FORMER Big Brother presenter Emma Willis has broken her silence after being replaced.
The 47-year-old was the host of the iconic reality show when it ran on Channel 5.
Emma took over from Brian Dowling in 2013 and fronted both Big Brother and its celebrity editions until its axe in 2018.
And, following the news that AJ Odudu and Will Best are the new co-hosts for the rebooted series on ITV, Emma has broken her silence.
The star appears to be approving of the pair taking over hosting duties from her.

Taking to Instagram, Emma shared AJ's post of the new Big Brother trailer on her story.
She wrote alongside the clip: "This makes me very happy in every way."
Meanwhile, Rylan, who presented Big Brother's Bit on the Side, has yet to publicly acknowledge the announcement.
Speaking about her new role, AJ told fans: “This is not a drill! I’m beyond excited to finally be able to say that, I am hosting Big Brother!
“I couldn't be more ecstatic to front such an iconic show and to do it alongside my amazing friend @iamwillbest is the icing on the cake. Get ready to be obsessed!
“Big Brother House, I'm coming to get you!”
The Strictly star also took to her stories to post the same video, this time writing: “Heading to the diary room,” along with an eye emoji.
Big Brother will return later this year on ITV2 and ITVX.
