Juan Pablo Galavis and Nikki Ferrell may be enjoying a peaceful vacation this week, but that did not stop the former ABC star from passing the torch on to the new Bachelor.

"Congrats to the NEW Bachelor @C_Soules…" tweeted Galavis to Chris Soules on Wednesday, "Make YOUR decisions, follow your HEART, and have FUN and ALWAYS stay true to yourself #NotNegotiable".

Galavis certainly wasn't afraid to "stay true" to himself back when he starred on the series, during which he caused quite a stir when he elected to offer Ferrell the "final rose" without a marriage proposal.

While Galavis and Ferrell may not be married, they are certainly enjoying their vacation this week. They've chosen not to disclose the location of their getaway, though Galavis posted a photo on Twitter on Wednesday showing Ferrell's silhouette against a vast sunrise. "Beanos Dias/ Good morning…" he wrote alongside the serene, though vague photo.

With the announcement of a new star for The Bachelor on ABC, Galavis and Ferrell may finally get some of the privacy that they crave, though rumors continue to circulate as to whether or not the couple are looking to tie the knot anytime soon. With Ferrell living in Missouri and Galavis in Florida, they may have to consider a partial or full relocation before tackling the question of marriage.
