Among the many "showmances" that blossomed on The Challenge season 39, Michele Fitzgerald and Callum Izzard's relationship caught the attention of several fans. Currently, The Challenge stars Michele and Callum are no longer together. According to Reality Titbit, Michele and Callum broke up sometime in December 2022, after just a few months of dating.
The rumor that Callum allegedly had a girlfriend back home while romancing with Michele on the show proved to be a bone of contention between the two The Challenge stars. According to Cheatsheet, Michelle said on her Instagram page back in November 2023, that she was "absolutely sick" about the incident, expressing her anger about it.
Afterwards, The Challenge star Michele stated that she was unaware of Callum's romantic status at the time of their showmance, and she apparently felt stupid for not having known better.
There's no sign that Michele and Callum are still together at the moment. Although episode 7 of The Challenge season 39 depicted their romantic relationship at its height, it appears that their romance ended during the show's production, as per reports by Fresherslive.
