In the wee hours of Saturday live feeds on July 27, 2025, the cameras of Big Brother season 27 caught a backyard conversation between houseguests Keanu and Rylie. The conversation took a serious turn when both accused returning player and Big Brother 13 winner Rachel Reilly of attempting to cheat.
Keanu claimed that Rachel had written notes before the Head of Household (HOH) competition, a clear violation of the rules. He exclaimed, “That’s wild, bro! I looked too! She was writing notes!” This behavior suggested that Rachel may have been trying to gain an unfair advantage in the upcoming challenge by documenting information on cards.
The discussion then shifted to the perceived threat posed by Rachel in the game. Rylie and Keanu agreed that Rachel was a significant player who needed to be dealt with strategically. They discussed Rachel’s past alliances and how she was currently perceived in the house. Keanu revealed his plan to nominate three houseguests and potentially backdoor Rachel if necessary.
However, the conversation took a dramatic turn when Rylie accused Rachel of cheating by writing notes before the HOH competition. She claimed that Rachel had been seen writing on certain items and that production had to intervene by taking the cards away. Rylie expressed disbelief that Rachel was not immediately removed from the game for this violation, highlighting a lack of consequences for her actions.
Writing notes has a history of being a violation in various versions of Big Brother, leading to warnings or expulsions for houseguests. Past incidents include a contestant being removed from Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition 1 in 2006 and another being eliminated from Big Brother UK in 2000 for similar infractions. The U.S. version of the show has also issued warnings for similar behavior in the past.
As of now, no official statement has been released regarding Rachel’s alleged rule violation. Fans of the show are eagerly awaiting updates on the situation as the drama unfolds in the Big Brother house. Stay tuned to CBS to catch all the action in season 27 of Big Brother.
