Big Brother fans are convinced one star's fate has been "sealed" after what they called "atrocious" behaviour in the iconic house. The backlash came after two new housemates, Twinks and Catrin, were introduced just minutes after Johanne's eviction.
Johanne evicted after over one million votes
Last week, housemates Rochelle and Johanne went head-to-head in the third public vote of the series. After weeks of clashes and heated arguments, Johanne was announced as the third housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother house after more than one million votes were cast.
In a huge twist, two new housemates, Twinks and Catrin, stunned their fellow housemates when they arrived just minutes after Johanne's exit. Tonight's episode (October 4) followed on from Friday's live eviction as the newcomers were welcomed into the house, but in true Big Brother fashion, there was more drama and chaos for viewers to lock into.
Housemates' hostility sparks viewer backlash
As the new faces were introduced, all appeared to go well until Rochelle and Philip spoke privately, admitting they did not trust Twinks and Catrin. Philip could be heard saying: "I don't trust her, the one with the multicoloured dress, she's about 40 you can tell, she's not young." He later added: "I think she's going to be dangerous you know", after references they know about the outside world. Rochelle also came up with nicknames which did not go down well with viewers.
Rhianna could also be heard telling Yasmin she was "jealous of Omar" but fans were quick to slam the housemates for being unwelcoming. On X, one person said: "This is giving replacements on bad girls club what’s with the hostility", as another echoed: "They’ve only been in there five minutes, how you gonna be jealous and bitter all ready."
Fans predict downfall for Rochelle and Philip
A third added: "Phillip is about to have the one of the biggest downfalls in a very long time on this show. Every episode he’s becoming more and more nasty and miserable." A fourth fumed: "Nahhhhh these housemates behaviour is atrocious. Absolutely atrocious. Disgusting people", as a fifth commented: "I’d walk right back out the door this is the least welcoming crowd omfg #bbuk."
Some called for Rochelle to be nominated this week and face the public vote once more. One person said: "We’ve all agreed Rochelle to go next right." Another penned: "Philip and Rochelle not being very welcoming If they keep this up then they might find themselves nominated next!" A third predicted: "Rochelle and Phillip are gonna plummet in the public's eye. They're nasty."
However, for some, the two remain a firm favourite as one person wrote: "Rochelle and Phillip might be b***** but I love them omg." Another penned: "Love Rochelle, no filter at all!" Big Brother continues tomorrow at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
