Angellica Bell‘s husband Michael Underwood made a rare TV appearance on Celebrity Big Brother companion show Late & Live tonight to support her. He spoke about being away from his wife whilst she’s in the Big Brother house.
Former TV presenter Michael, 49 – known for his presenting roles on CBBC and CITV – supported Angellica, also 49, on Late & Live earlier. He featured in a segment on the ITV show in which loved ones of housemates spoke to host AJ Odudu, 37, ahead of tomorrow evening’s third eviction.
Michael – who’s now a teacher, but who has continued to host a Virgin Radio show on weekends – has been married to fellow presenter Angellica since 2010. The couple have two children together.
Asked what he would say to Angellica, he said: “I’d tell her she’s doing so brilliantly. She’s making the whole family proud. Me proud.”
Michael continued: “And it’s the most emotional you will have seen her on this show. Y’know normally she likes to be really strong and she is strong, and she’s really independent. But y’know the emotion’s there and it’s been creeping out obviously because of the intense situation.”
He added: “There are times when I’m literally having to hold myself back because just seeing her like that, I want to be there and give her a big cuddle. And tell her it’s going to be okay. So it’s hard that I haven’t been able to speak to her.”
Angellica was among the thirteen celebrities who entered the Big Brother house last Monday for the new series. She’s now one of the remaining ten housemates ahead of tomorrow night’s eviction, with three people having already left.
