Abigail Heringer and Noah Erb didn't exactly glide through Bachelor in Paradise's seventh season in Summer 2021 as a couple.
They briefly split along the way due to Abigail missing a spark with Noah and being guarded, but Noah decided to push through the friend-zone and fight for her.
Noah, however, had been fighting a gut feeling the entire time that Abigail may not be his "person."
And so just as Abigail was ready to tell Noah she was certainly "falling in love" with him -- after Noah had already expressed his love days beforehand -- Noah decided to end their relationship and let her down gently.
Abigail admitted that she felt lied to and betrayed, but Noah insisted he had been upfront and honest with her throughout the whole process.
Noah said that while Abigail is "perfect in so many ways," he worried that she's not the perfect girl for him.
Abigail and Noah therefore both left the show single, crying and alone, but Bachelor in Paradise provided viewers with an update on the couple at the end of the finale broadcast.
"Noah and Abigail left Paradise and realized they missed each other," according to an onscreen graphic. "They are hanging out and taking things...SLOWLY."
Abigail and Noah did just that, but Abigail revealed in an Instagram video in October 2021, "I love you @noah_erb."
The Oregon native captured sweet and playful moments, including four months of secret post-show hangout sessions, with Noah once they reunited after their stint on Bachelor in Paradise in Mexico.
Noah also gushed on his Instagram Stories at the time that Abigail is "the love story" he never knew he needed and is "thankful for."
Abigail and Noah proceeded to travel together, and Abigail confirmed in December 2021 they're still an item.
"Loving you is easy," Abigail captioned the video montage.
In August 2023, Abigail and Noah announced they had gotten engaged after dating for more than two years.
And in April 2024, the couple announced they had settled on a wedding date and venue and they will get married in Oklahoma before the end of the year.
