Peter Weber and Kelley Flanagan are finally a couple.

After quarantining together for nearly a month, the former Bachelor and practicing lawyer are "officially dating," a source confirms to E! News. 

Explains our insider, "They have been pretty inseparable this last month and Peter is still quarantining with Kelley in Chicago. Peter had an idea that things would play out like this. He knew what he was doing when he first flew to Chicago. He was very interested in Kelley from the start, and after spending a lot of time with her, he decided he wanted to be exclusive."

The couple first sparked romance rumors when they were spotted canoodling in Chicago last month. 

Now that the cat's out of the bag, many fans believe it's not long until Kelley and Pete share the news themselves.

"They had a long talk about their relationship status, and Kelley wanted to be reassured Peter could be trusted," the source adds. "She was a bit hesitant at first. Peter knows Kelley is out of his league."

Unlike some of Peter's prior love interests, we're told the reality TV star family "adores Kelley and they are excited for her to come to California once the quarantine is over."

"They really don't have any set plans on how their relationship will work once ‘normal life' resides, and are really just enjoying the downtime together right now," our insider shares.

Peter and Kelly have had no problem sharing their day-to-day lives on TikTok as they quarantine with their friend Dustin. In addition, the two clearly adore each other, as they've shared in numerous interviews. 

It was only a matter of time before Kelley and Peter went official. In an interview with Nick Viall for Viall Files, Peter said, "Are we dating? No. Do I love spending time with her? Absolutely. We're not dating. Could I see that in the future? Yeah, of course. I'd be extremely lucky and very happy if that happened."

Of course, Peter also said he wanted to be respectful of the other women he dated during the course of his season, including exes Hannah Ann Sluss and Madison Prewitt. Nonetheless, these contestants were none too pleased to hear of the relationship rumors surrounding Peter and Kelley. 

In an interview, Madi claimed that she and Kelley were "best friends" and "inseparable throughout the entire process," which left her feeling betrayed by both Kelley and Pete. 

But Pete says "there's more to the story" than meets the eye. However, he has yet to share the fully story, so fans will just have to wait and see.

All in all, it's safe to say Pete's season of The Bachelor is the gift that keeps on giving.
