‘I underestimated the program. I didn’t think it would be so complicated’, says Buda about BBB 24

It’s been 35 days since the end of Big Brother Brasil 24 and only now is Lucas Henrique, the Buddha, able to evaluate the experience of having participated in the reality show. “I underestimated the program. I went through so many difficulties in life that I thought it wouldn’t be that difficult. But it was. It was very complicated,” he explains. “BBB is an experience that moves emotions and now I see that you need to be very well prepared.”

The Physical Education teacher does not regret anything he did during confinement. The R$35,000 in prizes such as a smart TV, a washing machine, R$10,000 in household appliances, R$10,000 in products and R$15,000 in cash are welcome in a new phase of his life. “Lucas after BBB is a black man who has his insecurities, his fears and recognizes them all. A man who little by little tries to make his dreams come true and never intends to give up on them.”

Still called “Calabreso” on the streets, Lucas also spoke about the end of his marriage to Camila Moura. He said he has been undergoing therapy to “get his thoughts straight” and to be able to make the right choices. “There are days that are easier, others that are more difficult, but we try to carry on as much as possible to be able to live. No one is just a mistake, no one carries a ball in their foot all their life”, says the former BBB who moved out of the apartment where he lived with his ex-wife.

Buddha also ruled out the possibility of a fresh start: “No. That’s not the case. As I already said, this is a matter of my personal life and I don’t feel comfortable exposing it even though I know that the public followed the whole story”, he acknowledges. “What I want is to move on with my life. I have no intention of having a relationship with anyone right now because I’m putting my head in place to focus on work”, he concludes.
