The 35-year-old TV star left the reality show amid a dramatic dispute with fellow actor Ryan Thomas, 34.
A CBB spokesperson confirmed the news in a statement and said: "Roxanne has decided to leave the BB House.
"The remaining housemates have been informed."
However no further information has been shared at this time.
Roxanne's decision to leave comes after she accused Ryan of "punching her" in the ribs during a "play fight."
As Roxanne demanded Ryan was thrown out of the house after the incident, 11,000 fans complained to Ofcom about Roxanne's reaction.
Fans took to Twitter to claim she was "making a mockery of abuse victims".
In scenes that aired on Celebrity Big Brother on Friday night, Ryan was seen apologising to Roxanne over the incident.
"I honestly want you to know I was showing my affection," Ryan said, explaining what he was doing when he playfully boxed the side of her arm earlier in the week.
"Maybe it came across the wrong way, I just want to apologise. I want to put it to bed. I don't want it to affect other people in here," he added – as Roxanne became emotional.
"I don't want this to be our ending," Roxanne agreed at the time – before thanking Ryan for his apology.
On Thursday night's show, Roxanneclaimed to have been left in pain when Ryan playfully pretended to fight with her.
The actress complained to Big Brother and requested Ryan be removed from the CBB house following the incident and she asked to sleep in a different room from her fellow contestants.
However, fans were quick to take Ryan's side in the incident – with many suggesting that Roxanne's story was being overblown.
Eagle-eyed viewers suggested that she appeared to be holding the right side of her body when she complained to Big Brother, despite previously touching the left side during the incident.
Noticing the discrepancy, one person tweeted: "Did anyone notice when she went in bedroom she held the wrong side when she said it hurt. #CBBUK #CBB."
Another added: "Roxanne held the wrong side of her body when she walked into the bedroom?? Lol #CBB."
It wasn't just the casual viewer that sided with Ryan, as many celebrities have come out to support the former Corrie star.
Former Celebrity Big Brother contestant Nicola McLean turned on Roxanne when she appeared on CBB: Bit on the Side soon after the footage of the punching incident aired.
Nicola told host Rylan Clark-Neal: "She's seen it as a storyline and that's what I'm disgusted by, disgusted.
"I'm absolutely furious because do you know what? In the light of MeToo and that, every woman is campaigning for domestic violence – and men – how dare she go and do that? How dare she?!
"When this guy has been nothing but brilliant for the whole show, and she's doing this for a storyline and I don't give a s*** what anyone says, I know Roxanne, I've worked with her before and I liked her before this but f*** off it's disgusting."
Meanwhile other stars and former colleagues of both Roxanne and Ryan have waded into the argument with their own opinions.
Kelvin Fletcher, who played Andy Sugden for 20 years and played Roxanne's on-screen husband on the show, tweeted: "She. is. evil."
While Ryan's brother Adam – who played Adam Barton in Emmerdale until earlier this year – tweeted that he was: "In tears watching this!!"
Richard Fleeshaman – who is close friends with Ryan and previously dated Roxanne – has spoken out and revealed he doesn't agree with his ex's behaviour.
The actor – who dated Roxanne from 2001 until 2007 – wrote on Twitter: "Here's the thing… you can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time."
