The floor is all yours, Rob Rausch's dad! The internet has discovered that Rob isn't the only smoking hot member of his family, following his triumphant season four win on "The Traitors." During his appearance on "Watch What Happens Live" on March 4th alongside his costar Maura Higgins, who he ultimately betrayed to claim the $220,800 prize, it was revealed that his 60-year-old father, Robert Rausch, is also a real-life heartthrob.
Host Andy Cohen asked, "Rob, that's your father?" as a photo of Robert flashed onscreen, showing off his six-pack abs and salt-and-pepper hair after completing a triathlon. "Would it be weird if Maura went on a date with your dad?" Cohen inquired.
The 27-year-old contestant squirmed slightly in his seat before replying affirmatively and jokingly mouthing to Maura, 35, "Don't do that." While several audience members would love to spend a night in the turret with the senior Rausch, a majority of viewers who voted in a poll said that Rob is still their favorite heartthrob.
The "Love Island USA" alum knows that his attractiveness may have helped him gain trust from his fellow players. As he told E! News in January, "There was a lot of joking going on about my good looks." But he added, "I really didn't take it that seriously."
Plus, Rob is now off the market after going official with his girlfriend over two months ago. "Wow, the moment you become America's heartthrob, you lock it down," Andy told Rob during "The Traitors" reunion episode. He quipped back, "Just my luck."
Despite Maura telling Rob at the finale that he was "never going to have a girlfriend" if she ever saw his behavior on "The Traitors," the Alabama native recently confirmed that his lady didn't mind his lying and backstabbing when she watched the Peacock show. "She feels bad for me," Maura told "Today" of Rob's girlfriend during a March 3 appearance. "I like her. A lot."
