Big Brother spoilers follow.
Big Brother viewers showed their support for Jenkin Edwards as he shared his vulnerabilities.
The Welshman has had a rough time since arriving in the house, becoming the unfortunate victim of some show antics as his suitcase was ‘blown up’.
He was also told he wouldn’t have access to hot water, before being voted Least Trustworthy and Least Funny by the housemates in tonight’s (October 9) episode.
The bad luck got to Jenkin as he confided to Big Brother in the Diary Room, with the housemate breaking down as he admitted it had been a rough ride thus far.
He garnered wide support on social media, with several fans agreeing that he had been treated harshly upon his entry in the house.
“If anyone deserves to have a bit of a breakdown day 2 it’s definitely Jenkin. Bless him he’s had a lot of shit thrown his way so early #Bbuk” wrote one fan on X, with another adding: “When jenkin cries i cry. #BBUK #BigBrotherUK #jenkin.”
“All I want to do is give Jenkin a big hug & say ‘Don’t blend in when you were born to stand out;. #BBUK take note from @planetjedward” wrote another viewer, whilst a fellow fan wrote: “oh I feel for Jenkin so much, give him his suitcase and hot water! #BBUK.”
Don’t worry Jenkin, your time will come! #BBUK

Elsewhere in tonight’s instalment, Olivia succeeded in the secret mission she had been given by Big Brother, with the dancer being deemed the third most entertaining housemate by Henry.
This meant she was granted immunity for the first eviction, with Olivia understandably delighted by this news.
There was also a touching moment as Hallie came out as transgender to her housemates, with them all subsequently sharing their pronouns with each other.
Big Brother airs on Sundays to Fridays at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.
