It's been weeks since the finale aired, but there have been rumors that The Golden Bachelorette couple Joan Vassos and Chock Chopple's relationship is currently in trouble.
There are also accusations that their relationship is just a "showmance" and none of them have been real. Now, the couple has weighed in on the rumors surrounding the current state of their romance.
Joan and Chock on Their Rumored Relationship Issues
In a recent video post on Joan's Instagram account, the couple addressed the rumors surrounding their relationship and accusations of having a fake romance.
They assured everyone that their relationship was real and they were very much in love on and off-screen.
"We wanna tell everybody that we are real. We get that question all the time. People see us, and they go, ‘We didn’t realize you’re real!'" they said.
The couple also shared that their respective families spent their first Thanksgiving together.
"We kind of merged our families for the first time at Thanksgiving. That was a little strange," Joan admitted.
"But it went great, and we love being together. In fact, when we’re not with our families, and it’s just the two of us, we are such a good couple. The family part is a little harder, right?"
Chock added that they would be doing more posts soon where they will show their differences "from looking for parking spots to hiding cell phone charger cords, all that stuff, so we are a real couple, trust me."
When Will Joan and Chock Get Married?
Joan and Chock have not discussed their plans yet for the highly-anticipated wedding soon.
The happy couple is continuing to spend their time together and learning more about each other before walking to the altar.
In a recent interview, Joan teased their plans for the wedding and the possibility that it could be televised.
"I originally said that I wanted for it to be small with just our friends and family, but as I think a little bit more about it, I somewhat think that maybe we would do a televised wedding," she said.
"I feel like everybody that has gone through this whole journey with us, has been with us for the last few months watching this all unfold. It’d be fun for them to see Chapter 2 of us actually starting a life together. They deserve to see the next part of this."
