Less than one month after Turner exited the Big Brother house, he proposed marriage to the woman he constantly thought about while playing the game.

“You and me till the end. *She said yes by the way,” Turner, 23, captioned two photos of the couple on Saturday, October 29, adding a swirling-hearts emoji.
The Massachusetts apparently popped the question in a grassy field in Burlington, VT, and he added to the post, “I love you [Megan].”
The college sweethearts met when they both attended Bridgewater State University, according toUs Weekly.
Congratulatory messages poured in from fellow Big Brother 24 alums — including Indy Santos, who repeated a series of fire and heart emojis in her comment, and Jasmine Davis.
Jasmine wrote to Turner, who had sneakily stolen her muffin mid-season, “Congratulations, Festie Bestie. We LOVE you, Meagan.”
Turner’s best friend in the game, Alyssa Snider, commented, “Congratulations you two!!!!”
Big Brother 24 winner Taylor Hale wrote, “WOOOO CONGRATULATIONS.”
And Taylor’s boyfriend Joseph Abdin, who also played Big Brother this past summer, gushed, “F—K YES BROTHER. I AM JUMPING THROUGH THE ROUGH RN!! MEGAN BELMONTE TURNER!”

Turner, who owns a thrift store and runs the rug boutique with Megan, finished Big Brother’s 24th season in third place after Monte Taylor won the Final Head of Household competition and chose to take Taylor to the end with him.
Earlier this month, Megan joked on Instagram, “Wanna make a final two?”
Turner replied, “I’m down, we should call it something cool, like the pound or something.”
“The Pound” was actually the name of one of Turner’s alliances on the show.
Turner told Us after Big Brother’s finale that he didn’t think America liked his gameplay but he’d love to participate in a future All-Stars season.
“Somehow I ended up going as far as my Big Brother lifespan was meant to be. I have no regrets at the end of the day,” Turner said in September.
“At the end of day, Taylor played an incredibly resilient game. She went up against a war of obstacles every single week. And I think she honestly… deserved the win.”
