Who won Big Brother 2023? Jordan is crowned WINNER as he takes home £100,000 cash prize… but the live audience still chant for fan favourite Yinrun as they say she was ‘robbed’

Jordan was crowned the 2023 winner of Big Brother during Friday night’s hotly-anticipated grand final.

The drama-packed series finally came to a close on ITV on Friday with Jordan taking home the life-changing £100,000 cash prize.

Hosts AJ Odudu and Will Best confirmed that he had won the series, with Jordan immediately joking that he would pay his council tax with the whopping cash prize.

Although many fans were thrilled to see Jordan crowned as the winner, some argued that fan favourite Yinrun had been ‘robbed’ of victory as she came in fourth place.

Even though Yinrun had already been evicted, the live audience could still be heard chanting her name as Jordan was crowned winner.

Jordan narrowly beat Olivia to the Big Brother crown as she came in second, with Henry coming in third, Yinrun fourth and Noky in fifth place.

Reacting to his win, viewers took to X – formerly known as Twitter – to share their upset that Yinrun didn’t win as they argued she was ‘robbed’ of the victory.

One wrote: ‘Yinrun in 4th was not something i expected,’ another said: ‘Yinrun should have won.’

A third commented: ‘I wanted Yinrun to win sooo bad! I’m gutted,’ and a fourth fumed: ‘You mean to tell me I just waited 6 weeks of #BigBrother for Yinrun to NOT win.’

One said: ‘Yinrun’s out that’s a shocker!!’ and another added: ‘YINRUN??? FOURTH??? ARE YOU JOKING???’

Yinrun had been the bookies’ favourite to be crowned the 2023 Big Brother winner until she was knocked out of the top spot at the last minute earlier this week.

However, other viewers took to social media to heap praise on Jordan and said he ‘deserved’ to win.

One wrote: ‘So so please and chuffed for him,’ while another said: ‘Well done Jordan!!, and a third added: ‘So chuffed Jordan won.’

Memories: After his victory, Jordan caught up with AJ and Will about his time on the show, and his famous love triangle with Henry and Matty

Another tweeted: ‘I’m so happy that Jordan won! All five of the finalists were good and strong and if any of them won it would’ve been nice but I voted for Jordan and rooted for him since the start!’

After his victory, Jordan caught up with AJ and Will about his time on the show, which featured a whole host of memorable moments including his famous love triangle with Henry and Matty.

After the drama, Henry and Jordan then shared a very steamy kiss in the hot tub as they grew closer on the show, winning fans over with their connection.

When asked about the love triangle, he said: ‘In there, you get very bored so the eyes do wander.’

He also jokingly reflected on calling his relationship with Henry ‘platonic’ despite their smooches, saying: ‘I want to go and read up on platonic love when I get out.’

Jordan also cheekily teased at his and Henry’s plans after leaving the Big Brother house as he said they had spoken about getting a hotel room.

‘Henry and I, we made a promise that whoever wins, we’d go to a five-star hotel, somewhere decent,’ he said.

When asked why he thought the public crowned him the winner, he said: ‘Haven’t the foggiest, but I’m so grateful they did!’

Olivia came closely behind in second place as she narrowly missed out on being crowned the winner.

Meanwhile, Henry came in third place and dished some details on his relationship with Jordan after leaving the house.

Speaking about his bond with Jordan after his exit, he said: ‘I couldn’t imagine my experience in there without him, he’s such a funny person… when he lets you in, it’s a wonderful experience.’

He also joked about luring Jordan into the hot tub for the smooch, as he said: ‘On night one he said he was never going in that hot tub, and he did!’ 

Asked how he felt about the love triangle with Matty, he said: ‘I have no idea, at the time Jordan was talking to me in riddles and it was like solving a rubix cube!’

Will then asked Henry what was next for him and Jordan, and he confirmed that they have plans to jet around the world together. 

‘We have so many plans, we have a New York trip planned, we are going to go to Florence… we’ve got all these plans which I think are going to be great,’ he gushed.

Appearing in the live audience, Henry’s mother confirmed that she approved of his match up with Jordan. 

Reflecting on his time on the show, Henry added: ‘It genuinely has really impacted me and I think I’m leaving a much better person than when I walked in.’ 

Despite being favourite to win for weeks, Yinrun came in fourth place during the hotly-anticipated live final, only coming ahead of Noky.

The live audience could be heard booing when her eviction was announced and she said goodbye to her fellow housemates.

After her eviction, Yinrun caught up with hosts AJ and Will and reflected on her time in the house, admitting she didn’t expect to make ‘any friends’ in the house as she gushed over her now close friendships with her co-stars. 

Meanwhile, Noky came in fifth place and was the first contestant to be evicted from the house in the final and join hosts AJ and Will to reflect on her time on the show.

Speaking about what she thought viewers liked about her, she said: ‘I think I kept it real throughout, I had a lot of resistance from my fellow housemates… but I think people probably appreciated that authenticity.’

When asked what was next for her, she added: ‘I’m really excited to start the next part of my life, I’ve been in a bubble the past few years, I wanted to learn more about myself… I feel like I wore my heart on my sleeve and I’m very proud of myself.’ 

Although the 2023 series has ended, applications for the next series of Big Brother are already open.

OLIVIA 

AGE: 23

PROFESSION: Dancer

FROM: Glasgow

WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? ‘I think when people are in that hangry state, that’s when I’ll wind people up and grind their gears. I think they’ll nominate me for being full on, and for my brutal honesty and oversharing of opinions.’
