Not according to the press:

Danielle is ‘living in fear’

DANIELLE Lloyd has spoken of death threats to her family and her need for increased security precautions since leaving the Celebrity Big Brother House.

The 23-year-old model said that her family, who live in High Street, South Woodford, received death threats while she was living in the Channel 4 Big Brother house.

Since her eviction on Sunday on the show's final episode, when she was greeted with boos from the crowd, Miss Lloyd has also had to enlist bodyguards to protect her and her family.

Miss Lloyd told a national newspaper on Tuesday that she had no idea that her alleged racial bullying of Celebrity Big Brother winner Shilpa Shetty had attracted such condemnation.

She added: "I don't know whether I'm going to be able to walk down the street without people thinking I'm a racist.

"I've been distraught since I left and feel like it's the end of the world. I had no idea that I had been involved in whatever Jade Goody had been involved in at that point."

After Celebrity Big Brother finished, Miss Lloyd claimed the reality TV show had been edited to portray her in an unflattering light.

Media law experts acting on behalf of the model have confirmed that Miss Lloyd is cooperating fully with an ongoing police investigation into the alleged racist bullying of Miss Shetty.

Miss Lloyd, who is West Ham footballer Teddy Sheringham's girlfriend, also claims fellow Big Brother contestant Jade Goody was briefed by Channel 4 about the furore her racial remarks had caused.

She added that Endelmol and Channel 4 bosses initially turned down her request to attend the after-show press conference which she later appeared on.

A Channel 4 spokeswoman refuted the model's claims and said the press conference was organised for the show's finalists only and Ms Lloyd was not asked to attend because she had not made the final.

She added that Ofcom's strict regulations ensure that Celebrity Big Brother was fair and accurate because live streaming of the show can be seen on E4 and online and the one hour highlights show presents a precise depiction of the previous day's events.
