Who is Millie Jarrett? Meet Scotland's latest Big Brother star
All of Scotland will be hoping she can avoid an early eviction.
Big Brother 2026 launched on Sunday (September 13) with another group of contestants allowing cameras to film them 24/7 and relay the results to millions of viewers.
First broadcast on Channel 4 in 2000, it was an instant sensation, as millions were glued to the antics of Nasty Nick, Craig Phillips and Anna Nolan.
It returned in 2023 for the first time in five years, moving to ITV from Channel 5.
This year’s series will be 54 days long, making it the longest since its switch to ITV, and there’s a Scottish housemate.
Where does Millie Jarrett come from?
Millie is from Paisley.
What is Millie Jarrett’s job?
Millie is a bartender.
How old is Millie?
Millie is 19-years-old.
What has Millie said about herself?
"I think I'll bring the house character. I feel like people would probably come to me for things because I'm very loyal. But at the same time, I'm very – you'd know if I was in a room.”
She added: “People take one look at me and go, ‘oh my gosh, she’s such a girly girl. She’s so ditsy’. But they’re so, so wrong. I’m very, very creative. I play a lot of musical instruments. I’m really good at painting. As much as I am so loud and obnoxious, I also like a lot of downtime.”
Why did Millie apply to be on Big Brother?
Millie explained: “I had just quit my job at the time, and I just thought to myself at the time, ‘I’m so much better than these jobs’. And I thought I should just get myself out there and just go for that. Why not? I didn’t think I’d get on!”
What is Millie’s Big Brother strategy?
Millie said: “I don’t have much of a strategy, but my kind of strategy is that I want my housemates to like me first. I don’t really care about the outside world because they’re the people we live with, and they’re the people who can put me up for nomination. So, I think my strategy is just to get everyone in the house to like me and be loyal and not talk behind people’s backs because that’s not nice.”
What would Millie spend the Big Brother prize money on?
Millie revealed: “I like to joke and say, ‘oh, I’ll go out, I’ll go on a massive holiday’. But all jokes aside, I would definitely like to maybe start my own business or buy a house. I’ve got a son. So, I would make sure that the money goes to him and make sure he’s got a good start in life.”

Unfortunately for fans of Millie the bookies currently make her the 33/1 outside to win this year’s series of Big Brother.
