‘I think the nail in my coffin was that I thought I was charismatic and I didn’t have as much support as I thought I did.’
Many viewers were disappointed to see her leave so early in the competition, particularly as the only POC [person of colour] on the show.
‘How come my faves always go first…. and I’m not surprised they voted the only POC woman on the block out of the house. Disappointed beyond BELIEF,’ one wrote on Twitter.
Another added: ‘Looks like BBAU 2021 is just as quick to see the POC leave as 2020. I’m so disappointed #BBAU.’
