The Big Brother house bids farewell to two housemates.
King Wanda and The don

Tonight’s live show was packed with both evictions and tension. Smash Afrika kept the housemates on their toes, announcing that Que and Thandeka were safe from eviction. The pressure was real as the contestants confronted the harsh realities of the game. Meanwhile, Mmeli vowed to make his relationship work outside the house. Smash Afrika asked Didi if it was true that she was Liema and Trixie’s shadow, to which she firmly denied. He then turned to Bravo B, jokingly asking if they should start preparing for the wedding, while Bravo B declared Trixie “the one”.

Who was evicted?
Immediately after the second crossing, the first eviction was announced and it was King Wanda who had to leave the house, making him the first housemate of the night to be sent home. He said his goodbyes after 8 weeks of fighting for his spot in the house where housemates battle for that big prize.

The Don was the second housemate to be evicted. As Smash Afrika announced his departure, Ashay expressed shock.

What did they say to Smash Afrika?
King Wanda told Smash Afrika that his eviction was not something he had dreamed about, but it had crossed his mind. He said he had a feeling his journey might be coming to an end.

“Today I stand proudly as a Zulu man. I walked into the house praying to reach the top 10, and I achieved that. I’m happy and fulfilled. I can’t wait to see my daughter, I’m truly happy, bro. It wasn’t a dream, just a thought.”

Meanwhile, The Don described his time in the house as an incredible journey. He said he enjoyed the experience but admitted that life inside the house can be emotionally draining and requires resilience.

“The journey was great and I really enjoyed it. That house is draining, but you have to keep pushing. The reason I’m emotional is because I always told my gents that her [Neliswa's] departure wasn’t fair. I really missed her, and seeing her again … yho."

Who left the house before them?
Last week brought the exit of Ilano.

How many housemates remain?
With just 8 housemates left, the race for the R2-million prize is heating up.

How did Mzansi vote?
This week’s votes sent tensions soaring as fans backed their favourites. The Don found himself at the bottom, with King Wanda close behind and Bravo B not far off, proving once again that anything can happen in the Big Brother house.
