Just when you thought the drama from Big Brother 2025 had wrapped up, former housemate George Gilbert drops another bombshell: he’s been booted from his day job as a school caretaker, all thanks to his explosive antics on the show. The Essex parish councillor, known for his unfiltered political rants and clashes with fellow contestants, was already ejected from the iconic house by ITV bosses for “repeated use of unacceptable language and behaviour.” But now, the fallout has spilled over into his real life, leaving him fuming and crying “cancel culture” at every turn.
George didn’t hold back during his stint on the rebooted reality juggernaut. A staunch supporter of Nigel Farage and the Reform party, he frequently locked horns with housemates, turning the house into a heated debate arena. Things escalated when he performed a homophobic impression of fellow contestant Sam Ashby, reducing them to tears and earning him a stern formal warning from Big Brother. But that was just the tip of the iceberg—George was ultimately yanked from the competition after unleashing comments so vile that producers deemed them too offensive to even broadcast.
Fast-forward to post-show life, and George thought he could dust himself off with a simple gig as a school cleaner. Think again! After just two shifts, he revealed on Andre Walker’s TalkTV show that a teacher had tipped off his agency, demanding he never set foot on school grounds again due to his “offensive language” on Big Brother. “I got sacked, Andre. Cancelled from the show for some b******* reason… and now I can’t even be a b***** school cleaner,” he vented, later sharing a clip on Instagram with the cheeky caption: “I’ve been cancelled again.”
Behind the scenes, reports paint an even grimmer picture. George allegedly racked up multiple off-air warnings for his inflammatory remarks. The final straw? Whispers suggest anti-Semitic language that crossed every line, leading to his abrupt exit without so much as a spot on Big Brother: Late and Live. In a candid YouTube confessional, George spilled the tea on his warnings: the first came after he bizarrely labeled Adolf Hitler as “misguided,” while another followed a racist quip about not wanting a child with a Black woman because “the gingerness would die a death.”
As the dust settles on Big Brother 2025, which crowned composer and author Richard Storry as its champion—the show’s oldest winner at 60—George’s saga serves as a stark reminder that what happens in the house doesn’t always stay in the house. Is this the ultimate reality TV ricochet, or just another chapter in George’s controversial playbook? One thing’s for sure: the twists keep coming!
