"MJ has evicted Rubina. Chelsie has secured her win. #BB26 #BigBrother #BigBrother26."

Another fan wrote,

"Also.. Rubina is still one of my favorites!! I’m really happy she made it this far #BB26 #BigBrother26."

A fan called out Makensy and shared,

"Rubina literally just told Mj she’s gonna lose next to Chelsie and Mj just doesn’t get it …… #BB26 #BBLF #BigBrother26."

A fan shared how Rubina should have been the one to advance to the show's finale and shared,

"MJ Needs to Think About Her Own Game Not Chelsie & Cam She Needs To take Rubina To Finale Night Not Cam Because He Chelsie Puppet #BB #bigbrother #BigBrother26 #BB26."

Big Brother 26: Rubina’s elimination explored

The reality show's week 12 episode aired on October 10, 2024, surprising some fans who supported housemate Rubina Bernabe.

Seeing Rubina evicted from Big Brother 26, fans were divided over her elimination. While some fans said their goodbyes, others shared how it was a strategic decision and that she was evicted from the reality show.

Fans have witnessed Rubina's quirky personality since she entered the popular reality show. Later, fans also witnessed her showmance with fellow housemate Tucker. Despite not winning a number of challenges and tasks in the show, Rubina managed to get herself up to the show's finale.

For the past few weeks, the female housemate was in an alliance with fellow housemate T'kor, later joined by Kimo. Their alliance did not last long as they soon witnessed T'kor's elimination, followed by Kimo, and now Rubina was also evicted during the 37th episode.

With the Power of Veto, Makensy chose to save herself and announced Rubina as the replacement nominee. As a result, Rubina was evicted from Big Brother 26. Seeing her name up for elimination, she didn't seem surprised.

Later on, after she left the show, Rubina shared with the show host that she felt the rest of the housemates had some "deal." She also mentioned how she envisioned "three women" finalists at the end of the competition.

Seeing Rubina leaving the show, Big Brother 26 fans had mixed reactions. Some of Rubina's fans didn't want to see her leave the show.

Some of the fans mentioned how it was inevitable since the rest of the two housemates, Makensy and Chelsie, already had separate powers, and Rubina did not have them.


Viewers can stream Big Brother 26 on CBS and on Paramount+ from next day onwards.
