Ann Widdecombe was reportedly given her own private bathroom for her stay in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

The former Conservative minister allegedly requested a private bathroom before signing up to the Year of the Woman series so she was never seen in the bath or the shower.

A source told The Daily Star: “Ann’s ultimate nightmare was being seen in any state of undress on TV.

“She told the producers she did not want to be filmed in the nude or taking showers and baths so they let her have her way.”

The insider added: “The funny thing is we are pretty sure viewers wouldn’t have wanted to see her in the buff anyway.”

When contacted by Evening Standard Online, a show spokesperson said: “Housemates' living arrangements and activities are contained within the CBB house.”

In the latest episode, the 70-year-old was left unimpressed when a group of male strippers entered the Elstree abode.

The troupe was a part of a task but failed to win the former Strictly Come Dancing star over as she refused to look at them and covered her ears.

When they continued, Widdecombe left the room and retreated to the bedroom where she covered her head with a towel.
