DISGRACED Big Brother star Trish Balusa has had an emotional reunion with her young son after being evicted from the house.<\/p>\n
The eliminated reality star had been a fan favourite until historic racist and homophobic tweets emerged following her exit.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
The shocking Twitter<\/span> posts from 2012 led to Trish being banned from Big Brother spin-off show Late and Live.<\/p>\n She was comforted by her son as she returned home, receiving a big hug and kisses.<\/p>\n Sharing the moment on Instagram<\/span>, Trish wrote: "When your son missed you too much.<\/p>\n "Reunited at last I couldn't even take a clear picture because of the constant kisses."<\/p>\n After her offensive tweets surfaced over the weekend, the 33-year-old deleted her X account, formerly known as Twitter, before setting up a new one to issue a statement to fans.<\/p>\n She apologised to fans saying there were "no excuses" for her comments.<\/p>\n Trish wrote: "I'm aware that some very concerning old tweets of mine have resurfaced and I would like to sincerely apologise for the harmful stereotypes I perpetuated and the pain I have cause to the marginalised communities and groups of people mentioned.<\/p>\n "There are no excuses for the ignorance that I showed and I am deeply disappointed, embarrassed and ashamed that I once made such comments.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "I have come a very long way since by educating myself and being educated by others on the impact and harm these views cause.<\/p>\n "It is part of the reason why I am so passionate about standing up for others and holding myself to a high standard of responsibility and accountability for my actions.<\/p>\n "I appreciate the support you've all given me on the show and I understand you feel disappointed.<\/p>\n "I know apologies can seem convenient in these circumstances but I mean it from the bottom of my heart; I am truly sorry.<\/p>\n "I hope it is possible for you to offer me grace and believe that people can change.<\/p>\n "I am committed to being the person I am now, the person you have known me as – someone who speaks up, stands for what they believe in and is always open to growth and accountability. Love Trish."<\/p>\n Trish is being supported in line with Big Brother's welfare protocols.<\/p>\n A spokesperson for Big Brother told The Sun: \u201cThis weekend, we have been made aware of concerning historical tweets. <\/p>\n "We are currently looking into why they were not identified by the independent supplier we engage to review<\/span> the digital footprint of potential Housemates as part of our pre-checks.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans were furious to discover the offensive posts from 2012 about gay and Asian people.<\/p>\n There are also vile Hitler tweets sent by Trish circulating online, all of which The Sun does not wish to repeat.<\/p>\n The Sun reported calls for Trish to be "cancelled" – having been hailed as a "national icon" by some fans following her appearance on Big Brother.<\/p>\n Viewers were furious when she was evicted on Friday night – moments after crowds chanted "Trish for the win".<\/p>\n They have since turned on the former housemate after discovering the offensive tweets.<\/p>\n One fan wrote: "I am so saddened to read all these tweets from Trish over the past few years.<\/p>\n "I was sad she was evicted yesterday but honestly I\u2019m glad she didn\u2019t win in hindsight."<\/p>\n Another fan wrote: "In just a day Trish went from being the nation's sweetheart and being chanted to win to then getting evicted 30 seconds later, became a twitter icon, then got cancelled so hard she had to deactivate."<\/p>\nREAD MORE ON BIG BROTHER<\/h2>\n
