George Sampson's dad thrown out of his birthday party

George Sampson's dad Brian says he was desperate to see his son

George Sampson’s dad says he was thrown out of his son’s birthday gig by bouncers.

Brian Sampson bought a £7 ticket to see the Britain's Got Talent winner perform at the Chicago Rock Café in Warrington, Cheshire, last Sunday.

He has hardly seen George since splitting from wife Lesley, 39, 5 years ago. But he says he's keen to make amends with his son.

‘I just wanted to see George on his birthday,’ says Brian.

‘I wasn’t going to cause any trouble because it was George’s big day. But a member of Lesley’s family came up to me and I told him to f*** off.

‘He then told the bouncers that I was here and explained how I wasn't allowed to see George.'

40-year-old Brian has made various attempts to contact his son since he rose to fame on the ITV show. And after security at the concert threw him out he snuck back in to watch from the rear of the venue.

‘I was led out by 3 bouncers who told me in no uncertain terms that I was not to cause any trouble,' he tells the Sunday People.

'They said it would be better if I stayed away so I was forced to watch from the back.’

Meanwhile, George has been signed up to star in hip-hop musical Into The Hoods for a 4-week London run from 5 August.
