This is sad, of all the ex-BBers I thought they were the ones to get it right and move away from the spotlight to get on with their lives and raising their son together.

There's an article in The Sun today on Tom and Claire....

BIG Brother lovers Tom McDermott and Claire Strutton have split — after starting a dream life in the sun and having a baby.

Tom, 35, has left their villa on Spain’s Costa del Sol following a series of festering rows.

Distraught Claire, 29, admitted: “We were arguing and decided that it was best to have some time apart.

“We’ve both been very upset and it all started around Christmas, which made it even more painful.”

The pair — who met on the Channel 4 reality show’s first series in 2000 — fell for each other AFTER the cameras stopped rolling.

Claire entered the house as a replacement for Nasty Nick Bateman and made a beeline for scouser Craig Phillips, the eventual winner.

Quiet Ulsterman Tom fancied Mel Hill and the pair snogged on camera.

But the “romance” never came to anything — and he kept in touch with Claire after the show ended.

The pair began dating and Claire later fell pregnant with son Pierce, now two-and-a-half.

But with Big Brother 5 starting on May 28, Claire — who sells property with Tom — is warning contestants NOT to go looking for love on the show.

There is also a piece on all the BB couples and here's the piece on p&H....

BUBBLY blonde Helen Adams, 25, and Paul Clarke, 28, live together after meeting on BB2.

The couple tantalised viewers with their “will they won’t they” relationship.

After they were evicted they began dating and now share a home in North London.

Paul returned to work as a car designer while Helen plans to open a hair salon.
