Big Brother viewers have labelled Matty ‘fake’ over his reaction to the security breach challenge on Tuesday’s episode.
Housemates were tasked with sitting in a box while their loved ones entered the house to speak to them, but they were not allowed to speak back.
Only half the housemates saw their loved ones as the other housemates had to decide who would get to see their family and friends and who wouldn’t.
Chanelle and Trish had to choose between Yinrun’s boyfriend and Matty’s boyfriend, with Yinrun’s ultimately entering the house.
After they returned to the house, Matty quickly broke down in tears upon learning he wouldn’t get to see his loved one.
Upset: Big Brother viewers have labelled Matty ‘fake’ over his reaction to the security breach challenge on Tuesday’s episode
Devastated: Matty broke down in tears after missing out on a chance to see his boyfriend
Awkward: He quickly perked up after learning that his boyfriend would have only communicated with him via webcam as he is currently in the US
When Chanelle and Trish told him it was his boyfriend who would have come in, Matty let out a wail of sorrow and began to cry even harder.
But he quickly perked up after learning that his boyfriend would have only communicated with him via webcam as he is currently in the US.
Unimpressed viewers took to X/Twitter to insist Matty’s crying was ‘fake’ and that they didn’t see any tears.
One wrote: ‘Not a f*****g tear in sight from Matty, fake,’ while another added: ‘Matty can’t fake cry for toffee’.
Another wrote: ‘Not Matty’s fake dramatic cry, get him out,’ while a fourth penned: ‘Matty’s fake crying was embarrassing.’
A fifth user wrote: ‘Oh please Matty, what rubbish, he’s not dead, you’re just apart, you didn’t even expect to be seeing him at this point.’
It comes after viewers demanded Jenkin be evicted from the show after his treatment of Yinrun, with many branding the Welshman a ‘bully’.
Viewers took to social media on Monday after spotting him ‘bullying’ his fellow housemate during the live feed, however the footage failed to make the main show.

It comes after the divided house saw a huge blazing row this week with the participants reportedly being locked down for over two hours before Paul and Dylan were both booted in a shock double eviction.
And fans were left horrified after watching Jenkin joyfully tell pals Tom and Olivia how he had refused to share his birthday cake with rival Yinrun.
Saying: ‘You know when you sung Happy birthday to me? She got a me a knife to cut everyone a piece of cake and I went “That’s where you’re mistaken”‘.
With Tom laughing: ‘That would go in the bin before you shared it right?’.
And Olivia agreeing: ‘Yep’.

Taking To X, formerly known as Twitter, one viewer wrote: ‘Jenkin is definitely a nasty Bully Get him out Of the Big Brother House #BBUK Making Trish & Yinrun Cry’.
While a second said: ‘Where is the clip where Jenkin told Yinrun she can’t have any cake. Why are the producers protecting this bully’.
Someone else said: ‘Jenkin is so fake. In the live yesterday he was bitching about Yinrun trying to cut up cake for everyone and how she didn’t deserve it to his 2 minions’.
And: ‘Perhaps @bbuk could show the real Jenkin – the one who was rude to Yinrun when she gave him a knife to cut the birthday cake’.
Another typed: ‘So I’m hearing Jenkin actually refused Yinrun some of his bday cake?? Yinrun has been making an effort to put herself out there with him and always gets shut down. Get jenkin out’.
Big Brother continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

TOM
AGE: 21

TRISH
AGE: 33
PROFESSION: Stay-at-home mum
FROM: Luton
WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITH THE PRIZE MONEY IF YOU WON? ‘I think my first priority is to sort out my housing situation. The housing crisis is just ridiculous and my housing situation has been unstable. It brings me a lot of mum guilt because I’ve got a young child. It’s my biggest incentive and motivation to win.’
JORDAN
AGE: 25
PROFESSION: Lawyer
FROM: Scunthorpe
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? ‘Being cantankerous and acting as if I don’t want to be there even if I do in my heart. They might nominate me for being disengaged perhaps or not paying everyone an equal amount of attention. They may feel left out but I can’t help that.’
NOKY
AGE: 26
PROFESSION: Banker
FROM: Derby
WHAT MADE YOU APPLY TO BECOME A BIG BROTHER HOUSEMATE? ‘I love challenges. I’ve had so many amazing times in my life, like going to Miss Universe as Miss Great Britain. I like to do something different and I think this is the next challenge I want to conquer. I want to show people what pageant girls are really like and disprove a lot of stereotypes around them. I also show what it’s like being a woman who’s worked in male- dominated fields. I want to show that women are capable of doing anything they want.’
YINRUN
AGE: 25
PROFESSION: Customer support agent
FROM: Harrogate
WHAT PART OF THE EXPERIENCE ARE YOU MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO? ‘I’m most excited about being surrounded by so many people from different walks of life. I don’t think I will ever live in a house again with so many different kinds of people. I’m from China and I think it will help me be more immersed in British culture.’
CHANELLE
AGE: 29
PROFESSION: Dental therapist
FROM: Llanelli
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO BE NOMINATED FOR? ‘Probably just for being annoying. In Wales, we have this saying, “I’ll do it now in a minute.” So like, if I went to make food and I left a dish on the side, I have all good intentions of washing it but I’d be like, “I’ll do it now in a minute,” and it might be three hours later before I do it. So probably for silly stuff like that.’
MATTY
AGE: 24
PROFESSION: Doctor
FROM: Isle Of Man
HOW WOULD YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? ‘They would say I’m quite like a lucky person or someone who really wants to experience life to its fullest and do everything that it has to offer. Someone who is kind and fun and doesn’t take life too seriously.’
HENRY
AGE: 25
PROFESSION: Food writer
FROM: Cotswolds
HOW WOULD YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY DESCRIBE YOU? ‘I think they would say I’m particularly sociable and very chatty. I mean, I’ll be honest, my parents would definitely say I’m a bit of a snob but I take it as a compliment. I think it means you’ve got high standards and good taste. They’d say I was quite a peculiar child.’
OLIVIA
AGE: 23
PROFESSION: Dancer
FROM: Glasgow
WHAT ARE YOU MOST LIKELY TO GET NOMINATED FOR? ‘I think when people are in that hangry state, that’s when I’ll wind people up and grind their gears. I think they’ll nominate me for being full on, and for my brutal honesty and oversharing of opinions.’
