They have now decided to remove her from the house after deeming the posts were "unacceptable".
A post on the show's official Twitter account reads: "As a result of our investigation into offensive and unacceptable posts on social media, Ellis Hillon has been removed from the Big Brother House."
The decision has been welcomed by fans who commented on the announcement: "Good! What she said was disgusting! I don't care if she was younger then, those words she used are awful and her sister has backed up her views too. 😤😤 #BBUK."
And: "Good! I do hope that every other housemate's SM has been checked??"
Ellis was caught up in a racist tweet storm after a vile message she posted about 9/11 appeared online.

The tweet has been circulating online after Ellis wiped her Twitter account clean before going into the house on Friday night.
A number of tweets which she had previously deleted were grabbed by followers who then shared them.
One of the messages included a sick post about the 2001 terrorist attacks in the US.
The messages includes several expletives as well as a vile racial slur.

Ellis joined the house on Friday night as the last series of the reality TV show kicked off.
It's the 19th series of the show and Channel 5 bosses confirmed it will be the last one they produce.
It's believed another channel will snap up the rights to make the show just like 5 bosses did after BB was dropped by Channel 4.
