Celebrity Big Brother: Sarah Harding 'given time away' from her housemates

It’s no secret that Sarah Harding has been struggling over in the Celebrity Big Brother house, with the former Girls Aloud star being pushed to tears on more than one occasion – particularly after locking horns with housemate Paul Danan.

Now it has been claimed that producers are so concerned about Sarah’s anxiety that they have granted her time away from the rest of the contestants.

A source told The Sun: “Sarah is not in a great state. She’s not coping with the pressure and she’s paranoid about what everyone thinks of her.

“She’s been spending time talking to the professional team and is being given time away from the other housemates.

“She is finding it tough living with so many other people because she usually lives alone.

“No one wants her to walk out so it’s about trying to get her through these difficult times. There are real concerns, they don’t want to push her too far.”

Sarah’s housemates have also shown concern for the singer, with Paul and Brandi nominating Sarah after she enjoyed a alcohol-fuelled night in the swimming pool at the weekend.

Brandi said at the time: “I really like Sarah a lot. I’m concerned for her well-being. She’s very fragile right now.”

Paul added that he is concerned Sarah will “ruin her career” in the house – something that caused the star great offence.

Confiding to Big Brother in the DIary Room, Sarah said: “I have tried to stay positive and they ask me what’s wrong and I tell them. I’ve had a headache for three days.

“I’m not used to being in an environment like this. I just don’t feel like I belong here anymore.”

Sarah survived the first eviction of the series last night, with Mob Wives star Marissa Jade being the first celebrity to get the boot.

Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on Channel 5.
