<\/p>\n

Celebrity Big Brother winner Ryan Thomas fought back tears as he recalled the moment Roxanne Pallett accused him of being a “woman beater” on the reality television series.<\/p>\n

The soap stars entered the house in August 2018, however, the nation was soon left outraged after Roxanne, 40, lied on the show, accusing Ryan, 39, of punching her “like a boxer”.<\/p>\n

Ofcom was flooded with over 25,000 complaints from the incident on the then-Channel 5 show that saw Ryan emotionally destroyed.<\/p>\n

Five years on from the punch-gate scandal, the former Coronation Street star who portrayed Jason Grimshaw, opened up for the first time since the incident.<\/p>\n

Appearing on the latest episode of the Mancs On The Mic \u2013 a podcast fronted by Ryan and his two brothers Scott and Adam \u2013 the soap star explained: “I just couldn’t put my finger on why this was happening.”<\/p>\n

He continued: “But I didn’t want to make a thing of it and go, ‘Why are you not all talking to me?’ because I thought it was me.<\/p>\n

“I was the problem for Roxanne, I sort of broke down because I felt lonely and I felt like everyone else thought that I was the problem and that I’d done something wrong and then I start to question, ‘Did I do something wrong?’<\/p>\n

“Because it was that intense, in that environment, and then it was eviction night and you get your family’s messages from home. I got a message from Scott and I was really happy it was Scott because Scott’s amazing words, [jokes] he’s not really good in person.<\/p>\n

“He wrote this message saying, ‘We’re all here for you, bro, we all know the truth.’ It’s so weird I get emotional about it now because it’s over. And I don’t even think about it.”<\/p>\n
