Big Brother champ Sam: I’ll go back to work at Debenhams
SAM Evans has told how he will go back to work at Debenhams — despite pocketing a £100k prize for winning Big Brother.
And despite rolling in cash, he has insisted that he'll still "do a shift or two" at his old workplace - in the stockroom of the popular department store.
He told TV Biz: "I will go back to work. A couple of shifts now and again, just so I'm keeping myself in a job. But I'd love to do some things regarding TV. I'd definitely take a few opportunities."
The generous 23-year-old, who was born with 70-80 per cent hearing loss, has vowed to donate £25k to charity.
Talking about the type of charities he would like to support, he said: "Definitely something to do with hearing aids, or helping children have a better experience in life. I'd like to provide money to a company that can use it to make better hearing aids or invest in speech therapists. So I can give deaf children a better way of life."
Does Sam think that he will look back on his decision with any regrets in years to come?
He said: "A hundred grand is a lot of money. Even if I give away a generous amount of money, I still have a lot left over.
"I don't think I'd ever regret it as I feel very strongly about it."
Sam, dubbed the Welsh Harry Styles because of his curly hair, developed a close friendship with housemate Gina Rio, who he has admitted is his type of girl.
But he insisted their relationship was strictly platonic, as she has a boyfriend.
He said: "She gave me a lot of time in the house and we had a good connection and she's a very beautiful woman. I found her really special because she made me feel a lot better in the house.
"I had to keep my distance as she has a boyfriend and I respect that. He's a cool guy, so nothing is going to happen."
Sam's victory, which aired on Channel 5 on Monday night, comes just days before Celebrity Big Brother begins, with stars such as Courtney Stodden, Dustin Diamond and Sophie Anderton rumoured to be entering the house.
Sam — who confessed to having a crush on show host Emma Willis — said: "I'd be interested to see one of the Saturdays going on as they are pretty and quite bubbly. I think they'd be quite funny. Jessica Alba - I've really got the hots for her... and Anne Robinson!"
