Becca Kufrin and Blake Hortsmann are both stars of ABC‘s dating and relationship reality television series, ‘The Bachelor‘ and, ‘The Bachelorette.’
Becca Kufrin, 31, a former publicist, was the winner of the 22nd season of The Bachelor and also the lead of the 14th season of ‘The Bachelorette.’
Blake Hortsmann, 32, entrepreneur and podcast host, was the season 14 runner-up of The Bachelorette.
Becca met Blake during her search for love in season 14 of ‘The Bachelorette‘ in 2018.
Horstmann made it to the final two but Becca left Horstmann heartbroken in the finale when she chose Garrett Yrigoyen.
Becca accepted a proposal from Yrigoyen but two years after their engagement, the couple called it quits in August 2020.
Earlier this year, Bachelor Nations fans began to wonder whether Kufrin was rekindling her flame with Horstmann after the duo were caught exchanging flirty messages on social media.
Horstmann has also noted that he’d been “back in touch” with Kufrin within the past six months.
Is Becca Kufrin And Blake Horstmann back together and engaged?
While fans may be excited about a Becca-Blake reunion and would like to see the two together, Blake and Becca have, however, shut down rumors that they are back together following her split from Yrigoyen.
While they have both admitted getting back in touch and talking they, however, say it is nothing romantic and they are just friends.
“In terms of the talking, quote-unquote, yeah, I mean, we’ve been in touch very sporadically, but nothing that I would say would [indicate anything romantic]“, Becca said during an appearance on an episode of the Click Bait with Bachelor Nation podcast, co-hosts Joe Amabile and Natasha Parker.
A source told Us Weekly that while the reality stars both “care a lot about each other and have always been supportive of one another,” their relationship is strictly platonic.
Becca says she isn’t so sure revisiting those old feelings would be a good idea — especially since she is joining this season of Bachelor in Paradise.
While a romance may not be in their future, the twosome says they will always have each other’s backs.
“If he and Becca were meant to be then that’s something that would eventually happen, but he’s not looking back,” a source recently told Us, adding, “Blake supports Becca no matter what.”
