In a dramatic team meeting captured in the teaser clip, Armstrong confronted Winter. According to a Yahoo! Entertainment report, he said,?“Ariel, let me make this really simple: I don’t need the drama.”?Armstrong emphasized how hard he has worked for the past 9 days. He further added that he will give it his all even on the 10th day before leaving the show for good by auto-selecting himself. However, the teaser further revealed his declaration was met with resistance from fellow contestant Porsha Williams, who brutally disagreed. She pointed out to Armstrong how this decision would not be fair to his other teammates.

Armstrong, seemingly unyielding, expresses his unwillingness to spend another day in the same habitat with certain individuals, casting a pointed glance toward Winter. The Modern Family actress had previously confronted Armstrong for his stance on transgender athletes. She accused him of shunning those athletes who do not fit into traditional categories. Armstrong’s controversial opinion suggested that transgender athletes should be celebrated, but in their own separate sporting divisions. Recently, Armstrong was again in the news because of a podcast he did with Caitlyn Jenner last month.
