Meet Zak, Big Brother 2023 housemate and model
Zak is facing the public vote on Friday night, after receiving the most nominations from his fellow housemates.
Big Brother has spoken: The latest nominees to face eviction will be Zak and Henry, as they go head to head and face the public vote on Friday night (20th October).
It was revealed on Wednesday's episode (18th October) that Zak had received the most nominations from his fellow housemates, which was a total of five from Hallie, Kerry, Chanelle, Jenkin and Henry.
Henry was next with four nominations, which came from Dylan, Olivia, Noky and Jenkin.
Votes are officially open now to the public to make their decision, with viewers asked to choose who they want to evict, rather than save.
Although Zak and Henry appeared to take their nominations well, Henry later admitted in the Diary Room that he was upset at the situation, but didn't want to cause a scene.
He then became emotional and started to cry, as he disclosed that he would be devastated to leave the house on Friday.
Meanwhile, Farida became the first housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother house last Friday (13th October) after she lost out to Kerry in the public vote.
Big Brother returned to our TV screens on ITV2 on Sunday 8th October, and featured 16 new contestants all living in the house with the hopes of winning a whopping £100,000 cash prize.
The housemates have been taking part in clever tasks and nail-biting nominations as they cross their fingers each night hoping they don't face eviction.
The public are playing a crucial role, voting throughout the series and ultimately deciding the winner.
Zak will be hoping to remain in the house as he goes up against Henry this week, after bursting into the Big Brother house with a "personality the world needs to see". Read on for everything you need to know about Big Brother 2023 housemate Zak.

Zak's friends and family have "always" told him he should go on TV, but Zak wasn't too taken with the idea of going on a dating show.
"I want to do a show where I could just be myself and get my personality out there and have a laugh with people," he explained.
