Colton Underwood is set to get married.

Less than a year after he came out to the world, Colton Underwood is engaged. The alum of The Bachelor is engaged to Jordan C. Brown who he has been seeing for some time now. Underwood told People magazine that the two got engaged in Big Sur after his birthday.

"I'm extremely happy! 2021 was the most transformative year of my life," he said. "Starting 2022 off with my best friend, teammate and now fiance is something I never thought was going to be possible."

The two have been dating since last summer. They reportedly have also bought a house together.

Underwood came to fame on The Bachelor after playing in the NFL. He made his national name as the so-called "Virgin Bachelor." After his time on the series, which he appeared on in three different series, Underwood was involved in a nasty breakup that saw him served with a protective order for stalking his ex-girlfriend.

Since coming out in 2021, Underwood has been the subject of the Netflix docuseries Coming Out Colton. He's set to make his return to television with CBS's new competition series Beyond the Edge.

"The only time in my life I'm ok with wasting a bottle of champagne," Brown wrote to Instagram of the announcement. "I love you babe." Brown is a political strategist. He's worked on and advised campaigns for John Kerry, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton .
