Who Won HOH on ‘Big Brother’ 25? [2023 UPDATE]

Trusting his alliance members and Cirie (his mother), Jared expects a smooth HOH reign. However, his stubborn attitude could spell trouble for his mother and allies in maintaining their stronghold.

BB 25’s Secret Alliances Reborn

Cameron Hardin, the immediate past Head of Household, and his key ally Red Utley found themselves in hot water as Jared’s first choices for eviction. America Lopez, another potential eviction nominee, belongs to the central alliance, which might protect her from the eviction round.

As Jared seems focused on keeping his hands clean, an easy way out would be nominating Cameron, the outgoing Head of Household.

Jared might need to reconsider his game plan though. Keeping Jag and Blue Kim in his crosshair appears wiser. These BB25 house mates are scheming a comeback of The Handful alliance, potentially roping Matt Klotz and America into their fold, and possibly even Cory Wurtenberger.

The Handful VS Cirie and Allies

Cirie’s influence in the game and her intricate alliances have been brought into the limelight. Blue Kim holds the trump card here, being aware of Jared’s unreliable nature. Although Jared meant to share his co-game strategy with his mom only with Izzy Gleicher, Blue now knows and is cautious.

This information could potentially disrupt Cirie’s strategy of utilizing Jared to mislead opponents about their connection.

Tide Turning in Big Brother House

Jag and Blue hold the power to unseat the majority alliance, with Jared’s trustworthiness in question. Time is of essence, and unless one of them clinches the Head of Household title or a veto soon, their plans may go haywire. BB house is gearing up for a tumultuous week, that could alter the trajectory of the game forever.
