After 74 days in the house, the jury of seven had decided to vote Diana McMillan to win over Valerie Barros in a 4-3 vote. Diana becomes the first female winner of the series.

## Background

### Development

It was officially confirmed on the 21st of September. The second season would begin on the 5th of October through the 24th. The hosts would remain as Mateo and Parker. However, Parker would leave the season halfway through leaving only Mateo.

### Schedule

The season will be hosted on the same schedule like the previous season. However, during the short week, the week will be hosted in one day instead of two. The premiere would only take 2 days instead of the normal 3 days.

### Casting

The cast reveal would take place on September 27th, 2018 with fourteen new houseguests. Along with this would be released their birth dates, occupations and hometowns.

## Twists

* **Opening Nominations:** On Day 2, the houseguests were informed that there would not be a Head of Household, but instead based on their first night in the house, they must choose to nominate two of their fellow houseguests.
* **Veto Ticket:** In Big Brother 1, the veto ticket was given during a veto competition which allowed the holder to automatically play in the next veto competition. However, rules remain the same, the veto ticket will be given to the player who gets second in the Head of Household competition. This twist will be in play for weeks 2 through 5.
* **Diamond Power of Veto:** The Diamond Power of Veto is a secret type of veto that is hidden in a secret room. It allowed the holder to take a nominee off the block and name its replacement. Three clues to the secret room would appear on the screen after the veto competition in Week 6.
