Reflecting on his relationships within the house, Potts highlighted the bonds he formed, especially with Nikita and Colson, stating, “I’ve never really been one of the lads, but when I got really close with Nikita and Colson, I was like, ‘not me being one of the lads.’ I love it, I’m so versatile these days.”

In a heartfelt speech during the final dinner, Potts thanked his fellow housemates for accepting him for who he is and emphasized the transformative power of trust and openness he experienced in the house.
The finale was not just a celebration of Potts’s victory but also a testament to the enduring appeal of Celebrity Big Brother. The show, which has captivated audiences with its mix of drama, laughter, and unexpected friendships, once again proved its place as a staple of reality television.
