Emma Willis has hinted she will quit 'Big Brother' if it turns nasty.
The 41-year-old presenter has been hosting the celebrity and civilian versions of the reality TV show since 2011 and, although she thoroughly enjoys it, she has implied she will walk away if things start to turn toxic in the infamous house.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: "It gets really exhausting when they're at each other's throats all the time. And it had kind of become very young and much more about arguments and having stress levels through the roof.
"This series was a much more fun house. So if it stays like that then yeah, I'd love to stay. I do think that if you get 'Big Brother' right, if you keep the essentials of what is is - a psychological experiment - it's something that can keep going. I'm a nosy neighbour so for me it's perfect television."
However, the brunette beauty may not get the decision to walk away on her own accord as it's believed Channel 5 are considering axing the whole show next year.
The rumours come months after the channel's boss Ben Frow admitted that he was fed up of spending millions of pounds on a show that sees a plummet in ratings.
The current deal with Channel Five is expected to run out at the end of 2018 and Ben would be "happier" if the show was not on it.
He said: "I would be much happier with a channel that didn't have Big Brother on it. I love the ratings but I want to create our own programmes."
'Big Brother' has kick-started the careers of unknown stars such as the late Jade Goody, Alison Hammond and Brian Dowling - turning them into household names since it started on Channel Four before switching to Channel Five in 2011.
But Ben believes there must be something wrong with the format as young people would be rushing to sign up - like they have done with ITV's 'Love Island'.
He said: "I've got 'Big Brother' which has declined, declined, declined."
It's believed Ben is on a mission to make Channel 5 more "upmarket" by featuring documentaries and reality shows such as 'Make or Break'.
The source said: "Big Brother is not one of Ben's babies so he does not feel as passionately about it as some other projects.
"There is also the fact that it has lots of controversy and lots of cost which used to be balanced by the fact it had big ratings and was good for advertising, but that is not as true in 2017 and it has less impact each year.
"It is not must see TV anymore as it used to be a decade ago."
Despite Ben's concerns, a spokesman for the channel said "no decision had been made" beyond this year as to whether 'Big Brother' would get scrapped.
