Jeremy McConnell has been blasted for being disrespectful after pretending to be the late David Gest in a Snapchat video.
Irish model Jeremy and producer David appeared together in the Celebrity Big Brother house in January this year.
David then died suddenly in April, with Jeremy and his then girlfriend Stephanie Davis both attending his funeral.

And Jeremy thought it would be entertaining to share a video with his followers on Saturday night in which he pretended the late reality star was actually alive and well.
Putting on an American accent, he said in the clip: "Hello guys, David Gest here. I’ve been in Lanzarote for the last few months and nobody knows."
He added a caption, which read: "Miss this dude so much," and put a heart emoji and a face crying with laughter.

However, not everyone saw the joke and people soon left comments to let Jeremy know what they thought of his actions.
One person wrote: "He has face swapped himself with David Gest and is pretending he is not dead and living in Lanzarote.
"So disrespectful."
David passed away in April this year at the age of 62.
He died as a result of a stroke, according to American attorney Edward Bearman, who was dealing with his estate.
At the time, Edward told The Sun on Sunday: "I’ve been told David died from a stroke."
He was found dead in his hotel room on April 12.
