The Bachelor couple Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan aren't in any rush to wed, and Kelley has confirmed they are not secretly engaged.

"We are loving continuing to get to know each other, having lots of great adventures and growing together," Kelley, 28, shared with Entertainment Tonight in a recent interview. "We are very happy."
Peter and Kelley have been documenting their relationship, travels and love on Instagram.
This past weekend, the couple went rock climbing together, and Peter said he can't wait to cross more things off Kelley's bucket list.
And several weeks ago, Peter posted a video of Kelley walking towards the sunset on a cliff and he captioned it, "I'm a lucky guy."
Kelly also posted a photo of the couple in front of a small plane and wrote alongside it, "Dating a pilot is always a bonus."
Peter and Kelley currently appear to be living together.
In October, an insider told Us Weekly, "Kelley and Peter are planning to move to New York in January for Peter's job. In the meantime, they are looking to get a house in Chicago as an investment."
"They are very in love, serious and committed to one another," the insider added.
Peter sent Kelley packing in fifth place on The Bachelor's 24th season, which aired earlier this year, right before his Final 4 ladies took him to their hometowns to meet their families.

Peter, however, couldn't make it work with either of his Final 2 The Bachelor bachelorettes, Madison Prewett and former fiancee Hannah Ann Sluss, and so after a couple of chance-encounters with Kelley, the pair reunited to quarantine with each other as "friends" in Chicago about seven months ago.
But it didn't take long for romance to develop since the pair had strong feelings for each other on the show and Peter believed fate had brought them together to begin with.
(Peter and Kelley randomly met in the lobby of a Malibu hotel when they were attending different events before The Bachelor started filming in 2019.)
Following weeks of dating rumors, Peter and Kelley went Instagram official in May 2 when the California native posted a photo of the couple embracing in the cockpit of a plane.
Peter and Kelley gushed about being in love with each other in a July interview with Entertainment Tonight.
"We are in Kelley's apartment right now [in Chicago], but we do want to move in with each other, hopefully New York City in early fall -- maybe like September, late summer," said Peter, who first teased their plans to move to New York City on the June 8 episode of The Bachelor: The Greatest Seasons -- Ever! on ABC.
"We'd love to live in New York City and this [relationship] is very serious... It's perfect and it's unreal... [so] we're just jumping right into it!"

"We're not on a reality show anymore, we can take our time," Kelley explained.
"We don't need to rush anything. We want to make sure each other is in the right headspace, and there's nothing wrong with that. We're happy and we're living life."
Kelley added in the interview that she and Peter motivate each other to be better and they became best friends. She also apparently doesn't hold Peter's past and dating history against him.
"We've just done a good job of reassuring each other and just explaining why I did things, and owning up to my faults and just being a better person moving forward," Peter noted.
He later added in the ET interview, "Everything I put Kelley through... I'm still working to make it up to her for not picking her, and I'm never going to stop... I truly believe she is the perfect person for me."
During The Bachelor's live Season 24 finale on March 10, Kelley, who was sitting in the audience, watched an indecisive Peter break off an engagement to Hannah Ann and then reconcile with his supposed true love, Madison, whom he officially split from on March 12, just two short days after the finale aired.
However, Peter insisted during his ET interview that he and Madison never officially got back together after the finale and they just spent a couple of days talking.
Peter and Kelley were first spotted together hanging out in Chicago in late March.
