Rebecca Meyer, the latest contestant voted off NBC’s The Biggest Loser, lost over 100 pounds on the program, but gained something even more significant:
The love of fellow contestant Daniel Wright!
On The Jay Leno Show Tuesday, Rebecca revealed that the two are dating, and that she started falling for him when she first appeared on the hit show.
“Daniel was my best friend, and leaving the show we talked for like five, six-hour conversations and then, you know, he told me he had feelings,” she said.
They certainly look like a cute couple …
What sparked the connection between Rebecca Meyer and Daniel Wright?
“Daniel and I have gone through the same thing,” she said. “I mean, he’s gone through an even more intense version of it, and I fell in love with my best friend.”
We wish these big losers the very best. Seriously, they lost a ton of weight on the program, and it’s nice to see that with their renewed self-esteem came love.
The show has a history of playing matchmaker, as some fans may know. Now married, Matt and Suzy Hoover met as competitors on The Biggest Loser in 2005.
