Big Brother: The Aftermath of Austin & Liz's Showmance

Showmances have been a part of Big Brother since the beginning. One of the most memorable couples from the show was Austin Matelson and Liz Nolan from season 17, which aired in the summer of 2015. Liz, a 23-year-old marketing coordinator from Miami, Florida, and Austin, a 30-year-old professional wrestler from Woodland Hills, California, captured the hearts of fans. Even after leaving the show, people are curious about what happened to them in the real world.

Liz and Austin hit it off right away when they entered the Big Brother 17 house. However, their relationship started off as just friends, especially since Liz was playing the game with her twin, Julia. The twins took turns being in the house, which sometimes confused Austin and affected their connection. Despite starting as friends, Austin developed strong feelings for Liz. Although they won't be returning for Big Brother season 26, fans still wonder about the status of their relationship.

After spending a lot of time with Austin, Liz eventually developed feelings for him and they decided to officially become a couple. Unfortunately, Austin was evicted on day 89, finishing in fifth place and becoming a jury member. On the other hand, Liz made it to the final two but ended up as the runner-up. After the show, they dated for a few months and even met each other's families. Liz had plans to move from Miami to Los Angeles to be closer to Austin, but their relationship eventually came to an end.

After a public breakup, Liz joined The Challenge: War Of The Worlds alongside her twin sister Julia. Unfortunately, Liz was the first to be eliminated from the competition during the purge. Since then, fans have not seen either of the sisters on The Challenge. However, the show often brings back past contestants, so there's still a chance that the twin sisters from BB17 could make a return to compete on the show.

Even though the couple decided to go their separate ways, they still cared for each other. After the breakup, they remained friends, but it is unclear if they have stayed close friends since then.
