'Ugliest House in America': 5 things you need to know about host Retta



 

Is Retta married?

Retta is currently not married to anyone. She has not even been reported to be dating any person in real. Even if Retta is, she must be very good at hiding it. However, in 2012, she revealed on Twitter that she had a crush on Joe Manganiello. As soon as Manganiello began dating Sofia Vergara in real life, Retta sarcastically revealed on social media that she has ended her fake relationship. 

Back then, US Magazine reported Retta claiming, "It is with a heavy heart that I learn of Joe Manganiello aka my wolfy Twitter boo is seeing one, Ms. Sofia Vergara. As with any (pretend) conscious uncoupling, there is still much love and my Mellow Nello (that was what I called my boo in my head) will always hold a special place in my Twitter heart." 

Furthermore, Retta was also rumored to be dating Rhino Wilson while filming 'Good Girls'. There was talk in the town that Retta dated her on-screen husband in real life as well. Retta is a comedian and has a great sense of humor and is a perfect match for a boyfriend or husband. However, as per the reports, she is still to find the perfect one in her life.



 

"Just when we thought the houses couldn’t get worse, America did not disappoint. In the new season, we’ll get back on the road and give fans more of what they love most about this series – especially ugly and fantastically funny home tours with Retta," reads the official synopsis of the show. Retta will be returning to HGTV's screen with 'Ugliest House in America' Season 3 on January 1. Episodes will air at 8 pm ET on Sunday, January 1 through Thursday, January 5 and at 9 pm ET on Friday, January 6.
