A dramatic elimination episode of "Big Brother" aired Saturday night, just before the finale, and ended with Shelly Serebryanikov leaving the house after reaching the last sofa with Omer Tzipori, the season's couple. Tzipori reacted badly to her exit and burst into tears.
In an interview immediately after the eviction for Reshet 13's social channels, Serebryanikov said she was not surprised by the result. "I had a gut feeling," she said. Talking about being separated from Tzipori, she said, "It makes me cry. We were separated for a week, but right before that he told me he loved me and that he was sure he was going home. I told him, what movie are you living in? It's me."
Although the pair are only apart for a week, if Tzipori survives to the final and is not eliminated before then, Serebryanikov said the romance is serious. Asked whether she may have found the love of her life, she replied, "Yes. I did not think I would find such a big, pure, real and healthy love, without interests. So yes, I found the love of my life."
She added that she told Tzipori she would do everything possible to help their relationship thrive. Looking ahead, she predicted that the next housemate to be evicted would be Koren, and said the eventual winner would be Tzipori.
