This is the first time in Celebrity Big Brother history that housemates have had to reveal their nominations in front of one another, with shocking betrayals and emotional scenes, including Love Island's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu left breaking down in tears after being nominated by Marisha Williams.

Here's everything you need to know about what happened in Big Brother tonight and who has been nominated for Friday night's eviction.

What happened in Celebrity Big Brother tonight?

It was all kicking off in the Celebrity Big Brother house, with the housemates heading to the kissing booth to make their face-to-face nominations. After deciding who they were going to nominate, housemates then had to seal their choice with a kiss.

Nominating Louis, Ekin-Su called her friend "lazy". Speaking about him in front of her fellow housemates, she shared: "My first nomination is going to be Louis. I just feel like Louis is a bit lazy and I prefer someone who is a team player. I would like him to be more practical with housework in the home. That's why I want to nominate Louis."

Tensions started to rise, with Fern nominating Ekin-Su by saying: "I don’t get you, you don’t get me." Continuing: "I sometimes feel like you’re wearing a mask…" adding: "It's mean.. but I feel like I don’t know the real you and that has disappointed me and disturbed me".

Louis, whilst making his decision to nominate Zeze said: "I’m not fake, I’m not acting. A lot of people here are.." He continued with his second nomination for David Potts adding: "I'm going to nominate David. He is fun, a nice guy and extremely loud. Very, very loud. I don't like loud all the time. I don't like show tunes all the time. I don't like Disney songs all the time."

How did Ekin-Su react to being nominated by Marisha?

Ekin-Su was left angry and breaking down in tears after being nominated by Marisha. She said: "That's not a reason. I knew this was gonna happen, this judging me because I’ve been on a f**king show before. You’ve been close to me this whole time, so you’ve been fake with me this whole time". Telling Marisha: "I actually don't want a kiss."

Things got heated, with the pair arguing after the nominations had taken place. Marisha asked Ekin-Su: "Why are you mad at me?" To which Ekin-Su replied, "What do you mean why?" Marisha said: "I had to nominate someone," Ekin-Su says, "but we're close", to which Marisha replies: "I know that we're close but I know that if you go, if you get nominated you will win." Ekin-Su said: "But that's not fair."

Marisha goes to the bedroom to console Ekin-Su who is sobbing into her teddy bear, she tells Ekin-Su, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, can you look at me?" Ekin-Su says: "You just reminded me of some people in my life and I thought I'll come here, no people's going to judge me, you were really close to me," Marisha replies: "I haven't judged you Ekin-Su." To which Ekin-Su replied: "So you're closer to Fern than me for instance, you could have mentioned other names."

She continued: "I don't want to say anything to hurt you, I just need some time". Adding: "I don't hate you, I'm just hurt it's normal". Ekin-Su gets up to leave telling Marisha: "Take the crown I don't even want to win anymore."

Ekin-Su then joins Marisha in the bathroom, telling her, "I don't think I can forgive you." Adding: "and I hope you win." She then composes herself before re-joining the housemates.

In the diary room Marisha, who had learnt about her nomination for Best Actress In A Musical at the Olivier Awards tells Big Brother sobbing: "I feel horrible, this is supposed to be the best day of my life and it's the worst, I kind of just want to go home. I've only known these people for a week and a half and I just want them to be okay, I want to be okay." Join the thousands of people who’ve signed up for a National World newsletter
