*Monday’s live “Celebrity Big Brother“ saw Keshia Knight Pulliam make a very convincing case for herself to get sent home.
The former “Cosby Show” star was nominated for eviction alongside Omarosa Manigault, and she made a tearful plea to her fellow housemates to vote her out of the house because of how badly she missed her 1-year-old daughter, Ella, and how she needed to return home to nurse her, per ET Online.
“I was ready to stay and fight but my breast milk supply has kind of been getting a little less. They asked me honestly and I was like, ‘You know, to tell you the truth, since you guys put me up on the block anyway, it’s time for me to go home,” Pulliam told ET’s Brice Sander hours after the live eviction. “It’s time for me to make sure that Ella’s OK, ’cause she is my priority.”

Pulliam’s emotional plea was honored, as every one of her housemates unanimously heeded her request, which she said made her feel “so grateful and so appreciative.”
Pulliam says the first thing she’s going to do when she reunites with her baby is “give her the biggest hug and kiss imaginable.”
“I just can’t wait to hold her in my arms all night and she can have as many booby snacks as long and as often as she desires,” Pulliam said, laughing.
Before she packed her suitcase and departed the BB house, Pulliam revealed to James Maslow that Shannon Elizabeth — whom Maslow has formed a strong alliance with — was trying to get him kicked out.
“I made that statement because Shannon is really wreaking havoc in the house,” Pulliam explained to ET.
“She is telling so many lies to so many different people. And I get it’s Big Brother, but I feel like you also have to be accountable for what you do and I had nothing to lose… I had no advantage to giving him that information. So I hope that he heeds the warning because he’s kind of teamed up with her and he has no clue what’s in [store] for him.”
In the end, Pulliam said she had no regrets about her time on the show, explaining, “I’m really proud of myself for getting in there. I’m very proud of myself for maintaining my integrity.”
“I wanted to be impeccable with my word, I wanted to always do my best. I did not want to make assumptions and I wanted to not take anything personally,” she said, explaining her dedication to spiritual philosopher Don Miguel Ruiz’s The Four Agreements.
“I really felt that I stuck with that and didn’t allow the chaos and the changing dynamics and all of the personalities and the paranoia to take me from my center. I trusted my intuition.”
“Celebrity Big Brother” airs Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
