Shock NEW favorite is set to WIN Celebrity Big Brother as bookies reveal Louis Walsh is no longer the front-runner after ‘trigger moment’ for viewers

David Potts has been revealed as the new favorite to win Celebrity Big Brother in Friday night’s grand final.

The Ibiza Weekender star has reached the last five alongside Louis Walsh, Fern Britton, Colson Smith and Nikita Kuzmin.

And while the former X Factor judge was previously the bookies’ favorite to win the ITV reality show, David has been revealed as the new front-runner, with body language expert Judi James believing a ‘trigger moment’ could have cost him the title.

The reality star is odds-on favorite at 4-6 with bookmaker Coral after strong support in the betting over the last 24 hours.

Louis Walsh is second best in betting at 5-2, Nikita Kuzmin is 8-1, Colson Smith is 25-1, while Fern Britton is 33-1.

Coral’s John Hill explained: ‘David has jumped to the top of our betting ahead of tonight’s Celebrity Big Brother final. He has been one of the favorites throughout the series and we are making him the odds-on now to be crowned the winner.’

Meanwhile, the Ladbrokes figures drew the same conclusion, predicting that David will win the show after overtaking former front-runner Louis.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: ‘It’s neck and neck between Louis and David for this year’s CBB crown, although a late move on the latter means he goes into tonight’s final as clear favorite to go all the way.’

BetVictor Casino also confirmed that David is the 4/9 favorite to win the show and revealed that since the start of the series he has received the highest amount of positive social sentiment on Twitter compared to the other contestants.

Sam Boswell, spokesman for BetVictor, said: “Our research has suggested that David Potts is in a strong position to claim the crown, with the reality TV star looking to be the British public’s favorite housemate, picking up the biggest amount of positive social sentiment.since the series started with 23%, while he is also our 4/9 favorite to win the show.

‘Strictly Come Dancing’s Nikita Kuzmin and Coronation Street’s Colson Smith follow close behind with 22% and 19% respectively, while Fern Britton and Louis Walsh appear to be the least popular with the public, which could hamper their chances of glory tonight.’

Body language expert Judi believes viewers would have been put off by Louis when they saw him get a head massage from Fern, in scenes reminiscent of Geroge Galloway pretending to be a cat for actress Rula Lenska.

Speaking exclusively to Paddy Power, she said: ‘Louis and Fern’s own goal came when they decided to style themselves as the new Galloway and Lenska.

‘Their ‘Can I be your cat?’ the scene still triggers, and toes can curl again at the mention of it, years later. Sexually based RPGs are not pretty to watch, and these two took it too far to cause anything but acute viewer embarrassment.

‘Fern stood above and behind Louis, massaging his head, face and earlobes in a cosmetologist-style role-play. With Louis’ head in a headlock and eyes closed, the facial touch already looked like an intimate act, but both celebs upped the sexual stakes as their voices began to dip in tone. IIt was a natural toe curler from start to finish.’

It comes after Bradley Rich’s shock eviction on Thursday, after a brutal twist saw him leave the house.

After the double eviction of Marisha Wallace and Zeze Millz on Tuesday, the hosts were Will Best and AJ Odudu revealed that despite six contestants remaining, only five will make it to the end due to yet another eviction.

The public were given the vote to save their favorite housemate, with Bradley, 22, starting out a day before the grand final.

Viewers criticized the show for the way they sent the Heartstopper actor, labeling it ‘brutal and cruel’.

In the latest episode, the housemates were treated to a surprise visit from a loved one at the secret meeting place.

But while the other housemates were reunited with loved ones when it came to Bradley’s turn to sit anxiously on the park bench, he was shocked to be greeted by host AJ.

She broke the news to the star that he wouldn’t get to see a loved one, as she instead let him know he would be kicked out after receiving the fewest votes.

His housemates gasped in shock at the revelation as Bradley tried to hide his disappointment.

He gave AJ a hug and said: ‘I’ve had so much fun. I didn’t think I would make it this far. I’m so proud of everyone and I’m very thankful, very grateful and very happy.’

Bradley was able to go back to the house one last time to say goodbye before being sent home in a backdoor eviction.

He hugged the other celebrities and said: ‘I love you all so much, it’s fine! I have had the best time, I really have, thank you all so much. I’m so proud of myself.’

A weeping fern said, “So you should be, we’re all proud of you.”
