Rachel Reilly
Age: 34
Instagram: @rachelereillyvillegas
Hometown: Van Nuys, California
Current occupations: Student, PT tech, yoga teacher, entrepreneur, casting, mom, entertainment, and blogger.

Three words to describe you: Loyal, fierce/competitive, and courageous.

Favorite hobbies: Hiking, camping, and art.

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of?
My education, becoming a mom, and winning Big Brother!

What scares you most about traveling?
Missing my daughter.

What excites you most about traveling?
This is my third Race and my first two I did with Brendon, my husband. It was really fun to race with him but this Race is really exciting because I get to do this with my sister. Growing up, Elissa and I moved a lot. I think I went to three middle schools and two high schools. Moving and only having your sister as a constant made us super close, then we went to college, got married, and didn't live together anymore. We still love to do everything together. Elissa was on Big Brother after I was, we got engaged the same weekend, we got married the same year, and we had babies together! So for us, doing the Race together is a dream come true! SISTER BONDING!

What country and place would you most like to visit and why?
Africa Safari again. It’s amazing, I mean who gets to do that? But excited for everywhere.

What do you hope to accomplish by running the Race with your partner (other than winning one million bucks)?
Bonding time and building memories. Time with my sister is so valuable since we are both so busy with life. This is an opportunity to make some memories as sisters! We didn't get to do BB together so this will be really fun and exciting! We get to make memories, go on a crazy adventure and try to make better lives for our families.

Who do you think will be your biggest competition: Racers, Houseguests, or Castaways?
I think the biggest threats are the Racers. The Race teams know what to expect and even though I have raced twice, my partner has never raced so this will be totally new to her. It's probably good to have a new set of eyes on something I feel so confident about, but I also hope that she listens to me because after all, I've done this twice before and NEVER BEEN ELIMINATED. This also adds pressure on both of us, but I mean I'm Rachel Reilly, I've won two reality shows. I’ve got this in the bag ;)

Do you think Big Brother prepared you for The Amazing Race? Do you think you learned anything on BB that will help you on the Race?
I think being on The Amazing Race prepared me more for this than Big Brother. The Amazing Race isn't usually as strategic with the other Racers, but I think since we have Racers, Houseguests, and Castaways we are going to really see more of a social game being played. I am totally prepared to make alliances on this race and use my race experience and my BB experience.

What is the accomplishment you are most proud of?
My children and graduating college Summa Cum Laude, Presidential Scholar. Also, proud of working on my Masters and the Drop Method® App is HUGE. Obviously being on Big Brother and The Amazing Race are once in a lifetime opportunities.

What scares you most about traveling?
Diseases and flying. Also safety of food, activities, and travel.

What excites you most about traveling?
Seeing the world—especially with my sister, meeting new people and cultures, realizing the infinite possibilities of our world.

What country and place would you most like to visit and why?
Africa—to see all the animals.

What do you hope to accomplish by running the Race with your partner (other than winning one million bucks)?
I hope to overcome my fear of flying!

Who do you think will be your biggest competition: Racers, Houseguests, or Castaways?
Definitely the Racers.

Do you think Big Brother prepared you for The Amazing Race? Do you think you learned anything on BB that will help you on the Race?
I think we learned that the Big Brother casts are groups of pathological liars and never under any circumstances to trust any of them. Actually, literally, so don’t trust Big Brother Houseguests ever, ever, except me. You can trust me with your health in particular.
