Breaking: Big Brother 25's Cory Wurtenberger Reveals Shocking Update on America Lopez Romance!

Big Brother 25's Cory Wurtenberger expresses confidence in his relationship with showmance partner America Lopez outside of the reality show. Despite his elimination from the series, Cory remains optimistic about their future together. He describes America as incredible and believes their connection will withstand the transition from the game to real life.

Cory agreed that Big Brother unites people as they rely on each other for support. However, he also noted that the aftermath of the show can be a chaotic and intense period, especially for showmances. Cory described leaving the Big Brother house as a challenging ordeal, with the added pressure of social media and prolonged attention before fading into obscurity. He believes that experiencing this journey together with the support of America will be beneficial for both him and his partner.

Cory and America, both 27, engaged in weeks of flirtation and cuddling before finally experiencing their first kiss last month. Throughout the initial stages of their romantic involvement, Cory exhibited some hesitancy about progressing further.

Cory Wurtenberger and America Lopez from CBS shared their thoughts on showmances. Cory acknowledged that his hesitation in pursuing a showmance was not a deliberate strategic decision. He revealed that he is someone who is slow to connect intimately with others and takes time to warm up to people. However, he expressed that forming a bond with America came more naturally to him.

Cory and America's time in the house together concluded on Thursday, October 19, when Cory was unanimously evicted. They were nominated together after their former ally, Jag Bains, surprised them by selecting them as replacement nominees. Jag had the advantage of winning two Power of Veto competitions, enabling him to save Blue Kim and Felicia Cannon and target Cory and America instead.

Cirie Fields mentioned in her farewell message to Cory that he should have been more discreet about his showmance, but Cory believes that being part of a strong duo, regardless of romance, is always risky on Big Brother.

“I don't believe that the public display of affection between America and me was the issue, per se,” he expressed. “I attribute it more to the fact that I was under immense scrutiny and being part of a duo further intensified that. … I genuinely believe that I had the potential to advance far in the competition alongside America, but unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. ”

While the Big Brother superfan’s dreams of winning the reality TV competition might be dashed, Cory is satisfied with what he got out of the experience.

“I’m just glad that I was in there long enough to fully explore my relationship with America,” he said.

Big Brother airs on CBS Sundays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
