Still, all eyes are on Perez now, who hasn’t been shy about her newfound love.

The two appear happy, but just what is the truth about their relationship?

From there, the connection was rather instant.

“They were like, ‘We’re talking about you!

It’s so nice to see you so happy.”

He’s been brighter and happier, and everyone is telling him that their connection radiates positivity.

“She’s so lovely.

I’m really happy to have met her,” Flay continued.

He arrived at the 2021 Breeders’ Cup World Championships with her on November 5.

Perez’s personality is bubbly yet down to earth, which complements Flay’s personality.

“She’s teaching me to cook with a lot less meat,” Flay added.

“And now all of a sudden I’m a big hiker.

I’m learning a little of the Zen California way.”
