Body language expert gives their verdict on whether Chris Hughes' Diary Room breakdown was genuine as they reveal Celebrity Big Brother star has 'one key rival'


During Monday night's episode, the former Love Island star, 32, broke down in tears after being branded a 'game player' after sparking backlash for his 'creepy' friendship with JoJo Siwa, 21.

Now, commenting on Chris' behaviour, Judi told Paddy Power Games: 'Chris' meltdown in the Diary Room looked authentic and will have been partly prompted by the sheer physical exhaustion of keeping up with a spectacular 21-year-old 'playmate' who lives life on a permanent sugar rush. It can look amusing on screen - but the Big Brother experience takes life back to playground level and being spoon-fed by fake 'parents' or lying in a pen all day might have helped push Chris into showing his authentic infantile side later. She explained: 'Chris performed a dominant, arrogant pit-bare and a shrug to suggest a strong, resilient response, but there was also a wince of what looked like physical pain and he began to suck on his water bottle, which is a classic Big Brother signal of infantile feelings and a desire to self-comfort.
