George was the 3rd housemate to leave the Big Brother house without being evicted this year. After the departures of Shahbaz and then Dawn, George asked to leave on Tuesday. In the diary room, he said:

My reason for leaving is the thought of fame and how I would like to continue my private life - and fame is too much for me,” he said. “I love everyone here and everything in the House.

His departure appeared to hit Grace the hardest as she cried in the bathroom. However, she soon seemed to get over it, cuddling up with Mikey in bed that night!
