As the "America's Next Top Model" Cycle 22 winner, deaf "Switched at Birth" actor Nyle DiMarco toured around Asia to promote OPPO smartphones.

It appears that 22 is Nyle DiMarco's lucky number. After winning "America's Next Top Model" Cycle 22, the deaf model and actor won the Mirrorball trophy at the "Dancing with the Stars" Season 22 finale with his partner Peta Murgatroyd.

DiMarco took to Facebook to express his happiness and gratitude. He dedicated his victory to his fellow deaf people around the world.

 

Born in Queens, New York, DiMarco comes from a deaf family. His parents Neal Thompson, Sr. and Donna DiMarco as well as his brothers are all deaf.
