Barry ‘Bear’ Myrden picked Sunny Long on the finale of The Golden Bachelor on Sunday night.
The couple confirmed they are still together and have continued to see each other secretly since the reality show finished filming.
The engineer, 61, and his CEO ladylove, 58, have met up in a series of spicy Airbnb dates.
Sunny told Woman’s Day that they held several secret meetings, often at Airbnbs, where they had to arrive at staggered times and quickly enter to avoid being noticed.
“We weren’t allowed near the windows,” she said, turning to Bear. “Didn’t you think it was exciting, sneaking around like that?”
‘You know, it was a bit, he’s Mr Bond and I’m his Bond girl.’
In a shock confession, Bear even hinted that marriage may be in their future.
He told the publication they had a lot to talk about, specifically regarding a potential engagement.
Sunny said the two people involved clearly have strong feelings for each other, but they’re taking their time and not rushing into anything right now.
She explained that they both want their relationship to develop naturally, so they’re choosing to move forward slowly and steadily.
I was absolutely thrilled during Sunday’s finale! Seeing Bear finally tell Sunny how he felt, and then choosing her as his final pick, was such a sweet and heartwarming moment. I couldn’t have been happier for them!
Bear told a crying Sunny that he was incredibly impressed by her strength and spirit. He said she was amazing and deserved someone who would always support her dreams and help her soar.
‘When I think about the future, I can’t imagine doing it without you.’
With tears in her eyes, Sunny told them, “You’ve brought so much light into my life, and I finally feel hopeful. I’m so excited to share life’s adventures with you.”
Bear then presented a clearly delighted Sunny with a diamond commitment ring.
‘My heart is filled with love and joy and happiness, and I’m the happiest woman alive,’ Sunny said.
‘I love you, Bear!’ Sunny gasped, and Bear said in turn, ‘I love you, Sunny!’
Just before making his final choice, Bear confessed he’d developed romantic feelings, and his last date with Sunny in South Africa confirmed those feelings for him.
The turning point arrived when Janette, who finished second, finally admitted she was developing feelings for Bear.
Janette had been hoping for a truly unforgettable kiss, and she and her partner finally shared it just hours before Bear made his decision.
However, it was too late, as Bear had his heart set on Sunny.
