Seven Housemates Face Eviction as House Splits in Two
Seven contestants took part in the public vote during the twelfth episode of Grande Fratello Vip 9 on October 23, 2026, as host Ilary Blasi led the broadcast on Canale 5 alongside commentators Cesara Buonamici and Selvaggia Lucarelli, according to Sky TG24. The sprawling televoting ballot included Jonathan Kashanian, Guendalina Tavassi, Andreas Müller, Marina La Rosa, Megan Ria, Giacomo Gallani, and Alessandro Roncaccia, setting up a high-stakes eviction night that followed days of mounting friction inside the Cinecittà house.
House Divides Over Veteran and Youth Factions
The reality show’s living quarters grew increasingly tense as the cast fractured into two distinct camps, The Sports Gazette reported. Older housemates accused the younger contestants of playing it safe and refusing to take risks, while the younger group pushed back against what they viewed as targeted attacks. This generational divide fueled several anticipated clashes during the broadcast, including a confrontation between Giacomo Gallani and Guendalina Tavassi over whether their personal strategies compromised the game.
Romance and Showmance Accusations Take Center Stage
Romantic developments drew scrutiny from both housemates and viewers, notably when Piera Meloni and Alessandro Roncaccia shared their first televised kiss on camera, as detailed by The Sports Gazette. Roncaccia also faced off against Alex Belli over accusations that both men capitalized on their romantic attachments to advance further in the competition. Marina La Rosa found herself stationed on the “hot chair” to address heavy criticism from her peers, iO Donna reported. Housemates took aim at her provocative gameplay, specifically targeting a remark where she admitted she planned to pretend she was friends with Jonathan Kashanian just to nominate him later.
Four Contestants Land in New Nomination Round
As the twelfth episode drew to a close, the remaining housemates participated in a mixed format of palese and confidential nomination sessions, Mediaset Infinity reported. Giulia Provvedi and Danto secured immunity from the public vote after successfully completing the “aviary” bird costume challenge in the garden. With those two safe, the subsequent voting cycle left Marina La Rosa, Alex Belli, Alessandro Roncaccia, and Valeria Marini facing the public televote to determine who risks elimination next.
