The 35-year-old actress walked out of the 'CBB' house following a dramatic few days in which she has been blasted for accusing housemate Ryan Thomas of "assault" after a play fight and her representatives insist the star thought carefully about her decision.
Her rep said in a statement: "Roxanne decided to leave the CBB house late last night after deliberating for two days with some sensitive issues she felt strongly about. 'She has now been reunited with her fiancé and family and thanks everyone for their support during her time in the show."
It has been claimed that Roxanne - who was one of the show's highest paid stars ever with a fee of £750,000 - could also be set to lose her money after walking out.
Former co-star Jermaine Pennant told the remaining contestants: "The thing is if you leave you don't get your fee."
Before Roxanne quit, her fellow housemates predicted that she would walk out of the house.
Dan Osborne said: "She's been caught out and she must know she is part of the reason that Ben Jardin's gone. And also you can hear everyone shouting get Roxanne out - like come on."
Gabby Allen added: "Yeah, you don't want to leave to that do you?"
After he was evicted on Friday's (31.08.18) show, Ben insisted he didn't regret the "closeness" he had with Roxanne in the house, or the attraction he felt for the actress, who is engaged to steelworker Lee Walton.
He said: "I don't regret anything that happened between me and Roxanne. People have always said 'calm down Ben', she just said 'keep going Ben'. She brought the best out of me. I live like that myself.
"I was in a relationship for 13 years and she went off with another man, I don't want to be that guy. Yeah, you're in a magnified situation and there was a genuine attraction there but remember she is an engaged woman. I just don't want to be that guy."
