Hannah Ann Sluss moved on from Bachelor Peter Weber with NFL player Jake Funk — and she hasn’t looked back.
While the pair began dating in late 2021 or early 2022, they stepped out for their first official red carpet in July 2022 at the ESPY Awards. Sluss previously exclusively told Us Weekly that the duo were trying to keep their relationship low-key.
“I wanted to wait to share [our relationship] with everyone because it was our decision,” she told Us in April 2022. “We’re very private and, you know, that just seems to be the best for us right now. With my past, things have been public and nothing really necessarily good has come from it, in my opinion. And so keeping things private and just having our own lives outside of social media [makes] it more of a true, meaningful relationship for us.”
Sluss announced in January 2023 that Funk proposed while on vacation in Mexico.

“We met a couple months ago and as soon as we met, we just had an instant connection and basically [we’ve been] inseparable since day one,” Sluss told Us in April 2022. “Just getting to know him and us being together and incorporating our lives together, it’s just been very seamless and easy.”
