Before leaving the house, Brooklyn , 34, snapped at her former roommates who voted her out, “You guys will never know which team my husband plays for.”

Her comment raised fans’ eyebrows as she appeared to play into the cast’s chatter that her husband is a famous sports star.

Hours after her elimination, Brooklyn clarified her remark during an Exit Interview on Rob Has A Podcast .

“That was the narrative that was going around the house is that that is my secret is that my husband is an MLB baseball player or that I’m a child actress,” the TV star told hosts Rob Cesternino and Taran Armstrong.

“I wanted to keep it going and make them scheme a little more,” Brooklyn admitted.

She also noted that her ex-housemate Chelsie Baham, 27, is the only one of her costars aware of her pageant and dance background.

Brooklyn was crowned Mrs America in 2021 – one year after earning the title of Mrs Texas .

She is also a professional dancer, which she’s said in previous interviews, her experience performing at theme parks and in the theater prepared her for the pageant world.

Meanwhile, Brooklyn’s husband isn’t the MLB star she led her castmates to believe.

The TV personality is married to Puerto Rican-born Eddie Rivera, a former US Marine .

He served at Fort McClellan in 1995 and transferred to the Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point in 1997.

Brooklyn and Eddie are advocates for veteran mental health.

Many Big Brother fans were left shook after Brooklyn’s shock elimination.

Viewers complained on social media that the move made things too easy for her costar Tucker Des Lauriers , 30, who appeared to soar on by.

Brooklyn defended her actions, saying she didn’t want the meat and cheese to “go to waste.”
