Big Brother’s Zak claims his former housemates are open to contestant Kerry as he insists she is “playing a game” on the show.
Model Zak, 28, became the second person to be kicked out of the house on Friday. She criticized NHS manager Kerry’s behavior, claiming she didn’t know how to take responsibility for her own actions and blamed her mistakes on others.
Kerry, 40, and the rest of the housemates were shocked last week when they heard the eviction crowd shouting live for her to be thrown out of the ITV show next.
And Zak has now told Web he sees through Kerry’s apparent shenanigans.
When he heard the boos for Kerry before his eviction, Zak said: “To be fair I wasn’t that surprised because I feel like a lot of people understand what kind of person she is.”
See the truth? Big Brother’s Zak, 28, claims his former housemates are getting closer to contestant Kerry as he insists she is “playing a game” on the show.
Controversy: Model Zak was the second person to be kicked out of the house on Friday and he has since criticized NHS manager Kerry’s behavior
“Don’t get me wrong, she’s a really nice woman, we’ve had some really nice conversations and deep down I know there’s a decent woman down there.”
“But I feel like it’s a game show, she’s playing a game, and I feel like when she’s done something wrong, she just doesn’t know how to own up to her own mistakes and tries to blame to blame on other people.”
“I feel like this isn’t a good game.”
Meanwhile, Zak defended himself after being embroiled in a misogynistic row over comments he made towards his housemates Trish and Olivia.
He was branded “sexist” during the row, but he insists he only upset both Trish and Olivia because he was bored.
The war of words arose when Olivia pointed out how much Zak was eating after he complained about how much food some of the other housemates were consuming after their shopping budget failed and limited funds were available to purchase new items.
Zak tried to defend the amount he ate, simply putting it down to him being a “boy.”
When Dylan laughed at Zak’s comment, Trish was furious, prompting Zak to joke, “My husband isn’t going to stand there and undress two women.”

Olivia warned, “Behave.”
And Trish hit back: “That was very inappropriate. “That was so sexist, that was sexism thriving within you.”
But Zak insists he meant nothing bad with his comments, telling Web: “A lot of things I say there, a lot of small and insignificant things, can be taken out of context.”
“To be clear: I love women, I was raised by women, I respect women more than anything, but I just like to laugh a little when I’m bored and there’s not much to do.”
“I start to upset people and I knew they were biting so I kept throwing them a little bit of kibble just to tease them more and more and more.”
“But deep down you can talk to Trish when she comes out.” She’ll say, “Me and Zak were like brothers.”
“It was just a little joke and just taken out of context. ‘That’s all, I just laughed.’
Elsewhere, Zak tried to dispel any rumors of a romance between him and his housemate Noky once and for all by insisting he only has eyes for his girlfriend.
He said: “There have been plenty of times where me and Noky have laughed a bit and flirted a bit, but I’m like that with everyone, I’m just a friendly guy.”
“Believe it or not, me and Trish laughed a lot more, they just didn’t show it.”
“I just feel like she’s Miss Pageant, I’m the model, so it kind of created a scenario that these two should be together.

Defending himself: Zak insists he meant no harm, telling Web: “A lot of things I say, a lot of small and insignificant things, can be taken out of context.”
“A lot of people are interested in it.” It’s everywhere on TikTok. If you type in Zak and Noky, it’s everywhere.
“But I just want to clarify that I have a girlfriend, I love my girlfriend and Noky was there just like my little sister but as soon as I mention sister or talk about my girlfriend they just let it out.” You have that side of the Not seen things.
“Just to be clear, I’m taken. Sorry, girls!’
Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
No romance: Zak also tried to dispel any rumors of a romance between him and his roommate Noky (pictured) once and for all by insisting he only has eyes for his girlfriend

JORDAN

PROFESSION: Lawyer
FROM: Scunthorpe
What are you most likely to be nominated for? “I’m argumentative and act like I don’t want to be there, even when I do in my heart.” Maybe they nominate me because I’m uninterested or because I don’t give everyone equal attention. You may feel left out, but there’s nothing I can do about it.’

Why did you apply to be a Big Brother Housemate? “I love challenges. I’ve had so many great moments in my life, like winning Miss Universe as Miss Great Britain. I like doing something different and think this is the next challenge I want to tackle. I want to show people what beauty girls are really like and refute many stereotypes around them. I also show what it’s like to be a woman who has worked in male-dominated fields. “I want to show that women are capable of doing anything they want.”

CHANELLE
AGE: 29
PROFESSION: Dental therapist
FROM: Llanelli
What are you most likely to be nominated for? “Probably just because I’m annoying.” There’s this saying in Wales: “I’ll do it in a minute.” For example, if I were preparing food and left a dish next to it, I would have good intentions to wash it up but would say, “I’ll do that in a minute,” and it might be three hours later before I do it. So probably for stupid things like that.’

PROFESSION: Food writer
FROM: Cotswolds
HOW WOULD YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? “I think you would say that I am particularly outgoing and very talkative. I mean, I’ll be honest, my parents would definitely say I’m a bit of a snob, but I take that as a compliment. I think that means you have high standards and good taste. They would say I’m quite a strange child.’
Kerry
AGE: 40
OCCUPATION: NHS manager
FROM: Essex
Why did you apply to be a housemate on Big Brother? “I love the program. For me it is the ultimate reality TV show of all time. I suffer from multiple sclerosis and that’s why I’ve never applied because I always saw these huge stairs crashing into the house. It just felt a bit out of reach because I was in a wheelchair for the first three years of my illness. When I saw it come back and was looking for real people from all walks of life, I thought: This is my year.”
