As we reported earlier, Simon Cowell’s former squeeze Jasmine Lennard is proving herself to be a formidable housemate in as much as – as she promised in her pre-show VT – she doesn’t shy away from bitching and stirring…

And yesterday, she decided to poke with a stick the somewhat sensitive issue of the fact that she believes her fellow housemate Rhian Sugden had an affair with Jasmine’s then boyfriend, footballer Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Daily Star reports that Jasmine said to Rhian, “Ronaldo told me about you. He told me he met you and f***ed you in a hotel in Kensington.

“He asked me to phone you but I couldn’t do it so hung up.”

But Rhian denied ever having even met Crisitano, adding that they’d only ever spoken on the phone…

She also told Jasmine that he had “pestered” her so much, she had to change her number.

She said, “I’ve changed my number six times cos of him.”

The paper adds, “Jasmine then challenged Rhian over her sex-text fling with married TV host Vernon Kay, 38.”

Of that, Rhian said, “We were just friends. We texted a lot but I never sent a sex text.

“I could’ve made a fortune from selling my side of the story.”

However, Jasmine told her, “You shouldn’t have carried on when you knew that he was attracted to you.”

Erm, hello? Do the words ‘pot’ and ‘kettle’ mean anything to you Jasmine?

She of course had her affair with Simon Cowell while he was living with – as though married – Terri Seymour.

Yikes.
