Reality TV Crossover: Big Brother Champ Morgan Willett Confirms Romance with Bachelor Nation’s Jonathon Johnson

Los Angeles, March 15, 2026 — In an exciting blend of Big Brother and Bachelor Nation worlds, Morgan Willett has officially gone public with her new relationship with Jonathon Johnson, delighting fans across both franchises.

The 31-year-old Willett, who famously won CBS’s groundbreaking all-digital season Big Brother: Over the Top back in 2016, shared the big reveal on Instagram Sunday with a romantic photo carousel. “Worth the wait 🥹❤️,” she captioned the post. “Feeling like the luckiest gal & happy to call this guy mine.”

The pair, both repped by Little Red Management, reportedly met through their shared manager. They’ve been subtly teasing the romance lately, including cozy snaps from a recent Wyoming ski getaway.

On March 11, Willett posted on her Story about finally bringing a partner into her inner circle: “As someone who has spent years being the third wheel to my sis and her bf (whom I love so much), to finally add someone to the gang and end our trip with pizza, board games and good convo… 🥹🥹🥹.”

The very next day, after flying back to Southern California, she gushed about their spontaneous vibe: “Hopped off the plane and got asked, ‘Wanna go to the gym, then jump into the ocean?’ I fear I’ve found my ideal kind of crazy.”

Johnson, 29, first captured hearts as a standout on Jenn Tran’s 2024 season of The Bachelorette. He returned for season 10 of Bachelor in Paradise last summer but stayed single—until now. This marks his first confirmed romance since exiting the ABC franchise.

Willett has kept busy post-Big Brother with stints on Ex on the Beach and several seasons of MTV’s The Challenge, where she was previously in a high-profile relationship with co-star Johnny “Bananas” Devenanzio from 2019 to 2021.

Social media buzz has been building since the hints dropped, with fans from both reality universes celebrating the unexpected pairing. The couple’s shared love for adventure, laid-back energy, and reality TV experience seems to be clicking perfectly.

No further details have been shared yet, but the announcement has fans eagerly watching for what’s next in this fresh crossover love story.
