Aaryn Williams is talking about Big Brother again, this time on Bravo. In a clip for the new series Small Town Trouble: Texas, she and her husband, Nick, revisit the racist and homophobic remarks she made in the house in 2013, when she competed as Aaryn Gries.
What she said
“It is my biggest regret in my life,” she says, Us Weekly reports. In that account, Nick calls the behavior a terrible mistake. Williams tells him it was not merely a mistake, and that the comments reflected who she was at the time. Us Weekly also reports that it took her a long time to see how deeply ingrained the prejudice was. EntertainmentNow reports that she described how many people the comments hurt.
Big Brother 15
Us Weekly reports racist remarks about fellow houseguest Helen Kim, a homophobic slur directed at Andy Herren, the loss of a modeling contract, and boos when she left the house.
Bravo posted the clip on November 6. Small Town Trouble: Texas, set in Boerne, Texas, premieres November 18, 2026, at 9 p.m. ET/PT, then streams the next day on Peacock. More from the franchise is on our Big Brother hub.
