Big Brother 2025 viewers have been left divided after two housemates confessed their love
The fate of a Big Brother star has been “sealed” as ITV2 viewers weigh in on a heartwarming moment, dubbing it a “game plan”.
As we inch closer to the 2025 final, tensions are mounting in the legendary house. Just last week, Caroline and Nancy were sent home during Friday’s double eviction, hot on the heels of Sam’s unexpected back door elimination.
The 2025 series is due to wrap up this week, with only one contestant set to be crowned the winner. However, with just days remaining, fans are convinced they’ve spotted a “game plan” as two stars declare their love.

Tonight’s episode (November 9) will catch up with the housemates post-Friday’s double eviction. In a teaser clip, Elsa and Marcus seem to have made it official with an “I love you”.
In conversation with Jenny, Teja, and Emily, Elsa declares: “I love love”, prompting Emily to ask: “Wait, are you in love?”, reports OK!.
Elsa confirms with a nod, leading Emily to excitedly question: “Are you? Are you really? Oh, I’m so happy for you. Have you told him or no?”.
Acknowledging that they’ve both expressed their love, Emily gushes: “Aw, Elsa, I’m so happy for you.”
A preview shared on social media shows Marcus planting a kiss on Elsa as he says, “Love you”.

However, fan reactions have been mixed, with some criticising the “showmance” as a “game plan.”
One viewer branded it “cringe,” while another commented: “Marcus’s last-ditch attempt to make the final.”
Another commented: “On the run up to the final week, he drops the L bomb.”
A fourth remarked: “Total game playing once neither of them wins, they will separate once the 2 weeks of photoshoots end and go into the world of unknown housemates.”
Another declared, “Sure, Marcus is a great guy, but he’s done absolutely nothing to get in the final. Only screentime he gets is because of Elsa.”

After detecting the “game plan”, numerous viewers suggested Marcus won’t make it to the final, instead facing eviction in an upcoming elimination as they share their predictions on the winner, with housemate Richard apparently leading the pack.
Nevertheless, other supporters backed the pair, considering their relationship authentic.
One viewer penned: “Marcus and Elsa are actually quite SWEET can’t believe I’m saying this.”
Another declared, “Everyone was saying this was all a showmance too, they’re genuinely in love, and it’s cute to see.”
Former Big Brother champion from 2023, Jordan Sangha, also weighed in as he responded: “That house is such a melting pot whenever it concerns feelings of ‘love’. I think comfortable would be better than the dreaded ‘L-word’. Elsa is really endearing, and I hope this is genuine.”
Eliminated housemate Cameron B also remarked: “Loves a strong word, Marcus, but if it’s true, then all the best.”
Big Brother airs Sunday to Friday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
