Kam Williams is a returning veteran on MTV's The Challenge: Double Agents. While fans might remember her past tension with on-again-off-again boyfriend Leroy Garrett, the pair came back this season as a couple with their own secret alliance.
Born Malkamitu "Kam" Williams on November 3, 1994, the Pennsauken, NJ, native made her reality TV debut while competing on Are You the One? season 5. She went on to become a familiar face on MTV, via appearances on a number of The Challenge spin-offs, including Vendettas, War of the Worlds, Champs vs. Stars, and Final Reckoning. Fans of the franchise are familiar with her in-house feuds with Leroy, a fellow veteran, and Real World: Las Vegas alum. While neither of them has ever won The Challenge, they have entertained their housemates with their onscreen lovers' quarrels. Cameras captured the early stages of their developing romance, in addition to their various breakups and reconciliations. After the new season of The Challenge: Double Agents premiered, fans watched as the competitors returned, more confident about their relationship and their chances in the tough competition.
Just ahead of the show's premiere, The Challenge duo took to Instagram on November 20. They revealed their plans to move to Texas together. “It’s official, we’re moving to Houston! We just signed our lease to move into our new place in 2 weeks,” the former flight attendant captioned a photo of the pair sporting matching Houston Rockets jerseys. “I’m so excited to start this journey with you, especially since it’s something new for the both of us.” She continued. “I didn’t know my life would’ve changed like this when I met you 4 years ago & I’m happy that it did . to us and our new life. (By the way … Lee took complete creative control with our matching outfits today because he said I take control with everything else I think he did pretty good, it’s cute).” See the photo below:
This will be the first time the couple has lived together after celebrating their one-year anniversary in August. Leroy also took to his Leroy Garrett Instagram page to share another pic and a similar message with his fans. "Babe we did it It’s official we’re moving to Houston It’s so crazy, I’ve never pictured myself moving out of the city Las Vegas, where I’ve lived for the last 9yrs,” the Michigan native wrote in the post’s caption. “But I guess when you find love, anything is possible.” The MTV star added, “You’ve been one of my greatest blessing in my life. That’s why I’m beyond ready to start a new life with you. to our journey #BlackLove .”
For their part, both Kam and Leroy have gotten close to winning. Kam actually made it to the finals in her rookie season on Vendettas. However, in later seasons, her tension with Leroy appeared to affect her performance in the competition. With them returning as a happy The Challege: Double Agents couple, it's possible Kam and Leroy will finally make it to the end and bring a cash prize back to Texas.
