Finding love on reality TV seems unlikely enough, but when the show doesn't even have a dating premise, it feels almost impossible. CBS's Big Brother, which has been on the air since 2000, has yielded a surprising number of couples — many of whom are still together.
Season 20's Tyler Crispen and Angela Rummans left the season as an item after sharing a kiss and exchanging "I love yous" on screen. Tyler returned to the CBS franchise for the Big Brother: All-Stars spinoff in 2020, and Angela is in the cast of the inaugural season of CBS's The Challenge spinoff, The Challenge: USA.
Naturally, fans of the reality stars are wondering if Big Brother alums Angela and Tyler are still together. Keep reading for everything we know.
Are Angela and Tyler from 'Big Brother' still together?
There was chemistry between these Hilton Head, S.C. natives from the very beginning of their season, but unlike the other two showmances on Season 20 who were more blatant about their attraction, it took Angela and Tyler a couple of weeks for their feelings to develop on screen.
In his final statements to the jury, Season 20 runner-up and America's Favorite Houseguest Tyler confessed that things with Angela, who finished the season in fourth place, had become more than platonic.
The reality contestants continued their relationship after the cameras stopped rolling and Tyler moved in with Angela in Los Angeles before the two made their way back to their hometown of Hilton Head and purchased a house there in 2019, according to Insider. That same year, Angela and Tyler started an ocean-inspired jewelry line called Naut & Chain, which is still going strong in 2023.
The Big Brother alums' relationship appears to be smooth-sailing as well, and wedding bells are even on the horizon. On Jan. 10, 2021, Tyler asked Angela to marry him on the beach in Hilton Head. "Thank you for giving me the best and most perfect day of my life," Angela captioned her Instagram post of the moment when she said yes.
"I love you more than I can say in words, and I cannot wait for the next chapter of our lives," she continued. "For now, let's savor this time and soak in all of the excitement our future holds."
Angela and Tyler called off their engagement in August 2022.
Tyler released a YouTube video not long after they announced the split. In it, he described what exactly were the nails on the relationship's coffin. During the video, he opened up about his mental health and depression.
Apparently, post-breakup is the best he's ever felt. Tyler said that he didn't feel like he could be himself in the relationship. So, they had to end their engagement.
Angela's side of the story was that the relationship already began to breakdown just a few months after they got engaged. When she competed in CBS's The Challenge USA, she was hoping the time apart would help. It didn't.
After the split, she packed her bags for Bali while she tried to heal from it all.
Angela competed on CBS's inaugural season of 'The Challenge: USA.'
The Challenge series got a bit of a shakeup thanks to the folks at CBS, who pit reality titans from the network against each other in a new spinoff called The Challenge: USA. Tyler, who returned to the network's Big Brother: All-Stars in 2020, and told Us Weekly he "regretted not bringing Angela into the game with him," was elated for his (at the time) fiancée.
