They might not have been marrying eachother but they were sleeping close together,same room and living together for 3 months plus they were all getting drunk and intimate with eachother.

If you think it's fine to keep that secret??...then where do we draw the line. Will BB producers next have a contestant who pretends they are trans just for views ??.

Keeping her identity a secret , just reminds me of that awful reality show 'There's something about Miriam ' which was exploitive and unfair & immoral to everyone involved.

I never watched that series tbh haha so can't comment on the specifics of how the issue was treated.

As a principle though I really don't see why someone should feel obliged to tell the others if they're trans. Lots of housemates will have pasts that they didn't reveal to their fellow housemates. At the time she went into the house she was a woman so what does it matter if she used to be a man?
