'I will be spoiling them': Big Brother winner Marley Biyendolo says he now plans to SHARE the $250,000 prize money with two ex-housemates
He initially said he had no plans to split the $250,000 prize money if he was crowned the winner of Big Brother.
But on Wednesday, Marley Biyendolo backtracked on his statement - and revealed he now hopes to 'spoil' fellow finalists Sarah Jane Adams and Christina Podolyan after beating them to the top spot during the season's grand finale.
Speaking to 7News, the Melbourne-based basketballer and disability worker, 27, said he would 'love to do anything' for the two ladies, but hasn't agreed on anything official as of yet.

'Nothing has been agreed beforehand or anything, but I'd love to help them,' he said.
Marley added that he will be 'spoiling them one way or another at some point down the track'.
'They’re just as deserving of winning Big Brother as I am, and I want to make sure they feel spoiled,' he said.

It comes after Sarah Jane, 66, admitted before the finale that she would give some of her winnings to Marley and another mystery contestant should she win.
But following her selfless revelation, Marley told Daily Mail Australia there had been 'no discussion' among the remaining housemates about splitting the mammoth sum.
'No, it was never a discussion with me,' said Marley. 'I'm not sure I have heard about it being a discussion with anyone else in the house.
'I don't think there was a discussion that was had, that anyone ever wanted to split the money with someone else.'
Kind-hearted: Marley says the prize money will help him take care of his father Clotaire (left), after his mother Victoria's death from cancer
Marley primarily plans to use the prize money to help take care of his father Clotaire, after his mother Victoria's death from cancer.
In the same interview with Daily Mail Australia, he said: 'This amount of money, through everything that we've been through, especially of late. Our lives... dad's life has now changed. It's gone up.
'It's been a tough four or five years, especially since mum left. And I know that now his life's turned around and I've been able to do that for him. So I'm so proud of that.'
