Tayshia Adams, 30, got her happily ever after with Zac Clark, 36, at the end of her journey to find love on The Bachelorette. Zac proposed to Tayshia during the finale, and she happily accepted. HollywoodLife talked EXCLUSIVELY with the couple the day after the finale about what their plans are in the new year and if we should expect a wedding!

“[In] 2021 we’re gonna travel and have fun and be engaged and really just make the most out of life,” Zac told HollywoodLife. “And then we’re gonna see where the chips fall. I think I’m wanting to have a huge wedding, and she’s wanting to run away to an island.”

In the past four months since filming ended, Tayshia and Zac have had to keep their engagement news under wraps. Tayshia revealed how often they saw each other as they awaited the finale and also dealt with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

“As often as we possibly could while still remaining safe,” Tayshia said. “But obviously, like he said, wearing the masks have really helped us fly under the radar if you will. But we’ve seen each other as much as we possibly can. It’s been good.” Right after they got engaged, Tayshia and Zac celebrated Tayshia’s 30th birthday on Sept. 4. “We had a birthday party,” Zac revealed.

Now that they can be open about their engagement, Tayshia has big plans for what she wants to do with Zac. “What we’re going to probably do today is as soon as we’re done other interviews, I want to take him to the beach. I just want to like walk with our toes in the sand. I want to like walk in the mall, even though there’s a lot of people there probably. I just want to be around someone and be like, ‘Yes, this is Zachary, my fiance.’ I want to scream it from the rooftops if I can,” she gushed. Congrats to Tayshia and Zac!
