Tiffany Pollard wasted no time making her presence felt on Big Brother, with a fiery confrontation just hours after moving into the house leaving one housemate threatening to walk out.
The 44-year-old American reality television star, who first appeared on the programme in 2016, has returned to the ITV show as a celebrity guest and has already caused plenty of tension.
Her first major clash came with content creator Phillip Regan, after Tiffany told him that viewers had been left with the impression he was “two-faced”.
“I don’t understand why people are having such a big problem with you,” she told him. “What’s going on with that?”
“Have you been completely open with your housemates? That’s what it is. I think that’s why the public are calling you a huge backstabber. But that’s you being authentic.”
Phillip appeared stunned by the criticism and headed for the Diary Room, although Tiffany made sure to get in one more dig about his thinning hair before he left.
Tiffany Pollard triggered chaos on Big Brother after a heated argument just hours after entering the house left a fellow housemate threatening to quit
The 44-year-old American reality star joined the ITV competition as a celebrity guest and quickly ruffled feathers by telling Phillip Regan that viewers considered him “two-faced”
“You’ll get through it,” she shouted after him. “Just like you’re getting through the male pattern baldness at the back of your mother-f***ing head!”
Clearly furious, Phillip later told the Diary Room: “She’s a trouble-causer, always has been on every show she’s been in.”
“She’s nasty and I don’t really want to be around her. I genuinely want to go home now, I’m being honest with you. Because of that witch, I want to leave. I’m not staying in here with her. How f***ing dare she.”
The drama escalated further when Phillip came out of the Diary Room and the two housemates launched into another furious exchange, while the rest of the group watched in uncomfortable silence.
“I’m going to shout. I’m from New York, I’m going to be loud,” Tiffany declared.
“Well, I’m from Scotty f***ing Road!” Phillip fired back, referring to historic Scotland Road in Vauxhall, north Liverpool, near his hometown.
“The way you turned around and said nasty things the first time you met me—you’re upsetting my feelings. I wouldn’t do that to you,” Phillip added.

Tiffany appeared to poke fun at Phillip’s Liverpudlian accent, saying she could not understand him, before delivering one final insult aimed at his clothing.
“I don’t give a s***. That’s why you look like an out-of-work Steven Seagal!” she snapped.
Despite the explosive disagreement with Phillip, Tiffany also joined the other housemates for a party, where they questioned her about her first appearance on the reality show a decade ago.
She told Phillip, “The public are deeming you to be a huge backstabber.” He was visibly shocked and stormed away, although Tiffany managed to make a remark about his thinning hair before he left
Elsewhere, one housemate asked whether David Bowie was still alive, seemingly unaware of the memorable moment when Tiffany mistook Angie’s announcement about her famous ex-husband’s death for news about David Guest
Twinks then mistakenly said: ‘Angie is no longer here as well. Angie died.’ Looking shocked, Tiffany replied: ‘No she didn’t? She died?’ Before Big Brother bosses had to clean the air
The American star had previously been in the house with the likes of Gemma Collins, Scotty T, David Guest and Angie Bowie.
Rochelle asked if David Bowie was still alive, clearly missing the iconic moment where Tiffany had thought Angie meant David Guest when she announced the news that her famous ex-husband had died.
Twinks then mistakenly said: ‘Angie is no longer here as well. Angie died.’
Looking shocked, Tiffany replied: ‘No she didn’t? She died?’
‘I think she did’, replied Twinks.
Shocked Tiffany continued to question if that was true, a panicked Twinks then said: ‘I don’t wanna be making up rumours. I’m pretty sure Angie’s not here.’
It prompted Big Brother bosses to quickly release a statement alongside the video on social media saying: ‘For legal reasons, Angie is not dead xxx.’
Big Brother will return at 9pm on ITV2.
