Andersen, a film producer, expressed his admiration for Victoria both on and off-camera, while Victoria emphasized their love for simple things like cooking, dancing, and laughing together.
Despite their newfound public romance, Victoria and Andersen are not sure if their relationship will be featured on television, as Victoria’s show focuses on the raw and real aspects of house flipping in Chicago.
