The finale of the 26th season of “Big Brother” is here.

How does everything end after 90 days this year? Here’s a recap of the season finale that’s expected to air 9-11 p.m. ET on CBStogether with the winner.

This story will be updated throughout Sunday evening.

What happened during the season finale of Big Brother 26?

The episode began with Chelsie Baham, Makensy Manbeck and Cam Sullivan-Brown in the final three. They then took part in the first part of the “Head of Household” competition.

Makensy was eliminated for the first time after about 25 minutes. Just over 10 minutes later, Cam fell out, resulting in Chelsie taking the win in the first part.

Season 16 winner Derrick Levasseur returned for another cheesy segment, kicking off the second part of the HOH competition between Makensy and Cam.

Makensy emerged victorious and secured her place in the third part against Chelsie.

Makensy spoke to the Diary Room about how she doesn’t know who she would take to the final two if she wins part three. Chelsie also had a similar conversation in the DR and said she wasn’t sure between Makensy and Cam.

The jury roundtable, moderated by Season 24 winner Taylor Hale, aired. Rubina Bernabe joined the jury and revealed how the week unfolded.

The evicted houseguests discussed their thoughts on Makensy and her chances of winning, highlighting her ability to win so many competitions. Quinn Martin expressed his confusion over Makensy sending Leah Peters out of the house.

Afterwards, everyone talked about Chelsie’s game as a strategist. Angela Murray said she could have had better judge management, but T’kor Clottey said Chelsie’s gameplay carried more weight for her than Makensy’s resume as a competitive beast.

The judges talked about Cam and how he was great on social media but performed very poorly in competitions, which is a blemish on his resume.

This section will be updated throughout the night.
