They both went on reality TV looking for love and while things didn’t work out for them on screen, Claudia Hoskins and Quinn Ryan confirm to Woman’s Day that they’ve found a rewarding romance in each other’s arms.
Auckland assistant fashion buyer Claudia – who was one of Zac Franich’s final three on The Bachelor NZ in 2017 – cheekily slid into Hawke’s Bay-based Quinn’s DMs after seeing a cute post on Instagram.
They hit it off online and a week later, the engineer – who also made the top three in this year’s The Bachelorette NZ with Lily McManus – found himself in the City of Sails and they met for drinks.
Four months on, they’re finding every possible opportunity to be together, despite living in different parts of the country.
“We’ve hit the jackpot with what we have,” says Claudia, 25. “Being apart seems to be getting harder. I’ve already planned to be with him every weekend for the next two months.”
Smiling, Quinn echoes, “I enjoy being with her. I’m a little bit smitten.”
The pair have just been on a nine-day jetboating tour of South Island rivers, spending nights camping in a tent that straddles the roof of 26-year-old Quinn’s ute.
He tells us, “I like that Claudia wants to do adventurous stuff with me. Jetboating is an adrenaline rush. I get a buzz out of it and Claudia hangs on to me like a possum when I’m driving.”
