Reichen Lehmkuhl, (born Richard Allen Lehmkuhl; December 26, 1973) is an American lawyer, businessman, reality show winner, former model, and former occasional actor. A former United States Air Force officer with the rank of captain, he is best known for winning season four of the reality game show The Amazing Race with his then-partner Chip Arndt, and for his much publicized 2006 relationship with pop singer Lance Bass.

Early life

After Lehmkuhl's parents, a policeman and a nurse, divorced when he was five, his family moved to Norton, Massachusetts, and his mother remarried. Sometime after 2002, he changed his first name legally from Richard to Reichen.[1]

Lehmkuhl graduated from the United States Air Force Academy.[2] He has since advocated for gay rights in the military as a spokesperson for Servicemembers Legal Defense Network.[1]

The Amazing Race

Main article: The Amazing Race 4

Lehmkuhl was working simultaneously as a physics teacher at Crossroads School for the Arts and Sciences, flight instructor, and model in Los Angeles when he was approached by a casting director for The Amazing Race.[3] Lehmkuhl and Chip Arndt were a couple during the competition but have since split. Lehmkuhl moved to Dallas, Texas briefly after his win on The Amazing Race, but before all episodes had been broadcast. Reichen's spending habits at that time caused speculation that he had won The Amazing Race — and that he and Arndt had broken up. During the show, the couple was typically described as "Married" in the subtitles that are used to illustrate the relationship between team members (other teams being, for example, "Best Friends" or "Father-Daughter").

In January 2003, Lehmkuhl competed on the fourth season of the CBS adventure reality show The Amazing Race with his "husband" Chip Arndt. The two reached the final leg of the race and won the season.[4][5]
