The 'Ex On The Beach' star was chosen by his fellow housemates to automatically receive a nomination on the show every week until he exits.

Announcing the twist, Big Brother told the house: "Shortly, you will have to vote for someone to receive eternal nomination. They will face every eviction there is for the rest of the time they're in the house."

After the decision was made, Bear refused to talk to some of his fellow contestants who had voted for him.

Elsewhere on the show, Grant Bovey has been kicked out of the house in the first live eviction.

Speaking after his exit, he said: "I've got to be honest, there are really mixed emotions ... I didn't want to be first out [but] I'm glad to be out ... I can see my children ... I've just tried to be me. It's like being with 14 performers."

And despite receiving eight nominations, Grant insists he doesn't "hold a grudge" towards anyone who put his name in the hat.

He said: "I think when you have to nominate, you hardly know anybody. I don't hold a grudge."

Meanwhile, Grant was initially nominated by the other contestants for being isolated from the group.

Making his nomination, Frankie Grande claimed Grant preferred to be "more isolated", adding he "would feel more comfortable if we were a more cohesive unit" whilst Katie Waissel said he "kept himself to himself".

Christopher Biggins, who was kicked off the show earlier today (05.08.16), defended Grant's ex-wife Anthea when making his nomination.

He said: "Anthea, his wife, was a good friend of mine and I think she was treated quite badly by him."
