Nikki was equally loved as she was hated, and she was evicted because her fans couldn't save her. Nikki was booed at the final because people didn't agree with BB bringing an ex-Hm back, and they didn't believe her romance with Pete. Also, many Nikki fans had moved on and supported different housemates. Her popularity wasn't what it was when she was previously in the house. Also, when Nikki was away Aisleyne had become increasingly popular. She was the new Nikki to a certain extent. Had Aisleyne been up for eviction against Imogen and/or Richard the week before the final, she would have gone. But, in the final her fans could vote for her to win, and her haters had no way to evict her - other than to try and stop her winning by voting for their favorites.
