It looks like the 10/10 housemates are cooking up yet another controversial plan – and this time, it’s all about switching beds.
Dede and Faith are leading the charge, determined to see the bed-switching game become a reality, with the support of HoH Rooboy. But as with everything in the house, the mechanics and motivations behind it are already leaving people conflicted.
At this stage of the game, the house is almost perfectly split down gender lines. The proposed game? Each housemate switches beds to see who they’d end up sharing with. The idea was pitched by Mide to Bright Morgan after the Saturday Night Turn Up. But Bright Morgan quickly made his stance clear: he wasn’t interested.
That didn’t stop Mide from pushing. For her, the game was about testing boundaries and seeing if her partner could hold it together under pressure. “Don’t test me,” Bright Morgan warned, insisting she could play if she wanted, but without him. Mide wasn’t convinced – saying his reluctance actually made her question whether he could resist temptation if another woman ended up in his bed.
Meanwhile, Dede’s motivations were more straightforward. She wants to see which female housemates the guys would actually choose if given the chance. Faith, on the other hand, suggested a twist: using a ballot system to let the women decide first. His reasoning? It would be harder for the men to say no if a woman made the choice, compared to a girl rejecting a guy. Jason Jae, though sceptical at first, seemed to be warming up to Faith’s idea. “Chakam,” he exclaimed after Faith’s pitch.
Still, the fear of rejection looms over the whole plan. What happens if someone shoots down an invitation to their bed? Awkward doesn’t even begin to cover it.
For Jason Jae, the issue of bed sharing is especially sensitive right now. He recently explained to Sultana why he broke his promise of choosing her as his HoH condo guest, saying that he didn’t know what might happen if they shared the HoH condo. With a girlfriend waiting outside the house, Jason Jae insists on avoiding unnecessary drama – even if it means stepping back from what might seem like harmless fun. But does a game really count?
With bed switching stirring up strong feelings and divided opinions, the real question is: will this bold idea actually take off in a house already packed with tension? Only time will tell.
