The Amazing Race star Ryan Ferguson is in a committed relationship with Brigit Mahoney, and the two are planning to get married soon. Fans may know Ryan from his appearance on the latest season of The Amazing Race. He is one of the competitors on the show who is appearing alongside his best friend, Dusty Harris. Ryan looks happy now, but he has a tragic past due to a wrongful conviction. He was falsely accused of murder in his early twenties and sentenced to 40 years. Thankfully, a Making a Murderer attorney helped him get out after serving 10 years of his life behind bars.

Ryan is now living his best life and making up for his lost time every day. The 37-year-old reality star already has a legion of followers on his Instagram, where he shares most of his life updates. Currently, he focuses on two main things, which are to help the ones who have been wrongfully convicted and become a realtor. He also has a great podcast called "Prison Counts." On the podcast, Ryan shares his story of wrongful conviction and talks about subjects such as prison life and the criminal justice system. While following his different passions, he also prioritizes spending time with family and friends.
