And Jed, after breaking up with Angela, decided to propose to Alesia. Unsurprisingly, Alesia said ‘No,’ as, on multiple occasions, she made it clear to Jed – and viewers – that she wasn’t ready for engagement or marriage just yet.

However, Alesia did say she wanted to be with Jed and the two shared a sweet kiss.

It’s been a long six months since The Bachelors’ finale was filmed though, so, when New Idea spoke to Jed and Alesia, we had to check whether or not the couple is still together.

“We are seeing each other at this stage,” Jed confirmed.

And while the two are excited and “relieved” that they can finally go public with their relationship – Alesia revealed they’re “going to go out for dinner tonight” for their first public date post-Bachelors – an engagement still isn’t on the cards.

“Definitely nowhere near engagement… I wasn’t ready six months ago, after seven weeks. And this is obviously the second time I’ve seen him within the six months, you know, post filming. So, I feel like we’re starting from scratch. But so far, so good,” Alesia said.

When asked why they’ve lasted – Jed’s fellow Bachelors, Felix and Thomas have both announced they’ve split with Jess and Leah in the six months since The Bachelors finale was filmed – Jed and Alesia had an incredibly sweet response.

“I think 100 percent, like it just sounds so corny, but communication is so key. And also just having such a huge amount of respect for one another, just to be so supportive of each other through this whole time,” Alesia shared.

Jed went on to say that he’s written multiple songs about Alesia and one is getting released very soon.
