Many former Big Brother stars started families after leaving the CBS show. Jessica Graf and Cody Nickson, who sparked a showmance in season 19, announced in September 2018 that they were expecting their first child together. (Nickson welcomed his daughter Paisley with a previous partner in 2012.) Graf gave birth to their first daughter, Maverick, in March 2019. The couple have since welcomed four more daughters together: Carter in October 2020, Atlas in July 2022, Gemma in December 2023 and Italia in October 2025.
