Carole Malone has described Dirk Benedict as a "selfish misogynist".
In her Sunday Mirror column today, the journalist has expressed her disgust at Dirk's reaction to Cleo's teasing last weekend.
"The trouble with the glorious Cleo Rocos is that she's way too nice for her own good," Carole explained. "Having been evicted from the Celeb BB house largely because of her altercation with Dirk (or Duck as Shilpa so rightly calls him) she still can't say what I can - that he's a selfish misogynist with zero sense of humour."
The 47-year-old has claimed that Dirk once told her that he believed women should stay at home with their children rather than going to work, and had no time for her when she disagreed with his views.
"His treatment of Cleo was appalling," she continued. "He accused her of having a fat a**e and a middle-aged cleavage simply because, with her alter ego Tiara, she showed what a repressed, jumped up moody old chauvinist he is."
