This might be the craziest showmance story in BB history. Swaggy and Bayleigh were on season 20 together but Swaggy was evicted on day 23. However, he then spent the rest of the summer getting to know her family and then he proposed to Bayleigh live on the season finale. They got married in 2019 and now have two children together.
