Big Brother 23 winner Xavier Prather just revealed a bit of shocking news in his latest social media post.
For a while now, Xavier has been pretty quiet online, with only a few retweets popping up on his Twitter account.
And now there seems to be a pretty good reason for his absence, as Xavier states that he has been dealing with some pretty serious injuries.
Someone who follows Xavier on Twitter sent him a note to ask if he is going to be competing in a new season of The Challenge: All-Stars at CBS.
Based on his response, it doesn’t sound like he is going to be competing at anything for a while.
Xavier Prather from BB23 posts about his injuries
According to Xavier himself, he is suffering from a torn Achilles, a fractured ankle, and a broken wrist. He didn’t elaborate on what caused those injuries, but it sounds like he will have a story to share pretty soon.
“Right now I’m competing to get out of bed unscathed,” Xavier wrote to his social media follower, obviously trying to find some humor in the situation that he is dealing with.
Hopefully, Xavier has some good news in the near future about his recovery process, and that he is able to compete again on some of the reality competition shows that he enjoys.
For fans who want to go back and watch him playing Big Brother 23 or The Challenge: All-Stars Season 1, all episodes from those seasons are available for streaming on Paramount+.
World of Big Brother news
A new season of Big Brother debuts this summer, with the first episode arriving around the end of June or early July of 2023. The producers had indicated that they are looking for new people to play, but some online rumors suggest returners.
One former houseguest even suggested an all-winners season of Big Brother is coming soon, which obviously got people buzzing on social media. That would be something to behold if the producers really got all the former winners back again.
And recently, Julie Chen Moonves appeared to tease a Celebrity Big Brother return, even though she did not elaborate. That could certainly be fun if new episodes aired in Spring 2023.
And for any Big Brother fans who enjoyed watching the first season of The Traitors, there is some good news on the horizon from Peacock. The network just announced that The Traitors Season 2 is coming soon.
Big Brother 25 airs in Summer 2023 on CBS.
