Eight years after appearing on The Bachelor, Courtney Robertson has walked down the aisle.

Wedded bliss: Bachelor alum Courtney Robertson, 37, married her fiance Humberto Preciado, in an intimate ceremony on Friday. The pair who met on social media, tied the knot in Sedona, Arizona and share a four-month-old son together

The pair who met on social media have been engaged since December 2019, and share a four-month old son, Joaquin Ramon. 

Robertson shared, ‘When I met Humberto, it was a no-brainer…I know this is meant to be.’

She met Preciado, an attorney, after he liked some of her Instagram photos, which prompted her to message him on the app. 

After chatting back and forth, the two went out a few days later, eventually announcing their pregnancy and then engagement in December 2019.   

‘Even on our first date, I knew there was something special about him, because I wanted to see him the next day,’ she said.

‘We got serious pretty quickly. He made it known that he really wanted a family. Getting pregnant was something we had discussed. It wasn’t a total shock,’ she shared. 

Planning a wedding while pregnant during a pandemic is no easy feat, as Robertson said it was, ‘definitely stressful.’

‘We initially had a much bigger wedding and because of COVID-19, we scaled it way back. It feels really good to just have our nearest and dearest with us to celebrate. Sweet and simple!,’ she said. 

The two wed in an outdoor ceremony, surrounded only by immediate family. The day before the wedding, Courtney was treated to a relaxing spa day at the Montelucia Resort and Spa.

Robertson shot to notieriety on Season 16 of the hit show as a ‘villain.’ 

The model won a proposal from Ben Flajnik in  2012, but the two split shortly thereafter. 

Speaking about her now partner, Courtney revealed, ‘I was giving up on dating. But I’m so glad I waited.’

She continued, ‘Humberto feels like home to me. And I know I finally met the right one,’ adding, ‘he’s been everything I ever dreamt of.’
