After living a single life for over half a decade, American professional eater Randy Santel has found the perfect mate to match his ravenous appetite. Randy, who is also a dietitian, is currently in a relationship with a fellow professional eater, Katina Eats Kilos.
Despite being in a relationship for a long, the pair has yet to walk down the aisle, but judging by the wonderful photographs they share on social media, the day could not be too far.
Let’s discover how and when they met one another, and if the FoodChallenges.com creator had a relationship before this.
Randy Met Katina During Alaskan Food Tour
It must be fantastic to have a partner in crime with common interests and passions. In this aspect, the 872-times plus food challenges winner is extremely lucky.
Known to the globe as Katina Eats Kilos, her real name remains hitherto unknown. Even boyfriend Randy doesn’t bother to pronounce her last name, noting in one of his films that it’s a tough French surname.
The two professional eaters first encountered each other on their 10-day Alaska partnership trip back in July 2020. The time they spent together throughout the tour apparently ignited a romantic bond.
As Katina revealed via Instagram, the trip proved to be a turning moment in her love life, as she got to meet, hang out and develop affections for her fellow professional eater contemporaries.
The St Louis-based pro eater and entrepreneur also introduced his girlfriend, Katina to his legions of fans, dedicating an entire video on his popular YouTube channel.
In the video, the YouTuber gushes about Katina, claiming that he too was very much amazed by her competitiveness and dedication to food challenges.
The couple seems eager to take their relationship up a step, as they have also met each other’s parents, family, and friends.
Moreover, the pair celebrated different festivals—Halloween, and Christmas—at each other’s parents’ homes and visited several places in their hometown. Also, in his November 7, 2020, YouTube video, the food lover hinted at further collaborations and their plans to travel around the United States and other countries to compete in different food challenges during the first 6-7 months of 2021.
Well, with all of these plannings ahead of them, one thing is sure Randy and Katina’s fans will be seeing a lot of them in 2021.
Randy Was Previously In A Relationship
Before the ongoing relationship with the Gonzaga University graduate, the Missouri native was in a relationship with another lady. The foodie has not spoken much about it, but it is known that he and his then-girlfriend dated back in 2012.
The only time the pro eater mentioned his ex was on May 17, 2012, during an interview with the River Front Times. Elaborating on his future plans, the entrepreneur shared he had plans to move out west, but he didn’t want to break up with his ex.
While he never shared the reason behind their breakup, the Missourian is currently in a healthy, happy relationship with Katina, touring the country and downing kilos worth of delicacies.
