HE has barely been in the Big Brother house 24 hours and already the knives are out for Blackpool lad Ryan, who viewers are convinced is lying about his age.
The contestant has declared himself to be 28-years-old, but Big Brother fans have flooded social media with comments about his maturity.

Now fans are convinced that he’s lying about his age as he looks much older[/caption]
One said: “Why is Ryan lying about his age, 28 my a***.”
Another commented: “Ryan is a transphobe with a hairline like that, he’s apparently 29, you age terribly when you’re evil.”
Meanwhile another said: “If Ryan identifies as 28, it shows that hate really does age you.”
Indeed Ryan has already divided opinion both in and outside the Big Brother house with his anti woke views, after he made a dig at those who self-identify during his introductory VT.
The northerner, who currently lives in Stockport and works in marketing and events, vowed to “shake up” the house in his piece-to-camera.
He said: “I feel like over the recent years, it’s gone a bit tame and people are in there for other motives.
“I think having someone normal like me in there will shake it up.”
But his controversial views immediately set him at odds with his fans after he said: “He said: “I think I’m strong and opinionated. There’s a lot of woke people out there.
“It’s all well and good if you want to use certain pronouns, and I get that, but it gets a bit confusing sometimes with people identifying as a spoon or whatnot.”
Following his entrance interview with hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best, Ryan received a chorus of boos from the crowd.
The launch show saw 16 new housemates move into the Big Brother house.
Former Page Three girl and soap actress Emma Morgan, 53, is one of them.
She said: “To get this opportunity at my age, I wasn’t expecting it. I was getting ready to put my feet up and do a bit of knitting.”
And amputee footballer Thomas Atkinson, 20, from Carlisle, comes to the house fresh from captaining his side to victory in the FA Disability Cup.
The goalkeeper, who was born without a left hand, was also told he would never walk after having his left leg amputated when he was two.
But he now has a total of 26 caps with the England Amputee national team.
