The Amazing Race cast members Izzy Gleicher and Paige Seber made history during the Season 38 finale, becoming the highest-ranking openly lesbian couple to compete in the American version of the Race. However, just before the finale aired, the couple hit an even bigger milestone off-camera.

On December 3, 2025, Izzy and Paige announced that they had gotten married that morning during an intimate courthouse ceremony. Following their wedding and subsequent Amazing Race departure after Leg 11, the Season 38 stars sat down with Swooon, sparing no detail about their proposal, wedding day, honeymoon plans, and more. Team Pizzy stans, this is one relationship rewind you do not want to miss! Scroll to read our full convo with the Amazing Race newlyweds below!

Ironically, your Amazing Race journey ended in Paris. How did you feel getting sent home in the City of Love?

Izzy Gleicher: [Beep] Paris. [Laughs.]

Paige Seber: I actually was booked to head to Paris about 48 hours after the Race concluded for work. So it was actually pretty funny to us to, like, end our race in Paris and fly home knowing that two days later I’d be flying back to stay for a couple of weeks.

Izzy: Yeah, like, it didn’t feel super romantic, you know what I mean? Like, the squashed dreams of our future, and you know, our future cat babies and all squashed in Paris. Maybe it was a little screw you to be eliminated in the City of Love, actually, and then, especially when she had to go back and then work a grueling three weeks in the city where our hopes were squashed… We exist in irony.

Congratulations on your wedding! What can you tell us about that special day?

Izzy: Well, we’re not, we’re not great planners. And we got engaged right after I got back from Big Brother, and life just started happening, you know? And we were like, “We’re gonna give ourselves a year to set a date.” And then it was like, a year later, we’re preparing for the Race, and then the Race is airing, and we just sort of kept putting off getting married. We knew we were going to elope, or some version of that. We wanted to keep it just for us and just private. I mean, our lives are now fairly public, and so it felt like we just wanted that moment for us, and we were sick of waiting.

Frankly, we knew that Leg 11 was going to be a very difficult leg to watch for so many reasons, and we just wanted to turn the narrative around of that day, and of that date, for us. And so we did. We did literally get married last Wednesday morning before Leg 11 aired. We went to the Bronx courthouse, and the Bronx are where my grandparents got married. And so it felt a little sentimental. But, yeah, we just wanted to, I don’t know, just do it with us, and just make the day about our happy future, and not about how devastating we were gonna be in like 10 hours.

Paige: Yeah, so we gave ourselves a little gift and got to start calling each other, “My wife.”

Do you have any plans for a larger ceremony or reception in the future?

Izzy: You know, there’s gonna be a Pizzy Party at some point, but let’s not be holding our breath.

Paige: Like we said, we’re not great planners, but there are dreams.

Looking back, who proposed to whom?

Paige: I did!

Izzy: But that’s because, like I said in the episode, I’m an all-in-person. Paige knew I was pretty all in long before she had proposed. And so yeah, the joke was that if there was going to be a formal proposal or something like that, it was for sure gonna come from Paige.

Paige: I don’t remember the exact conversation, but pretty early in our relationship, there was some version of Izzy being like, “Well, you know, if you were ready, I would do it right now.” And so she kind of told me, I think less than a year in, she was like, “Paige, the ball is in your court.”

And then, when did you know each other was The One? Was it around that ball in your court time, or was there another specific moment?

Paige: I hope this comes off as very romantic because we’ve actually talked about the fact that neither of us believes in there being one person that the universe meant for you to find, and that actually, it’s way cooler that we just wake up every day and choose each other. It wasn’t just because the universe told us we had to be together. Every morning, it’s because I wake up and I want to be next to this person.

Izzy: I don’t know if that idea of The One popped up at any point. But I mean, we talk about this all the time, if there is a version of love at first sight or love at first meeting, on our first date, I had never met someone and felt just so safe and seen and easy, you know? [I feel like] listing those qualities sort of diminishes the feeling of it. I can’t really describe it, but it was just like, “Yeah, I got to be around this person.” And so for me, I just knew I wanted to be with her in some capacity, like immediately.

Paige: Actually, the day we celebrate as our anniversary is just the day we met. [It wasn’t] the moment that we said, “Do you want to call me your girlfriend?” That was just a random day, a week or so later.

Izzy: That’s a cute story, though. We had been dating for several months. Well, like a month or so, maybe a little bit more. We travel a lot for work, and this was the first one where she was like,  “Do you want to come visit me?” And I was like, “Yeah, I’m gonna come up for the weekend.” And blah, blah, blah. It was the night before you were leaving for the trip. And we were snuggling and being all like, “Oh, I’m gonna miss you.” And she said, “When you come visit me…” and she was all shy about it. “When you come visit me, can I tell everyone that my girlfriend is coming to meet me?” It was all like [wink, wink, nudge, nudge], and I was just like, “YES.”

Do you have any honeymoon plans? Are you a little traveled-out? Back to Paris, maybe?

Izzy: Never going to Paris ever again, sorry. [Laughs.] Well, we have this, I don’t know if this is manifested into like a honeymoon proper, but we do have this dream of, in the nearish future, since — and I’ll say it with a grumpy face, since we never left Europe — that we want to do our whole Race course again, but vacation style. Take a week or two, and just actually hang out at that bar in Croatia that was on the water that I just wanted to hang out at, and walk around Prague for real, and not jump off a building. We would like to do that sort of intersection of honeymoon and Race.

Paige: We also were bringing back an old COVID tradition of ours, which is to do a road trip between Christmas and New Year’s to visit a bunch of my family in the South and a bunch of our friends along the drive down. So we’ll celebrate that way. I don’t know if it’s a honeymoon, but it’s at least a little wedding tour that we’re gonna do very soon.
