Kaity and Zach's engagement aired on The Bachelor's Season 27 finale in March, and they're currently living in the same city of Austin, TX.

"We're with each other a lot," Zach said in a joint interview with Kaity on the May 19 episode of "The Ben & Ashley I: Almost Famous Podcast."
Kaity said, "Like 24/7," to which Zach added, "So we're basically a fully-married couple. We just haven't officially moved in yet."

Kaity explained, "We're not living together yet [because] I'm waiting for my lease to come up, and same with Zach, and then we're going to move in together in July. So that's going to be different for us."
But Kaity laughed about how she's spent probably only three nights at her house since she and Zach returned to Austin, TX, after The Bachelor.
"She's got her sink and her side of the bed. It's all figured out, like, her snacks and yeah," Zach chimed in.
Kaity said her relationship with Zach -- an "amazing man" -- is stronger than ever and she's even "more in love with him" than when they got engaged.
Kaity and Zach even said on The Bachelor: After the Final Rose in March how they could see themselves tying the knot in 2025.

"We've talked about where we want to get married, and we've already started looking at venues," Kaity said.
"But also, at AFR, we said 2025 -- and I think that's just realistic. I think that's smart. I don't think we need to put pedal to the metal, like, we have our whole lives together so why rush into things?"
Kaity explained how she and Zach "just want to make sure it's right" in terms of how the wedding will turn out, and he agreed.
"We were just talking about this... about our relationship, and I told her that going into that whole process of The Bachelor, I wanted to make sure that I was 100 percent certain that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with this certain person," Zach shared.
"If I wasn't sure, then... I know I wouldn't have [proposed]... And when I [picked] Kaity, there was not a single doubt in my mind. I was like, 'I am going to marry that woman. I can't imagine not.'"

And Zach clarified how he "still" feels that way about his fiancee.
"And [I feel] even stronger now because I've gotten to know her more and we're still learning a lot about each other," Zach gushed.
While Kaity and Zach's relationship is still fairly new, Kaity insisted, "We are right for each other," without any hesitation.
"[Our wedding] could end up being the end of 2024!" Zach disclosed. "We kind of picked an arbitrary date because..."

"I need to also work," Kaity interjected. "I've worked 11 weeks since September. I have to hustle!"
And Zach acknowledged how "planning a wedding takes a long time."
But the pair didn't pretend to be perfect.
Zach admitted he and Kaity fight and bicker like normal couples but, at the end of the day, "the love is there" and he doesn't think it's going anywhere.
"I didn't think it was fully possible... through a TV show, but it kind of just feels like a blessing, and we're just really lucky," Zach noted.
In terms of what they're looking forward to the most in their relationship, both Kaity and Zach said "starting a family."
Kaity, in fact, revealed, "We're definitely having kids, 100 percent."
After returning to Texas post-The Bachelor, Kaity began working as a nurse again and Zach plans to resume his job as a tech salesman.
Kaity and Zach recently released engagement photos on social media, and the lovebirds hope to wed in 2025.
On The Bachelor's 27th season, Zach proposed marriage to Kaity in Thailand after he rejected Gabi Elnicki in second place.
When Gabi was walking up to Zach to learn the fate of their relationship, she expressed to the cameras how she had a feeling that she knew what was about to happen. Gabi's intuition apparently told her that she was going to have her heart crushed.

Gabi previously said on the "Click Bait with Bachelor Nation" podcast that there's a good reason why she chose not to self-eliminate from Zach's season when she was well aware that Zach was going to pick Kaity as his winner at the Final Rose Ceremony.
"I thought about my friendship with Kaity, and I hesitated saying this, but I think it is important to know, like, why I did stay," Gabi said in late March.
"I thought about my relationship with Kaity, and if I were in her shoes. And it was clear, Kaity was the choice. Kaity had been the choice. But if I had left, she could've felt like she was the choice by default. And she was truly the choice."
Gabi therefore wanted Kaity to have her moment -- a beautiful engagement free of doubts, reservations and insecurities.
"I never wanted her to feel like, 'Well, Gabi left, and so he had to choose me,'" Gabi explained to Joe Amabile on his podcast.
"Because no, he was always choosing Kaity. The only reason I would've left is because I knew he was choosing Kaity, but I didn't want her to feel any kind of doubt when he proposed to her and she watched it all back."
At the Final Rose Ceremony, Zach told Gabi that he wasn't "fully" able to make his final decision until the night before when he was in bed, but Gabi argued, "You've known. You've known."
Zach later told The Bachelor host Jesse Palmer on After the Final Rose that he knew he was going to choose Kaity during their last-chance date in Thailand.
Even though Gabi said she saw her elimination coming, she admitted in her final words on The Bachelor finale that she felt "humiliated" by the breakup.
Zach starred on The Bachelor after having his own heart broken by Rachel Recchia on The Bachelorette's nineteenth season last year. She ousted him in third place after Fantasy Suites.
