No, it's because you are on an HBO fare. Are the seats behind only available if you pay? I have used HBO once and the front row was not available to me but after boarding had finished, it was left empty.

If you were on a normal booking, with a BCH, you would be able to put yourself in the front row and them somewhere else. I have done this with my sister who is a blue and myself as a GCH.
