Roxanne Pallett’s fiancé Lee Walton has reportedly broken his silence on her budding romance with Ben Jardine in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

Former Emmerdale actress Pallett and Married at First Sight’s Jardine have been under the microscope since bonding during their time on the Channel 5 reality show.

However, despite rising concerns from the housemates after Jardine admitted his feelings for Pallett, Walton has now insisted that their relationship can withstand anything.

Speaking to New Magazine, Walton said: “I am not worried. I know she loves me and I love her and we’re strong.

“It's not like we're fresh into the relationship.”

He continued: "I don't think she would have gone in if she wasn't 100 per cent strong about how we are.

"Nothing will change when she gets out, other than we'll get married."

​Explaining why Jardine and Pallett get on so well, Walton added: “He’s quite hyper, like Rox – always on the go, Rox does have an off button, but only I know how to work it.

“It’s between her eyebrows and I stroke it in a circular motion at night time and it makes her fall asleep.”

Walton and Pallett have been together for nine months and became engaged after one week of dating.
