Tyler and Hannah have remained in touch, both on a professional and personal level, after he finished as the runner-up on her The Bachelorette season in 2019, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to be a guest at her wedding to fiance Adam Woolard.

“No, [I’m not going],” Tyler, 31, told Us Weekly at CMA Fest on Saturday, June 8.
In fact, Tyler admitted that he’s not even holding out hope for a wedding invitation.
“I mean that with all due respect to her and her man, like, I’m not going to get an invite, and I hope I don’t get an invite,” Tyler said.
“It should be about them. It should not be about anyone else. It’s a special day for two special people, and they’re going to have an amazing wedding.”
Tyler concluded, “I don’t need to be there. I would need to be there cheering them on from the sidelines — like way back in Jupiter, [Florida].”
Hannah and Adam got engaged in August 2023, and they’ve been slowly planning their nuptials ever since.
“We’re in the beginning stages, for sure,” Hannah told the magazine in February.
“[We] have a wedding planner, but that is about it… [It’s] been a very busy season and we’ve really been just focusing on our relationship and preparing for a marriage, not a wedding, but the wedding planning will definitely ramp up here soon.”
Tyler, meanwhile, is rumored to be dating Tate Madden, who briefly appeared on his Going Home with Tyler Cameron reality series on Amazon.
Hannah also appeared on Going Home as an interior designer and decorator, and the former The Bachelorette star recently revealed what Adam thought when she had decided to reunite with Tyler for his show.
When asked how Adam felt about Hannah being so close to Tyler again, Hannah laughed and replied, “Ummm,” during a late April episode of “The Ben and Ashley I: Almost Famous Podcast, which is co-hosted by Ben Higgins and Ashley Iaconetti.
“We know where we’re at in our relationship, and that season of life, I feel really like it’s over,” Hannah said of her past with Tyler.

Hannah went on to reveal, however, that she and Adam weren’t engaged at the time she taped Tyler’s show.
“But we had decided, ‘We’re in it together. This is my life partner,'” Hannah recalled.
“So he trusted me and was excited for me to be able to have this opportunity to do a passion of mine, and yeah! So he’s cool. He’s supportive of me… Yeah, I think I answered that.”
Hannah apparently saw Going Home with Tyler Cameron as a great opportunity she didn’t want to pass on.
“It was a way where we were really able to move on and support each other in our own ventures but also be able to showcase something I’m really passionate about, and he gave me the opportunity to do that,” Hannah said of Tyler.
“So I was like, ‘This will be fun!’ It was great to be in Florida for a few days and to be able to work with the clients, they were awesome. It was actually a really great time and I had a lot of fun.”
On The Bachelorette’s fifteenth season, Hannah chose aspiring country singer Jed Wyatt over Tyler.
Tyler previously admitted he cried in a bathtub and felt crushed by the breakup, but Hannah abruptly called off her engagement to Jed — about a month after he had popped the question in Greece — because Jed allegedly had a girlfriend back home while he filmed The Bachelorette.
Hannah realized she still had feelings for Tyler once her engagement ended, and so she asked him on a date on The Bachelorette: After the Final Rose in July 2019, but their relationship never really surpassed the friend zone.
When Hannah and Tyler reunited due to the passing of Tyler’s beloved mother Andrea Cameron and then quarantined together during the coronavirus pandemic in 2020, it also wasn’t great timing for the pair to become romantically involved, according to the former Alabama beauty queen.

Hannah also gave her relationship with her The Bachelorette third-place finisher, Peter Weber, another shot.
Hannah briefly appeared on Peter’s The Bachelor season and made it known that she had lingering feelings for him. Peter nearly quit the show to date Hannah, but he didn’t think that would be fair to his bachelorettes.
Hannah later revealed she and Peter had slept together while The Bachelor’s 24th season was airing in February 2020 after they both attended Hannah Godwin and Dylan Barbour’s engagement party in Los Angeles.
Hannah wrote in her memoir, God Bless This Mess: Learning to Live and Love Through Life’s Best (and Worst) Moments — which was released in November 2021 — that the sexual encounter, which had taken place in the California home of Peter’s parents, “just sucked” and it was “a poor decision” on her part.
“I just have compassion for that time in my life — for myself, for him, and for everyone involved,” Hannah told Ashley and Ben on their podcast.
While Hannah seemingly ended things with Peter after their awkward hookup, Hannah has suggested in many interviews that Tyler broke her heart.
Hannah recalled receiving mixed signals and navigating a confusing relationship with Tyler from 2019-2020 in her first memoir.
Not only did Hannah write that she felt like Tyler’s “backup player who never got to play in the game,” but she also said their relationship “wasn’t some game” to her and he “broke” her heart when he began dating supermodel Gigi Hadid shortly after The Bachelorette 15 wrapped on TV.
And Hannah claimed Tyler’s last text to her after their quarantine session was, “Well… if you rock with me, you rock with me. If you don’t, you don’t.”
But Tyler noted on “The Bellas Podcast” once Hannah’s book was released in late 2021, “I’ve got receipts, too!”
Tyler has since been romantically linked to beautiful women such as Stassie Karanikolaou, Juliette Porter, Jilissa Ann Zoltko, Camila Kendra, and Paige Lorenze.
Tyler — who finished as the runner-up on Fox’s The Real Dirty Dancing last year and also competed on Season 2 of the network’s Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test reality competition — said he fell in love with Camila, but she allegedly dumped him in August 2021 after eight months of dating.
Since Hannah is now off the market, Tyler has said in the media how he thinks it’s “awesome” the former Dancing with the Stars and Special Forces winner is going to be getting married and “it all worked out” for them both.
