Big Brother season 26 drama explained: Why the house has turned against Angela

As a seasoned fan of Big Brother, I must say that last night’s episode was a rollercoaster ride filled with drama and unexpected twists. Angela Murray seems to be the catalyst for most of it, but this time, she can’t seem to manipulate her way out of trouble as easily as she did with Matt Hardeman.


Last night’s episode of Big Brother season 26 was an emotional rollercoaster.

It’s no secret that Angela Murray is right in the thick of things, as she either initiates or becomes the focus of drama. This time, though, the situation isn’t allowing her to escape the consequences of her actions like she did with Matt Hardeman. Instead, the environment is making sure to keep Angela in check.

Here’s why the Big Brother season 26 house have officially turned their backs on Angela.

Angela Murray racism allegations explained

Last night on Big Brother season 26, it was noticeable that various alliances were cropping up. Some were more substantial, while others seemed to be temporary strategies for the game. However, a particular quartet – Chelsie Baham, Cedric Hodges, Cam Sullivan-Brown, and T’Kor Clottey – appeared to share an understanding that they should form an alliance, but they haven’t yet formalized anything long-term.

As Angela was in the kitchen, she noticed Chelsie, Cedric, Cam, and T’Kor lounging by the hammock outdoors. Angela immediately summoned Quinn Martin to verify the gathering, and mentioned her suspicion that this quartet was collaborating.

As an ally to all parties involved, I, Quinn, decided it was crucial to share with T’Kor my suspicions about Angela’s belief that the four Black housemates might be collaborating secretly. After T’Kor passed on this info to Cedric, he in turn informed Chelsie, the current Head of Household.

Chelsie felt uneasy about the possibility of Angela sabotaging the games of four fellow houseguests, considering her altercation with Matt had resulted in his departure. As a result, Chelsie felt compelled to speak directly with Angela.

In their conversation within the Head of Household room, Chelsie expressed her concern that she appears to be a marked player due to Angela’s comments suggesting an alliance among the four Black housemates. Angela maintained that there was some misunderstanding, as she never intended to jeopardize the fellow houseguests’ game. However, Chelsie remains unconvinced because she believes Angela is getting closer to discovering the truth about Chelsie’s alliance, which goes by the name ‘The Pentagon,’ comprising herself, Cedric, Cam, Quinn, and Brooklyn Rivera.

Chelsie’s target for this week has shifted to Angela.

Throughout everything, Angela found herself feeling particularly let down by Quinn as she was certain he had misrepresented both her words and her intentions. In the end, she decided to confront Quinn in the restroom, querying him about his reason for discussing their matter with T’Kor. Upon hearing her name mentioned, T’Kor entered the bathroom, choosing to partake in the discussion as well.

Tired of the back-and-forth, T’Kor asked Angela to clear the air once and for all.

1. Angela clarified that she was simply suggesting a team with Chelsie, Cedric, Cam, and herself, not targeting anyone else. However, Quinn misunderstood due to Angela’s reputation for creating conflicts in the house. T’Kor then pointed out that grouping only Black houseguests seemed unfair because it has become customary since The Cookout to assume that all Black houseguests are collaborating together.

Overwhelmed by what she perceived as T’Kor’s suggestive remarks, Angela broke down so deeply that T’Kor found it impossible to speak. This reaction led T’Kor to think of Angela as a person who often portrays herself as a victim.

See the full bathroom conversation between Angela, T’Kor, and Quinn below.

Angela angrily marches into the kitchen and unloads on Cedric, insisting she isn’t prejudiced. Cedric empathizes with her and trusts her sincerity, but it’s now clear to everyone that Angela struggles to control her feelings and speech, casting doubt on her reliability.

After feeling remorseful about the chaos she caused, Angela converses with T’Kor for a second time, expressing her regret for not heeding T’Kor’s advice. It turns out that Angela’s actions were based on a significant misunderstanding, and in the end, T’Kor grants Angela forgiveness.

Generally speaking, most fans of Big Brother season 26 and the Big Brother house itself find it unlikely that Angela Murray is a racist. However, due to recent events, it seems undeniable that Angela’s standing within the house has been significantly tarnished, and her time there is drawing to a close.

If Angela manages to stay in the house for another week, she’ll face a tough task rebuilding the trust she shattered with everyone there. The question is: can she pull it off? We’ll have to wait and see.
