Peter Weber, best known as “Pilot Pete” from his time as the lead of The Bachelor season 24, and his girlfriend Kelley Flanagan have officially gone their separate ways, yet again. The 24th season of the show was filmed in 2019 and began airing in January 2020. Kelley was a contestant on Peter’s season but was sent home in week seven.
Peter and Kelley rekindled their relationship outside the show and then dated for almost three years. Us Weekly reported that a source has confirmed the split, as well as Peter at an appearance at a beauty convention in Canada. In an Instagram video clip, via @beautybybcanada, an interviewer comments, “Ladies, he’s still single. He’s in Calgary,” to which Peter replied, “I am. First time here.”
With this confirmation, it would appear that Peter isn’t shying away from the truth and that his relationship with Kelley has come to an end yet again. While Peter had a difficult time making what he felt was the right decision on the show, it would seem eventually he was quite happy with Kelley, for a time.
Peter Weber & Kelley Flanagan’s Relationship Timeline
Peter and Kelley had a non-traditional Bachelor experience, to say the least. The pair first ran into each other in a hotel before filming had ever begun. When it was time to meet the women on the show, Peter recognized the attorney as soon as she stepped out of the limo, which led to a great start for the couple. Eventually, though, Kelley was sent home and Peter ended up proposing to Hannah Ann Sluss. Their engagement ended, and he linked back up with runner-up Madi Prewett for a short time as well. However, after all of that Peter ran into Kelley at the Super Bowl in Miami and they reunited there.
After exchanging numbers at the big game, news sources got wind of their relationship in April 2020 and the two became Instagram official shortly after in May. They dated and seemed extremely happy, until in January 2021 Peter revealed on his show, Adventures of Pilot Pete, that the two had gone their separate ways. However, Peter and Kelley were spotted together yet again in Chicago in 2022, and it was confirmed they were back in September of that year. However, it would seem this is the second time now that the couple has broken up. While they haven’t done any Instagram announcements or anything like that, Peter is definitely single and sharing the news.
While there has been speculation that there was some fishy business from the producers on the show during Peter’s season, with them trying to steer him in a different direction from Kelley, the two were able to beat the odds for a little while. Even though they aren’t together now, it is still good they got to be with each other for the time they were, and see if they were truly compatible.
