The love lives and relationship statuses of celebrities are always the subject of speculation and unconfirmed reports — and one long-time reality star is at the center of talk surrounding his romantic life. Rumors are Naked and Afraid star Steven Lee Hall Jr. is possibly married.
Steven, who has been a consistent fixture on reality TV for several years, courtesy of his multiple appearances throughout the Naked and Afraid franchise, now has fans questioning whether or not he’s officially off the market.
Is Steven Hall Jr. married?
Back in 2023, online reports started to surface that Steven was possibly married to a woman named Jennifer Negron, with whom he had been in a relationship for several years before reportedly getting married.
The couple is said to have exchanged vows back in 2016 at Cadillac Ranch, which is a public art installation and sculpture in his Texas hometown. However, due to the couple refraining from posting photos together, little is known about their relationship or if they are actually married.
What is Steven’s journey on ‘Naked and Afraid'?
Steven’s journey on the popular reality series began in 2013, and he has since gone on to appear in over 30 episodes of the series and its subsequent spinoffs, including Naked and Afraid: XL, Naked and Afraid: Last One Standing and Naked and Afraid: Castaways.
He recently returned to the franchise in March 2025, appearing in an episode for the currently airing season 18. Dubbed “The King of the Forest,” the expert survivalist competed alongside two first-time participants, according to TV Regular.
What is ‘Naked and Afraid’ about?
The premise of the series begins with documenting the lives of two survivalists who meet for the first time naked and are then tasked with surviving in the wilderness for 21 days.
The pair are allowed to bring one item that could be useful to them as they have to build shelter, and find water and food. Each episode chronicles the journey of a different twosome out in the wilderness. The participants are completely on their own, as the camera crew nor production are allowed to interfere unless extremely necessary.
Is there prize money involved?
Despite the dangerous and extreme situations participants are in, the ultimate goal is not hundreds of thousands in prize money like other survival shows — instead the ultimate goal of Naked and Afraid is skill, completing the challenges and going the distance.
In 2022, contestants Alyssa Ballestero and Stacey Lee Osorio told PEOPLE that participants are generally provided a few thousand dollars but stressed that financial compensation will always be secondary to the experience of surviving the wilderness.
