Here’s everything you need to know about the Power of Veto (POV) competition in Week 7 of Big Brother Season 26.
Who won the Power of Veto Competition in Week 7 of Big Brother Season 26?
Leah Peters won the Power of Veto competition in Week 7 of Big Brother Season 26.
As per Screen Rant, Peters exercised her Power of Veto to save Angela Murray from eviction. Murray had been previously nominated for eviction by Week 7 Head of Household Quinn Martin, along with Rubina Barnabe and Kimo Apaka.
Quinn Martin sought Angela’s eviction, fearing her potential to outlast him in the game. He candidly admitted in a private HOH room chat that Angela’s strategic prowess posed a significant threat. While his motivations for targeting Rubina and Kimo were more calculated, considering their proximity to the previously evicted Tucker, his primary goal remained to eliminate any perceived competition.
Martin assured Angela there were no hard feelings between them, dismissing her apology for her comments during the game. He clarified that he had only mentioned her words in a playful attempt at humor.
Angela began sharing stories with Leah in the kitchen and found herself growing closer to her. Leah revealed that they felt excluded from certain activities due to their similar gaming preferences. Meanwhile, Joseph confessed his crush on Leah in a diary room session. However, Leah did not reciprocate his feelings, confirming that she had “friend-zoned” him, just as she had done with Quinn.
Angela quickly sought to understand Quinn’s intentions and persuade Joseph of her willingness to collaborate with the other HouseGuests. However, Joseph dismissed her, mocking her efforts as a mere ploy to disrupt others’ games. This provocation only fueled Angela’s determination to confront Leah and devise a plan to eliminate her.
Leah told Quinn that she wanted Angela to reach the jury because it would help her win the game. Quinn agreed with Leah but told her not to risk her own game for Angela. However, Quinn made a mistake by admitting that he planned to evict Joseph.
After Leah used her Power of Veto to remove Angela from the eviction list, Quinn was forced to protect the five houseguests who had opposed Tucker the previous week. This left T’Kor vulnerable, as she had not had the opportunity to vote. Consequently, Quinn nominated Joseph for eviction. In the Diary Room, Joseph vowed to retaliate against Quinn if he ever became Head of Household.
