She emerged ahead of Aikou and Sheba, who finished as the first and second runners-up, respectively, in a finale that brought an end to more than two months of competition, drama, friendships, romance, conflicts, and strategic gameplay.

Barry became the first finalist to leave the competition, followed by Oyin and Ricky. Flora and Tram were subsequently evicted before Bluethopia became the sixth housemate to leave the competition during the finale.

Ten housemates initially secured spots in the grand finale, but the number was reduced to nine after Keivo was disqualified following a physical altercation with Tram during the final week.
