Peter Weber Trolls His Commercial Acting Past in the Funniest Way Possible
Before Peter Weber graced our television screens on Hannah Brown’s season of "The Bachelorette" and subsequently as the Season 24 Bachelor, he once dabbled in acting.
During his season of "The Bachelor," a 2005 commercial Peter starred in for Sylvan Learning Center went viral. In the ad, he pushes a skateboard across a kitchen floor when his "mom" yells, "Mark, what did I tell you about skateboarding in the house?" When she looks down, she sees her son’s skateboard with his report card on it. She picks it up, smiles, and then hugs him.
Peter/Mark says, "School was tough, but Sylvan helped me read better," which is followed by a montage of our future Bachelor smiling with his tutors.
On Monday, Peter posted a photo on Instagram of himself crouching and smiling in front of a Sylvan sign. He captioned it, "'School was tough, then Sylvan helped me read better!'"

Peter's girlfriend Kelley Flanagan commented, "Thank god they helped you, you know I only like nerds 😜"
His off-camera mom Barb Weber wrote, "So proud of you!!!"
Peter’s brief jaunt to the Sylvan Learning Center over the weekend was just one stop along the way as he and Kelley travel together. On Monday, he posted a video of himself and Kelley sitting aboard a Delta Airlines plane, though he did not specify their destination.
The happy couple initially spent a large amount of time quarantining together in Chicago before heading to Los Angeles on Mother’s Day. On Monday, he uploaded a photo of the pair embracing as the sunset glows brightly in the background. Peter captioned it, "My little ray of sunshine."

The pilot recently shared some details about his "unorthodox" and "beautiful" relationship with Kelley, who appeared on his season of "The Bachelor." He said in a Cameo video for someone's birthday, "I think specifically for the type of relationship for Kelley and myself, it just wasn’t the most organic type of situation for us that was going to work. That’s OK, because each relationship is different."
He added, "In our relationship, we’ve kept coming back in each other’s lives, so it’s the way I look at it. It’s an unorthodox way, but definitely worked for us in the end."
Where to next, Peter and Kelley?
