India Willoughby has slammed Big Brother contestant Ryan Bradshaw after he mocked the idea of ‘woke people’ using ‘certain pronouns’.
TV personality India, 59, who is transgender, criticised ITV for allowing events organiser Ryan, 28, into the Big Brother house, saying his remarks were anti-trans.
In his intro VT, Blackpool native Ryan said: ‘There’s a lot of woke people out there. It’s all well and good if you want to use certain pronouns and I get that. It gets a bit confusing sometimes when people start identifying as a spoon or whatnot.’
Sharing a clip of him on X, India wrote: Really disappointing @buk. I wonder if this guy would have been allowed in the BB house if he’d been derogatory about Black, Asian or Jewish people in his VT?Â
‘It really is shocking how trans people can now be openly belittled in the UK mainstream @ITV.Â

An X user commented on India’s post saying they feel society is going backwards to which India replied: ‘Absolutely’
An X user commented on India’s post saying they feel society is going backwards, given trans contestant Nadia Almada won the fifth series of Big Brother in 2004.Â
They wrote: ‘Especially given a trans person WON Big Brother like 20 years ago. Like, how far backwards have we gone!?’
India replied: ‘Absolutely. It’s all a joke to them. Reminds me of the 70s.’
A Big Brother spokesperson said in response: ‘Housemates receive Respect and Inclusion training and an extensive briefing from the Big Brother Senior team to prepare them for living in the House and to set out Big Brother’s expectation for appropriate behaviour and language.’
India previously took part in Celebrity Big Brother in 2018 where she was the first housemate evicted by the public after 11 days.Â
Ryan is up for the first eviction on Friday after he found himself as one of four ‘none-housemates’ still left in the storage room after a series of challenges that saw none-housemates try and earn their housemate status.
He is up against Dean Smith, Rosie ‘Baked Potato’ Williams and Nathan King.  Â
It recently emerged that Ryan auditioned for The X Factor in 2013 and made acting videos describing women with big breasts as having more milk in resurfaced clips.
In one video uncovered by Mail Online he sang a rendition of One Direction’s Little Things to a hall full of people who clapped and cheered when he finished.
