The Bachelorette‘s Kaitlyn Bristowe is sick of speculation over her love life and is setting the record straight about her engagement to Jason Tartick. Since returning to host the ABC series alongside Tayshia Adams, Kaitlyn has even more eyes on her than usual. Now, the Dancing With the Stars season 29 winner is letting those prying eyes know her engagement to Jason Tatrick is going strong. Also, that they should really butt out.
In May, shortly before her hosting debut aired, the season 11 lead announced her engagement on Instagram. Her fiance Jason is also connected to Bachelor Nation, as a contestant on Becca Kufrin’s season. The two franchise alumni have been together since 2019. Their swoon-worthy romance started the year after Kaitlyn’s bad breakup with her season’s winner Shawn Booth. Jason has been nothing but supportive of his partner, from cheering on her DWTS run to praising her chemistry with Tayshia. The two also openly talked about planning their future for some time, even before he proposed. And during a June 23 Instagram Q&A, Kaitlyn was clearly fed up with fans questioning their happiness.

As reported by E! News, the Off The Vine host posted an Instagram Story while en route to what was later revealed to be a Hawaii trip. Though she asked fans to guess where she was going, many weren’t interesting in following the prompt. Instead, the responses quickly turned irritating. A prying follower wrote,“Hopefully somewhere with your fiancé? Miss seeing you two together.” Kaitlyn replied, “We were literally just in Chicago this weekend so where have you been sista?”
Another asked, “Why aren’t you wearing your engagement ring?” Kaitlyn posted a photo showing off the ring on her finger, captioning the shot with, “I am ya Turkey”. A sympathetic follower asked how the reality star handles these types of questions. She responded, ”One person just asked ‘did you and Jason break up because I heard he moved out and hasn’t been in Nashville until weeks’ Like, don’t they understand they sound like delusional dingalings?”
Just last week, Kaitlyn had to clap back to and individual for their rude comments regarding her looks. So, it’s understandable she’s had enough. She’s not the only one viewers feel comfortable making assumptions about. Her co-host Tayshia has also dealt with this type of speculation, previously addressing rumors about her fiancé Zac Clark. Regardless of what the commenters think, Kaitlyn and Jason are still very much in love.
The Bachelorette airs Mondays at 8pm EST on ABC.
