View Full Version : BB11 (2010) Ben Duncan dies aged 45yrs…
A BIG Brother star who went to university with Prince William has tragically died aged 45 after falling “100ft from the rooftop” of a London hotel.
Ben Duncan – who appeared as a contestant in Season 11 of the popular reality TV show – sadly passed away on Thursday.
The star died after falling seven floors from the rooftop bar of the Trafalgar St. James hotel, cops said.
Cops were called to the luxury five star hotel after receiving reports of a “man on the roof”.
A Met Police spokesperson said: “Officers responded to concerns for a man on the roof of a building in Cockspur Street, Westminster at 23:02 hours on Thursday, 30 October.
“The man sadly fell from height. Despite the best efforts from the London Ambulance service, he was sadly pronounced dead at the scene.
“His death is unexpected but non-suspicious”.
After leaving the Big Brother house, Ben – who was reportedly pals with Prince William – went on to star in other popular reality shows.
He was at St Andrews university with William and Kate when they first started dating.
Ben was reportedly part of the royal couple’s inner circle before he went on to star in reality shows.

I recall he was a very controversial HM? such sad news RIP
That's awful. He was a great housemate from what I remember, quite amusing and quick witted but rubbed a few people up the wrong way

oh my god, that's shocking
Tragic.
Great housemate, I will always remember him singing his part in the video the hms made for a task that year.
Sounds like he caught the suicide virus.

Poor guy. From what I remember he was a good housemate and rubbed people up the wrong way. 45 is not an age to have lost their life. RIP
People...He was nearly to posh to get his mouth to form right to say it.
Legend, RIP.

RIP to one of the most unique, polite, friendly housemates they've ever had on the show. He carried BB11 with his witty one liners and sarcastic dry humour.

oh man that is emotional
Man that's a real shocker. Such a grizzly end, too. I'd casually watched BB since around 2007 or so, but that final series (ironically) was the one where I really got into it proper.. He was one of my favourites from that series. R.I.P.

This is awful, absolutely awful news.
He was mine and Kazanne's favourite in that series.
It was the series I actually joined TIBB for.
I thought he was a great housemate and along with Kazanne, championed him all through.
This is extremely sad news.
Awful.
R.I.P.

Is he the one that was in the bed that started raising up when he was sleeping? That’s one of my fondest memories of the show
…’you can’t have had a very interesting day, if I’ve ruined it…I suggest that you go and find something more interesting to do in the future…’…:laugh:…and that’s that of that, tree of temptation…
My main memory of Ben is using inordinate amounts of shaving cream

That's horrible
R.I.P.
I always felt a bit sorry for him in BB, other housemates seemed to mock him.
