Big Brother UK’s runner-up Twinks has weighed in on Rochelle’s controversial victory<\/a>, addressing her housemate being booed after hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best announced her win.<\/p>\n

Last week, Rochelle was crowned winner of the latest season of Big Brother UK in a close win against Twinks, with just 1.03% separating them. Rochelle was booed by the audience once she left the Big Brother house a winner, while Twinks was celebrated by the public.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Fleur East and James Barr on Hits Radio<\/a>, Twinks admitted feeling bad for Rochelle.<\/p>\n

“Of course [I felt bad]. I think you have to see, if you watch the show, I am overly empathetic. So even when people weren’t being nice to me, if I could see they were having a bad day in that house, I’d look after them,” she said. <\/p>\n

“Call that whatever you wanna call it. But for me it’s just basic empathy and love, I don’t like seeing people having a bad time. I don’t like watching people come out to boos.”<\/p>\n

She added: “Is it nice hearing your name being chanted? Yeah, go on then!”<\/p>\n

Twinks also got candid about how she didn’t think she would make it to the final after being at risk of eviction during most of her Big Brother stint.<\/p>\n

“I’m just happy to be here. I was up for eviction every week I was there other than the one week I was immune because I’d just entered the house,” she said. <\/p>\n

“So the idea that I was even gonna come second \u2013 I had no idea what was happening outside. It’s wild and it’s so beautiful and I’m so giddy with gratitude for all the beautiful comments and wonderful people.”

Meanwhile, Rochelle also reflected on winning the show during a recent appearance on Good Morning Britain, saying she “deserved every penny”<\/a> of the \u00a3100,000 cash prize.<\/p>\n

“I deserve every penny for what I went through. I’ve had mental torture for eight weeks,” she told hosts Susanna Reid, Ed Balls and Richard Arnold earlier this week.<\/p>\n
