“My sister is the reason I was on the show.

The former baseball player admitted it’s going to be a long journey for his family to heal. After Josh praised his sister, Shannon showed her appreciation for Lindsey too.

“Lindsey was a huge fan of the show and would always watch her little brother and support him and us as a couple. She’s the reason why we are together. She’s the one who signed Josh up for the show. We feel like everything happens for a reason, and we owe all of that to Lindsey,” Shannon said.

Our deepest condolences go out to Josh and his family.
