“Revenge of the returnees”
Winner
Nicole Franzel
Jury vote 5-4
Runner-up
Paul Abrahamian
AFP
Victor Arroyo
Key twist. Returnees vs. rookies + Secret Room with a round-trip ticket that could save one evicted player
Defining moment. Nicole became the first woman to beat a man in a Final 2 vote. Paul's aggressive gameplay couldn't overcome jury bitterness.
Fun fact. Nicole returned from BB16 and won her second time around — only the second returnee to win (after Rachel Reilly).
