‘Big Brother’s Vince Panaro Reveals New Update About Girlfriend After Season 27 Finale (Exclusive)

Exclusive Interview

While Big Brother Season 27 has come to an end, fans are still eagerly awaiting one reunion between a houseguest and his longtime partner.

Following his second-place victory during the September 28 finale, we caught up with Big Brother houseguest Vince Panaro to ask him about his relationship status with his girlfriend of seven years, Kelsey. During the finale, fans quickly noticed that Kelsey was not present in the live audience, despite both of Vince’s parents being there. While both Ashley Hollis and Morgan Pope had only their parents in attendance, neither had a pre-game significant other.

As part of our late-night interview after the finale, Vince confirmed that his longtime girlfriend, Kelsey, was not in the audience. This news comes after Kelsey’s notable absence from Vince’s video from home during the Final 5, following speculation that his strong friendship with fellow houseguest Morgan Pope was more than platonic. As their relationship was referred to as the “cheatmance” by Big Brother fans, even Zingbot had something to say about their situation.

When asked if Kelsey was there to congratulate Vince on his second-place win, he confirmed, “No, my parents were.” He added, “I don’t think there were enough tickets for people to have, you know, a bunch of people there.” Nonchalantly, he continued, “I’ll probably see her tonight, maybe, or whenever I’m done with all of this.”

This statement comes just days after Vince told Big Brother viewers that he was “a little worried” about his relationship, questioning, “Am I single right now? Did Kelsey dump me?” After watching a heartfelt message from his parents and seeing houseguests in relationships receive messages from both their family and significant others, Vince stated, “Perception-wise, am I too affectionate with Morgan? We like to spend time together, and yeah, we sleep in the same bed, but it’s a giant bed and her head is at the opposite of me. Have I crossed boundaries that I’m not aware of, that I didn’t think I did, but maybe I did?”
