For Immediate Release
TORONTO, May 3, 2019 – After dominating the house all season-long, the strongest and most unstoppable alliance in Big Brother Canada history – The Pretty Boys – was terminated. In a unanimous vote, Edmonton travel guide, Mark Drelich, was sent home in one of the season’s most scandalous eviction ceremonies.
“I probably should have campaigned a bit to Adam, but I already knew he was pretty much a done deal and his vote going to go to Dane,” said Mark Drelich. “But I did think it was a done deal – 135 per cent.”
Shocking the entire house – and all of Canada – in their first ever competition win, Kyra Shenker won last week’s head of household competition, nominating their closest allies Adam and Dane for eviction, in a blockbuster blindside. And in an explosive retaliation, Adam exposed the strength of The Pretty Boys alliance and their ability to convince the houseguests – week after week – to evict every single agent who got in their way. As things heated up in the house and the foursome continued to implode, Adam took himself off the block by winning a game-changing POV. But with Mark going up as the replacement nominee and some incredible gameplay from mastermind Anthony and agent Dane, Mark was sent home – a backdoor mission completed by his very own alliance.
Watch Mark’s first exclusive sit-down with ET Canada at 7:30 p.m. ET on Global.
For fans looking for an extra dose of Big Brother Canada, eviction night begins on ET Canada.

Airing exclusively on Global, Big Brother Canada plucks a group of hand-picked strangers from their homes, sequesters them from the outside world, and places them inside a house outfitted wall-to-wall with cameras and microphones that capture their every move. Each week the houseguests battle in a series of challenges that give them power or punishment, voting each other out until the fate of the final two is decided by a jury of fellow houseguests. This season, the winner of Big Brother Canada will take home a grand prize of $100,000, a $25,000 home furnishing makeover from Leon’s, $10,000 worth of groceries courtesy of Summer Fresh, and an unforgettable trip for two anywhere in the world with Contiki Holidays.
