Hannah Ann Leaves Sweet Comment for Madison 1 Week After 'Bachelor' Finale
Though they vied for the same man's heart, there's no bad blood between Hannah Ann Sluss and Madison Prewett.
On Monday, one week after Peter Weber's extremely dramatic "Bachelor" season finale, Madison posted a photo of herself on Instagram about the significance of the weekday. The picture shows her smiling with one hand raised in the air as she walked down the street in her hometown of Auburn, Alabama.
She captioned it, "Well this Monday is a little different.. Also hope everyone is staying safe."
The picture instantly garnered over 540,000 likes as well as a slew of positive comments. One in particular stood out: Hannah Ann's. She commented, "Cutie" with heart and kiss face emojis next to it.
Other "Bachelor" alumnae remarked on her photo, including Raven Gates, who wrote, "The best is yet to come!!!"
Mykenna, who appeared on Peter's season alongside Madison and Hannah Ann, added, "We love a Canadian tuxedo 👏🏻 YOU ARE GLOWING!!!!!!"

Both Hannah Ann and Madison’s relationship with Peter faced ups and downs over the course of the season — especially the finale. Madison and Peter’s relationship appeared uncertain after Fantasy Suites, but she ultimately accepted his rose and headed on to the final two. She then broke up with him during their last date together in Northern Territory, Australia.
Peter proposed to Hannah Ann on the finale, but his lingering feelings for Madison left him conflicted. Peter and Hannah Ann broke up a few months later, and Chris Harrison traveled to Alabama to report the news to Madison. After a brief meeting in Los Angeles after that, Madison and Peter reunited onstage at "After the Final Rose." They both advocated for their relationship and acknowledged the "uphill battles" they would face as a couple.
Two days later, however, Peter and Madison announced they "mutually decided not to pursue our relationship any further." They both spoke highly of each other and praised the other person's values and heart.
Hannah Ann spoke about Peter and Madison's reconciliation on an exclusive episode of "Bachelor Happy Hour" and what she would do if she were in Madison's shoes. She told Rachel Lindsay and Becca Kufrin, "If you look back on this season and Peter’s pattern of behavior being consistently indecisive and confused, I’d be running for the hills."
She added, "Even if you say he loves you, look at his pattern of behavior. The one consistency he’s ever had is being confused, conflicted, and torn. If you want to ride that emotional rollercoaster with him — go for it. I just got off of it, and it’s a wild ride."
