Kaitlyn Bristowe Spectates 2025 NYC Marathon as Rumored BF Zac Clark Runs

Kaitlyn Bristowe touched down in the Big Apple as rumored boyfriend Zac Clark ran the 2025 New York City marathon.

“Spectating a marathon is hard,” Bristowe, 40, wrote via her Instagram Story on Sunday, November 2, alongside a selfie with Bachelor Nation’s Serena Pitt. The duo each held up a champagne glass filled with a drink as they smiled for the camera.

Pitt was supporting fellow Bachelor Nation alum and husband Joe Amabile, who finished the marathon in 3 hours, 49 minutes and 53 seconds. Bristowe, meanwhile, was likely cheering on Clark, 41, who completed 26.2 miles in 3 hours, 27 minutes and 33 seconds.

Rumors began swirling about Bristowe and Clark’s relationship in January 2024, when the pair were spotted celebrating New Year’s Eve together at her Nashville home. Later that year, Bristowe supported Clark when he ran the 2024 New York City Marathon. After Clark shared an Instagram post explaining his reason behind running, Bristowe commented, “You are one bright ass light.”

Bristowe was previously engaged to Shawn Booth for three years, before the couple called it quits in 2018. She moved on with Jason Tartick, with whom she split in 2023 after four years together. Clark, meanwhile, was engaged to former Bachelorette Tayshia Adams. The twosome split in 2021.

Bristowe and Clark have not publicly confirmed or denied their romance, but the former Bachelorette has hinted at their relationship in several interviews. During an appearance on the “U Up?” podcast in August 2024, Bristowe explained that she reached out to a woman after going on a date with her “Bachelor Nation” ex. (Bristowe did not name Adams nor Clark in the interview.)

Bristowe explained that the woman replied, saying, “I always knew you were a bad person and you’ve confirmed it. Your true colors are showing.” Bristowe hung up the phone and thought, “Now, I just want to send her a picture of me sucking his d***.”

Bristowe went on to receive backlash for her remarks, later apologizing for how the comments “came off.” In her “Off the Vine” Facebook group, Bristowe wrote, “My sense of humor isn’t for everyone.”

Every Clue That Bachelor Nation’s Kaitlyn Bristowe and Zac Clark Are Dating

While discussing her love life with Us Weekly in August, Bristowe explained her decision to keep her status tight-lipped.

“Privacy is so hot, like, I am turned on by being private. There’s something really special and sacred about it,” Bristowe shared at the time. “Obviously, I had two very public relationships, and I’m an over-sharer and an open book, and it’s very hard to not share certain things of my life, but it feels so right. Relationships from Bachelor franchise or people online, like, it starts to feel a bit performative at times. And I feel like that was where it was going for me last time, and it did not feel good.”

She continued, “So this time around … I’m like, ‘Look, I just turned 40. I am in the best place of my life in every aspect — personally, professionally, spiritually, in a good place, and protecting my peace can come with some privacy.’ And I’m into it.”
