In the coming weeks, a new winner will be crowned and will bring home $500,000. But Josh Martinez and Christmas Abbott may no longer be working with each other by then. After all, the relationship of the two houseguests is starting to become complicated due to Paul Abrahamian.

Last week, Josh finally realized that Paul has been playing all of them. He has been asking them to do his dirty work for him, and he always gets out of situations without blood in his hands. When Josh told Christmas about his observation, the crossfit trainer shut him down.

But a couple of weeks ago during Josh’s Head of Household (HOH) reign, Paul asked him to put two houseguests up for eviction and he happily obliged. Christmas reminded Josh at that time that it was his HOH, and he should do what he wants and not what Paul asks him to do. But after a couple more days in the house, Christmas has proven her loyalty to Paul.

Recently, Josh once again noticed that Paul is protecting Alex Ow too much. He finds this very “shady” because Paul protecting Alex could only mean that he plans on taking her to the final two. This would leave Josh and Christmas out of the competition. But when he shares his thoughts to Christmas, she once again stops him from being paranoid.

But Josh’s observations are correct. Even though he cannot see exactly what’s being shown on television, several people have already expressed their dislike for Paul. “Big Brother” Season 8 winner EvelDick thinks Paul “poisoned the cast.” Host Julie Chen acknowledged the fact that Paul has been manipulating the other houseguests.

Former houseguests Cody Nickson and Jessica Graf also knew that Paul could instantly win by tricking the other houseguests into following him. Unfortunately for the showmance, they were booted off the competition a few weeks back. Even Paul made it clear that he doesn’t want to go home with only $50,000 but with $500,000.

“Big Brother” Season 19 will return to CBS on Thursday at 9 p.m. EDT.
