Claim To Fame: Who Is Carly Reeves Related To?

When Carly Reeves first stepped onto the Claim To Fame scene, she had three clues. Now, one of them was false but she said that she was related to an Oscar-winning actor. More so, she noted that he was very very famous. Then, the cast went into the house where all of the clues were. Carly immediately panicked as she saw that clues about her relative were prominently displayed. There were some for Jack Nicholson and then there was a scene from Forrest Gump. Could she be related to Tom Hanks? The housemates are thinking that she might be related to Jim Carrey but who is it?

As it turns out, Carly Reeves could not be hidden for long. Her uncle is none other than Oscar-winner Tom Hanks. Not only has Twitter been guessing this but she also has an IMDb profile. There, it confirms that her aunt is Rita Wilson, who has been married to Hanks for decades. Therefore, she is considered his “niece-in-law.” Carly went to UCLA and has dabbled in acting so she is doing her best to deflect.

Now the cast is starting to get onto her. They feel that she is hiding who she is but she will keep deflecting. Carly has noted other actors from Forrest Gump such as Gary Sinise. Yet, the housemates still believe that Carly Reeves is related to Jim Carrey. However, are they looking in the wrong place?

Safe

Right now, Carly Reeves is safe for the week but the cast is still guessing who she is related to. Travis won so he picked Shayne as she is illusive but things could all change as the show goes on. They are all still guessing and they could go back and forth forever. In the end, the winner will get 100K.

Are you shocked that Carly Reeves is Tom Hanks‘ niece? More so, do you think the cast will figure it out sooner rather than later or will she keep deflecting? Let us know and watch Claim To Fame Mondays on ABC and streaming on Hulu the next day.

Update: Carly had a huge meltdown when she was sent home!
