Despite postponing their wedding twice due to the pandemic, Big Brother fans are not happy that Nicole Franzel and Victory Arroyo ultimately decided to have their wedding. They are attacking the newlyweds for having a mask-less wedding amid the Covid-19 pandemic while pregnant. Nicole and Victor tied the knot on Tuesday in Florida after having to postpone their wedding twice due to the pandemic. Nicole and Victor announced back in January that they are expecting their first child together.
Victor and Nicole first met while competing inside the Big Brother house during season 18. They later returned to the house during season 20 when Victor surprised Nicole with a proposal. After postponing their big day twice, the couple finally tied the knot if Florida this past Tuesday. Both Nicole and Victor have shared beautiful photos from their old fashion wedding. In attendance for their big day were fellow Big Brother alums Christmas Abbott and Memphis Garrett as well as Josh Martinez.
Nicole is being bashed by Big Brother fans yet again. Fans are attacking the newlyweds for having a mask-less wedding amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Not only is this dangerous for their guests, Nicole is considered to be high-risk since she is pregnant. Some assumed that Victor may be vaccinated since he is a cop. On the other hand, the CDC recommends even vaccinated individuals should still be following all safety protocols such as wearing masks and social distancing. Many were shocked Nicole was willing to potentially expose herself to the virus while pregnant, since there were easily 100+ people in attendance. In the photos shared so far, none of the guests were seen wearing a mask.
The couple shared photos of themselves alongside some fellow Big Brother alum as well as past Amazing Race players. Reddit users claim that the photo helped them see who the "anti-maskers" are. Fans were shocked to see season 18's Paul was not in attendance; however, one user noted that Paul would not travel to Florida right now since he is taking the pandemic quite seriously. It is assumed that many BB alum did not attend the wedding despite originally being invited, whether it was due to the pandemic or Nicole cutting ties with numerous past friendships. It seems as though Nicole has filtered the comments on her Instagram post to now only allow positive comments.
This is not the only hate Nicole has gotten for her wedding. The day after she tied the knot, Big Brother 20 alum Angela "Rockstar" bashed Nicole for having a non-diverse group of bridesmaids; however, season 3's Danielle came to Nicole's defense. Despite posting photos from their big day, neither Nicole nor Victor have addressed the hate they are receiving for having a mask-less wedding.
