Matt was thrilled to receive a photograph of his mom posing with evicted Big Brother 25 houseguest Reilly Smedley, with whom Matt had gotten very close before she was eliminated in week 2. With Bowie ineligible to play as the outgoing HOH, Matt's fellow competitors were Jag, Felicia, and Cirie Fields.
The Big Brother 25 live feeds have revealed that Matt won the HOH competition, his first of the season. Matt won the Power of Veto but didn't use it, ensuring that America would be headed to the Big Brother 25 jury house. After HOH and Power of Veto winner Jag Bains targeted Blue (and the houseguests evicted her), Bowie Jane won the second HOH and nominated America and Felicia Cannon. Matt won the HOH competition on Thursday night after the double eviction in which Blue Kim and America Lopez were evicted. The Big Brother season 25 week 13 Head of Household (HOH) competition has been played, and its winner is Matt Klotz.
