They were split in two different houses, White house (House 1) and Color house (House 2). 9 women entered the color house and 9 men entered the white house. Rubén and Chari were ex, she entered the white house and Rubén entered the color house. All housemates had to get know each other by blind dates and after that chose their favourites or less favourites. On Day 5, women from color house chose their 4 favorite men from white house. Men from white house chose their 4 less favourite women from color house. Chari and Rubén's secret were discovered so they had to change house. On Day 47, the house was unified. On Day 82, five ex-housemates, Chari, Mireia, Oscar, Ruben, and Yago, returned to the Color House after an online public vote; a second round of online public voting on Day 89 decided for Ruben and Yago to officially return to the Gran Hermano house as official housemates; the other three housemates were re-evicted.

Anup Naraim is a male housemate from Bombay, India. He was the first Indian in Big Brother Spain. He entered on Day 1 into the white house. He loves to clean the house. He was considered by his peers as a traitor, as he was in one group to another to avoid being nominated. He has had disputes with Julia, Jhota, Terry, and Laura.
