What’s going on with Victoria Fuller and Chris Soules? That’s the question Bachelor Nation is asking.

The pair sparked romance rumors on Wednesday after multiple outlets reported the two are hanging out. RealitySteve was first to stir speculation after sharing the following tweet. 

“(EXCLUSIVE): One of the more random Bachelor ‘couples’ that I can’t say I ever would’ve guessed,” the tweet stated. “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. Discuss.” 

Us Weekly also reported the farmer from Iowa and the medical sales representative from Virginia started hanging out after connecting on social media.

“Chris slid into Victoria’s DMs,” a source told the celebrity news outlet. “He apparently DMs a lot of people.”

But that’s not all. According to Us Weekly, social media sleuths noticed Fuller and Soules began following each other on social media earlier this month.

However, neither reality TV star has commented on the rumors.

Fans met Soules in 2014 during Andi Dorfman‘s season of The Bachelorette. He then went on to hand out the roses on season 19 of The Bachelor. He proposed to Whitney Bischoff; however, they ended their engagement in 2015. He also appeared on Dancing With the Stars.

Soules was then arrested following a 2017 car crash in Iowa. At the time, the Iowa State Patrol confirmed to E! News Soules was driving a pickup truck that rear-ended Kenneth Mosher‘s tractor trailer. Soules was accused of leaving the scene of the accident prior to law enforcement’s arrival and was arrested at his home in Arlington. After the crash, Mosher was taken to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead. 

In 2018, Soules entered a conditional guilty plea to leaving the scene of an accident resulting in serious injury. In 2019, he accepted a suspended two-year prison sentence to serve two years on probation. He also reached a $2.5 million settlement with the victim’s family.

Viewers met Fuller on Peter Weber‘s season of The Bachelor. She was one of the final three women vying for the pilot’s heart. Fuller also came under fire after photos of her modeling in an advertisement for an apparent marlin conservation group that used the phrasing “White Lives Matter” resurfaced online. She issued an apology.

Ciara has been pregnant before, but not in a time like this. 

The star is currently expecting her third child, but amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, pregnancy has been a different process for expectant women around the world. 

With limitations currently placed in some cities for how many people can be in the doctor’s office or delivery room to prevent further spread of the virus, some moms are facing child birth and other milestones in their baby journeys in ways they never expected. 

Ciara demonstrated some of this when she shared a clip of herself at an ultrasound appointment without her famous husband, Russell Wilson, physically in the room. However, the star athlete wasn’t far. As it turns out, the Seattle Seahawks quarterback was in the car and watching on FaceTime. 

“The life of a pregnant woman in Covid-19 Era is very interesting… Russ had to FaceTime me from the car for our Ultrasound,” the songstress wrote on Instagram. 

“Ultrasound visits during this era of Covid-19 is a bummer because my hubby @DangeRussWilson can’t come in with me to my visit. Truly a challenging time for expectant mothers,” she tweeted. 

While it’s certainly a tough time for people all around the world right now, the soon-to-be family of five are celebrating their blessings. 

Just a day ago, they learned the sex of the little one on the way. Ciara’s 5-year-old son Future got his wish when he expressed his hope for a brother before the big reveal. 

Yup, there’s a baby boy on the way for the celebrity couple. Congratulations! 

Hannah Ann Sluss knows what she wants in her next suitor.

While giving Wells Adams and Brandi Cyrus an update on her relationship status during her visit to their podcast Your Favorite Thing, the Bachelor alum shared the qualities she’s looking for in her next boyfriend, explaining that her ideal man is the “opposite” of Peter Weber.

“Gosh, my type changes after, like, with every guy that I’m interested in,” she told the duo. “Okay, the next guy I’m looking for—the type, I want him to be very hunky. I want him to be very manly. Very manly. Very, very decisive. Very independent.” 

When Brandi quipped that her description was the opposite of her former fiancé, Hannah Ann joked, “Yes, the opposite,” and continued, “I want him to be, like, very manly and, like no messing around. Just to the point, decisive. And, I want him to be hot, like, super hot and hunky.”

As for her relationship status now, the 23-year-old said that she is still adjusting to life post-Bachelor and opened up about how hard it was to keep her and Peter’s failed engagement a secret as the show unfolded, adding that she had to be “very single” throughout the entire process. 

“Leading up to, like, going on the show, I had to be very, very single, you know, I didn’t want to be texting any guys because I was kind of in the casting process—which is weird ‘cause, like, [it] still had to be, like, I was dating him before I even went on the show, you know?” she shared. “So, [I] went on the show, I was dating him, got engaged and then afterwards, you know, we broke up but I couldn’t really text guys because then they would know I wasn’t engaged. So, I was kind of still with him and then, you know, still, like, unavailable.”

Hannah Ann continued, “And then after, you know, the last episode of the show, I’m, like, finally being able to be single and then we go into this quarantine where you can’t really see anyone and so, my dating life has just been, like, really whacky and boring. But I have seen one person, in particular, because I can only choose one, you know?” 

Last week, the model gave more details about her “mystery man” during her candid interview on Off the Vine With Kaitlyn Bristowe. Describing their relationship as a “quarantine fling,” the Bachelor winner gushed that she’s had a “FaceTime date” with him and that he’s brought her coffee. Hannah Ann remained tight-lipped about his identity, but she did assure host Kaitlyn Bristowe that her new guy isn’t a member of the Bachelor Nation.

While chatting with Wells and Brandi, Hannah Ann also weighed in on Peter’s rumored rekindled romance with Kelley Flanagan.

When asked about her feelings on the former loves quarantining together, the model stressed that she wasn’t familiar with their situation and said, “I don’t know fully. I don’t think they really have answered that either. But I mean, Kelley and I were good friends on the show and we don’t have any, like, bad blood. I talked to Kelley actually the other day.” 

With more than 40 years of experience and involvement in hundreds of charities and organizations, Princess Anne certainly knows a thing or two about being a productive working royal. 

In a rare interview with Vanity Fair, the soon-to-be 70-year-old Princess Royal, famously the only daughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip, reflected on her life’s work as a member of the British royal family and what it means to her to serve, particularly as a new generation of royals rise up. 

“It’s not just about, Can I get a tick in the box for doing this? No, it’s about serving,” she told Vanity Fair. “It comes from an example from both my parents’ way of working and where they saw their role being. I mean, my father served. It was a more direct form of service, I suppose you could argue. And the queen’s has been a lifelong service in a slightly different way, but they both have that perspective of service which is about working with people.”

But, as the next generation emerges and perspectives shift with time, Princess Anne knows not all change is necessarily good. 

Per the magazine, the princess described herself as “the boring old fuddy-duddy at the back saying, ‘Don’t forget the basics.'” 

“I don’t think this younger generation probably understands what I was doing in the past and it’s often true, isn’t it? You don’t necessarily look at the previous generation and say, ‘Oh, you did that?’ Or, ‘You went there?’ Nowadays, they’re much more looking for, ‘Oh let’s do it a new way,'” she elaborated. “And I’m already at the stage, ‘Please do not reinvent that particular wheel. We’ve been there, done that. Some of these things don’t work. You may need to go back to basics.'”

As for her own retirement, it certainly doesn’t sound immediate for the royal with an upcoming milestone birthday. In fact, the busy princess had even planned to be in New York for royal work in the fall, though those plans are now up in the air given the current coronavirus pandemic. 

“I don’t think retirement is quite the same [for me],” she told Vanity Fair. “Most people would say we’re very lucky not to be in that situation because you wouldn’t want to just stop. It is, to a large extent, the choice of the organizations you’re involved with and whether they feel you’re still relevant. But I think both my father and my mother have, quite rightly, made decisions about, you know, ‘I can’t spend enough time doing this and we need to find somebody else to do it’ because it makes sense. I have to admit they continued being there for a lot longer than I had in mind, but we’ll see.”

Hey, it’s OK to feel stressed or anxious. Now repeat that to yourself. 

As we all continue to practice social distancing amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, a lot is uncertain right now and you may find yourself feeling way more stressed out or isolated lately, and Dr. Drew Pinsky is offering ways to manage and reduce that anxiety in healthy and “proactive” ways. 

As part of E!’s new Wellness Wednesday, the celebrity doctor is offering tips on how to manage and reduce your stress and anxiety while social distancing. 

“I think as we’re moving our way through this people are becoming increasingly aware that mental health is one of the things we need to pay a lot of attention to,” Dr. Drew explains in the video above, “that if we don’t, the consequences will come to bear.”

And one of the 61-year-old doctor’s biggest tips is a simple one: don’t ignore how you are feeling.

“Rather than let that anxiety paralyze you, lean into it, dare it to come on, bring it on, let it come,” Dr. Drew encouraged, “and you may find internal resources you did not know you had.”

If you do find yourself needing some external resources, however, Dr. Drew offered several tips, including getting some time outdoors, exercising and keeping structure to your day.

“The other thing we need is a future, we’ve all been robbed of our future by the quarantine, all of a sudden we didn’t know how to plan our future,” Dr. Drew explained. Look forward to there being specific things that we will be asked to do to get out of this and consider how you’re going to plan your future.”

He continued, “There is a future coming and you should look forward to it just the way you always did. That’s very important: hope and planning and structure in our day.”

For more tips on how to manage the stress and anxiety you may be feeling right now, watch the video above to hear from Dr. Drew, who also advised anyone finding trouble “functioning” to reach out to your personal physician.
