BIG Brother star Omar El Mayer faces punishment for a rule break – after a heartwarming gesture to a co-star backfired.
The 21-year-old, from London, has formed a close bond with fellow housemate Rhianna Collins, also 21.
In Monday’s episode, it was revealed that Rhianna is soon set to celebrate her birthday.
Omar decided to mark the occasion by writing a birthday message to Rhianna.
Although fellow housemate Pauline Adeyemo, 31, soon pointed out that Omar’s actions may constitute a rule break.
Housemates are prohibited from writing notes to avoid strategic communication – or influence voting.
One viewer wrote on X: “Pauline stirring it there….go and read the card!”
Another added: “Discussing nominations AND writing notes?!? They better get punished properly.”
On tonight’s Big Brother: The Group Chat, they exclusively revealed that Rochelle and Omar did in fact break house rules and would face punishment.
Big Brother told the group: “As you have broken two fundamental rules of Big Brother, until further notice you will go to jail.”
The first rule break was when Rochelle and Omar chatted about nominations and how they thought newcomer Twinks would vote for them.
The second rule break related to Omar writing the birthday card to Rhianna.
It comes after the house took on a huge new twist in being rocked by a Love Island-esque Movie Night.
Newcomers Catrin and Twinks watched clips in the house’s ‘special library’ which exposed their fellow contestants with some shocking revelations.
The format is similar to Love Island’s iconic Movie Night which causes all sorts of drama when damning clips of various contestants are shown.
The newbie pair arrived on Friday night after Johanne was booted out in the epic eviction showdown between Johanne and Rochelle.
