"America's Next Top Model" season 22 finalist Nyle DiMarco made his "Switched at Birth" debut on the ABC Family series on season 3 episode 18 episode titled "It Isn't What You Think," which aired on July 28, 2014.
DiMarco made his return to the ABC Family series as Garrett in the episode that aired on Sept. 28. Recently, he appeared again in "Switched at Birth" season 4 episode 18 titled "The Accommodations of Desire."
In "Switched at Birth" season 4, it was not only Travis (Ryan Lane) and Emmett (Sean Berdy) who were interested in Bay (Vanessa Marano). After meeting Bay at a coffee shop, Garrett became interested in her.
According to Marano, DiMarco is causing quite a commotion on the set of "Switched at Birth" season 4. She told E! News, "It was so funny. All of the burly, super macho grips on set were drunk by his beauty."
Marano added, "Someone came up to me and said, 'I am completely comfortable in my heterosexuality, but that is a beautiful man."'
Aside from playing a recurring role in "Switched at Birth," DiMarco is the first ever deaf contestant in the history of "ANTM." In a recent interview with MTV, he said he did feel a sense of responsibility to the community when he found out that he was going to appear on The CW series created by Tyra Banks.
As a minority, the "Switched at Birth" season 4 actor and "ANTM" cycle 22 contestant said he felt "wholly responsible" to represent his deaf community well.
