The fans think that Memphis Garrett cheated on his girlfriend with Christmas Abbott on Big Brother 22: All-Stars, but that’s not exactly true. It’s been a difficult season for Memphis and the perception that the fans have of him on the show. On BB10, Memphis was part of the Renegades alliance with Dan Gheesling. Together, they got all the way to the Final 2, but Dan won the $500,000 grand prize over his friend and ally. In 2020, Memphis got a second chance at winning the show by being cast on BB22. During the season, he formed the dominant Committee alliance.
After winning three Head of Household competitions and one Power of Veto competition on Big Brother 22, Memphis landed on the nomination block for the very first time. As the HOH, Nicole Franzel decided to take a shot at Memphis after he put her up on the block during the Triple Eviction episode. Ultimately, Memphis felt safe due to his two Final 3 deals, both of which are called the Wise Guys. However, Nicole, Cody, and Enzo spent the entire week thinking about the benefits of evicting him in the game. Meanwhile, the fans started to conjure up theories regarding Memphis’ close friendship with Christmas.
As previously reported by Screen Rant, Danielle Murphree from BB14 and Kat Dunn from BB21 chimed in on the tweets and videos being shared by the Big Brother: All-Stars live feed viewers. These posts and clips accused Memphis and Christmas of getting too close to each other, implying that there might be something more intimate happening between them. But when Big Brother 6 star Beau Beasley tweeted out the original Screen Rant story, Memphis’ girlfriend Dominique Scalise took the time to address the matter. In a tweet (seen below), Dominique responded to the claim that she had deleted all the pictures that included Memphis from her Instagram: “I never had any pictures on my Instagram. I’m more of a close friends story kinda girl.”
It must be noted that Dominique’s Instagram profile was set to private since Big Brother 22 started. As such, the fans found it weird that Dominique made her profile public after the season ran for this long. The viewers were also puzzled by the fact that her now-public IG grid didn’t feature a single photo of Memphis. However, it’s also very important to note that this has been a particularly tough season for the All-Stars’ significant others. Some of them had been on the show before, but most of them have never dealt with this amount of exposure and are struggling to speak their mind and defend themselves in the midst of such intense social media activity. That said, it’s good news that Dominique has shut down any further rumors and speculation.
There are only a few weeks left on Big Brother: All-Stars, and the game is heating up. At this point, the fans are eager to see who will take home the $500,000 grand prize in the end.
Big Brother 22: All-Stars airs Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays at 8pm EST on CBS.
