Nikki Grahame has claimed that Ziggy Lichman is better off without his Big Brother 8 lover Chanelle Hayes.

The Big Brother 7 star has revealed that she sides with Lichman on the pair's disputes in the press, adding that she is surprised he lasted so long in the relationship.

She says in her OK! column: "I don't know how Ziggy coped in the relationship. I spoke to him the other day and he said everything he's said about Chanelle is true."

"He sounds relieved that the relationship is over and I think he just needs to play the field a bit now.

"I went for dinner with him and friends last week, which was fun."

They are both better off without each other.
