TLC Star Baylen Dupree Just Got Married and Now She Is Already Looking for Her First Home

They got married on May 9, 2026. Ten days later, their show was already back on air. And somewhere in between all of that, they started walking through homes in a city they had never lived in.

That is a lot of change for two people in their mid-twenties. And that is exactly what makes this worth paying attention to.

One Month Married, Already Buying a Home in a New City

Baylen Dupree and Colin Dooley tied the knot in Warrenton, Virginia, in front of 140 guests. Season 3 of Baylen Out Loud premiered just 10 days after the wedding and picks up right where life left off.

The season documents something bigger than wedding planning. Colin has been seriously pursuing a career in real estate after leaving the U.S. Air Force in November 2025, and a Myrtle Beach internship opportunity brought a relocation conversation neither of them had fully prepared for.

Baylen’s reaction was honest: “I’m shocked. I’m already going to be without my friends and family, and now add first-time home buyers on top of that?”

What the House Tour Actually Looked Like

Colin and Baylen flew to Myrtle Beach with one goal: get a feel for the area and walk through a few properties. Their guide was Josh, a local real estate agent and friend who took them through one particularly well-laid-out home.

The primary suite had a king-sized bed, a full bathroom with blue subway tile, a pebble tile shower pan, and a corner seat. Baylen’s verdict on the space was clear: “This is like the perfect room space.”

Colin, meanwhile, went straight for the closet. He opened the double doors, looked at the wire shelving, looked at Baylen, and delivered: “Oh, you’re definitely going to have to downsize, Baylen.” She did not agree. “Not too many, just a lot,” she said about her clothes. He got the last word anyway.

The home had four bedrooms, a loft with natural light, washer and dryer on the upper level, and a kids’ room that somehow fit a bunk bed and a twin bed. That last detail caught Colin’s attention specifically.

Why This Move Is About More Than a Career Change

Colin said it himself during the tour. Looking at the kitchen and the floor plan, he noted: “This house is very beautiful on the inside. It has a lot of bedrooms, so it gives us a lot of options whether we want to have offices for the both of us, future kids as well.”

That one line reframes the whole trip. They were not just checking square footage. They were picturing a life.

Colin’s plan is clear: “We are flying to Myrtle Beach to get a sense of the area and just look at a few homes down there. That way, whenever the application gets approved, we can pull the trigger on a house as soon as possible.”

For context on how this fits the larger pattern of young couples making high-stakes moves right after major life events, Realtor.com’s exclusive coverage of the episode captured just how much ground this couple is covering at once.

Also worth noting: this kind of post-wedding relocation pressure is not unique to reality TV. We covered a RHOBH star who spent over $1 million on luxury while her dream home slipped into foreclosure, a story that shows how fast things can shift when big life decisions stack up without a financial buffer.

Why This Matters

Baylen left her parents’ home in West Virginia for DC in Season 1. That move alone was treated as a major milestone for someone managing Tourette syndrome daily. Now she is potentially uprooting again, to a place where she has no existing support system.

That is not a small ask. And the show does not pretend it is.

For first-time buyers, Myrtle Beach in 2026 is actually one of the more accessible coastal markets right now.

Median home prices sat at $274,000 in January 2026, with days on market averaging around 103 across many segments, meaning buyers currently have real negotiating room. For a couple their age, the timing is not bad at all.

TLC has already confirmed that Myrtle Beach will be the backdrop for at least parts of Season 4. So whatever they decide, viewers are going to see it land in real time.

Baylen has nearly 13 million TikTok followers. When someone that visible makes a first home purchase on camera, it becomes a reference point for a lot of young people watching from similar situations.
