Kevin Schlehuber is playing a pretty under-the-radar game on Big Brother's nineteenth season.

Kevin is a 55-year-old stay-at-home dad from the Boston area in Massachusetts.
Kevin may be the oldest contestant in the Big Brother house this season, but he seems to know how to interact and get along with all the younger houseguests. He also appears to gain competitors' trust very easily and has proved himself to be a little bit of a manipulator.
Kevin already won $25,000, but he has a ways to go before walking away with the $500,000 check.
Kevin seems to be doing just fine though, as he's not anyone's main target and is quietly playing both sides of the divided house. Curious to learn more about this Big Brother character?
