Big Brother viewers rushed to praise housemate Hallie after she made a tearful and candid confession during Thursday’s show.
The 18-year-old admitted she was ‘so used to being on her own’ during a discussion about living with 14 other people in the iconic house.
The emotional outpouring also saw her tell NHS manager Kerry, 40, what she hoped to achieve from her time on the show.
Wiping away tears Hallie, who bravely came out as transgender in an earlier episode, confessed: ‘The one thing I want to get out of this experience is like, learning to open up’.
Taking to X, formerly Twitter, one viewer wrote: ‘Hallie is an impressive young woman’.

And: ‘Hallie from Big Brother 2023 is the only girl showing girl code and friendship in that house! Always there for everyone she’s such a beautiful soul’.
While someone else said: ‘Hallie you are f******* beautiful . 18 years old your family should be proud’.
Another fan gushed: ‘Hallie is stunning. Tell her Big Brother’.
Earlier in the episode, housemate Farida broke down in tears as she candidly opened up about her family and her religion.
The Muslim make-up artist, 50, opened up to Hallie who viewers have branded the ‘therapist’ of the house.
Farida struggled to contain herself as she spoke about her difficult childhood with her parents losing their business and the family ending up homeless.
Farida then said she ‘holds onto her prayers’ in order to deal with the grief and ‘trauma’ of losing her father.

Hallie was quick to comfort her fellow housemate after doing the same thing for Kerry moments earlier after she struggled with eating salad in the house.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, one viewer said: ‘Hallie is just a sweetheart isn’t she?’.
With a second writing: ‘I’m waiting outside the Big Brother house to get a counselling session from Hallie’.
Upset: Earlier in the episode, housemate Farida broke down in tears as she candidly opened up about her family and her religion – before being comforted by Hallie
Someone else commented: ‘I hope Hallie doesn’t burn out taking on everyone’s emotions, she’s only 18 and the adults are leaning on her a lot. Hopefully Kerry gets a pork sausage soon’.
And: ‘Farida and Hallie have the most beautiful conversations about life. First about Hallie being trans and now Farida and her religion. This is Big brother in it’s purest form’.
With another saying: ‘I love Big Brother, showing Kerry wining about veg and then poor Farida getting upset over her late dad, the juxtaposition’.

WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO BE NOMINATED FOR? ‘Probably just for being annoying.

So probably for silly stuff like that.’

They’d say I was quite a peculiar child.’
KERRY
AGE: 40
PROFESSION: NHS manager
FROM: Essex
WHAT MADE YOU APPLY TO BE A BIG BROTHER HOUSEMATE? ‘I love the programme. It is, for me, the ultimate reality TV show ever. I’ve got multiple sclerosis and so the reason why I never applied before is because I always saw those whacking great big stairs to get into the house. It just felt a little bit unachievable because for the first three years of my illness I was in a wheelchair. When I saw it was coming back and searching for real people from all walks of life, I thought, this is my year.’
