This season has already teased surprises that will keep the housemates on their toes as unexpected twists take over the game.

The first twist of the season includes a housemate who’s not really a housemate but a mole set to cause chaos in the house. Entering the house for a week is Bov Boys member Tays (Michael Taylor).
