Mum of Big Brother housemate Conor McIntyre
has insisted that her son isn’t a bully.
The comments come after more than 1,000
complained about Conor’s outburst against
fellow housemate Deana last month, leading to
an investigation from telly watchdog Ofcom.
Conor’s mom Siobhan insisted however that his
rant rant was just a “one-off”.
“He’s not a bully,” she insisted. “His outburst
about Deana was a one-off. Being in that house,
he’s in a state of captivity. He was frustrated
and angry.”
Conor was given an official warning by Big
Brother after the incident, but was allowed to
stay in the house.
His mum meanwhile blamed Irish culture on his
comments being taken out of context.
“There needs to be an understanding that Irish
people are very direct in how we think about
things,” she explained. “There’s been a bit of
misinterpretation of Conor’s culture.
“We are very fine Irish family with good morals.
Everything I’ve seen I’m very proud of. I don’t
think he realised what he was saying.”

My pet hate is when family parents partners friends insist their loved one is not a bully/ homophobe/ racist. How would they know?
Its not as if you'd be a bully to your dad etc.
