By Shannon RaphaelSep. 6 2022, Updated 3:29 p.m. ET One of TV's most addicting (and gluttonous) food series is the Travel Channel's Man v. Food. It centers around a host who tries the best eateries in the country and attempts to demolish various food challenges along the way. The show was first led by Adam Richman, but after three seasons, he left the show and was soon embroiled in controversy surrounding some offensive tweets he posted.

Casey's new take on the show has kickstarted quite the hosting career, including the competition series Santa's Baking Blizzard and Beat Bobby Flay on the Food Network. Though Casey is becoming more of a fixture on our TV screens, not much is known about his life outside of being a foodie. So, who is Casey Webb married to?

The two appeared to have split in 2014, as Casey stopped posting pictures with her in June of that year.Article continues below advertisement View this post on Instagram A post shared by C A S E Y W E B B (@iamhusky4life) The real loves of Casey's life are food and performing.

When Casey's agent first asked him if he wanted to audition to host a food show, he had no idea that the gig was the reprisal of Man v. Food. He took the audition, and ended up getting offered the spot.

They kept it under wraps. It was under another name. Physically, I turned the page on the contract, and the second page said Man v. Food."Article continues below advertisement "The first page, I believe it said ‘Big Eats.’ At that moment, that's when I knew that this was the show," he recalled. "Before that, I was like, 'This seems a lot like Man v. Food.' I didn't even know Man v. Food was off the air." Casey went on to say that it was really by chance that he got the job, and that it only happened because he had pitched such a similar concept to the agent before. "I don't think if I had pitched a show concept of a host show to this agent, he would've asked me if I wanted to host. I wasn't really considering myself a host of anything ... It fell in my lap, really," he said.Article continues below advertisement He didn't exactly have the large quantity food challenge experience that the show requires, but he said that he had tried a few smaller pizza contests. Outside of the show, he notes that he's very conscious of keeping a clean diet and exercising enough to compensate for the challenges.
