Fresh out of the Big Brother house, Edward relives the moment he realised the letter “from Mum” wasn’t quite right. And how it felt when it suddenly turned into an eviction and what it was like to walk out without the chance to properly say goodbye. He explains why, despite the heartbreak, he’s a realist about the game and why he refused to take the decision personally.

In this revealing conversation, Edward opens up about the pressure-cooker reality of Big Brother. From missing his incredibly close family to the off-hand “I want to quit” moment that rattled live feed viewers. He explains why, even though he said it in the heat of emotion, actually walking out on his own was never really on the table.

We also tackle the so-called villain edit head on. Edward reacts to that viral “shut up” moment, how it felt seeing the audience response and why he takes full accountability for what he said while still insisting it’s a real snapshot of how humans behave under pressure. Which is the whole point of doing Big Brother.

Then there’s Mia. Edward breaks down their connection. What was friendship versus flirtation and how inexperience in the dating world may have blurred some lines. He also talks about the “still single” part of his life, why he’s actually content and answers some very direct questions about compromise, relationships and what might need to shift for the right person to come along.

Plus, we dig into his dynamic with Vinnie, the “fake” label that spiralled after the live nomination and how things really stand between them now that the dust has settled. Edward also shares who he thinks is the smartest housemate. And who he’s backing to win and whether we’ll be seeing him at the live finale.
