Christine Varner snuggled up with Cody Calafiore throughout Big Brother 16. How did their friendship end up affecting Christine’s marriage?
Back on Big Brother 16, Christine Varner stirred up controversy after snuggling up to fellow houseguest Cody Calafiore. Their fellow houseguests knew Christine had a husband when she was cast to compete on BB16. While she always maintained that her relationship with Cody was strictly platonic, it seemed to cross a line. At the time, Christine’s husband, Tim, appeared in a special segment during a live eviction episode to comment on the dynamic between Cody and his wife, admitting that it made him uncomfortable. Did Christine and Cody’s flirting ruin her marriage?
Over the years, Christine has maintained her Big Brother 16 fame and has been making some headlines in 2020. For instance, Christine launched her very own OnlyFans profile, which has been incredibly successful for her thus far. She has also spoken out against production, revealing various Big Brother behind-the-scenes secrets from her time on the show. It is safe to say that the fans’ reaction to her on Big Brother was largely negative. When she was evicted on day 77, she was met with boos by the live audience. As Big Brother 25 continues to unravel, it’s time to revisit this controversial cast member’s marriage.
Christine And Tim Divorced After Big Brother
It’s unclear exactly what led to Christine and Tim’s divorce, but they are no longer together. The couple remained married after Christine’s time on Big Brother 16, so their eventual divorce could have had nothing to do with her assumed fling with Cody. It is also worth noting that the duo endured several hardships unrelated to Big Brother, including a miscarriage and an undisclosed health scare.

Despite her divorce from Tim and controversial flirtation with Cody on Big Brother, Christine got her happily ever after. She married military veteran and real estate agent Daniel Kominek in April 2021, and the pair appear to have a wonderful life together. The couple welcomed a baby boy, Monty, in April 2023. Christine was open about her difficult and dangerous birth in which she almost lost her life. However, she and her baby are doing well, and she seems to enjoy motherhood.
Christine’s friendship with Cody on BB16 was controversial for several reasons. While many people viewed it as an overstepping of bounds, others understood it as a strategy. With that said, these two players have never fully addressed what went into that strategic move as it pertained to their proximity to the show. For Christine’s part, she seems to have found solace in her complicated time on Big Brother. The hostile reception from fans energized her, and she remains proud of it as it has undoubtedly memorialized her in Big Brother history.
