Jessica Graf<\/strong> is not the same person you met on Big Brother<\/i><\/span><\/a> and The Amazing Race<\/i><\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cEight years. That\u2019s how long it\u2019s been since I filmed Big Brother<\/i>. And every time I post something faith-related or dress a certain way, someone finds their way to my comments to remind me that I wasn\u2019t always like this,\u201d Jessica, 35, wrote via Instagram<\/span><\/a> on Tuesday, April 21. \u201cYou\u2019re right. I wasn\u2019t. And honestly? Thank God.\u201d<\/p>\n

When Jessica appeared on Big Brother<\/i> season 19 in 2017, she was 26 years old, single and \u201cfiguring out who I was, what I believed, what kind of life I actually wanted.\u201d<\/p>\n

Now, she\u2019s married to former costar Cody Nickson<\/strong>, raising five daughters and expressing how proud she is of her faith.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tThe countdown to Easter Sunday is on, and many in Hollywood are celebrating their faith out loud. Whether through social media and podcasts or TV shows and films, several celebrities aren\u2019t afraid to share a glimpse into their spiritual journey with fans. For some religious leaders, it\u2019s a decision that should be met with love [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re the same person you were 8 years ago, that\u2019s the thing that should concern us,\u201d she said. \u201cGrowth isn\u2019t something to be suspicious of. It\u2019s the whole point. So yes. I\u2019ve changed. I\u2019ve grown. I\u2019m not who I was in 2017 and I am so grateful for that. Thank God, literally. #bigbrother #personalgrowth #christianwoman #faithandfunny.\u201d<\/p>\n

Soon after sharing her perspective, Jessica \u2014 who won The Amazing Race<\/i> with Cody, 41, in 2018 \u2014 received supportive comments from other reality stars.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank God I\u2019ve grown \ud83d\udc4f\u2764\ufe0f,\u201d Big Brother<\/i> alum Elena Davies<\/strong> wrote in the comments section. Bachelor Nation\u2019s Vanessa Grimaldi<\/strong> added, \u201cAmen!!\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f.\u201d<\/p>\n
