people, I used to find it very hard to communicate with people. I was very shy at school.

“Then a couple of people took me under their wing and said ‘you’re a special person you should just be who you are.’

“I used to be bullied even by people younger than me.”

Lea pitched in: “I used to get bullied but by much older kids – like fifth years when I was a first year.”

Sam added: “I think it’s really unfair not to be accepted.” Lea said: “I wanted to be accepted but maybe that means you’ll still get bullied.”
