'It's a draining situation': CBB's Jamie O'Hara reveals he's struggling to pay ex-wife Danielle Lloyd's £15,000-a-month maintenance as he confesses he's 'not on that money no more'
While he was warned not to discuss his ex-wife Danielle Lloyd on his first reality TV stint.
It appears former footballer Jamie O'Hara is up for taking the risk as he revealed he's 'trying to re-build' himself following their divorce on Saturday night's episode of Celebrity Big Brother.
The 30-year-old - who separated from the model in 2014 after an alleged infidelity - is reportedly paying the 33-year-old £15,000-a-month in maintenance to help support her and their three boys; Archie, six, Harry, five, and George, two.

'Draining': Jamie O'Hara admitted he's 'trying to re-build' himself following his divorce from Danielle Lloyd
Previously discussing his spousal support on Twitter in April 2016, he claimed he paid '£13k mortgage and all bills paid for, £2,500k maintenance, £500 nursery fees'.
Now opening up about his stress, the sports star insisted his financial predicament is 'a draining situation' to his fellow housemates.
He divulged: 'When I was with her, I was earning really good money and she kind of expected that to continue.
'I'm not on that money no more! It's such a draining situation…I'm trying to re-build myself.'
Jamie has been very open about his relationship with Danielle in the house, despite him revealing she had asked him not to talk about her during his time on the Channel 5 show.

The athlete, who is currently without a club after Gillingham didn't renew his contract, first joked in his CBB introductory video: 'I'm best known for my years at Tottenham and being married to Danielle Lloyd...didn't go too well that one.'
Talking of settling down so young, having become engaged to the beauty at 23 years old, the former Tottenham Hotspur player confessed to Nicola McClean: 'I'm massive on marriage. My relationship was wild.
Before he added of the relationship's breakdown: 'Footballer, young kid, had everything then you just think, f**k it. I look back on things and think what a f**ing pr**k.'

In addition, the footballer had also revealed to The Sun just before entering the famous Borehamwood mansion that he had definitely 'lost a few quid' in his divorce.
Clearly infuriated by his comments, the former glamour model appeared to retaliate by retweeting a post on the social media site which read: 'I think he missed out the fact that every @OfficialWolves fan hated him and he cheated on @MissDLloyd.'
Danielle and Jamie began dating in April 2009 and became engaged just eight months later, before tying the knot in 2012.
However in July 2014, after welcoming sons Archie, six, Harry, five, and George, two, together, it was alleged that Jamie had cheated on his wife - with Danielle filing for divorce just three months later.
