Sophie Anderton has blasted producers of ‘Love Island’ for exaggerating her tantrums on the show.

She moaned to the Sunday Mirror Celebs magazine: “I promise I wasn’t crying as much as they made out. They did a montage of me crying – it was amusing but not nice for my family. It wasn’t just me. Everyone was crying in there.”

Sophie who is currently starring in Cirque De Celebrite on Sky One – insists she has sorted out many of her problems since leaving the island and has never been happier.

She said: “I’m in such a good place right now. I’m probably the calmest and most mellow I’ve been in years. All the time I spent on therapy, for the first time, I feel my real personality is able to come through.”

Big Brother housemate and contestant of Cirque De Celebrite, Grace Adam Short, has revealed some of her wedding plans to the Sunday Mirror this week.

“I want my big day to be classy. Not like Jordan and Peter Andre’s,” she stated. “We’ll do it somewhere between London and Liverpool, probably a stately home. He’ll move in with me in March and then we’ll plan it.”

The Sun Reports

BIG Brother’s Grace turned circus star and dazzled viewers last night as she balanced on top of a giant ball.

The dancer, 21, was in Sky One’s Cirque De Celebrite with a string of celebs trying out Big Top skills, including Love Island’s Sophie Anderton and model Emma B.

Grace had hoped she wouldn’t be picked for the ball stunt — but she quickly mastered it.

The celebs trained for more than 40 hours a week for the show.

The Sun reports:

FURIOUS Mark Bright flipped after being voted off Sky One’s circus reality show Cirque De Celebrite.

The ex-soccer star, now a BBC pundit, threatened to shut a dressing room door in a cameraman’s face unless he stopped filming.

Bright allegedly said: “I’ll give you one second to get out of that door, one second . . . I swear to you, I’ll smash the door in your face�.

An onlooker said: “He was livid he’d been kicked off so early. The cameraman got very scared and pulled his camera away quickly.�

Insiders said Bright, who performed a ball balance routine, was also angry his six-year-old son Isiah had been upset by seeing him axed.

Earlier host Ruby Wax was red-faced when X Factor’s Simon Cowell refused to be interviewed on air.

He was there to support old flame Sinitta, one of the celebs trying circus tricks in the show.
