Rob, Amber confirmed as Amazing Race contestants, and CBS will air their wedding.
As we reported earlier this week, and as the Internets have been buzzing about since late last year, Amber Brkich and Rob Mariano are officially a team on The Amazing Race 7. Executive producer and series creator Bertram van Munster says “They’re a very strong team, very competitive,” and says “You see them as a team rather than as singles competing.” Co-creator Elise Doganieri noted that being on the show is “something that strengthens a team or tears them apart,” and adds of Rob and Amber, “I’m sure they had intimate discussions we didn’t hear, but they’re a strong team. They work well together.” Meanwhile, Survivor executive producer Mark Burnett said that he’s “working on their wedding” and, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, “He indicated it will air on CBS, the ‘Survivor’ network, possibly as a May sweeps special or as a short-run summer series.”
