Former athlete Jacob Payne has been married to American reality show star Natalie Nunn since 2012. The couple started dating in 2011 and tied the knot in a televised wedding ceremony a year later.
Natalie Nunn rose to fame in 2004 when she appeared on the reality show Bridezillas, which ran for 13 seasons. She then gained further recognition on season 4 of Bad Girls Club in 2010, although she was kicked off after 11 episodes due to a physical altercation with co-stars.
Nunn also appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in 2018, where she was the first housemate to be evicted. In 2011, Jacob Payne, who was a former college soccer player, began dating Natalie Nunn.
The couple appeared together on-screen on Bridezillas and later on season four of Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars 2. Jacob proposed to Natalie in April 2012 and they got married just a month later in a ceremony that was televised on WE TV’s Bridezillas.
Despite a reported brawl between relatives on their wedding day, the couple celebrated their union in Malibu.
Natalie Nunn and Jacob Payne share one daughter, Journey Ruth Payne, who was born in April 2017. The couple had initially announced a new baby in 2014 but sadly experienced a miscarriage.
Journey is credited as the CEO and founder of a kids’ hair firm and has amassed an impressive following on Instagram. Since their marriage, Jacob Payne has shifted his focus from playing in the Arena League team Arizona Rattlers to playing soccer abroad in countries like Brazil.
