He has said he is totally deaf in one ear. There is a clip where he moved seats so that he could hear.

When did he say that.. I saw him switch seats.. I didnt buy it for a second but i'll take it back if he is actually 100% deaf In that ear but id question the need of hearing aids if he was..

Yes, he said he was completely deaf on one ear. It was when Jasmine was there.

I thought it was common knowledge. It has been on his website in a bio dated back in 2013. He had a tumour removed and a disease caused total deafness in his left ear. It was in a recent clip where Jasmine sat the wrong side of him and he couldn't hear her.

deafness in left ear?
That could also be used as an advantage. Heck, if I was him I'd always sit to the right of Sam.

Yes, same thing Gary Busey's son had.

I am deaf in one ear,I have an hearing aid but have to wear it in my GOOD ear as in the deaf one it wouldn't pick anything up,I don't wear it often as I have got used to being without it.

Yes, i think Cristian is used to being without it. He seems to manage really well. I've only seen him wear his earing aid once.

I think you need to do your research a bit more. No bull****ting. There are hearing aids that can amplify to the good ear.

You tend to look at peoples lips a lot,I find my hearing aid uncomfortable as I have tiny ears and it keeps dropping off,I was offered a cochlear implant but it is bolted to your skull ,so I didn't fancy that,as the kids would be unscrewing the bolt:joker::joker: no seriously you have a screw on your skull.

Not a hope. If he was less attractive he would be labelled a bore, a coaster, insipid and a waste of space of a housemate where we could have got someone much more entertaining. He was only put in there because of his looks as God knows he hasn't delivered ANYTHING. So no, he wouldn't have the support he has if he wasn't goodlooking

What an awful thing to say, he didn't go into details in the clip but regardless of whether he is completely deaf or partially deaf, it will have had a profound effect on his quality of life!! Hearing aids are not what people think they are, they may give some degree of hearing back but they don't give the wearer perfect hearing. I personally feel christian has done really well for himself and is a shining example of a young man in today's day n age

Researching Cristians ear doesnt interest me, him wearing his aid in his good ear is plausible, him switching seats because hed struggle to hear jasmine otherwise is more insulting tbh. Easy to see what hes doing there..

Tom4784 07-07-2015 07:05 PM

Not at all, he'd be hated more than Jack.

Might be easy for you but I don't know what you are talking about :shrug:

I've had to get on my good hearing side sometimes Withano,my friends are so used to it they automatically walk on my right side,I can see why he did that tbh.

I think my friends have forgot tbh! But i suppose total deafness is something i probably wont experience.. It just screamed making a point instead of actually struggling to me especially with laughs, the explanations and the looks for approval.. Seemed like he was using it as more of a novelty..

waterhog 07-07-2015 07:13 PM

like i would say to anyone - only go on BB if you are mentally fit for this challenge - to add something and to have a experiences. you may ask who am i to judge if he has had a experience ? but this is my judgement on him in there.

Vanessa 07-07-2015 07:16 PM

He could have used his disability to gain the sympathy vote, but he didn't. I respect him so much for that. He's a lovely lad, always so polite and can be quite funny.
