India Willoughby - who became the first housemate evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house last week - has slammed Rachel Johnson who she believes was the reason for her 'demise.'

Appearing on Channel 5 telly show The Wright Stuff, India elaborated on her tweets claiming she was 'played like a fiddle by a massive manipulator' on the show; claiming said 'manipulator' was in fact Stanley Johnson's daughter.

Oh, and Stanley was also on the show's panel. Blimey.

Speaking in her first proper interview since Friday's eviction show, India explained: "I think I do need to set the record straight and I’m sorry that Stanley is here because he's a lovely gentleman and I am a massive massive fan.

"But the architect of my demise was sadly your daughter.

"Within an hour or so of actually being in the house I was being mis-gendered left, right and centre. I started off politely just pointing out the reasons why that was inappropriate but it continued."

Courtney Act

RuPaul's Drag Race star and BFF of Little Mix's Jade Thirlwall, Courtney Act (real name Shane Jenek), will also be joining this year's celeb line-up.

India continued: "There was this undercurrent which I felt from the start, and because of what Rachel was doing, the mis-gendering – and Ann – it marked me out as the runt of the litter.

"Obviously if you’re constantly being questioned whether you’re “he” or “him”, then you are going to reaffirm your gender, you’re going to point out that’s not appropriate. Rachel was saying, “Show me your bazookas”, she’s on camera doing that.

"She was egging me on – “Are they real, can I have a look, can I have a touch”. Having told her repeatedly that I’m a woman, I’m a she, I just got tired of verbally doing it and I thought I’m just going to let my body speak for itself."

Matthew Wright also brought up India's infamous 'phobia' of drag queens, which many questions after pictures of her posing with drag artists at a Pride festival emerged recently.

She said: "I didn’t know the drag queens were going to be there on that day, but if I’m at an event on that day and the organiser says “Look we’d like to get some PR shots, can you go over there and have your picture taken with them”, I’m going to do it."
