'Bachelor' and Tessa: still going strong

If you had any doubts, Lt. Andy Baldwin — of ABC's "The Bachelor" fame — wants you to believe otherwise.

Yes, the Pearl Harbor-based naval doctor and Tessa Horst, the last woman standing on last season's finale, are still together.

The couple at the Audi Best Buddies Challenge Charity Bike Race earlier this month.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Here's the couple with legendary actor/director Clint Eastwood.

Baldwin and Horst joined a bevy of celebs — including Lacey Chabert of "Mean Girls," Marla Maples of "The Ex-Wives Club," Rob Lowe of "Brothers and Sisters" and California govenor Arnold Schwarzenegger and his wife Maria Shriver — at the Sept. 8 charity event.

The 100-mile bike ride along the picturesque Pacific Coast Highway supported Best Buddies International, a nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the lives of people with intellectual disabilities by providing opportunities for one-to-one friendships and integrated employment.

Go, Andy!

"I'm sorry Lt. Smith, the doctor can't see you today. He's got a celebrity shoot this morning at ten, then he has a scheduled pose-down for the rest of the afternoon. Just take two asprin and hold a sterile compress against the bleeding. I know those roadside bombs can be painful."

I'm surprised that they're still going out. Unfortunately, I would put money down that they won't make it to the alter. It's the curse of the Bachelor. I still get this vibe that Tessa didn't want to get married.

Hoping all continues to go well with Andy and Tessa. They are such a lovely couple.
Today In Touch magazine has come out with another negative article saying that they broke up on Monday, Sept. 10th due to the publicity of Andy and Miss Iran last Sunday in L.A.
Catherine, if there is any way you could check this out - their fans would appreciate it.

What's your problem? They are still together whether you believe it or not.They would have issue a statement by now if they had broken up, you know, these two are very sincere, they reported when they broke their engagement so stop jumping from one board to another spreading false stories about this couple and oh! for your source intouch, check their track records! they want to sell more mags. Get a life!!!!!!!!!

Comment from: Guest from mainland [Visitor]
It appears that Andy and Tessa have only gotten together since the 'de-engagement' for triathlon type events - which is of course one of Andy's main interests.

Tessa's move to Hawaii never took place. Was the news of Andy's deployments - a contocted story - made to appear valid by his mother's words?

In the meantime, pictures of Andy showing affections to another woman were splashed across the press - especially so on the mainland. And to top it all, nothing has been said by the couple themselves.

Pretty difficult at this time to believe these two people have feelings enough to even say they are dating.

Sounds like the Andy loves Tessa message board all agreed to come and comment. Anybody who thinks these two are still together needs to have that hole in his head looked at. Unfortunately, Dandy, the gay blade, never found a woman who could interest him more than a camera or a celebrity. Is this dude really a Navy doctor? The Navy will need to do major image improvement after all the damage this model wannabe has done.

Hmmm.....Well if you call showing up at the same events and getting your picture taken a relationship, I guess you could say they are still together. The word on the street is that Tessa only shows up because she is still worried about the $5M she could be sued for because of spilling the beans.
Permalink 09/18/07 @ 23:30
Comment from: maame [Visitor]
All Doubters,
That is a lie, Tessa doesn't show up b'cos of $5M whatever, you doubters want more scoop from this couple so all you do is to fabricate stories.

Yes, they met on public forum but that does not mean they have to report to you everything that they do in their private lives. Do you report yours to the world? I wonder if you even have boyfriends, that explains why you are leaving your fantasy life through them. Stop bashing them and leave them alone to make this wonderful love relationship work.
"Believe" from Andy summarises everything, they are together, whether you believe it or not! For once, people should be happy when pple find true love.

Take a quick shower.

when I look at these "happy" photos of Andy & Tessa I cannot believe they have split. I saw on Andy"s website date Oct 1st, an "insider" sent an emal saying that they have separated, have utmost respect and love each other. The split was not because of Miss Iran or someone else, there were no other details. I wonder if this is true because if i remembered when Andy made a statement that their engagement ended, this same "insider" sent a message saying that they were planning a wedding. If Andy could make a statement like he previously did with their engagement that would be wonderful for his fans.

Dear Fan,
Don't worry, everything is well with them privately, still together. Go to Andy's official myspace site and check his status" in a relationship" so just breath! Yeah, Jimmy Kimmel and co. will not recognised them as couple b'cos they broke their T.V engagement. Good for them, things are getting better and better every single day for these two, you will hear something good from them pretty soon but you know, it's good for our couple to remain private. (I am not an insider though).

Don't read those boards and mags too much, it's not good for your health!!!!!!

I have every confident that ANDY AND TESSA are still together and very much in love you should watch the video on Andy's website as a commencement speaker at the Remington College Graduation in Hawaii in August 2007 he begins his speech about his GIRL TESSA, watch it then decide. I did not know he was a very good speaker this guy is amazing he can do anything. GOOD LUCK ANDY/TESSA DON'T LISTEN TO ANYONE JUST CONCENTRATE ON LOVING EACH OTHER YOU WILL MAKE IT. GOD BLESS....

Thanks Rejoice its true and also notice per Andy's request to put back the video "CRAZY ABOUT THIS GIRL" as he watches it everyday I also do, so stop speculating about their relationship and we should be happy and pray for them so they can make it because they deserve it I have never seen any couple that love and respect one another like they do.
Also watch the video on his commencement speech in Remington College/HAWAII. ANDY AND TESSA ROCKS......

ANDESSA FANS: I received an email from Catherine today and she said they are covering the Ironman/Kona tomorrow Saturday Oct 13 because of Andy Baldwin/Hawaiian resident/Navy officer/Pearl Harbor and this will be his last Ironman and he is being deployed to the Persian Gulf in January 2008 but did not know whether Andy and Tessa are still together, however I opened his website andybaldwin.com under Myspace I was playing videos taken by Mitch Thrower/Triathlete Magazine/Online Videos by Veoh.com and "Play Inside Ironman pt. 37 Underpants" play it slowly and I saw Andy walking and I am sure its Tessa with him I am 100% positive. If any of you will play this video tonight please confirm that it is TESSA. I hope this helps I know they are still together.... Thank you

Andy and Tessa are still connected with their love and their everlasting memories and time together while each have to survive the parting because of Naval Doctors responsibility. They choose to set each other free and they don't have to please the rest of us. Hurry home Andy, Tessa will be around.

searched for the video about the Kona triathlon but it did not seem like it was Tessa beside Andy. I could be wrong. But the Tessa we all know has her back straight, head held high (though she may not have been playing celebrity this time), and always sporting a smile. This one is the exact opposite. But because I am a big fan and let's say, affected, too, of the way the relationship took a turn,I was just hoping, very much hoping, that it is Tessa.
