Henri Castelli Removed From BBB26 After Two Seizures During Marathon Leader Trial

Overview

• Castelli first convulsed about nine to ten hours into the resistance challenge, received on‑site care, and was taken to a Curicica hospital where initial exams showed no abnormalities.
• After briefly returning to the house, he suffered a second convulsive episode and was hospitalized for observation, prompting Tadeu Schmidt to announce his exit on air by medical recommendation.
• TV Globo’s official note detailed the sequence of care and confirmed that the actor will not continue in the program.
• The Prova do Líder concluded after roughly 26 to 27 hours, with Alberto Cowboy becoming the season’s first leader when Jonas Sulzbach withdrew.
• Following the withdrawal, Schmidt said the vacant spot will be filled from the Quarto Branco, and Castelli later thanked supporters with a brief message on the show’s Instagram.
