Cracking up though bc I’m pretty sure my comment got deleted from the ramble live chat tonight. The comment was “I’ve never watched his jubilee videos or her standup videos 😌” likeee #iambuffoon
I’m sorry I know I shouldn’t but I really want to see a ramble rewatch of an eviction episode with the shout out. It’s just so funny looking back. #grateful
And telling someone to their face you want to punch them is extremely different than saying in the diary room that you felt like punching someone so DONT START WITH ME
Agree but also she has said some crazy stuff so I don’t give her a pass for this. Like if it was a one time thing I would be more understanding but she genuinely does not gaf about Mel or Drew when they haven’t disrespected her once on a personal level since the game ended.
Not defending lala, but I don’t think she was aware at how insane some of these people genuinely are when it comes to melody w any man in general but specifically Barrett #bb28
I read the first few sentences of this and to clarify my own opinion, I don’t think it’s weird that he went with her in this scenario, I think it’s weird that he said “no one in their right mind lets their daughter (who’s 30) go to Brooklyn alone.” Like those are 2 diff things
I don’t owe anyone an explanation as to why, at 30, I had my stepdad come to NY with me. But since it’s somehow become a topic of conversation, let’s turn this into an appreciation post. ❤️
I was barely TWO weeks out of the Big Brother house when I traveled to NY. I was still incredibly overwhelmed, trying to adjust to life outside the house, and after seeing some of the things being said online, I was honestly terrified to walk into a watch party. I had no idea what to expect, and the last thing I wanted was to do it alone.
Unless you’ve experienced being completely cut off from your family, friends, and the outside world for 2 months, it’s hard to fully understand what that adjustment feels like. You’re suddenly thrown back into reality, trying to process everything you missed, everything that happened, and everything people have to say about you. It’s an experience that’s incredibly difficult to explain, and I truly believe only those who have lived it can fully understand the emotional weight that comes with it.
After someone backed out, I still chose to go because I had made a commitment, and keeping my word matters to me.
On top of everything, I was back on a heart monitor and navigating some personal health concerns. Sam offered to come with me, and I’m so incredibly thankful he did.
We had the BEST time. 😂 After being gone all summer, it gave us an opportunity to catch up! . Most importantly, I felt safe, loved, and supported during a time when I really needed it.
What a strange world we live in where a father showing up for his daughter, regardless of her age, is somehow something people feel the need to question!
I’m 30 years old, and I’ll never be too old to appreciate having a father figure who shows up for me.
So instead of making this about drama, I’m making it about gratitude. Thank you, Sam, for being there when I needed ya ❤️
Ps - you will never get your flannel back 😂 love ya!
Have an amazing day everyone! 🤭

But aside from that, yikes @ chuk. This is pretty crazy and disrespectful stuff. Baffled why he would make a cameo about this if this is the true story.
In the wake of the fallout between Chuck and Haley… While each of us has the right to form our own opinion of them individually, none of us has the right to make up our own facts.
And as her Step-Father, I feel the record needs to be set straight:
Prior to Haley leaving the Big Brother show, my wife had reached out to Chuck. He was excited to discuss his feelings on everything “Big Brother” related, from his thoughts on the houseguests themselves to his own experience on the show. He was even placed into a Family Text Message Group where all of us interacted from time to time.
Chuck even floated the idea of flying to St. Louis to meet Haley when she got off the plane after the TV show. He asked that he be one of the first people Haley called. We told Chuck he was welcome to stay at our house if he decided to make the trip.
The two of them FaceTimed daily. In fact, I think Haley recently posted their phone log. And as shown, a vast majority of those calls were initiated by Chuck.
The first Chuck Issue (let’s call them “Chissues”) was a September 2026 Big Brother Alumni gathering held in New York. Both Chuck and Haley were supposed to attend. There were even flyers distributed about the event, featuring both of their pictures as attending guests. At the last minute, Chuck decided he wasn't going. Leaving Haley to navigate New York on her own. Nobody in their right mind lets their daughter go to Brooklyn on her own, so I went with her. She even FaceTimed Chuck in from the event so he could meet some of the people in attendance.
We returned home, and they continued their daily FaceTime interactions.
The next Chissue was during the Big Brother finale in Los Angeles, where Chuck couldn't wait for Haley to show up. I know this because they had spoken on multiple occasions, during which Chuck voiced his excitement about them finally reuniting after leaving the show… his demeanor was likened to a kid talking about Christmas morning.
Chuck hung out with the family multiple times over those few days in L.A., from going shopping with us to bringing him home from the finale night to taking him to breakfast the following morning.
And during none of those conversations or interactions was there a single hint that Haley was becoming an imposition. Nor was there any mention of political differences, misaligned feelings toward various houseguests, or any other disagreements/issues Chuck had regarding his Big Brother experience and our perception of it. He was very forthcoming and honest, and unless he was just blowing smoke up our a**es, we were all aligned from an ideological perspective.
And once again, as always, their FaceTime interactions continued daily.
Which brings us to a couple of weeks ago… the night of the falling out…
This was a pre-planned Big Brother alumni meeting in Dallas, TX. Again, preceded by Chuck acting like a kid on Christmas morning, repeatedly asking Haley to stay at his place.
Haley flew down to Dallas on October 29… and the next Chissue transpired…
Now Haley and Chuck are truly just friends. Nothing has ever happened beyond friendship, and neither of them has acted differently or said otherwise.
So it was a bit odd for Chuck to take a picture of Haley sitting on his bed, without her knowing, and post it online without her consent…
Solely to insinuate there was more to the relationship beyond a platonic friendship.
And regardless of the series of events that transpired up until the night of October 30, 2026… this is exactly what happened:
Chuck, after drinking heavily the entire night and not eating, shoved a girl in a crowded bar because she had bumped into him. He then got into a verbal altercation with that girl’s boyfriend. This event has been corroborated by multiple people who were witnesses to the event.
And no, Haley wasn't sympathetic to Chuck's plight because she's never going to accept that type of behavior from a man.
Chuck and Haley leave the bar at the end of the night, they head back to Chuck's apartment, and starting in the elevator ride up to his floor, Chuck begins to go off on Haley about how she's not a friend, never was a friend, she should have had his back at the bar, she doesn't know anything about him or his life, how she deserves every abusive relationship she’s ever been in, and how his big brother career was destroyed by her.
Now how do we know all of this is true and not a skewed version of the facts by the person recounting it?
Because Haley told him she was recording the conversation so he could hear how cruel he was when he sobered up the next morning… and she did just that.
They arrived at his apartment, and after a few more minutes of him lashing out at her, he finally told her to get “TF out of his house.” She had 5 minutes to pack her “shit” and get out.
So to fully understand where we are during the events that played out that night…
It’s 3 a.m.; there’s a single, 30-year-old woman standing with all of her bags in the hallway of an apartment complex… in a city she doesn’t know… no car, no place to stay… and her phone, which had a barbell dropped on it earlier that day at the gym, sporadically losing signal and then regaining it again… fully known by Chuck to be extremely unreliable.
And right after Chuck slammed the door shut, Haley heard him bolt it from the other side.
He then systematically proceeded to block her in every way he could… from his phone's contact list to all his social media accounts.
And for all of you fathers out there… that’s really all you need to know.
When someone puts your daughter in harm's way… after accepting the role of “Protector” by asking her to stay with them (repeatedly asking her to be more precise)...
You can have a disagreement. You can get pissed off. You have every right to tell a person, “As soon as it gets light outside, you need to get your shit and get out.”
But you don’t get to shove women... ever, nor do you get to throw a woman out of your apartment at 3 am with nowhere to go and no reliable way to contact someone who can help her.
At least not if you’re a man.
And you certainly don’t get to play the victim and pretend like someone was “bothering you"... All you wanted was for them to go away,” when you were calling them daily and begging them to come stay with you.
So for all of these reasons, but most of all because of the lack of integrity…
Fuck Chuck.
@mediaobsessed99@username25350 I thought Dee and Mel were pretty much the same height in the house. I saw Mel in person and I’m 99 percent sure she is not 5 4 but maybe I’m wrong 🤷♀️
@username25350@mediaobsessed99 Honestly yeah like I kept saying after I saw her that she reminded me of a Polly pocket like she also just has a really small frame imo so maybe that’s distorting her height to me but even with her like 4 inch heels she still seemed super short. Dee is also pretty tiny
@mediaobsessed99@username25350 At least she didn’t seem that way to me and was wearing really big pumps. Are you sure they were saying they were all 5 4 in the house? I thought Mel was like 5 2
