‘Big Brother’ Season 18 Stars James Huling, Natalie Negrotti To Celebrate Christmas Apart?

“Big Brother” Season 18 alums James Huling and Natalie Negrotti may be celebrating Christmas apart.

On her Instagram account, Negrotti shared a short video of her loved ones putting up Christmas lights in their home. The 26-year-old also expressed her excitement over the holiday season.

Since she is in New York, Negrotti is far from Huling, who is currently in South Carolina with his family. The latter recently shared an adorable snap of his 4-year-old daughter, Bree, finishing a box of Chic-fil-A nuggets.

Huling and Negrotti first met when they joined the hit CBS reality TV show this year. The self-confessed flirt was immediately drawn to the cheerleader, and their closeness strengthened after they promised to always have each other’s backs no matter what.

However, the couple didn’t only have good days in the house. There was a time when Negrotti was accused of flirting with Paulie Calalifiore and Corey Brooks. At one point, she also got upset with Huling for teaming up with Brooks and Nicole Franzel.

While Huling and Negrotti didn’t win the $500,000 grand prize, they didn't go home completely empty-handed since they also found each other. Following his eviction just a few days before the finale, Huling admitted that he initially didn’t want to be part of any showmances in Season 18. However, when he met Negrotti, he realized that he was invested in their partnership.

“Going in I was like, ‘No showmance.’ I was coming in for business. Then I met Natalie and we connected with a lot in common. The feelings got real and that took over,” he told Big Brother Network.

Negrotti also had some wonderful words for Huling. Following her eviction, she told The Hollywood Reporter that Huling always had her back. “He was protecting me. The fact that he made it that far and was fighting for two people not just himself – he is just a good person,” she said.

“Big Brother” Season 19 will premiere on CBS in June 2017.
