In Big Brother season 26, episode 20, Rubina and Tucker officially announced their relationship. While the two have been in a showmance for a while now, they have tried to keep it under wraps from the other houseguests because they were worried it would hamper their game.
However, in the latest episode, they decided to let everyone know as Tucker carried Rubina out of a room in his arms. The cast cheered and celebrated the couple and the moment proved to be an emotional one for Rubina.
She cried as she told the Big Brother season 26 cast that she didn’t want to develop feelings for Tucker, who agreed with her. Acknowledging the game, Tucker said he knew it could hurt their strategy, but the two didn’t care.
As the cast joked around, Chelsie said Rubina was her “girl.” Tucker shot back jokingly and said, “My girl.”
