LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Big Brother' Season 26 saw Head of House Quinn Martin nominate Tucker Lauriers, Cedric Hodges, and Makensy Manbeck for eviction at the beginning of Week 4. Tucker saved himself by winning the Veto in the 'Binary Bridge' challenge. However, Quinn nominated Rubina Bernabe as Tucker's replacement nominee, which left the Veto winner stunned

Tucker and Rubina, who had been involved in a showmance, were well-known to Quinn. HOH Quinn planned to target Tucker in the Veto challenge and intended to nominate Rubina as his replacement. The CBS show star initially thought Tucker would lose the Veto challenge and evict himself to save Rubina. However, Quinn's plans backfired when Tucker saved himself, resulting in Rubina ending up on the eviction block. Tucker's showmance ultimately put Rubina in jeopardy, and now she fears eviction. Despite his feelings for Rubina, Tucker admitted that his primary focus on the CBS show was on the game, not on her.

Rubina Bernabe ditches Tucker Lauriers's plan to evict Quinn Martin

'Big Brother' Season 26 star Tucker Lauriers viewed Quinn Martin as a major threat and wanted him out of the house. He teamed up with other houseguests, including Rubina Bernabe, to vote off Quinn. However, his plan backfired when no one else supported it. During the voting ceremony, only Tucker voted to evict Quinn, while the rest of the houseguests voted out Kenney Kelley instead.

However, Tucker was left heartbroken when his showmance also abandoned his plan, leading him to confront Rubina. She explained that the houseguests had collectively decided not to vote for Quinn, but Tucker felt blindsided by the decision.
