Big Brother fans demand producers step in after airing secret footage of Ali and Marcello ‘kiss’ scene
BIG Brother fans demanded producers step in tonight and remove Marcello from the house as they aired secret footage of him and Ali.
Normally the ITV2 show does not air any scenes of the housemates in the smoking area, but tonight bosses broke that rule to show the context of a conversation between the pair.
He offered her his vape, suggesting she try the grape flavour.
After taking a toke, she handed it back to him, and he told her: “We just vape kissed.”
“Marcello!” a shock Ali scolded.
“It’s a thing!” he responded, flirtily.
“It’s not a thing,” she shot back, laughing awkwardly. “It;s definitely not a thing.”
While Marcello then reassured her he was joking, when they went back to join the group, he let the joke continue.
“We just kissed innit,” he told Sarah, Segun and Hanah, before quickly adding: “No, I’m joking.”
After Sarah scolded him, Ali went inside and confessed to her fellow housemates that she was concerned the smoking scene would not be shown – therefore her girlfriend watching at home might believe Marcello that they kissed.
Marcello then came inside in an attempt to smooth things over.
“I have people watching [at home],” Ali told him.
“Yeah, I know, me too,” he responded. “Honestly, beyond the jokes I am a gentleman.”
The pair then shook hands but Marcello couldn’t resist getting another gag in.
After Ali gently told him he was trying to “ruin my life”, he responded: “You came in the smokers’ room! You know what you were doing!”
Needless to say, fans watching at home were not impressed and urged producers to remove him from the house.
One raged on X: “Marcello is vile, get him out. Predatory vibes, completely disrespecting Ali & her relationship.”
A second added: “Ali is clearly uncomfortable about what Marcello did.”
A third chimed: “Eject Marcello now, Ali nor any of the other women should have to deal with that absolutely disgusting creature.”
“Sorry marcello is disgusting! Poor Ali that’s so uncomfortable of a situation,” echoed a fourth.
A fifth fumed: “Marcello literally PREYING on Ali like that is so vile I need him out of that house NOW.”
And a sixth agreed: “Marcello’s persistence with Sarah and Ali is really weird. They’ve both told him to stop and yet he continues. Someone for the love of god step in.”

It comes as some viewers also branded Marcello a “pig” last night following an exchange between him and Sarah.
Sarah was complimenting Marcello as he worked in the kitchen as part of the shopping task.
“You are so funny Marcello, when I first met you, you are not someone that I would think I would get on with so well,” Sarah told him.
Looking taken aback, he replied: “I’m a nice person.”
“I know you are, but on first impression…” she added.
Everyone always judges me,” Marcello responded.
Sarah went on to explain: “Yeah because you sound like the way you sound, the accent, the city, the way you dress, you are just someone that in public I probably wouldn’t gravitate towards because I would be a bit intimidated.”
Marcello then flirtily shot back: “Oh honey, I would gravitate towards you, don’t worry about that.
While Hanah, who was watching on, screamed at his comment, Sarah looked unimpressed and said: “Please don’t”
Big Brother continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
