The Princess of Wales’s uncle has become the first person to be evicted from Celebrity Big Brother.
The 58-year-old businessman was voted out by the public after just four nights.
Kensington Palace aides were thought to be relieved that his time on the ITV1 show had ended after he used the platform to speak extensively about the Royal family.
After leaving the house, Mr Goldsmith admitted it had taken him a while to acclimatise.
He said he felt as though he had been walking around with a target on his back after being nominated for eviction by fellow housemate Sharon Osborne.
He also said he had been asked repeatedly about the Royal family because the housemates didn’t know what else to ask him.
Mr Goldsmith, wearing a denim shirt, said in his first exit interview: “This is the first television programme that I have ever done, my comfort zone is back in Slough, it took me a while to acclimatise.”
He said he was “self-doubting” when he joined the ITV show, and he should have been “more authentic”. “I could have been way more gregarious,” he said.
Speaking about his many references to the royal family, he said: “People were asking me a lot of questions specifically about that because they didn’t know what to ask me. And I did volunteer it a lot.”
“First time on TV and I cried like a baby, twice,” he said about his experience.
‘One day I’m Gary, the next I’m a national villain’
In the Friday episode, Mr Goldsmith said that he had not found “true peace” during one Big Brother task.
“I think peace is something always to be striving for,” he said.
“I thought I was having a really cool life until something hits you. One day I was Gary, a businessman having a laugh with a great family in a good place.
“And the next minute I’m a national villain. If any of you thought to Google me, it is just shit, but it’s not me.
“So, I don’t really know what true peace is if I’m honest.”
The brother of Kate’s mother, Carole Middleton, was fined £5,000 and given a community order in November 2017 after admitting he assaulted his wife in a drunken argument.
Mr Goldsmith’s inclusion on the show was previously criticised by Women’s Aid, who advised the programme to consider his appearance.
In a statement from the show, Mr Goldsmith previously said: “I’m not perfect and I made a mistake, a personal row seven years ago which was publicly exposed that I’ve worked endlessly for seven years to put right.
“The offence is long since spent, however my regret continues.”
