Rome Seymour says he’s fine with his former showmance partner, Lyric Medeiros, cozying up to new Head of Household Kamu Kirk after his eviction from Big Brother 28. The pickleball coach frames the interaction as strategy, not betrayal, and says he left the house expecting players to adapt fast.
Why Seymour shrugs off Lyric’s on-camera flirting
Seymour told reporters he advised Medeiros to lean into a softer, sympathetic persona to win over the other side of the house. He sees her recent interactions with Kirk as part of that plan.

- He believes Lyric’s charm is a deliberate tactic to secure alliances.
- He trusts that she understands their relationship remains intact.
- He says the flirtation is nothing personal — it’s game play.
Seymour emphasized he isn’t jealous and fully backs her decision to play aggressively. He praised her instincts and described her as smart and good at using likability to her advantage.
What Rome told Lyric before leaving the game
Before eviction, Seymour said he told Medeiros to do what she needed to survive in the house, even if that meant gaining favor with the opposing alliance. He gave her permission to prioritize game survival.
- He encouraged her to be present with the other group.
- He warned that shifting alliances might lead to his own eviction.
- He said he would not hold it against her for voting with others.
He framed his advice as a strategic sacrifice for Lyric’s longevity in the competition.
The vote that surprised him — and Taylor’s lone support
Seymour admitted the final tally caught him off guard. When the vote read heavily against him, he briefly wondered if Lyric had ignored his counsel and still voted to evict.
Then Seymour learned the single vote to keep him came from Taylor Brown. He expressed appreciation for Taylor’s loyalty and noted she’d been one of his earliest supporters in the house.
- Rome called Taylor consistently reliable and committed.
- He said he had reciprocated by defending her when she faced nomination.
The surprise wasn’t betrayal, the tone suggested, but the sheer scale of the vote.
Keeping tabs from the outside: live feeds and house tensions
Even after exit, Seymour has followed the live feeds closely. He referenced a recent altercation between Jason De Puy and Kamu Kirk and compared it to his own tough nomination night.
He praised Jason’s handling of the fight and said he wished he could still be in the house to offer visible support to allies. From his perspective, many current conflicts echo battles he already faced.
Key takeaways on relationships and strategy in Big Brother 28
- Romantic signals aren’t always emotional: Players use attraction tactics to secure votes.
- Alliances shift quickly: A single eviction can rearrange loyalties.
- Support matters: Public backing, like Taylor’s, can carry emotional weight off-camera.
