Mario left CBB house during filming..
 

.. and spoke to fellow TOWIE member Lucy.

Lucy Mecklenburgh has revealed that she met up with ex-fiancé Mario Falcone after he was granted special permission to leave the Celebrity Big Brother house during filming. The Only Way Is Essex star said that they bumped into each other at the American Embassy in London. Falcone was allowed to leave the Celebrity Big Brother house in order to obtain a US visa so he can film with his TOWIE castmates in Las Vegas.

Mecklenburgh told New magazine: "I walked in, and to my shock Mario was there, four days before the final of CBB! The show's producers had agreed beforehand to let him out to get his visa. We had a chat for a little while, which was nice. I told him he was doing really well in the house and that he should be proud of himself, and he asked if I'd had a nice holiday."

Of their relationship, Mecklenburgh added: "He said he'd had a lot of time to think about things and me while he'd been in there... I was with him for a long time and I lived with him - and of course I still care about him - so I'd really like it if we can stay friends." The pair broke up in April after allegations that Falcone slept with Sugar Hut Honey Amy Broadbent.

More Secrets, just what is is "Reality" as far as BB or CBB is concerned?

If he was out of the house for that length of time, the producers would have had to let the other HMs know not to mention his absence from the "set" in order not to compromise filming for HLs etc!

Next they'll be telling us Gina isn't rich. Oh wait...

CUT HlS HEAD OFF!

I think you meant "dangly bits"?

"Bumped into him" Oh yeah :elephant:

What a joke.

What a joke.

The show is just a joke now.I was angry but not surprised when I read the interview in ok celebrity.

What a joke. BB always keep secrets from the viewers. It's not good for them!

Hardly much of a revelation though, BB seem to do this sort of thing all the time now. The show itself has become just a money making show more than entertainment for the viewers. It's just become a vehicle now cleverly manipulated to launch some of the so called Zelebs in their own shows to try and make even more money from more reality fly on the wall shows.

That's it, in a nutshell! But still the viewers throw money at them every series.:conf::conf::conf:

sigh. I don't really care anymore. The producers are just ruining it for themselves

this show...seriously

:bored:

at least it is not happing to Civilian big brother

no wonder they'll never bring back 24/7 live feed

They can't, the days of treating the fans as non-thinking morons are coming to an end.

It is a joke.

Give it time. BB15 will be entirely scripted.

Ridiculous :bored:

They have no respect for their fans at all. I'm just going to quote what bbspy said because he pretty much summed it up for me.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one.

Wouldn't mind if they'd told us because it was the only way Mario could get his visa, but stupid to not tell people and presumably hope it just never came out

Exactly! Who runs that company?

Well the series theme seemed to be secrets and lies.

C4 did manipulate scenarios but c5 are taking pi $$.

Tom left bb12 for funeral as did jay for dentist iirc. Then they hid poo gate and tried to force alex as winner. Bb 13 hid conor atrocities.cbb early one hid rylans rehearsals for xfactot tour and tried tostop speidi...

Not even surprising now really
