Josh Martinez May or May Not Be Dating Another Cast Member From 'The Challenge 40: Eras'

Reality TV shows that provide the most entertainment have at least two of the following elements: action, comedy, and romance. The best ones manage to cover all three, and that's exactly what The Challenge manages to do. There's action from the physical and mental games, and romance and comedy from the players when they compete. It has become commonplace for cast members to hook up while filming the show, and a few of them stay together after the show. Four couples even got married!

Most of the relationships fizzle out naturally after they leave the show, which makes sense. If they stay together after, that's lovely for them. If not? Keep it moving. The newest season of the series brings together players from different "eras" of the show. The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras brings back the action and a love triangle involving Challenge and Big Brother alum Josh Martinez.

As of right now, there is no confirmation as to whether or not Josh is dating anyone, but there were a lot of whispers even before Battle of the Eras premiered. Josh has not had the best of luck in the romance department on The Challenge. In fact, one of the only rumored hookups he did have involved someone with whom he was later embroiled in controversy during the Lies, Spies, and Allies season of The Challenge. Now, there are rumors that he's in a Battle of the Eras love triangle.

Almost immediately, both Josh and fellow Pink team member Kyland Young had Nia Moore on their radar for potential romance. In Episode 3 of Battle of the Eras, Josh manages to cozy up with Nia first while in the pool of the house the contestants live in. However, by the end of the same evening, Josh hears Nia hooking up with Kyland. While this is happening, Josh can also hear other people making fun of him after Nia dropped him for Kyland. But things may have changed in Josh's favor.

Josh may have been hurt at the time, but there are more rumors now that he may have won over Nia in the end. First, while on the Challenge Mania podcast, Nia was asked point-blank about Josh and Kyland. While she played it coy, she shared that she felt Josh was a much better kisser than Kyland. Reddit detectives also discovered two videos showing that Josh and Nia were on vacation together with two other players from Battle of the Eras. Time will tell whether or not the trip was a couples' trip or not.
