Before leaving, she hugged Jonsson and said: "Oh, I'm so glad; I told you I was going to go - I'm made up."
Malone said she was "incredibly relieved" that she was out and admitted she was fond of using strong language - something she gained a reputation for in the house.
She said she had toned down her personality for the show but added: "I use expletives not because I have a lack of vocabulary but because I am very passionate. I actually like them."
She said her experience had taught her how spoilt celebrities are and to be a more tolerant person.
She had been nominated by Heaton, former A1 singer Ben Adams, and Austin Powers star Verne Troyer.
Heaton said she felt "intimidated" by the outspoken actress and accused her of creating a bad atmosphere in the house, while Troyer said she was "full of herself".
