Brian Autz Hard-Launches New Relationship with Girlfriend Avery — See the Photos!
Love is in the air!
Bachelor Nation first met Brian Autz on Season 21 of “The Bachelorette” and later on Season 10 of “Bachelor in Paradise.” While in Costa Rica, he connected with Parisa Shifteh, and the two left the beach together.
After filming, however, they went their separate ways. Parisa later shared on the “Bachelor in Paradise: Unplugged” reunion podcast that she had started seeing someone new.
Now, Brian is revealing that he’s also found love again, and he made it Instagram-official over Valentine’s Day weekend.
The Bachelor Nation star posted a photo on his Instagram Stories with his new girlfriend, Avery Bell. Avery also shared her own snaps from their getaway to Naples, Florida, captioning the post, “Escaping the snow!”
Brian joined in on the fun, commenting on her post, “Don’t Worry Darling Weekend 🙌😂❤️.”
Fans also noticed that fellow "Bachelor in Paradise" alum Bailey Brown has already hit "follow" on Avery’s page.
Brian hasn’t shared further details about the new relationship just yet, but we love to see him thriving.
We’ll keep you posted as we learn more, for now, we’re wishing the happy couple all the best in this new chapter!
