When Cory Wurtenberger and America Lopez met on Big Brother 25 last summer, few could have guessed their blossoming showmance would lead to rumors of expanding their family just over a year later.
The couple, who moved in together earlier this year in Nashville, have been open about their future aspirations — though they’ve been careful not to commit to any specific timelines. In a recent lighthearted exchange on Instagram, fans began speculating that the duo might be planning for their first child.
“We’ve joked about baby names,” America, 28, admitted in a recent interview. “It’s one of those fun conversations couples have, but for now, it’s all hypothetical. Cory still has to finish school, and we’re just enjoying life as it is.”
Cory, 22, added, “We’re in no rush, but it’s exciting to imagine what the future might hold.”
Still, fans couldn’t help but notice the couple’s increasing focus on family-oriented content in their social media posts. From photos with their nieces and nephews to cozy evenings spent watching family-centered reality shows, followers are convinced it’s more than just casual chatter.
“We’ve talked about kids — someday,” America clarified. “But right now, we’re focusing on building our careers and figuring out how to adult. It’s a big step just to live together, and we want to do it right.”
Despite their denials, the speculation hasn’t stopped. Observant fans recently noticed a shopping bag in one of Cory’s Instagram stories that appeared to be from a baby boutique. Cory dismissed it as a “gift for a friend,” but the internet remains unconvinced.
For now, it seems the Big Brother alums are content with taking things one step at a time. Still, their fans are eager for any updates — whether it’s a proposal, a wedding, or, perhaps, baby #1.
Until then, America and Cory remain focused on their shared love of TJ Maxx runs, binge-watching reality TV, and making the most of their time together as a young couple.
As America teased, “If there’s any big news, we’ll let you know. But for now, we’re just figuring it all out like everyone else.”
Could a Big Brother baby be on the horizon? Time will tell, but one thing’s for sure: Cory and America know how to keep their fans guessing.
