‘Big Brother’ Season 28 Week 6 Spoilers: Here’s who won HOH after Chuk's recent eviction
The latest ‘Big Brother’ Season 28 episode revealed yet another elimination as Chuk left the house. He was sent home after a 9-1 vote against fellow nominated contestant Barrett. The two were on the chopping block along with Haley, who saved herself after winning the BB Blockbuster. Since the elimination, viewers have been eagerly waiting to know who the next Head of Household (HOH) will be. Though the same will not be officially announced until the next episode, the live feeds revealed the latest development from inside the BB House.
After Chuk’s eviction, the remaining housemates with a chance to be HOH were: Angela Murray, Barrett Pfeiffer, Dee Valladares, Drew Campbell, Haley Thogmartin, Kamu Kirk, Mallory Aurichio, Melody Morris, Taylor Brown, Rick Devens, and Yash Patel. Because LaTrice "Lala" Verrett was the last HOH, she was not able to participate in the HOH competition. After the elimination, live feeds resumed at around 10:30 p.m. PT, and soon after, fans witnessed Yash Patel wearing the HOH key, meaning he won the competition and became the new HOH for Week 6.
