Big Brother viewers are furious that controversial housemate Caroline “keeps getting away” with her behaviour towards fellow contestant Richard.
Sunday’s episode (November 2) revealed the aftermath of Friday’s double eviction, showing Caroline stunned that Richard survived the public vote.
Speaking to Big Brother, she said: “I’m just shocked that people would want someone in here like Richard. Bless his little soul. I don’t dislike the man, but he doesn’t give a thing to the House. He doesn’t join in anything.”
The 56-year-old Essex native went on to explain she had been left devastated by Farida’s departure.
“And then you’ve got Farida that was up for everything. And was fun and now she’s gone. Every time I get a friend that’s fun, everyone takes them away,” reports OK!.

“And I actually felt like I wanted to have a cry… She made a real impact. She made it fun again.”
Becoming emotional, Caroline added: “God, I’m crying. What’s the matter with me? I haven’t cried for weeks.”
Later in the programme, theOG housemate voiced her frustrations with late arrival Richard, branding him the “antichrist”.
ITV audiences were left dismayed by Caroline’s harsh label, which they believe appears aimed at Richard because of his Christian faith.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one viewer fumed: “So Caroline is STILL continuing to call Richard, a practicing Christian, the ‘Antichrist’. It’s disgusting.”

One fan expressed that she shouldn’t be allowed to “keep getting away” with her treatment of Richard, a sentiment echoed by others.
One wrote: “Caroline calling Richard the antichrist is so wild.” Viewers have also united in their belief that Caroline should be held accountable for this nickname, with some labelling it as “bullying”.
Another individual chimed in, saying: “Caroline thinks Richard is boring but this unjustified witch hunt she’s setting on Richard is the most boring thing ever I’M TIRED OF THE BULLYING BORED OF THE ONE SIDED BEEF.”
A final viewer suggested: “Caroline is just fuming at the idea that Richard, being a nice person is liked more by the public than she is.”
Despite receiving criticism from fans, some are encouraging others to keep her in the house, arguing that she provides more entertainment than her fellow co-stars.
