Big Brother Exit Interview: Mallory Aurichio
Week 7 of Big Brother 28 wrapped up with the eviction of Mallory Aurichio, who became the latest houseguest sent packing after the Mosh Pit alliance disintegrated almost as quickly as it came together.
Following her departure, media outlets caught up with Mallory in the press pool to discuss her decision to trust the Mosh Pit despite her instincts and who she feels most betrayed by. Here are the highlights from her exit interview.
On Trusting the Mosh Pit & Betrayal
Reflecting on why she bought into the Moshpit alliance—and specifically trusting D despite having reservations—Mallory admitted to relying on logic rather than her gut.
"I didn't fully trust the Mosh Pit, but I trusted it this week because I had been getting a lot of reassurance from Barrett, and I didn't think it made logical sense to form an alliance and blow it up not even a week later. So I had kind of been relying on logic, which I should have just trusted my gut."
When asked who hurt her standing the most across the entire season, Mallory didn't hesitate: "I feel the most betrayed by Drew, like in regards to this whole season. And if I won [HOH], I'd put up all three icons."
Under-the-Radar Alliances
Despite being left out of the main majority alliance for the first four weeks, Mallory clarified that she was quietly operating alongside key houseguests even if they didn't put a official title on it.
"Me, Taylor, and Yosh had never formed like an official alliance, but we had kind of talked about how we should work together... Once the pit was formed, I felt like it would have been a mistake to be in a solidified alliance with everybody in the house, but yeah, I did feel like me, Yosh, and Taylor were working together."
Looking ahead to who should take home the grand prize, Mallory is firmly in her ally's corner: "I'm rooting for Melody."
