It's party time in the Big Brother house

THE Big Brother Africa All Stars house is getting ready for its first engagement party this weekend.

Lani Lombard, communications manager at M-Net, confirmed they were organising the engagement party for Mwisho Mwampamba and Meryl Shikwambane on Saturday.

The couple, aptly named "Merylisho", got engaged on Tuesday. The affair has blossomed over weeks.

Said Lombard: "The latest news is that Meryl has settled for an engagement and doesn't feel that it would be right to have a wedding in the house."

It is not known if the couple knew each other before the BBA All Stars season started on July 18. They were in different seasons of Big Brother Africa, but the housemates of different seasons tend to get acquainted.

When asked if this was not a publicity stunt, Lombard said: "The housemates are very much aware of the fact that they are playing a game, and we'll only find out when they leave the house."

Meanwhile, barnmate Lerato seems subdued and withdrawn since she was manhandled by Ugandan Hannington. He has since been ejected.
