Celebrity Big Brother star Ryan Thomas burst into tears as he received a letter from home reassuring him everything was going to be alright.

The former Coronation Street star has had a tough few days in the house after being accused by Roxanne Pallett, who has since walked from the house, of “punching” her in the ribs.

After leaving the house to a fierce backlash, Pallett retracted the claims - which Thomas refuted – and told both Jeremy Vine and Emma Willis that she “got it wrong ”.

And Thomas let all his emotions out as Sally Morgan read out a letter from his brother Scott, telling him that he has been coming across well in the house.

Morgan, selected by Thomas to read, began: “Dear Ryan, I don't think this is any surprise to you but it’s Scott writing this letter, you know I love a good essay.

“Honestly bro, you don't know how proud we all are of you. You really have taken yourself out of your comfort zone and, trust me, it's been well worth it.

“You've shown the nation just how amazing you really are and carried yourself so well. I know you'll be worried how you're coming across, but we want you to know that you've absolutely nothing to worry about.

“Everyone has seen the real you,” Scott had added as Thomas continued to sob into his hands.

The letter continued to say that Thomas’ daughter Scarlett has been watching some clips of him inside the house and has “smiled from ear-to-ear” at them as well as adding that girlfriend Lucy Mecklenburgh is proud.

Viewers were holding back tears of their own listening to the emotional letter, quickly flooding social media with comments about the moment and support for Thomas.

One wrote: “Trying not to bawl at the bus stop watching Ryan’s letter from home #cbb.”

While another said: “Anyone else crying at Ryan’s letter from Home? No? Just me #cbb.”

“I’m so happy ryan got his letter from scott he deserves it after what he has been put through these past couple of days. I’m also a mess after listening to sally reading the letter but so happy for him #cbb @ryanjamesthomas @scottyspecial,” commented somebody else.

Celebrity Big Brother continues Wednesday at 9pm on Channel 5.
