SPOILER ALERT: This post contains details on Big Brother Season 26, Episode 18, which aired on Thursday, August 22.
Tucker Des Lauriers’ chaotic reign as Head of Household (HOH) on Big Brother ended with the housemates propping up his game.
Season 26 of the reality series competition has been anything but predictable, and in Week 5, the housemates played it safe.
As HOH, Des Lauriers put Brooklyn Rivera, Cam Sullivan-Brown, and Quinn Martin up for eviction.
Keeping all the power, Des Lauriers won the Power of Veto and used it to take Martin off the block. In Martin’s place, Des Lauriers put Chelsie Baham up for eviction as he believes she is one of the leaders of an alliance against him.
Watch on Deadline
Des Lauriers’ target is Rivera and planned to keep Sullivan-Brown but housemates like Rubina Bernabe pointed out that it could be beneficial to keep the latter.
The houseguests up for eviction in Week 5 were Rivera, Sullivan-Brown, and Baham.
