Brianâs announcement that Prince Lorenzo was the sixth housemate to leave the Cebrity Big Brother House came as a surprise to no one. Despite his controversial remark on the opening night that he would miss not having servants, this royal has never shown airs or graces. From the moment he was first put up for eviction in the second week he was convinced his days were numbered and tonight he has discussed his departure tonight as if it were a foregone conclusion. This frank acceptance before the event is probably what contributed to the other housemates' fairly slack attempts at comforting him after the news. Martin went ahead and guffawed. Not gold, Martin. The Prince himself was on fine wisecracking form. After heâd hugged everyone he was surprised to find that there was still time left before the 30 second countdown "Maybe theyâre bringing in a band for me, something special?â he speculated before wondering whether Brian Dowling was going in the other direction and arming the audience with fruit and veg to pelt at him. He would never do that, Princey!
As time dragged on, the Prince asked, "So do I have to say goodbye to you guys all over again?" while the other housemates seemed to move on mentally focusing their attention on their anxiety about the next of tonightâs two eviction.
Bless Lorenzo, even in his last minute, the spotlight isnât quite his own.
