Strictly's Nikita Kuzmin has CBB fans 'in tears' over kind act for Colson Smith

Celebrity Big Brother viewers have described Nikita Kuzmin as an "absolute gem" and "the sweetest" after he supported co-star Colson Smith on the latest episode.

Wednesday night's episode of the ITV show saw the ten housemates take part in a game of "jelly bean roulette". They were each given either a 'sweet' or 'sour' question about the group, based on which jelly bean they picked.

Colson, 25, ended up in tears after Levi Roots, 65, had to name the "most boring" housemate. He said: "Pre-yesterday, I would have said it would have been Colson. But it's not because of how he overcome the singing competition."

Following the game, Colson headed to the bathroom and was heard composing himself in the toilet. He appeared to be emotional in the cubicle. Whilst the Coronation Street actor was in the toilet, his co-star Nikita, 26, waited for him.

Bradley Riches, 22, later joined him in the bathroom and when Colson finally emerged from the cubicle, Nikita greeted him with open arms. They were seen embracing moments later, before having a group hug with Bradley.

Strictly Come Dancing star Nikita reassured Colson, saying: "You're not boring. We don't think you're boring." He went on to tease: "Even after your poop, you smell really good mate." And he added: "It's just one person's opinion. And it doesn't really matter because no one else thinks that."

Fans took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts on the scene. One person tweeted: "I love that Nikita is just sat outside the toilet waiting for Colson. The kindest soul." Another person said: "He is an absolute gem."

A third wrote: "What a pure sweet boy Nikita is, I just love him." Alongside crying emojis, someone wrote: "Colson crying has broken me and Nikita waiting outside the toilet to comfort him." Another fan reacted: "I LOVE HIM SOOO BAD."

One person wrote alongside a teary-eyed emoji: "Nikita just sitting outside the bathroom waiting for Colson, my heart." Whilst someone else said: "Aww bless Nikita for waiting for Colson all that time, just to make sure he's ok. Too cute."

Another fan wrote: "Nikita just respectfully waiting for Colson in the bathroom to give him time before hugging him was so [teary-eyed emojis]." Someone reacted: "Nikita and Bradley comforting Colson was such a lovely moment."

Others described Nikita as "the sweetest." Whilst another viewer tweeted recently following the scene: Nikita giving Colson his time to be upset but being there for him when he gets out (with Brad too). What a fantastic man!"

One person wrote in a post on the platform: "Colson has good new friends in Nikita and Bradley. I like how Nikita stayed with Colson before he come out of the toilet to see if he was ok and nice from Bradley to check on him too."

Celebrity Big Brother continues tonight on ITV and ITVX from 9pm. Previous episodes are available through the streaming platform.
