Rupertâs strategy to win will be based on a partnership he hopes to find in the house.
âIâm also going to find a ride or die at the beginning who is more intelligent than I am because I am not the smartest guy in the world. Iâll rely on them to do the mental challenges and they can count on me to do the physical challenges,â Rupert said .

âIt has people from all different walks of life. You have to get along with everyone and Iâm ready to bring that to the house,â he said in his bio.
