BREAKING: Big Brother 27’s Mickey Lee is at the center of a fast‑moving and deeply worrying story today.

This afternoon, Page Six reported that Mickey has died following those cardiac events. Entertainment Buzz is actively verifying this update with official sources.
What we know right now
Mickey Lee, known to Big Brother fans for his season 27 run, was rushed to the hospital after multiple cardiac arrests. Earlier reports placed him in critical condition. Today’s development is a new, serious turn.
USA Today and E! News reported his hospitalization and critical status earlier this week. Page Six now reports that he has died at age 35. At the time of publishing, there has not been a public confirmation from family members, his representatives, or CBS. Our newsroom has reached out to all three. We are awaiting responses.
No official family or network statement has been released yet. Details may change as we confirm new information.
How we got here
Here is the developing timeline our team is tracking:
- Three days ago: Reports stated Mickey suffered multiple cardiac arrests, then was hospitalized in critical condition.
- Two days ago: National outlets reiterated his critical status, with no change in condition made public.
- Today: Page Six reported that Mickey Lee has died at 35 following those cardiac events.
- Now: We are seeking official confirmation from family and CBS, and monitoring for a formal statement.
This is a sensitive, painful moment for the Big Brother community. We will update as soon as we have verified details.
The Big Brother community reacts
The reaction has been swift, heartfelt, and raw. Former houseguests have begun sharing memories of Mickey’s spirit in the house. Many point to his kindness off camera, and his competitive focus when the red light was on. Fans remember his smile, his steady eye contact with the live show audience, and the sense that he always had one more move in his pocket.
The Big Brother fandom is a family, even with all the rivalries and twists. People who watched Mickey week after week now feel like they watched a friend. That feeling is real. You do not spend a whole summer inviting someone into your living room and then forget them. The messages pouring in, from watch party hosts to alumni podcasters, reflect shock, love, and empathy. Hearts are with his loved ones tonight. ❤️
Why this hits so hard
Big Brother is more than a game. It is a mirror for ambition, nerves, and second chances. Mickey’s run on season 27 made a mark. He stood out on live nights and in confessionals. He connected with viewers who love grit and playful chaos. He also drew debate, like all strong players do.
That is why today lands with such force. He was 35. He was part of a show that turns everyday people into icons of summer. It is never easy to see that spotlight dim, especially so suddenly.
What to know about sudden cardiac arrest
Sudden cardiac arrest can strike without warning. It is different from a heart attack. The heart suddenly stops. It can affect younger adults, even those who seem healthy. Quick action can save lives. CPR and an AED can double or triple survival chances when used right away.
Learn hands‑only CPR. Find the nearest AED at your gym, office, or school. Call 911 at the first sign of collapse. Seconds matter.
If you are with someone who collapses, is not breathing, or has no pulse, call 911, start chest compressions, and use an AED if one is available. Keep going until help arrives. Simple steps, learned today, can help tomorrow.
What happens next
We are watching for a formal statement from Mickey’s family and from CBS. The network traditionally honors past houseguests with care. If the report of his passing is confirmed, expect tributes from former castmates, the production team, and the show’s host.
Until then, compassion comes first. Give space to his loved ones. Share memories, not rumors. Hold your favorites a little closer tonight.
Entertainment Buzz will continue to report as we confirm new details. Our newsroom is on this story, and we will update with official word the moment it is released.
