Let’s delve into the drama behind Saskia’s time in The Big Brother House; what happened after her eviction, AND her colourful dating past.
Her time on the show
12 years ago Saskia entered the Big Brother House for the 6th season alongside Orlaith McCallister, Makosi Musambasi and Kinga Karolczak. She soon made an impression on both her fellow housemates and the public. Before she had appeared on the show she’d starred in Casualty and The Bill, as well as numerous adverts. And, after the show had finished she pursued a career in acting, including tarring in a TV mini-series in 2008 called Dead Set.

The reality star managed a long stint in the house and people will probably remember her best for her relationship with Maxwell Ward. On day 12 it was revealed that the House would be facing a public vote as a result of someone in the housebreaking the rules. Vanessa had discussed the upcoming nominations. But, on day 15 the election announced that Lesley would be evicted from the house.

Saskia’s time in the house came to an end on day 36. After receiving four votes from her fellow contestants, Saskia faced the public vote against her partner Maxwell. After she received 71% she became the next to leave.
The relationship after the show
What happened to the two love birds? Well, the pair proved that they weren’t just a showmance. They actually lived together after the show. They made it to a year before finally splitting and moving on from one another.
In 2010 with Maxwell did an interview with Saskia for Heat magazine.
Maxwell revealed:
‘I’m not blowing my own trumpet, but if I hadn’t got with you [Saskia], I would’ve won the show hands down! If I had the time again, and I’m sure you’d say the same thing, I wouldn’t have got with you and you wouldn’t have got with me.”

Her secret boyfriend
BUT, all wasn’t as it seemed. Producers had wants the brunette beauty on the show since first spotting her, but of course, they strongly encouraged her to be single on the show. So, when Saskia entered the show, what she didn’t reveal was that she had previously been in a relationship with Soccer player Scott Bennetts.
Bennets revealed he was distraught after watching his girlfriend passionately kissing her co-star. Scott had suddenly been left blanked by Saskia on Big Brother.
Scott, 24 – who has been blanked out of Saskia’s life by TV bosses because they want viewers to think she is single – said: “I felt sick as I watched her kiss Maxwell. I just don’t know if I can go on seeing her now.”

The pair had discussed marriage
According to Scott, the pair had been discussing marriage just a few days before Saskia suddenly leaving for the show.
As well as the footballer having to watch X-rated conversations between his girlfriend and her new partner he also revealed how he felt sick when witnessing Maxwell stroking her arm. According to Scott:
“I felt sick when she kissed him. And he’s been stroking her arm and doing this thing Saskia and I do, called a ‘tickly rub’. When we’re together she loves to be stroked softly on the back of the arm. Watching Maxwell do it to her really got to me because that is really personal to us.”
He also revealed that when he and Saskia from Big Brother first got together, she had a boyfriend at the time. The pair hooked up while she was still in a relationship with another man.
