‘I know what I need to do this week to get me further in this game. My target is definitely Memphis. I want people to see someone walk into the jury house and be completely shocked. I want it to be very impressive. Little old Nicole took him out, that’s what I want,’ she said in a confessional.
She pointed out that Memphis had previously nominated her for eviction and that Christmas conspired to eliminate her during the rare triple eviction.
Nicole beat out the other houseguests during the HoH competition which involved filling a basket on a seesaw with 25 pumpkins without any of them falling out.
Christmas with only two pumpkins left dropped one and had to start over.

Nicole invited everyone into her HoH room where she shared pictures of her family and received a letter from her fiance Victor Arroyo.
‘I wish you the best of luck throughout the rest of the season. I can’t wait to get married in December and finally be able to call you my wife. I’m sending love and positive vibes your way. I can’t wait to see you. Love Victor,’ wrote Victor who also competed on Big Brother 18.
