Kat Izzo and Dale Moss are still going strong after Bachelor in Paradise season 10, but they haven’t gotten engaged yet, despite recent rumors.
“OK FIRST OF ALL,” Kat, 29, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Tuesday, November 4, over a screenshot of a Facebook post with a headline claiming that she and Dale, 37, are “engaged after five months of dating.” The post came with an AI-generated or Photoshopped image of Kat smiling beside Dale and holding up her hand to show off a diamond ring.
“I WOULD NEVER DO A SQUARE NAIL bye,” Kat added, referring to the nails on the hand in the photo.
Dale previously said on “The Viall Files” podcast in September that he and Kat weren’t having any “engagement talks” yet.
Kat Izzo and Dale Moss fell in love during Bachelor in Paradise season 10 after respective broken engagements within the franchise. Kat was briefly engaged to John Henry Spurlock after meeting during BiP season 9, while Dale proposed to Clare Crawley after her season of The Bachelorette years earlier in 2020. (The pair later dated […]
“I think, like, you have the show and we built the foundation there. When we talk about after the show [ended] in June, it was still a deep exploration phase for both of us,” he said. “We had many conversations, things that sprung up with both of us [and] weren’t created by the other partner. Now, moving forward, we’re just in a very, very strong place.”
The couple also said they introduced one another to their families and pets.
“He has a relationship with my cat 1762369516. That’s my baby,” Kat shared. “That matters a lot.”
Kat and Dale connected early on in BiP season 10, which aired from July to September.

“There’s a physical connection between me and Dale, obviously,” Kat said during the premiere. “He’s really hot. He’s such a gentleman, helped me with my shoes [and] helped me on the little boat. I feel like I’m gonna be ‘baby girl’d’ and we love a man who takes charge and has chivalry.”
Though Dale initially kept his options open by exploring romances with Alli Jo Hinkes and Allyshia Gupta, he later told Kat that he was done playing the field and made it known to the other contestants that she was his top choice.
As the season progressed, Allyshia, 30, claimed during an August episode of “Viall Files” that Kat had snuck in an iPad to communicate with an offscreen boyfriend during BiP. However, Kat denied the allegations during her and Dale’s appearance on the podcast after the season finale.
“When it comes to being in a relationship, I did not come in with a boyfriend,” she said. “Was I dating before Paradise? Of course, I wasn’t going to stop my life, [and] I didn’t even know if I wanted to do the show. … I came into Paradise saying, ‘This is going to help me figure out what it is that I needed to do.’”

Kat added, “I did not have an iPad during filming, I did not have a laptop. I think if I had those devices or messages on my arms other than my tattoos … that would have been shown. I don’t think [producers] were afraid of that. So, no, there was no communication to the outside world through any device.”
Though Kat and Dale were eliminated just before the finale, they continued their relationship after season 10.
“And we’re just getting started …🤍,” the couple captioned photos and videos from throughout their relationship on Instagram.
Prior to her relationship with Dale, Kat was briefly engaged to BiP season 9’s John Henry Spurlock in 2023. Meanwhile, Dale was previously engaged to Clare Crawley in 2020 after her season of The Bachelorette.
