It’s only Day 10 in the Big Brother 28 house, but Lyric Medeiros and Rome Seymour already seem like they’ve known each other for weeks. From strangers on Day 1 to a budding romance just days later, these two have quickly caught everyone’s attention.
Lyric, a 25-year-old luau performer and surprise attorney from Hawaii, and Rome, a 28-year-old pickleball coach from Florida, wasted no time showing their interest in one another. By Day 2, their connection was clear, prompting Lyric to reflect, “Who cares about the game if you find your future partner and build a life with them? That’s winning in a whole new way.”
Big Brother host Julie Chen Moonves isn’t just watching from the sidelines-she’s embracing her role as matchmaker this season. Beyond Lyric and Rome’s romance, Julie is also rooting for a possible connection between Kamu Kirk and Haley Thogmartin, noting some early chemistry between the MMA fighter and telemedicine executive.
Whether or not a romance develops for Kamu and Haley, Lyric and Rome’s relationship continues to deepen, and Julie will be there to cheer them on-maybe even planning the flowers and cake along the way. It looks like love might just be one of the biggest game-changers in this season of Big Brother.
