Marco Pierre-White Jr’s ex-fiance Kim Melville-Smith ‘heartbroken’ by split after Big Brother antics

Marco Pierre-White Jr’s former fiancée Kim Melville-Smith has been left “heartbroken” by their split.

The couple called off their engagement after White had sex with model Laura Carter in the Big Brother house.

Melville-Smith acknowledged their split on Twitter, telling followers that she wishes she could be a child again.

“I wish I was a little girl again because skinned knees are a lot easier to fix,” she tweeted. “Why is it so hard sometimes? #heartbroken (sic).”

White – who was the first to be evicted from this year’s series – struck up a relationship with model Carter on the Channel 5 show.

The pair were shown getting intimate in bed together and White asked Carter to “strangle” him.

The footage sparked over 600 complaints and broadcasting watchdog Ofcom later announced that the episode, which aired on June 12, is being investigated.

White claimed Melville-Smith granted him a “hall pass” prior to joining the reality show, but admitted to going “too far”.

Speaking on This Morning he said: “The arrangement we had was that I was given a hall pass.

“Maybe I did push it too far and take full blame.”

He continued: “I’m in contact with [Kim] at the moment and just spoke to her now and I think we’ve decided to see how it goes over the next couple of weeks and just be friends for the moment.

“I think Kim’s a great person. I don’t regret anything to do with Laura, I think she’s a great person as well, but I do feel guilty… I feel bad.”
