The Bachelor alum posted a slideshow of photos featuring Greg late last week, and they included wine tasting, horses, and fireworks.

"I turned 30 this week & had a couple of meltdowns. But then I thought why? I truly am so grateful for everyone and everything I have in my life," Victoria captioned the images.

"And life happens so fast that sometimes we don't stop to see all that we have accomplished or how far we have come. Here's a reminder to do so."

Victoria proceeded to thank her boyfriend, Greg, for making this past year of her life "the best year yet."

The Bachelor in Paradise alum then gave a shout-out to her followers and continued, "Thank you guys for taking this journey with me. I can't wait to see what this next era holds!!!"

Victoria added the following hashtag to her post, "Thirty, flirty, and thriving!!!!"

Victoria subsequently shared her hashtag via Instagram Stories and added, "Or crying, either one."

Greg, meanwhile, also uploaded photos from his special trip with Victoria to Virginia.

"The happiest of birthdays to the one that makes sure to crack me up every single day while simultaneously keeping me on my toes," Greg gushed of his girlfriend. "30 has never looked prettier."

Victoria received a lot of support from Bachelor Nation in the comments section of her post.

"Babes if you're what 30 looks like, we ALL want to be 30," Genevieve Parisi wrote.

Kate Gallivan commented, "30s are powerful and you're only getting hotter!"

And Jill Chin admitted, "I want to be Victoria Fuller when I grow up (in 2 years)."

Back in July, Victoria shot down speculation that she and Greg had split up. Fans were curious about the pair's relationship when they hadn't posted photos of each other on social media for about a month in June.

"Weekend Diary," Victoria captioned photos with Greg on July 31 when they were in Nashville together.

A week earlier, the @deuxmoi Instagram account had posted a blind with the subject "G and V," seemingly standing for Greg and Victoria.

The person anonymously wrote, "Not all roses for this reality couple. Jealousy and heated arguments were a major factor. Not sure why they're waiting so long to announce, but it's done."

The gossip was then re-reported by a TikTok user, spreading the breakup rumors online.

Back in June, Victoria explained in a Q&A session on Instagram Stories why she and Greg aren't engaged yet.

"LMFAOOOOOOO. [Questioning about our engagement] is nuts!! You guys, if you don't remember, one year ago I was engaged [to Johnny DePhillipo]. When it happens, it will not be rushed or for anyone but us. But y'all will be the first to know, trust," Victoria said.

Earlier this summer, Victoria and Greg began house hunting together in Nashville after Greg promised to leave New York to be with his girlfriend.

After all, Greg revealed in April that he could see himself marrying Victoria and welcoming children together within the next five years.

And Victoria, who most recently appeared on Bachelor in Paradise's eighth season last year, seems smitten with her man, who initially competed on Katie Thurston's season of The Bachelorette.

Greg and Victoria first met at Governors Ball Music Festival in Summer 2021 and remained friends for nearly a year.

The couple told Nick Viall in December on "The Viall Files" podcast that they had mutual interest in each other but never acted on those feelings, especially since Victoria wanted to appear on Bachelor in Paradise in June 2022 and Greg was in a relationship with a woman overseas at that point.

Victoria therefore looked for love on Paradise, and she fell hard and fast for Johnny, who initially competed for Gabby Windey's heart on The Bachelorette's nineteenth season.

Victoria and Johnny got engaged on Bachelor in Paradise's eighth season, but the couple split shortly after filming the finale.

Victoria alleged Johnny had called her terrible names -- including a "f-cking c-nt" and "homewrecker," which Johnny denied and called "low blows" -- and Johnny claimed Victoria was jealous and "heartbroken" over his The Bachelorette stint, which was airing on television while they were secretly engaged.

Johnny also said Victoria demanded a lifestyle he wasn't ready for yet and their differences were glaring.

According to Victoria, she and Johnny ended their engagement three weeks after Johnny's marriage proposal because their dynamic was "toxic."

But Johnny believes his relationship with Victoria didn't officially end until mid-September considering they were allegedly still speaking and going to therapy before Victoria enjoyed a surprising European getaway with Greg in late October.

Fans first spotted Victoria and Greg, and suspected a romance, when they were spotted in Italy together.

Because of how quickly Victoria moved on from Johnny, the brunette beauty was accused of cheating on her then-fiance with Greg.

Victoria and Greg also flirted on social media as reports swirled about Victoria and Johnny's split.

Victoria said that Greg officially asked her to be his girlfriend on Halloween, and then Victoria went public with her new relationship on November 4, when the Bachelor in Paradise reunion special taped.

Bachelor in Paradise's reunion aired in late November, and fans were shocked to see Victoria and Greg so affectionate and carefree about their relationship. Victoria claimed she didn't care what anyone thought of her because she was so happy with Greg.

"I'm completely in love with her, like, head over heels in love with her," Greg said on Nick's podcast.

Nick therefore playfully asked Greg if he was ready to propose marriage to Victoria.

"Stay tuned!" Victoria teased.

"I mean, we both want that in life," Greg interjected, "she's my person."

Victoria agreed that Greg is her "person" as well, and then Greg added, "I haven't felt -- I don't want to say 'content,' that's not the right word because it sounds boring. But I think there's a certain beauty with being content with someone."

Greg said he could just sit in a room with Victoria for days on end and they wouldn't get sick of each other.

"We're growing day by day, and I see it going that route," Greg gushed. "I want that and I know that that's important to her, and I want to be able to take that step with her."

Victoria was clearly getting choked up and she said, "I'm going to cry."

Prior to appearing on Paradise, Victoria competed for Peter Weber on The Bachelor's 24th season and finished in third place after Fantasy Suites.
