Angie Bowie has left Celebrity Big Brother "feeling unwell".

A Channel 5 spokesperson said: "After being unwell for a few days, Angie Bowie has decided to leave the Celebrity Big Brother House.

"Her exit will be addressed in tonight’s live show on Channel 5 at 9pm."

The 66-year-old former wife of the late musician David Bowie learned of her ex-husband's death on the show.

Ofcom told ITV News that it had received more than 200 complaints about the coverage.

Her departure follows David Gest's early exit yesterday due to health problems.

Gest's health issues had earlier caused confusion in the house. When David Bowie's death was announced to Angie, she told her fellow housemates, "David is dead."

The news quickly spread through the house, with housemates believing it was Gest, rather than David Bowie who had died.
