Big Brother’s latest evicted housemate has given his reaction to one housemate he’s deemed a a bigger game player ahead of a new week in the house. 

Model Zak was the second Big Brother housemate to be given the boot on Friday (20th October), after he was up for eviction alongside food writer Henry. 

Zak was embroiled in some Big Brother house drama last week when Halle spelled out a secret message to Olivia that she believed Zak was a “game player.”

Speaking exclusively to virginradio.co.uk after he was sent home, the Manchester native revealed he believes there’s an even bigger “game player” in the house, and it’s not someone viewers would expect. 

“The person who surprised me the most was Channelle,” Zak admitted to us. 

“Watching it back, I always shared a story with Channelle during night time. We shared a lot of pillow talk. As soon as I walked away, it was all 'Zak's full of himself'. Watching it back. I was like, wow, all I wanted to do was be friends with you, which is a shame,” he added. 

When it comes to who he’d vote out, Zak would rather choose the Welsh dental therapist as she’s “playing a bit of a game” by “sweetening up” the other housemates. 

The BB23 star explained: “I feel like she's one of them quiet gossipers. I didn't realise that…as soon as I came up, her topic would always change. Me watching back…I feel like she’s one of those silent whisperers to try and get people on her back and I feel like she’s playing a bit of a game. 

“She’s one of those people to sweeten everyone up. She’s got Tom, she’s got Jenkin on her back. She’s safe to say things to them. I feel like you’re playing more of a game than I was and I feel like you need to get out of there because I feel like you’re really whispering things into people’s ears. I’m catching on to what she is.”

Despite being labelled as someone to distrust within the Big Brother walls, Zak has no regrets over his time on the social experiment, and wanted to show “the world what I had to offer.”

“I wanted to show everybody in the house that I was genuine,” Zak said. “Being nice in this world shouldn't make you feel like you’re being a game player. But coming out to the world and seeing all the tweets and reading all the threads and all the topics about myself, it’s been really positive. 

“I feel like everybody knows how genuine I was. I'm really happy with the outcome and the response I've had. I’m buzzing to see everyone in the outside world has my back. I’m really happy to hear that.”

Big Brother airs Sunday-Friday on ITV2 from 9pm.
