Although there's no engagement ring on Susie's finger, Clayton shared how the couple is taking the next step in their relationship by moving in together during a joint appearance with Susie on Good Morning America on Wednesday.

"I'm moving to Virginia," said Clayton, who is from a small town in Missouri.

"I'll be there in the next couple of days. We're hopping on a plane together, and [our journey] is just getting started."

Susie and Clayton mutually agreed to break up in what turned out to be a very tense and uncomfortable conversation during their Fantasy Suite date.

Susie was distraught over Clayton's decisions earlier in the week, namely that he had sex and professed his love to both Rachel Recchia and Gabby Windey, and she didn't think she could move past that. Meanwhile, Clayton felt Susie wasn't fighting for him and had "invalidated" their relationship up to that point.

Clayton proceeded to convince Gabby and Rachel to stay, and both women met his family.

But after the family gatherings, Clayton determined that he missed Susie and she's a "once-in-a-lifetime" woman with whom he had a very special and unique love.

Clayton therefore dumped Rachel and Gabby simultaneously and he threw "the biggest Hail Mary that Bachelor Nation has ever seen," according to The Bachelor host Jesse Palmer, by trying to win Susie back and writing her an apologetic and heartfelt letter.

Susie joined Clayton at the Final Rose Ceremony in Iceland and allowed him to pour his heart out to her.

But Susie admitted that she wasn't in love with the Bachelor and she didn't consider him to be her "person."

The pair therefore finished the show single and alone -- until Susie reached out to Clayton post-filming by sliding into his DMs!

Now that the pair has reconciled, Susie confirmed on The Bachelor finale Tuesday night that she is "in love" with Clayton and he's definitely her official "boyfriend."

Susie even playfully revealed that if she and Clayton get engaged, she'll be the one to ask him after what she had put him through!

On the live finale broadcast, Clayton revealed he had left his job as a medical sales representative and also sold his condo in order to give his romance with Susie a real shot.

"We have a lot of exciting things ahead! [This is] very [serious]," Clayton declared. "I'm moving out to Virginia!"

Clayton told Jesse on the finale that Susie was "the last person" he ever expected would reach out to him.

"I was just shocked, absolutely shocked," Clayton said.

Susie explained how she had to make the decision to leave Iceland alone for herself and it was the best decision she could have made at the time.

"I think that's why we're here today, because I was protecting myself and I didn't know what I wanted and I didn't know the capacity in which I wanted Clayton in my life," Susie shared. "But we took time apart after the show, and we reset and re-laid foundation."

Susie confirmed, "We're really happy," and revealed, "We took some steps back when we left Iceland... but I always had that love in my heart. I loved him as a person before I ever fell in love with him. I can confidently say, yeah, [I'm in love him]. He's incredible."

Susie told Jesse that she expects to receive some backlash from Bachelor Nation due to Clayton's season being so controversial but she hopes people will be happy for them and root for them as a couple.

"It's not Team Clayton and it's not Team Susie. We are together," Susie said, adding that they both have the best of intentions.

Clayton noted how his tumultuous journey was "1000 percent" worth it now that he's with Susie and he "couldn't be happier."

"I've spent the last four months with her, and she just impresses me more and more every day," Clayton gushed.

"She continues to give me reason after reason why following my heart was the best decision I ever could have made, and I could not be more in love with this woman."

Clayton then gave Susie his final rose, which she accepted with a full heart.
