5 Things you need to know about Rachel Reilly:
Rachel’s Craziest Dating Story
“I hope [my husband] never watches this. I was dating in Las Vegas. This guy was rich and very successful in the entertainment world. Throughout our time together, he kept saying, “Let’s go to Hawaii right now. Bring your friends.” It was a regular Tuesday for him. We went for 3 days, it was fun but it obviously didn't work out!”Rachel’s First Big Brother Taping
“I went to an open call at Hard Rock where I met Robin, the head of casting. I literally met her for 3 minutes and didn’t think she would like me. And it was just too many auditions, each one is longer than before. At my fifth audition, I was there for like 2 hours or something. I knew what they were doing, they wanted to see me at my lab, the pool and what I did for work.”What about Brendon, your husband
“When I saw him, I thought he was just a lifeguard. One night we were in the hammock and he said he was getting a PhD in biomedical physics and I totally fell in love. He’s a scientist, he’s nerdy and kind of silly— I just couldn’t handle it.”So what do you think of the show Love is Blind
“Oh my god I love it. See Brendon is attractive so we were flirting and all but that’s not what attracts me. I 100% believe in the Love is Blind theory so when you meet someone who has the same interests as you, same goals and visions, and when you talk to them, they make you laugh.”Rachel’s Dating Tip
