Helen Wood, best known for reportedly having an affair with a Premier League footballer, has won Big Brother 2014.

The 27-year-old beat Northern Irish teenager Ashleigh Coyle to claim first place.

Looking back on her time in the house Wood said: "I need to learn to bite my tongue more."

Emma Willis, who hosts the Channel 5 reality show, said it was the first time in the programme's history two women had made it to the final two.

Woods, who is from Bolton, has a 10-year-old son and managed to have her place in the final guaranteed during the first week of the series.

Without it she said she thinks she would have "probably been out the first or second week".

She hit the headlines three years ago when she was involved in a tabloid sex scandal, but these days she claims to celibate.

Ashleigh Coyle, 18, didn't appear too disappointed with second place.

She screamed with excitement and hugged Helen when the result was read out.

Christopher Hall, 23, from County Fermanagh, came third and said it had been "a really tense house".

Celebrity Big Brother starts on Monday night.
