Secret Story 2026: Nominations and alliances shift as contestants face new votes

The French reality‑TV competition Secret Story 2026 announced its weekly nominations on 4 August. Eight contestants remain in the Maison des secrets – Arthur, Océane, Paola, Greta, Maguette, Malo, Kurtis and Robin. Earlier episodes revealed that Arthur and Océane have been a couple for three years, prompting Arthur to propose marriage, while Paola avoided elimination despite a revelation about her external boyfriend. Léonie was the latest contestant to leave the show.

Maguette uncovered Malo’s secret: a video of him dropping his phone by a pool that went viral and was later used in an Amazon advertisement. The nominations for the next prime were disclosed, with Arthur, Malo, Océane, Greta, Kurtis and Paola receiving votes. The following day’s daily recap highlighted rising tensions among the housemates, a “red phone” voting twist, a Halloween‑themed party, and several “buzz” opportunities that allowed contestants to steal money from each other’s prize pots.

These developments set the stage for the upcoming finale scheduled for 20 August.
