So, are Lyric, 25, and Rome, 28, in a full-blown relationship at this point? Swooon is unpacking all the juiciest bits about Lyric and Rome’s romance so far in Big Brother Season 28. Given how hot and heavy things have gotten after just four days, we’re in for a wild ride with these two.
Are Big Brother 28’s Lyric and Rome in a relationship?
Season 28’s first showmance has gotten serious very quickly. Lyric and Rome haven’t explicitly defined their relationship yet, nor have they disclosed their feelings for each other to the rest of the houseguests.
When they were in bed together, Rome asked Lyric, “Do you think we would actually work in the outside world?” Lyric responded, “I think it’s Day 4 in here, but yeah.” Even though $750,000 is on the line, Rome and Lyric already seem preoccupied with each other and plans for their relationship outside the house.
Outside of Big Brother, Rome is a pickleball coach living in Traverse City, Michigan. Lyric is an attorney based in Hawaii.
What’s happened so far between Lyric and Rome on the Big Brother live feeds?
Where do we even begin with Lyric and Rome? During a private chat on the live feeds, Rome and Lyric were heavily flirting with each other. Lyric even called Rome a “hottie,” and he gushed that she was “so cute.” He did bring up how she was following him around everywhere, and she said she would stop.

When Rome mentioned that Haley Thogmartin had been trying to flirt with him all day, Lyric acted like she didn’t care. “Oh, go for it,” she told Rome, who was not pleased with that response. Before walking away, Rome did give Lyric a kiss on the cheek.
