‘It’s a showmance’ say Big Brother fans as Rosie and Nathan appear to take their romance to the next level
BIG Brother fans are convinced Rosie and Nathan’s romance is fake after they appeared to take their romance to the next level.
ITV2 viewers insisted their courtship is a ‘showmance’ following the discovery of a used condom in their shared bedroom with the other housemates.
In the opening scene from tonight’s installment, Izaaz asked: “Why is there a condom on the floor?” before the camera cut to a smirking Rosie and Nathan.
The dental assistant, who was renamed Baked Potato following a dare in the first week, said: “I’m coming over here, I don’t give a s**t anymore,” as she made her way to Nathan’s bed.
But fans weren’t buying it and rushed to X, formerly Twitter with their confusion.
One asked: “WHAT TF HAPPENED LAST NIGHT PLEASE WHY IS THERE CONDOMS?”
Someone else said: “This Nathan/Baked Potato romance just feels slightly fake,” with another agreeing: “I don’t care for this baked potato and Nathan romance, I’m sorry.”
A fourth fumed: “Rosie fake AF. Knows a showmance increases your odds of staying in till the end.”
Someone else said: “Sorry but I’m not buying this… it’s giving concocted showmance…”
Shortly afterwards, Rosie was asked by Big Brother whether she had fallen for the pork salesman.
Despite their bedroom PDA, she replied: “He’s fine. If I were to meet him on the outside world, I would not like him.”
She went on to say: “He’s a tall lanky bastard but maybe I am as well.”
Fans were surprised when the pair revealed saucy feelings for one another during Thursday night’s show.
Nathan confessed he felt attracted to Rosie just minutes before she walked into the Big Brother house.
But Lily also leapt in with a surprise kiss.
The romance blossomed between Nathan and Rosie after a fire alarm evacuation where cameras recorded a secret chat.
The pair discussed dating each other when they get out, with Nathan asking Rosie if she’d like to visit a winery together when they emerge from the house.
But viewers have been speculating that it is all little too pre-planned and organised – and there must be more than meets the eye.
Big Brother is presented by Will Best and AJ Odudu and is on its second series on ITV and ITVX.
