BIG Brother’s Morgan Pope has shared a jaw-dropping update about her relationship with Vince Panaro following the season’s end.
The pair were repeatedly accused by fans and their fellow houseguests of being more than friends, and Vince of “emotionally cheating” on his girlfriend, Kelsey, with Morgan.

Many wondered where the duo stood after last week’s finale and when they returned to their separate lives without the TV cameras.
During an appearance on The Exclusive With Sharon Tharp
podcast on Wednesday, Morgan put questions to rest, revealing that she and Vince haven’t spoken since the show wrapped.
First, the reality star defended her and Vince’s closeness and touchy-feely behavior in the house, which is what raised eyebrows with viewers to begin with.
“I had respect for him. I always made sure there was boundaries,” Morgan said, while mentioning the “pillow fort” they created to separate themselves in the bed they shared.
However, Morgan also admitted that she and Vince hadn’t spoken since the Big Brother finale, in which Vince came in second to Ashley Hollis, and Morgan took third place.
“Right after-on the stage, I just told him, ‘I’m always gonna have your back. If you want to talk,’ you know, ‘you know how to find me,’ basically,” Morgan recalled of their final chat.
She then confirmed that Vince hasn’t reached out, but she wishes him the best.
“I really hope that he’s doing okay,” the TV star said while also acknowledging the “overwhelming” backlash they’ve received over their flirtatious behavior on the show.
Morgan also noted that Vince is likely trying to retreat from the limelight and return to his more “introverted” lifestyle.
TROUBLE IN PARADISE
Vince’s conclusion on the show was an emotional one for the California native, who discovered his longtime girlfriend, Kelsey, had dumped him over his questionable bond with Morgan, when she was
a no-show in his family’s video message.
Shortly after departing from the BB house, The U.S. Sun exclusively captured video of Vince having a tense reunion with Kelsey, while an insider confirmed they are “no longer dating.”
It wasn’t until one of the final few episodes that Vince questioned whether he’d crossed a line with his relationship with Morgan and had hurt Kelsey, since he had no communication with anyone outside the house for months.
“I am getting a little worried, perception-wise, like, am I too affectionate with Morgan?” Vince wondered after Kelsey didn’t partake in the aforementioned video message.
“Imagine I don’t win any money, Kelsey dumps me… and then what do I have? Leave single and have no money?” he told the cameras.
KELSEY’S OUT
In September, a source exclusively revealed to The U.S. Sun that Kelsey was “done” with Vince after witnessing his flirty exchanges with Morgan onscreen.
Her decision came after Vince and Morgan were caught being very affectionate, including Vince
kissing Morgan’s arm, them lying in bed together late at night, and showering side-by-side.Even their co-stars have noticed an obvious bond between Vince and Morgan, with some predicting they’d end up together beyond BB.
However, based on Morgan’s revelation that they’ve had no contact since the show, their future together remains uncertainRead More on The US Sun
