‘Big Brother’: Are Vince Panaro & His Girlfriend Still Together? Where They Stand Before Finale Night
After 83 days of gameplay, Vince Panaro is finally stepping out of the Big Brother house. The only question is, will his longtime girlfriend, Kelsey, be there to greet him?
During Season 27 of Big Brother, 34-year-old houseguest Vince entered the house gushing about his girlfriend of over seven years. However, fans quickly took note of Vince’s close connection with his fellow houseguest, Morgan Pope, dubbing their cozy relationship the season’s “cheatmance.” After all, as Zingbot put it, “What do you call someone who lights up when Vince enters the room, gives him long, passionate hugs, and warm, affectionate cuddles?”
As the two dominated the latter half of the game, winning the majority of HOH and Power of Veto competitions, viewers watched the live streams as Vince and Morgan shared the HOH bed every night, using the privacy to seemingly talk in code about life outside of the house — all while Vince still believes he has a girlfriend back home.
Now that this whirlwind of a season has come to an end, viewers can’t help but ask: Are Vince and his girlfriend Kelsey still together? And if they’re not, does Vince know he’s single? Scroll to find out everything we know about Vince and Kelsey’s relationship status, including whether she will be at the finale or not.

Are Vince and Kelsey still together?
At this time, Vince and Kelsey have not officially split. That being said, Vince’s close connection with Morgan, as well as Kelsey’s notable absence from Vince’s friends and family message from home, has led viewers to believe that Vince should prepare for an awkward conversation, to say the least. During his time in the house, Kelsey has managed Vince’s social media account. However, fans noticed on September 4 that Kelsey had unfollowed Vince and removed herself as a follower on his account.
On September 24, the final five houseguests received a message from their loved ones, cheering them on as they prepared for the final week of the competition. While other houseguests’ significant others appeared in the videos from home, Vince was quick to notice that Kelsey did not join his parents to send well wishes his way. He told viewers, “It was great seeing my parents, but I was kind of surprised it wasn’t from Kelsey. I am getting a little worried.” He even added, “Am I single right now? Did Kelsey dump me?”

Are Vince and Morgan together?
At this time, Vince and Morgan are not officially dating. While other houseguests, such as Ashley Hollis and Mickey Lee, have theorized that they will start to date outside of the house, Morgan and Vince have only discussed their relationship status in code.
During a conversation that viewers believe was Morgan and Vince discussing the likelihood of dating outside of the house, Morgan told him, “I guess I’m not allowing myself to have a percentage because I feel like that would be something that obviously can’t be fully dove into, if that makes sense? But that doesn’t mean that the percentage would be nonexistent.”
Will Kelsey be at the Big Brother finale?
Now that Vince has made it into the Final 3, he will not be stepping out of the Big Brother house until he is the final houseguest evicted, becomes the season’s runner-up, or wins the $750,000 during the live finale. While it is tradition for Big Brother finalists’ family and friends to be in the audience on finale night, fans have speculated that Kelsey will not be in attendance. Check out our deep dive into the reasons why Kelsey may or may not attend the Big Brother finale for our final verdict.
