Natalie Cassidy was a standout star on Celebrity Big Brother - but she was evicted from the house last night.
Everyone expected the Shannon twins to go, not the former EastEnders actress, 28, who the public failed to save following Kirk Norcross's exit.
'My game was to stay after the twins - those two girls absolutely adore themselves,' Natalie told host Brian Dowling.
'I taught them to boil a kettle - that is the world they come from.'
Single mum Nat - who was tipped to win the show and at least make the final - has had a tough few years.
First, losing weight for her fitness DVD in 2007 left her ‘bordering on having an eating disorder'.
Then her joy at having baby Eliza in September 2010 was tarnished earlier this year when she split with fiancé Adam Cottrell, 31, after he attacked her during a violent row.
