America tried a long-distance relationship with Cory after Big Brother 25, but eventually moved in with him in Nashville and even considered next steps, as she told Us Weekly in July 2024. "We talked about it a lot, and I was very open in the house about the fact that I never wanted to get married," she said. "With Cory, I catch myself thinking, 'If I did get married, this is the kind of ring I would want.' But we just moved in together. Cory's still not out of college."
