‘Big Brother’ star Brooklyn Rivera blames ‘malicious’ Quinn Martin for her eviction, calls out Tucker’s gameplay

Brooklyn Rivera went from queen of the house to the house’s latest victim on “Big Brother 26.”

The 34-year-old business administrator’s game collapsed when Quinn Martin ratted out their five-person Pentagon alliance, resulting in Cedric Hodges’ shocking blindside.

Then, Tucker Des Lauriers won Head of Household and successfully got Rivera evicted by a near-unanimous vote.

In an exclusive interview with The Post, Rivera said that she blames Martin, 25, the most for her elimination.

“We had a great thing going,” she said. “We were the core of a collective group. We were going to be safe. We could see final eight and final five, and it was going to be pretty. And we had a great plan. And he just couldn’t believe it.”

“He couldn’t believe that he could trust just us,” Rivera continued. “He had to put his hands in all kind of places, and rightfully so. It’s ‘Big Brother.’ ”

Despite Martin’s betayal, Rivera said she doesn’t have any hard feelings towards the nurse recruiter.

“I respect his game a lot more because he’s doing it ‘Big Brother’ style: malicious, sneaky, devious, conspiring away,” she explained.

On the other hand, Rivera doesn’t respect the way Des Lauriers, 30, has been playing the game.

“Tucker’s only game plan is just winning competitions and blowing up everybody else’s stuff and being mad that we’re all doing the same thing he’s doing,” she said. “Which, hey, it’s working for him, and the fans seem to love it.”

Des Lauriers’ competition dominance and blunt behavior has made him the fan-favorite of the season so far, but Rivera thinks he’s focused more on making good TV than winning the game.

“He is all about that. He’s not a fan of the show. Had never watched the show really before this,” she said. “Maybe because I am a fan and I came in as a super fan, I value the fans a little more. And the game. I respect the game.”

The mom of four went on, “Tucker had a hard couple weeks in the house where he was not happy to be there and vocally said it a lot. And so once he started doing that, I was like, ‘You were just too risky to work with.’ And it bit me in the butt.”

“I I do love him as a person,” Rivera added. “I just want someone that this game means something to win.”

Rivera also thinks Des Lauriers is hypocritical for calling her out for being in alliances, when he’s doing the same thing.

“He’s just mad that Chelsie [Baham] and I didn’t have him as our first choice, that we had other people,” she said. “Because if he was our first choice, it would have been fine to have all these other ones. But he was just a sad little kid on the playground that didn’t get picked first. And so he was mad and threw stones.”

“I mean, it worked. I’m here,” Rivera noted. “So Bravo. Great gameplay. Love him as a person. Really hope he leaves, though. Very soon.”

“Big Brother” airs Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays on CBS.
