BIG Brother star Emma Morgan is nursing a secret heartache – after she came out of the house to find her son had been remanded into prison after being charged with possession of cocaine and axe.
Former Page 3 model Emma, 53, finished third in the reality TV show which started on October 6 and finished on Friday with Ali Bromley crowned winner.
But while the mum of three was appearing on TV, her son Flynn Wilson, 21, was hauled before magistrates after being charged with multiple offences.
Wilson, of Trafford, Gtr Manchester, is alleged to have been found to be in possession of cocaine on or before 4 November.
And in April he is alleged to have attempted to rob another man of cocaine at a flat close to his mum’s property in Wythenshawe, Gtr Manchester.
When cops searched that property, they found an axe which they believe he used to threaten the man with and an amount of cannabis.
Wilson appeared in court and has been remanded into custody at HMP Forest Bank in Salford, Gtr Manchester.
Witnesses told The Sun the man who is the alleged victim of the assault spent time in hospital before being released.
He has now disappeared from the area where he previously lived.
One local told The Sun: “She used to be a Page 3 model and actress, so I’m not surprised she went on.
“The only thing that surprised me is how long she was in there.”
Prior to entering the Big Brother house the beautician married Lee Taberer, 53, who was a close friend of Salford gangster Paul Massey.
Taberer, jailed for a £1m blackmail plot in 2010 when he threatened to kidnap a businessman’s family, was among the first on the scene when Massey was executed by an assassin outside his home in July 2015.
Taberer arrived at the murder scene before police and began making house-to-house enquiries with another man.
They both refused to co-operate with murder cops.
Emma and Taberer are believed to have split up, despite only being married a year.
After leaving the house, Emma, who has also appeared as an actress playing small parts in Coronation Street and Hollyoaks, described her time on telly as “an unforgettable experience”.
She added: “To come out 3rd and to feel so much love and support is beyond words.
“I’ve made some lifelong friends and shared this journey with them creating bonds like no other. I’ve made the best memories which I’ll cherish forever.
“Thank you Big Bother, for having me and thankyou to everyone that voted along the way. Still can’t believe I made it to the final!!!”
Emma was contacted for comment.
