ALI is a forensic psychologist from Leicester who hopes to win big in the Big Brother house.
The hit show returned on October 6, 2024, and fans are excited about another series of iconic moments and scandals. Here’s everything you need to know about the Big Brother House’s latest tenant: Ali.
A late-in-life discovery
Ali is 35-years-old and lives in Leicester, home of Leicester FC whose members are known as “The Foxes”.
She has said that she is ‘unashamedly a late-in-life lesbian‘ and has been dating her current girlfriend for five months.
Fans have flocked to her social media accounts to show support for her after she was so open with her sexuality.
A forensic psychologist
Ali’s works as a forensic psychologist in her day job.
She said: “I think the fact that I’m a forensic psychologist will surprise people.
“It’s not your everyday, typical 9-5 office job.
“It’s quite difficult, it’s quite demanding and I work in highly stressful situations.
But I’m quite chilled and probably don’t look like the sort of person who can hold my own – in a prison for example.”
Despite the intensity of her 9-5 job, she said that she feels that she is “understanding” and “caring”.
Ali hopes this will make her someone that the Big Brother housemates can trust.
She has also said that she is “nosy” and that this is a big reason for her choosing to enter the house.
Big Brother begins
The 2024 series of Big Brother began on October 6, 2024, and fans can catch each episode of the show at 9pm.
The show will air nightly on ITV and ITVX (except on Saturdays) as the public votes out each contestant one-by-one.
They will be watched 24-hours-a-day on the cameras hidden around the house and will face challenges to win luxury items.
