It was so close, yet so far for Todd Clements and his journey on Big Brother Canada Season 12. While he went into the house not knowing what to expect, the 32-year-old general contractor managed to pick up three Power of Veto wins and make it all the way to the Final 4. We caught up with Todd to chat about his time in the house, what he’s looking for in his winner, and of course that romantic connection with Donna…

Congratulations on making it to Final 4. You’ve described yourself this season as someone unfamiliar with Big Brother Canada, so how does it feel to have come this far?

It honestly feels still a little surreal. I didn’t expect it to make it to where I made it to, or where I finished. My goal was not to be that first person voted out, then it was to make it to Jury, and then it was the Final 4. Unfortunately, I couldn’t make it to my next goal which was Final 2, but I’ll take it considering I thought I wasn’t gonna make it very far at all.

Will you be watching the older seasons of Big Brother Canada when Season 12 is over?

Yeah, Big Brother definitely gained another fan. I’ll be watching previous seasons and from here on, for sure. I learned to respect the game because playing it is something I’m sure is a lot different than watching it. Being able to comprehend the mental and physical struggles and just testing your limits is something I’m gonna tune into, because I’ve got a whole other outlook on it than what I thought it was gonna be.

You’ll be serving as a member of the Jury, so what are you looking for in your winner this season?

Someone who literally ground out the whole season, from beginning to end. Someone who stayed true to themselves, never changed and never burned everyone that were to come out. I actually kinda like some of the cutthroat players because it’s Big Brother, right? You’re bound to backstab someone sooner rather than later.

Lexus made the decision to cut you instead of Anthony. Why do you think she made that choice?

She stayed loyal to the people with whom she began the game, which is a decision I definitely respect. If I had to do the same thing with, for example, Bayleigh or Donna, I would’ve made the same decision and voted that other person out.

But with respect to winning the game overall, voting for Anthony would have definitely helped her in the end with the Jury’s votes, I believe.

With the Final 3 being determined, who would you predict now has the best shot of going all the way?

With Bayleigh’s endurance and stamina capabilities and her trivia game, I would say Bayleigh is an overall player; she’s well-rounded. But next after her, I would say Anthony, then Lexus.

Donna may have left the house early on, but you two shared a kiss before she left. Is that a connection you’re hoping to explore on the outside?

It’s definitely something that … I would see what direction and the way it goes … I’m stumbling over my words; that’s an indication there! I guess it’s something that I’ll have to see once I get out of here, because it’s something that passed the time for both of us while we were in the house. But if something happens, it happens when we both see each other, and if it doesn’t, it doesn’t. I got to meet a beautiful person on the inside and out. We’re lifelong friends if not, and that’s something I’m grateful for, regardless of what happens.

Reflecting on your time in the house, is there anything major you’d change about your game?

No, because I’m grateful to make it as far as I did. I don’t think there’s really anything I would change. Say if I were to do another season at some point in my life, I would just have to change my strategy moving on. But looking back, I honestly don’t think there’s really much I would’ve changed.

What were some of your favorite moments from your time inside the BBCAN12 house?

Just the whole experience, because there have been so many highlights inside that house. Just everything, because it blew my expectations [out of the water]. I learned to respect the game a lot more; the relationships I formed are relationships and memories that are gonna last a lifetime. That’s something I’ll be forever thankful for.

Big Brother Canada Season 12 concludes Wednesday, May 8 at 9:30pm ET on Global.

Everything To Know About Rachel Leviss’ New Man Matthew Dunn

After taking time to be single post-Scandoval, Rachel Leviss is dating again. When Rachel officially chose not to return for Vanderpump Rules Season 11, she also ghosted Tom Sandoval. Her former affair partner very publicly moved on with model Victoria Lee Robinson. Meanwhile, Rachel hasn’t been linked to anyone since the affair.

Over a year after Scandoval, however, Rachel was spotted with Matthew Dunn. After speculation based on social media activity, Rachel’s team confirmed the dating rumors. Here’s everything we know so far about the new man in Rachel’s life.

How did Rachel and Matthew Dunn start dating?

A source told Entertainment Tonight that Rachel and Matthew have been seeing each other for about a month. They reportedly met through mutual friends. So far, it seems very casual. Rachel’s publicist Juliette Harris confirmed to ET that the two are getting to know each other. However, she emphasized it’s still too early for any labels.

Rachel first gave a glimpse of Matthew on April 15th, when she posted a video of them riding in an ATV on Instagram. She captioned the video, “more of this, please.” The comments section was filled with questions about the man sitting next to her. However, the video has since been deleted from Rachel’s grid.

Also on April 15th, Matthew posted a group photo that included Rachel. He thanked two friends for “making the connections”, although it’s unclear if these were the friends who introduced him to Rachel. In the caption, he wrote, “We rode over the mountains and through the woods but grandma’s house could not be found. However, we did rally the side by sides and swam at a waterfall!” At the time, Rachel commented, “what an incredible experience.” Matthew replied “So much fun,” punctuated with a kissing face emoji.

What has Rachel said about Matthew?

The 29-year-old acknowledged the developments in her love life on the May 2nd episode of her podcast, Rachel Goes Rogue. While she didn’t mention Matthew by name, Rachel said, “We are friends, you know, getting to know each other”. Vanderpump Rules viewers will remember that Sandoval also started as Rachel’s friend. Although Ariana Madix dismissed the pair’s friendship as “bullsh*t”.

His social media pages are now private

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Matthew quickly made his Instagram and Facebook social media pages private once his connection to Rachel was revealed. Before he did so, people noted that his Facebook profile picture was a shot of him and Rachel. That might count as a hard launch!

What does Matthew Dunn do for a living?

Rachel’s last two relationships were with a DJ and a bar owner/cover band singer. But her new beau works in a very different industry.

ET’s sources described Matthew as an “investment CEO”. According to his LinkedIn profile, Matthew is currently the CEO of Dunn Investment Group, a think tank in Spokane Valley, Washington. In May 2022, Matthew was featured on the Instagram page happinessandwellnesspromo. In the caption, he was described as a “seven-figure business owner.”

Before that, he was President of Alliance, a Spokane area car dealership. While at Alliance, Matthew frequently appeared on the dealership’s social media pages. He and the salespeople made several silly videos on TikTok.

According to Matthew’s LinkedIn, he also served as a Sergeant in the United States Marine Corps from 2010-14.

Matthew is a single dad

Matthew has a young daughter from a previous relationship. After the fuss over his Facebook profile picture with Rachel, Matthew switched to a picture of him and his daughter.

What did Rachel say about dating before Matthew came into the picture?

In an early episode of her podcast, Rachel said she was taking a year off from dating. Back in January, she explained, “I’m just focusing on myself and…focusing on my emotions that come up for me. Like what are my own needs that I need met? And not adding an additional person into the equation.” In other episodes, she discussed working through a love addiction as part of her treatment at The Meadows.

At this point, it has been about a year since Rachel ghosted Sandoval. Plus, both Ariana and Sandoval already moved on to new romantic relationships. It only seems fair that Rachel moves on as well.

However, she isn’t detached from her ex entirely. Rachel is suing both Sandoval and Ariana for revenge porn. Just recently, she slammed Sandoval’s response to the lawsuit on her podcast.
