What happened to Alex Sibley?

Big Brother premiered on Channel 4 on 24 May 2002 and lasted nine weeks (64 days) until the live finale on 26 July 2002. The third edition saw a ratings increase for the series, with over 8.6 million votes cast to determine the winner of the series. 

Alex Sibley finished in third place in the series, winning 27 per cent of the vote.

After leaving the show, he was offered a number of telly deals – including his own Nickelodeon show.

Recently opening up about the incident to The Sun, he said: “A major thing happened in my life. A guy ran into the side of my car and died from his injuries. 

“I lost my kids TV programme. I had a live show on Nickelodeon, and I was about to do panto.”

“Because that all lost I then started f***ing hating Big Brother because it was my stepping stone into doing something else. I was making a lot of money. The first year I made nearly £250,000 which is insane. Every year after that I used to be a little bit excited watching it, but then it would bring back some bad memories.

Alex Sibley has always denied dangerous driving, and the case against him was dropped in 2006. 

He added: “If you Google me it will say I was involved in an accident where someone died. 

“It wasn’t my fault though, but it’s stuck.

“All I did was go to pick up my friend from the airport, and the police completely destroyed my career.”

Since the crash, Alex, who is married to a French ballerina and has four children under the age of six, has worked in affordable housing.

His attempts to secure a celebrity agent to revive his media career fell on deaf ears. He has expressed his wish to join the line-up of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!, revealing that he has messaged the producers for the last ‘four or five years’.
