Known for her loud personality, obsession with Eric Littmann, and her bond with James Rhine, Ivette was a member of The Friendship Alliance, the rivals of the popular Sovereign Six Alliance. Her secret partner in the house was Beau Beasley. She and Beau were the last partners left in the game and Ivette went on to reach the Final 2 along with her ally Maggie Ausburn. However, her loyalty to her alliance as well as her loud and snarky personality cost her the win in a close 4-3 vote.
Ivette was later one of the candidates eligible to be voted into Big Brother 7 (US). Ivette, however, did not make it back into the game.
Ivette was previously married, but went through a divorce in 2020.[2]
Ivette was set to compete on Big Brother 22 but was dropped shortly before the cast entered sequester.[3]
