BIG Brother housemate Elsa Rae was left in tears as she revealed her “overwhelming” fears about her relationship.

Elsa soon found herself sobbing as she expressed her fear of getting “hurt,” making a subtle reference to her past relationship with the controversial Ed Matthews.

As the latest episode began, Elsa suggested to Marcus that they should stop sharing a bed.

The blonde beauty seemed to be pushing him out of her bed, despite having spent previous nights together.

She questioned him about whether he could handle sleeping alone, as the situation became tense for both of them.

Later, Elsa confided in Jenny about her feelings for Marcus.

She admitted feeling “confused” as she started to develop feelings for him.

However, it quickly became clear that she was worried he might be interested in someone else.

Speaking candidly in the Diary Room, Elsa shared: “I am feeling overwhelmed and I am just overthinking the situation with Marcus.”

“I feel like we are getting a bit too close too soon, and I don’t want to jeopardize the friendship we have.”

“We share a really funny and close bond.”

“I haven’t laughed with anyone like this in a long time.”

Elsa then began to cry as she sobbed in the Diary Room chair.

She expressed: “I am just feeling overwhelmed by all these emotions.”

“I didn’t expect any of this. It is nice, but it is also frightening.”

When Big Brother asked how she felt about Marcus, she shyly admitted: “I really like him.”

Later, the couple went to the garden to have an honest discussion.

Elsa told him that he might find a “close bond” with someone else if she were to leave.

She then said: “It’s scary because you can feel one way, but what if things change outside? Not in terms of feelings, but in how someone behaves.”

Marcus asked her: “So you’re keeping your guard up because of that?”

“For me, it’s like we are in here, and I enjoy your company. I think that would continue outside.”

“I’m not worried about that.”

Elsa asked: “You don’t have any doubts?”

Marcus confirmed he did not, and the two agreed to continue as they were, hoping Elsa’s doubts would fade.
