Celebrity Big Brother sparked confusion Monday when contestant Trisha Goddard, 67, nominated Patsy Palmer, 52, for eviction, calling her a “fellow American” — despite both stars being born and raised in London.

Trisha, a TV personality from Hackney, claimed their “New York vs. Los Angeles” lifestyles made them incompatible. She argued Patsy, an EastEnders icon, was “too fragile” for the show due to her LA mindset, while she herself had a tougher “Big Apple” attitude.

Fans quickly pointed out the irony: Patsy was born in Bethnal Green and rose to fame as Bianca Jackson on EastEnders before relocating to Malibu in 2014. Trisha, meanwhile, moved to upstate New York in 2010 but grew up in London.

Viewers React
Social media erupted with criticism. One user tweeted, “Trisha saying she’s from New York and Patsy’s from LA? They’re both from EAST LONDON. This is ridiculous.” Another added, “Trisha’s reaching for drama. They’re as American as tea and crumpets.”

During nominations, Trisha doubled down: “Patsy’s very LA — she needs everything to be zen. I’m New York. We’re direct. It’s just not working.” Patsy, known for her no-nonsense persona, shrugged off the dig, telling housemates, “I’m proud of my roots. LA’s my home now, but London made me.”

Background Check

• Trisha: Born in Hackney, hosted her UK talk show Trisha from 1998–2010 before moving to the U.S.
• Patsy: Born in Bethnal Green, starred in EastEnders from 1993–2014, then moved to Malibu with her family.

The Fallout
The nomination has fueled speculation of a growing rift between the two. While Patsy avoided direct confrontation, insiders suggest tensions over their differing lifestyles — Patsy’s wellness-focused routine vs. Trisha’s blunt approach — are escalating.

Fans now await Tuesday’s eviction results, with many calling the “American” argument a stretch. As one viewer put it: “Next they’ll say the Queen was from Texas.”
