Feyisola Akintoye for Big Brother 2025 / ITV
Age: 33
From: London
Occupation: Financial Investigator
Why did you apply to be on the show?
“It’s crazy. I’ve watched the show since I was a child. I’m obsessed with game shows. Literally. And obsessed with TV and watching TV. And I thought, ‘you know what? This is an opportunity. Why not go for it?’. I’ve been quite ill for the last few years, I’m finally feeling better, and I was like, ‘now’s the time, why not just do it’.”
What will you bring to the house?
“I will be cooking, for sure. I’ve got a lot of chaotic energy, it’s who I am. And I think I’m really good at tasks and quizzes and that sort of thing. So hopefully I’ll be like the task master extraordinaire.”
Do you have a strategy?
“It’s so cheesy but just being myself! That’s it. That’s my strategy.”
What would you do with the prize money if you won?
“I’d buy something ridiculous for my cat because why not? I’d take my nieces and nephews on holiday. I’ve got Crohn’s colitis, so I’ll give some money to charity. And I’ve never gone travelling, I’ve worked since I was 16, so I’d probably just take myself on a really long extended holiday.”
Big Brother airs Sunday to Friday at 9pm on ITV2.
