It’s been 24 years since Narinder Kaur left the Big Brother house, but there’s one thing she still hasn’t ‘forgiven’ the show’s bosses for.

The TV presenter, who rose to fame on the second series of the UK’s Big Brother in 2001, made television history as the first British-Indian contestant o enter the reality TV house.

But more than two decades later, Narinder, 54, joked that she still holds a grudge against producers for banning contestants from wearing makeup during their time on the show.

"We all just had to look like, I don't know, just like we were going on a camping site for like weeks with nothing but, you know, four items,” she told The Mirror.

“‘I'll never forget that one, I never will...I look at them now and I'm thinking, I don't care, I can't watch it, they're allowed makeup."

Narinder admitted that being in the Big Brother house was one of the toughest experiences of her life, particularly because she was cut off from her loved ones.

She also opened up about how cruel comments about her appearance after leaving the show knocked her confidence and left her feeling under pressure to pay more attention to her looks and skincare.

The former housemate revealed that people often ask why she looks better now than she did during her time on the programme, something she partly attributes to the strict no-makeup rule.

She also addressed speculation that she has undergone cosmetic surgery, insisting she has never gone under the knife.

"I also get loads of people saying, 'You've had surgery.' I've never had surgery... There's been no surgery, not one bit of surgery I've ever had,” she told the newspaper.

Instead, Narinder said she now focuses on maintaining her appearance through regular gym routines and targeted beauty treatments.

She told The Mirror that she visits Dr Sabika Karim who focuses on skin wellbeing and health as opposed to major plastic surgery.

Dr Karim told the newspaper that alongside a little filler and anti-wrinkle injections, Narinder has focused on skin treatments. These include microneedling and laser treatments to reduce pigmentation and inflammation.
