Big Brother’s Paul was branded “Big Brother” by viewers after he made his housemate Noky cry during Tuesday’s episode.
Security guard Paul, 23, was irritated during the shopping task when banker Noky, 26, became animated as she tried to encourage her team during the challenge.
He snapped at Noky and called her “wrong” before talking about her behind her back to his roommates.
Beauty queen Noky was seen crying in the diary room as she complained to Big Brother about how Paul had treated her in recent days, saying she was tired of being affected by his “tiredness”.
When viewers saw Noky sobbing, they jumped to her defense, with many taking to social media to voice their opinion on the issue.

One person wrote: “Paul is a nasty bully, he needs to leave Noky alone.”
While someone else wrote: “Atp Paul is bullying Noky because of what she did to him.”
“Paul’s microaggressions towards Noky are disgusting. “Let’s call it what it is and don’t beat around the bush,” another viewer wrote.
While someone else asked: “What’s wrong with Paul?” His attitude towards Noky seems different now. Then he spreads it to everyone else.’
Another viewer posted: “Paul saying Noky’s ‘okay team, let’s go’ stuff is wrong is so ridiculous, like…no she just wanted to get into the role and commit to the task.”
And someone else wrote: “Paul needs to leave Noky alone, he beats her up for no reason, she was just having a bit of fun.”
“So now Noky is a fake because she fulfilled her role in the task properly?” “I can’t get along with Paul anymore,” another viewer commented.
While someone else remarked: ‘Why does Paul keep accusing Noky? What is his real problem with her??’
Opinion: When viewers saw Noky sobbing, they jumped to her defense, with many taking to social media to voice their opinion on the matter
Another show fan wrote: “I really don’t want the girls to cry over Paul. ‘He doesn’t deserve your tears Noky.’
And someone else shared: “Noky being so upset about the Paul thing actually breaks me. ‘I hate him.’
“Paul really secures his eviction by making Noky cry,” another wrote.
The house had been turned into an ant kingdom and divided into two colonies, with the housemates forced to dress up as the creatures.
The groups competed in three challenges and the colony that won the most challenges had control of the purchasing budget.
Tensions ran high as some of the housemates discussed how seriously they should follow the rules of the task on Monday’s episode.
Paul exclaimed, “I live in a real world, I don’t live in a bloody ant world.” “We’ll all end up eating the same food and this fridge when this job is done and we’re not dressed up.”
Noky replied: “None of us know what Big Brother can actually choose as a legitimate rule, so it’s best to just do everything according to the instructions and then we’ll see what counts and what doesn’t, and that includes, to guard the ‘eggs.’
Dispute: It comes after tensions on Big Brother came to a head on Monday when housemates reached their limits during the shopping task (Paul pictured)
Paul joked: “I’m just not happy that we’re all so serious, we’re dressed as ants.”
Olivia added, “Yeah, but Paul, no offense dude, you were in a bad mood this morning.”
Paul became increasingly angry and said, “If you want to start, then start.”
“I’m not starting, I’m just saying that you were in a bad mood when you refused to put your gloves on,” Olivia replied.
Paul raged: “Damn, I’m serious again, everyone is serious, we’re dressed as ants and you’re all arguing about stupid little things.”
Noky joked, “No, but you’re serious too.”
Paul: “I’m serious now because you’re fucking treating me like I’m an idiot.” Do you think I’m an ad***head? Is there a need for this? Seriously.

Later, referring to his disagreement with Noky and Olivia, Paul told Tom and Jenkin: “I’ll be honest, I’m usually a pretty good judge of character and I usually know what people are like when I first meet them, I know that I.” .
“And that’s the thing, you know, when Olivia came in and then she was sitting on the floor with Noky pissing all over me, and I was like, I just looked at her and thought, are you really shit?”, like seriously?
“Is this really the case, it makes me question…whether they are real or not…it makes me question them as a person…”
Big Brother continues on Wednesday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

JORDAN
AGE: 25
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.’

OUT: Derby
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.”

What are you most likely to be nominated for? “Being the tallest, eating all the food, and being the loudest roommate.”
OLIVIA

HALLIE
AGE: 18
OCCUPATION: Youth worker
From London
What are you most likely to be nominated for? “Be lazy and have an opinion.” I’m quite opinionated, I like to express my opinion and not many people like that. I’m very real.’
YINRUN
AGE: 25
OCCUPATION: Customer service representative
FROM: Harrogate
What part of the experience are you most looking forward to? “What I enjoy most is being surrounded by so many people from different walks of life. I don’t think I’ll ever live in a house with so many different people again. “I’m from China and I think it will help me delve deeper into British culture.”
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.’
MATTY
AGE: 24
PROFESSION: Doctor
FROM: Isle of Man

HENRY
AGE: 25
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.”
