What Grant & Juliana’s Date Means For Relationship After The Bachelor

Grant & Juliana's Relationship Is Still In The Public Eye

After The Bachelor season 29, it'll be important for Grant and Juliana to experience their relationship in the real world after the fantasy of the show, and then having to hide it for months while the episodes aired. Their first dinner date could've been a private moment, but Grant chose to post about it, continuing to make their relationship public. However, it must be important to him to prove to viewers that he and Juliana are happy, especially after he appeared to be so torn between her and Litia up until the very last moments before he proposed.

Grant & Juliana Are Still Getting To Know Each Other

Due to the incredibly fast timeline of The Bachelor, Grant and Juliana are still getting to know each other, even though they're engaged. Some Bachelor Nation couples have described the experience as dating in reverse, beginning with an engagement, and then slowing things down as they navigate their relationship outside of the bubble of the show. It's beautiful to see that Grant and Juliana are still happy and in love after the finale, and that they're now able to come out of hiding and bring their relationship into the real world.

 

The Bachelor gets a bad wrap, but Grant and Juliana are now the third successful couple in a row to come out of the show, after Zach Shallcross and Kaity Biggar, and Joey Graziadei and Kelsey Anderson. The fourth couple from The Bachelor that is still together is Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici, who've been happily married for over 10 years. Hopefully, Grant and Juliana's love will last, and this is the first of a lifetime of dinner dates for them.
