Big Brother’s Rome Seymour Breaks His Silence On The Explosive Tea Party Drama And Passionately Defends Jason De Puy Against Growing Criticism

Rome Seymour is no longer in the “Big Brother 28” house, as his fellow houseguests voted to evict him Thursday.

But the latest drama, which aired on live feeds Sunday night, would have played out differently had he still been in the game, he says.

The cast had a tea party Sunday, dressing up and doing exactly what it sounds like (having tea). However, tea ended up spilling, when Head of Household Kamu Kirk called out Jason De Puy for his gameplay, which Kirk appeared to think was dishonest and messy. Kirk also revealed he planned to nominate De Puy as his replacement nominee this week, once Lyric Medeiros likely plays the Power of Veto on herself.

“I’m going to stand up to what I think is right, and I don’t think that moment was right,” Seymour said. “Jason’s my friend and someone I feel really close with, and once he gets out of the house … we’re going to be best buddies. Anyone going at him, I’m going to take that personally.”
