EXCLUSIVE: Big Brother's Katie and Daniel's SHOCK showdown

The pair are battling it out in the Big Brother house. - by New Idea
  • 10 May 2021

Since she arrived in the Big Brother house, an intense rivalry between Katie Williams and Daniel Hayes has been growing.

And this week is set to see the two go head-to-head as they try to outwit and outsmart each other. While Katie doesn’t know what Big Brother will throw at them, she knows that she won’t let Daniel get the best of her.

“We have no idea what’s around the corner for any of us,” Katie tells New Idea.

“No-one is safe and Big Brother is in control, but I’m not scared of Danny. I will continue to take him on. He seems to have it out for me! But I won’t back down.”

As for whether she would ever consider forming an alliance with Daniel, Katie is quick to admit that she “will never work with him”, but will “play him” instead.

From the get-go, Daniel and Katie have been at odds with one another.

“I 100 per cent cannot trust Danny,” the 27-year-old adds. “He will do anything to win. He wants to win at all costs. That’s not how I play.”

Indeed, her strategy is to “be unapologetically myself. To back myself and compete at 110 per cent. To be real, raw and honest with my people. To be genuine and to support others in the house.”

Katie's plan is to be unapologetically herself in the Big Brother house.

The minute Katie entered the house, Big Brother didn’t hesitate to shove some surprises right in her face.

Katie was just settling into her new digs when in walked her former flame, Max Beattie.

"You're kidding," Max said as he went over to greet her.

Katie however looked a little more excited, laughing and she exclaimed, "Oh my god, that's my ex!"

It shouldn't come as a surprise given everyone knows everyone in the ever-connected realm of reality TV, but Max isn't Katie's only now famous ex.

Katie was stunned when her ex-boyfriend Max entered the house.

The ex-Australian sprinter previously dated Married At First Sight groom Mikey Pembroke, with the romance lasting over a year.

While it's unclear exactly why and when the couple split, the pair were first pictured together on Instagram in July 2017, and the last couple photo Katie posted of her former boyfriend was in April 2018.

Both of their feeds featured happy couple snaps from their time together, as well as sweet messages of support to one another so it's likely their break up was fairly amicable.
