Ian "H" Watkins has admitted that he expects Jade Goody to bounce back from the controversy surrounding her Celebrity Big Brother stint.

The former Steps star, who finished in fourth place on the show last month, explained that he believes Jade's team will be able to salvage her career.

"I have a sneaky feeling Jade will turn it all on its head," Ian told Celebs on Sunday. "That cat's got 20 lives. How she'll do it I don't know, but she's got good people around her to choreograph and orchestrate her words."

Watkins confessed that he has little sympathy for Goody and Jo O'Meara, who are both reportedly suffering from depression after being accused of bullying Shilpa Shetty on the show.

"It's hard, because they should have known better," Ian said. "They're adults - they should know that words have repercussions."

On Danielle Lloyd's behaviour, he added: "I don't think she's been let off the hook, but although she's 23, she's a very young 23. That's not an excuse, but I think that's why people will forgive her."
