A source says Higgins knew very early on in the show who he would choose to be his future fiancee, and "instantly felt a connection" with her. Now, The Bachelor star is "constantly texting and calling" his wife-to-be, and ET's source says she "runs the roost" in their relationship. Since getting engaged, the two have met up several times for secret weekend dates.

On Tuesday's Good Morning America, Higgins made the news public. "I am engaged," he announced. "I haven't said that in an interview yet!"

The 27-year-old reality star admitted that it's been hard to keep his engagement a secret as the show unfolds. "You don't know how much stress and weight that is to carry on you for so long."
