When host AJ Odudu asked who Kate would want to win now that he’s left home, she replied: “Levi Roots, I have a lot of respect for him, and if he wins, he’ll wear it forever.”
Will asked again: ‘And you think Kate would be okay with that?’
Gary responded ‘100%, she puts other people first’

He responded by saying: ‘I think peace is something to always fight for. I thought I was having a really great life until something hits you.
‘One day I was Gary, a laughing businessman with a big family. And then the next minute, I’m a national villain.
“So if I’m honest, I really don’t know what true peace is.”
The brother of Kate’s mother Carole Middleton was fined £5,000 and given a community order in November 2017 after pleading guilty to a charge of assault by beating.
His wife accused him of taking drugs, the court was told, and a London taxi driver saw her thrown to the ground outside their home.
Gary’s inclusion in the program was criticized by Women’s Aid, who said that “the inclusion of men convicted of abuse in entertainment programs will already be a sign that these crimes are not taken seriously” and the charity advised the program to Consider your appearance.

“The offense has long since passed, but my repentance remains.”
Despite leaving some viewers embarrassed by his behavior, Gary insisted in his exit interview that he “achieves his agenda” while living in the house.
ITV was reportedly forced to “carefully edit” Gary’s comments about Kate and King Charles on Celebrity Big Brother.
Jennie Bond said mirror. “Anything Gary says about the royal family is a headline, it’s great for the show, it’s publicity for ITV.
‘And yet they must be aware that they have a duty to safeguard and protect the health of the individual, not to mention, obviously, the royal family.
“So I imagine they will have lawyers reviewing it, but yes, there will be careful editing.” I think the slightest hint they can give about anything that’s going on with the royal family – with Harry’s situation, Catherine’s health or the King’s health – they will do everything they can to show it.
Gary, who made money recruiting and was once worth £30million, is believed to have been kept at arm’s length by the Middletons in recent years.
This is despite him attending William and Kate’s wedding in London in 2011 and then Kate’s sister Pippa Middleton’s wedding to James Matthews in Berkshire six years later.
Gary regularly speaks out to support Kate, who is believed to call him “Uncle G”, and has previously hailed her as “the most spectacular person I have ever met”.
Kate’s mother had harsh words for her brother before he entered the Big Brother house amid fears he could reveal secrets about the Royal Family.
A source told The Sun: ‘Gary said Kate’s mother Carole and father Michael read him the riot card. They’re not happy that I’m going on Celebrity Big Brother. They find it exasperating. Kate doesn’t need this stress.
During Monday’s explosive launch episode, as Gary prepared to enter the house, host AJ Odudu wasted no time asking if his real niece would be tuning in. Gary joked: “She’ll hide behind the couch if she’s watching.”
