The former Bachelorette star told People that their friends and family knew about their relationship before they went public last month, adding, “It’s just nice being open about it and just being able to be ourselves and celebrate our relationship.”
“We were so excited in private, and now it’s like we all just want an excuse to celebrate and be happy, so we got to be in public and be able to be proud about it,” she continued.
Windey, who was previously engaged to Bachelorette co-star Erich Schwer, revealed her relationship with Hoffman at the beginning of August, saying she wants to “live my truth.” Windey has said of Hoffman, “She’s hilarious and has such a presence.”
