America Lopez and Cory Wurtenberger — Season 25
Status: Ongoing
Although America and Cory’s dynamic started off as what some Big Brother fans might call a “fauxmance” or a “flirtmance,” their long conversations and cuddling soon transformed into something real. America revealed during a Diary Room confessional that she spent much of the Pressure Cooker competition occupied with Cory.
Many Big Brother fans began to root for the pair, giving them the couple name “AmeriCory.” The duo shared their first kiss in September 2023 and have become a bonafide couple soon after.
America and Cory found themselves on the block next to one another in October 2023, and Cory was ultimately sent to the jury house. Nonetheless, the pair didn’t must wait long to reunite. One week later, America was the second houseguest voted out in the course of the Double Eviction.
After their respective evictions, Cory and America each told Us they’d high hopes for his or her relationship outside of the Big Brother house.
“I’m very optimistic about our future, and if it doesn’t work out, that’s OK,” said Cory. “But she’s incredible and I can’t go into our relationship [outside the game] being like, ‘Oh no, every thing’s going to alter.’ … Like, no, she’s great. I feel it’ll work out.”
America echoed the sentiment one week later. “I do know we’re going to be so solid,” she told Us. “I’m so excited to see what we’re in a position to do outside of here. We made this list throughout the season of various things that we [are] going to do and watch and places we [are] going to go. So, greater than anything, I’m just so ecstatic to see him again and to do all of these items along with him.”
As of July 2024, America and Cory live together in Nashville.
“After two weeks apart, I used to be like, ‘This sucks. Let me move to Nashville,’” America exclusively told Us Weekly. “I moved here January 1 and I got my very own apartment. He lived down the road at his dorm. We did that for like five months after which he moved in after last semester. We’ve been living together for 3 or 4 months.”
