BIG Brother’s Mickey Lee has shared her thoughts about her housemates, Vince Panaro and Morgan Pope’s close bond, and whether their relationship will blossom after the show.
Mickey spilled all the tea about what she saw inside the Big Brother house following her departure from the show on Thursday.

The TV star was evicted from the household at the end of the September 4 episode and shortly after sat down with Entertainment Weekly to unpack her last few weeks on the series.
In addition to giving her take on why she didn’t secure the votes to stay and how her strategy failed her in the end, Mickey also discussed the showmance that fans can’t stop talking about.
At one point, the interviewer asked how Mickey viewed the touchy-feely friendship between Vince and Morgan, which was apparent to viewers on the outside.
“Morgan and Vinny definitely will probably be in a relationship after this is over,” the reality star predicted.
“They are the showmance that no one saw coming — showering together, spending a lot of time together, sleeping in the same beds, back scratches, head rubs, all of the things,” Mickey continued.
“I think they are two people that were put in there for each other and didn’t know it. But I definitely see the sparks flying. I definitely see maybe a wedding at one point. I sense it, for sure.”
Fans have also speculated that the pair might be more than friends and co-stars while watching their interactions on the show’s 24/7 live feed.
NOT FOOLING ANYONE
As Mickey mentioned, Vince and Morgan have been spotted sharing intimate moments, including showering beside each other and often cuddling in bed.
Earlier this week, fans even thought they caught Vince whispering “I love you” to Morgan and kissing her while she lay in bed and their housemates were asleep.
Viewers previously called out the duo for “emotionally cheating” as they appeared to have gotten close early on the show.
However, their relationship has seemingly escalated to the point that those around them – and watching at home – have taken notice.
Former Big Brother star Isaiah ‘Zae’ Frederich recently told The U.S. Sun in an exclusive chat that he believed Vince had “crossed a line” with Morgan, considering he has a girlfriend back at home.
Vince’s longtime girlfriend, Kelsey, has also acknowledged her man’s affectionate behavior toward Morgan, telling The U.S. Sun that she felt “humiliated” over the situation.
Kelsey has apparently reached her breaking point, as fans have noticed that she recently unfollowed Vince on Instagram.

Vince isn’t aware of the scrutiny flooding social media over his on-screen antics, or Kelsey’s unfollow, since contestants don’t have access to the Internet while on the show.
The Season 27 contestant narrowly escaped elimination this week after winning the BB Blockbuster challenge, saving himself for another week.
However, the September 28 finale is approaching quickly, especially with one episode removed from the season due to upcoming schedule changes.
Big Brother won’t air this Sunday like usual due to the MTV Video Music Awards and has been bumped to Tuesday night instead.
The following week, the series was nixed entirely from the TV lineup in favor of the Emmy Awards and has not been scheduled for another time slot.
