Who are 'American Ninja Warrior' couples? Ninjas overcame obstacles to find their true soulmates
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Couples meeting on reality television is not a new phenomenon, but the ties appear to be deeper on 'American Ninja Warrior'.
James 'The Beast' McGrath and Allyssa Beird
James 'The Beast' McGrath and Allyssa Beird first met while competing in the program and training together.
Six years later, James proposed after successfully completing the qualifying course despite an injury. The moment was both heartfelt and encouraging.
Chris DiGangi and Jesse 'Flex' Labreck
Chris DiGangi and Jesse 'Flex' Labreck's love began as a result of the performance and has evolved in front of the audience's eyes over the years.
The two are affectionate and supportive of one another, but they are also fiercely competitive. The two are so evenly matched that they frequently fall at the same obstacle, finish the Wall simultaneously, and sprint step for step when racing head to head.
David Wright and Caitlyn Bergstrom
Another 'Ninja' love story surfaced in 2023 when the program announced that David Wright, or 'The Cake Ninja', and Caitlyn Bergstrom, one of the competing Bergstrom siblings, got married in September 2022 after first meeting at the Las Vegas Finals in 2019.
Caleb Bergstrom and Ashley Bergstrom
Caleb, Caitlyn's brother, is also married to Ashley, another Ninja competitor, and the four of them make training and competition a family affair. These couples are lovely illustrations of the bonds that may form when individuals who enjoy fitness and competitiveness come together from all walks of life. The competition draws people together.
