Who was the first housemate to be evicted from Big Brother 2023?

Farida bids farewell to the Big Brother house

Farida Khalifa became the first housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother 2023 reboot. The 50-year-old makeup artist lost out to her rival Kerry in Friday night's fan vote. However, Farida left the house on a positive note, expressing her gratitude to everyone and hoping to inspire others from her faith.

A clash of personalities

Farida and Kerry were the two housemates up for eviction on Friday the 13th of October. The NHS manager and the makeup artist nominated each other for eviction, citing their differences. Farida criticized Kerry for being a "gossip" and having "mini tantrums," while Kerry found Farida hard to like and accused her of looking down on her.
