Are Becca and Thomas still together after 'Bachelor in Paradise'?

Following their brief breakup during the Season 7 finale, Becca and Thomas rekindled their romance in the real world.

"We came back [home] and had to explore that on our own away from the cameras but in that moment [on the beach during the finale], I think that was game-changing for me," Becca explained during an October 2021 episode of the Talking It Out podcast. "Because I have really never had somebody fight, I would say, like, tooth and nail to want to keep a relationship with me.”

It's unclear when Becca and Thomas started dating again, but they confirmed they were back together via separate Instagram posts after the Season 7 finale aired on Oct. 5, 2021.

While Becca apologized for breaking up with Thomas on national television and promised she would make it up to him for the rest of her life, Thomas shared that the former publicist makes him feel safe.

"As if nothing could ever go terribly wrong... Thank you for being someone who I can put my trust in, someone who would never hurt me, someone who would never push 'us' away," Thomas concluded.
