Danniella Westbrook’s publicity team have made a pretty serious blunder while their client is in the ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ house, accidentally re-tweeting a fan’s post which claimed she would buy ‘substantial amounts of cocaine’ if she won the reality show.

The 42 year old former ‘EastEnders’ star is oblivious to the storm that the blunder seems to have triggered, as access to social media accounts are obviously denied while on ‘CBB’. “Everyone vote @westbrookdanni she's going to buy a substantial amount of cocaine if she wins and throw a big party” the rather irresponsible post read.

Many wondered how the accident could have happened, as there’s obviously no evidence that Westbrook intends to do any such thing. “Ffs who needs friends like this dropping your 'mate' right on to the attention of the dealers for self-publicity,” one Twitter user replied.

Another said: “Why would you RT this ridiculous tweet for Danniella? Who is running her Twitter? Wrong and damaging! Delete!”

A spokesperson for former soap star, who has in the past been open about her struggles with substance abuse and once said that she had a £500 a day habit, told the MailOnline that they rectified the mistake as quickly as possible, but that unfortunately the damage was done.

“The retweet was up for literally three seconds, before we realised what had happened and took it down. We get hundreds, if not thousands of tweets every evening and we have three people on her social media team working on it while she's in the house.”

“We're on it full time - and unfortunately, this was retweeted. As soon as we saw the full content, it was taken off. Danniella can't tweet from the house obviously and she is completely clean.”

An object lesson in the dangers of tweeting without due care and attention.
