‘The Challenge’ Star Davis Mallory Says Faith Made Him No…

Davis Mallory, a reality show star who first appeared on The Real World and later competed on multiple seasons of The Challenge says he’s no longer gay.

Mallory posted a video to social media where he shared his story with members of the Arise Church located in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. In the video, Mallory says, “I lived the gay lifestyle for about 20 years, I was on a television show The Real World and I came out as a gay Christian. But God really pulled me out of that lifestyle a year ago.”

The crowd cheered as Mallory continued, “Yeah praise God, praise God, honestly. He started speaking to me in my dreams and showing me the spiritual warfare that I was going through. Every time I returned to sin I would have a nightmare that a car, my car was being broken into … So he was just showing me these really strong visual dreams, these images of what sin was doing in my life.”

Detailing another dream, Mallory added, “I heard the words, ‘Seek the younger generation and then take the news to the wise generation.’ So I felt like God was really calling me out into something.”

He went on to describe how he recently met an older man who was speaking to him about religion and the use of tongues. Mallory claimed he was also recently water baptized.

In the days since posting his video, Mallory also shared a video of the spot where he was baptized, with the caption, “This is the beach I got “Baptized” (both in the spirit and in the water) earlier this year in February 2025 – always a special place for me to return to! What a day!”

Davis appeared on season 18 of The Real World in Denver, Colorado back in 2006 and also competed on three seasons of The Challenge.
