Criticism and Controversy

Former housemate James Rhine admitted during his time in All-Stars that he convinced the Friendship alliance that one of the perks of being HOH is that none of the conversations were aired on the live feeds. It was reported in a Reddit post that because of this information, a bunch of them shared "unsavory facts" about themselves. Maggie revealed that she was involved in a lawsuit for wrongful death. It's unclear how involved she was.
