Michelle and Stuart may have become the first Big Brother couple to have sex in the house. 

Bookies are convinced the pair have made history by going the whole way, and have paid out to punters who bet on sex taking place on the show.

Michelle and Stuart pillow talk

The couple had a steamy session hidden under the dining room table, sparking the speculation.

They spent an hour gasping and moaning in the early hours of Tuesday in their makeshift bed which Michelle carefully built to stop the cameras seeing inside. 

At first, Stuart, 20, tried to fight off Michelle's attempts to get him inside the improvised love shack made from stools and cushions. 

But once the 23-year-old temptress persuaded him to join her, Michelle was finally able to put the disappointment of not being bride in the Big Brother mock wedding behind her. 

In a coded conversation with fellow housemate Shell, aspiring glamour model Michelle seemed to confirm the speculation by hinting that the pair did more than just kiss and cuddle under the table. 

Shell asked: "Did he use a tool to give it to you or did he use his hands?" 

"A tool," Michelle giggled. 

Meanwhile, Daniel, Nadia and jungle cats Victor and Jason are this week's nominees for eviction.
