A short video clip showing two male housemates of the Big Brother UK reality show kissing and cuddling each other has re-emerged online.
The 2016 video has been described as one of the “groundbreaking LGBTQ+ moments on TV” by some commenters.
The two housemates in the video are Ryan Ruckledge and Hughie Maughan who both appeared on the 17th season of the show.
While in the Big Brother house, Ryan and Hughie developed a romantic relationship that appealed to many viewers of the show. They even got engaged on the show, but later revealed it was a prank.
The Big Brother UK reality TV series has had a good share of LGBTQ+ housemates over its 19 seasons’ run.
The 19th season of the show was won by a gay man named Cameron Cole.
