CBS unveils the identities of the twelve couples competing in 'The Amazing Race 3'

Mystery Over Heather's Departure Builds, Likely Kaya-Related Despite Host's Claims

Though she insists she can't reveal anymore until the 6th and final episode of the series has ended, she says "My particular story is probably their main story for the entire show," Perry said. "I’m the one that came off the island with a really, really strange story." "Legally, I can’t explain," she said.

The exact details of what happened on her date with Kaya that caused her to want to leave the show -- and whether or not it's possibly related to the earlier rumor we reported in which it's said she left the show after learning of Ytossie and Taheed's child (perhaps Kaya revealed this little nugget during their date) -- remains unclear for now.

Little is know of her date with Kaya, audiences saw little of Perry’s date with Kaya. In one clip, Kaya
complained that good conversations with Perry were "few and far between." The feeling was mutual, Perry said during the interview. On their date, she said, Kaya was more interested in talking to outsiders who recognized them from the show. (no, he's not in it for the publicity :-)

"It was good fun and stuff," she said. "From a moral standpoint, I didn’t agree with what was happening."

Hummm... the mystery deepens. Thanks to Skye for the news article reference.

Single Girl Heather Rumored To Have Left Due To Couple With Child

Though we haven't found a print or online news report of it yet, we've heard from a couple of different sources that Heather left after learning that Ytossie and Taheed had a child, insisting that she didn't want to be part of anything involving the potential breakup of a family. If true, its possible this might be a trigger for the departure next week of the couple, and a good reason for the producers to not have mentioned it this week.

This idea is also supported by recent comments Heather has made in print, including: "The show really was a lot of fun, even with all the hype going on now, I wasn't really worried about what people might think of me [being a single], because my friends and family know I have a strong sense of values."

More details as we get them...
