Chris Soules and Victoria Fuller Are Now Rumored to Be Dating and 'The Bachelor' Fans Are Freaking Out

It's not abnormal at this point for Bachelor Nation stars to cross paths, even if they hadn't appeared on a show together. Some of the friendships and romantic relationships formed within the franchise are adorable, some are random, and some are just plain weird. For the latest rumored pairing, fans are finding it bizarre, as TV guru Reality Steve says The Bachelor alums Chris Soules and Victoria Fuller are an item. Yes, you read that right.

Fans will remember Chris from Andi Dorfman's season of The Bachelorette, where he finished in third place. He then went on to become the Bachelor, where he ended up getting engaged to Whitney Bischoff. Soon after, they split. And of course, everyone remembers Victoria F. from Peter Weber's most recent season of The Bachelor, where she also finished in third—and caused a whole lot of drama in the process. I think I speak for everyone when I say I would never imagine these two together, but here we are. Steve Carbone tweeted out today: "I don't know how long this has been going on or how serious it is, but I can confirm that Victoria Fuller is currently together in Iowa for the week with Chris Soules." Uh, so much for social distancing.

Of course, fans of the ABC franchise are bugging out, and are weighing in on both Twitter and Reddit. One person tweeted in response, "this is a nightmare made in heaven," while another added, "Steven I have not even had my COFFEE today please warn me first!!!!!!!!" On Reddit, the responses were even more enthusiastic. User cryfreeedom shared Steve's tweet and hilariously wrote, "EXCUSE YOU, WHAT?!," a reference to one of Victoria's classic lines.

People were also quick to point out how irresponsible it is to travel amid the COVID-19 pandemic. One Redditor commented, "As someone who lives in the same city as her, how incredibly SELFISH of her to travel. We ALL have a freaking STAY AT HOME ORDER. What makes you so special that you can travel to your fbuddy?" Another wrote, "Assuming this is true - I don’t know why some people are actively dating/visiting each other in the middle of a pandemic. STAY HOME."

All in all, it doesn't look like Bachelor fans are thrilled about this new rumored coupling, but alas, we're all dying to know more.
