Meanwhile, Laila revealed they might have an edge on this task because Laila was already living the “Honest life.” The boxer and Matt decided to split up their duties into two objectives: shopping and graphics. While Laila was having doubts about Matt’s agendas, Boy George wanted to bend the rules and bonded with Brooke about what household chores they did or did not do.
