As per a recent article by US Weekly, best-selling author, entrepreneur, and media personality Jason Tartick cleared out all dating rumors with Kelley Flanagan, his fellow Bachelor Nation star.
On being asked on Instagram by fans whether he and Flanagan had ever gone on a date on Tuesday, June 24, Jason Tartick explained that Flanagan is an amazing person and they have never gone on a date.
"I can't say enough good things about Kelley, she is an awesome person. She’s incredible. But we’ve only been friends, we’ve only ever been friends, and no, we haven’t gone on a date,” Tartick explained on his Instagram story.
Jason Tartick also addressed the fact that it becomes difficult for celebrities when fans start making speculations without any solid facts.
“When people are … speculating about it, what do you do?” Tartick said. “Like, do you come out and be, like, ‘No, speculation is wrong?’ You kind of, just, whatever, let it go. Kelley’s the best, but no, we’ve only been friends.”
According to US Weekly, just two months ago, Kelley Flanagan told the publication in an interview that she and Jason Tartick shared a great bond and "have always gotten along well."
"I love Jason. Jason is amazing. We get along. I actually work with [Jason’s] agency and I am great friends with the people that we work with,” Flanagan told the publication at an event organized in New York City on April 22.
Jason Tartick was previously linked to TikTok influencer Kat Sickler, with whom he split in October 2024. Flanagan, on the other hand, had expressed the desire to steer away from dating after the cheating scandal involving her ex-boyfriend Aris Raptis in November 2024.
