Despite not being visible on camera, a source informed The Sun: "Kath has surprised everyone by coming to meet JoJo when she leaves the house tonight, but she gave Celebrity Big Brother bosses strict orders that she wont be in any camera shots - filmed or still camera - nothing. ‌ "She's stressed and has demanded that she remain backstage out of sight." Kath has been quiet on social media recently, but previously defended JoJo when Mickey Rourke made homophobic remarks about the Dance Moms star. In the previous night's episode, JoJo received an emotional letter from her mum, which included a message from her partner which she admitted she 'didn't like'. ‌ The note, read out by Chris Hughes, said: "The most important thing to tell you is a message from Kath because I know you really miss them the most. Kath's keen to see you when you get out, inverted commas.'". JoJo was subsequently moved to tears as she pondered over her message, later questioning why Kath hadn't expressed her love for her. Earlier in the final, former Love Island star Chris Hughes became the first star to be evicted, with Chesney Hawkes booted out of the house moments later.
