In the snap, 23-year-old Sluss is seen cozying up to a man in a Tennessee bar with some fans noting Dobbs, 25, in the comments.

On Tuesday, Sluss came face-to-face with Weber for the first time since breaking off their engagement. His lingering feelings for fellow finalist Madison Prewett led to the split.
“If you want to be with a woman, you need to become a real man,” Sluss told Weber.
Weber has since confirmed he and Prewett, 23, will no longer pursue a relationship.
As for Dobbs, he was selected in the fourth round of the 2017 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers after four years at Tennessee, Sluss’ home state. Last September, he was traded to the Jaguars in exchange for a fifth-round 2020 NFL Draft pick.
The Oscar winner, 63, shared an update and new photo amid concern about their health after the couple announced Wednesday that they tested positive amid the coronavirus pandemic. They have been in “hospital isolation” at the Gold Coast University Hospital in Queensland, Australia, where he had been filming an Elvis Presley biopic.
“Hanx” wrote that he and Wilson “want to thank everyone here Down Under who are taking such good care of us. We have COVID-19 and are in isolation so we do not spread it to anyone else. There are those for whom it could lead to a very serious illness.”
As for them, they are, “taking it one day at a time.”
He went on to say, “there are things we can all do to get through,” citing “following the advice of experts” and “taking care of ourselves and each other.”
He ended the post with a line borrowed from his film A League of Their Own, writing, “Remember, despite all the current events, there is no crying in baseball.”
The photo of the couple showed them up and dressed in casual wear, including baseball caps — not in hospital gowns.
Like his initial social media post explaining they had tested positive for the coronavirus, it was flooded with positive comments, including many from celebrities. Sharon Stone wrote, “It’s hard to be the example all of the time you guys! My heart, friendship, and compassion r w you.” Gwen Stefani wrote, “Love u both.” Sophie Turner sent a spray of hearts.
Wilson also kept it light, saying on Twitter that the only Corona she wants from now on is the beer.
From here on out, the only Corona I want is from Mexico and you drink it.
Yesterday, the children of Hanks and Wilson shared updates about their parents with Colin Hanks saying, “They will make a full recovery.” Elizabeth Hanks and Chet Hanks also shared hopeful messages. (Colin and Elizabeth are from Hanks’s first marriage; Chet and Truman are the couple’s children together.)
Hanks has Type 2 diabetes, something first shared in 2013. People over 60 and those with chronic medical conditions — including diabetes — are at a higher risk of experiencing complications and getting very sick from the coronavirus.
The actor has been in Australia for the pre-production of Baz Luhrmann’s untitled Elvis Presley film, which will see Hanks playing Presley’s manager, Colonel Tom Parker. Warner Bros. said it was “working closely with the appropriate Australian health agencies to identify and contact anyone who may have come in direct contact with” Hanks related to the production.
Wilson — a musician in addition to actor — played gigs at the Sydney Opera House and in Brisbane. So those venues were also tracking the hundreds of people who may have been in contact with the couple.
The couple also visited busy Bondi Beach over the weekend. Just days later, Hanks said, “We felt a bit tired, like we had colds, and some body aches. Rita had some chills that came and went. Slight fevers too. To play things right, as is needed in the world right now, we were tested for the Coronavirus, and were found to be positive.”
It's been almost as eventful a post-"Bachelor" week than that ridiculous two-night, four-hour season finale that saw Peter Weber show just how wishy-washy he can be, and his mother Barb become the breakout star -- albeit villain -- of the season.
It turns out the woman, who said live on national television that all of Peter's friends and family knew a relationship wouldn't work with his "final girl" choice, Madison Prewett, was right. Barb took a lot of heat for saying this relationship wouldn't last before giving it a chance, but she was definitely right ... and quicker than anyone could have guessed.
Just two days after the explosive finale that saw Peter propose to Hannah Ann Sluss and then break up with her becuase he couldn't "give his whole heart" to her (because he was still hung up on both former "Bachelorette" Hannah Brown and Madison) and then have Chris Harrison fly Madison out for "After the Rose" where the couple(?) fought with Peter's family and decided to take it one day at a time.
One day.
Two days.
That's all she wrote. Well, not really. Actually, Madison had plenty to write on Thursday night as she (hopefully) brought this whole messy, messy saga to an end. Seriously, we need all of these people to just go away and stay away.
Except for Hannah Ann. Her, we like.
"I have learned the importance of acceptance, forgiveness, and grace," Madison said of her time affiliated with "The Bachelor" franchise. "As Peter and I have decided to go our separate ways, I am confident that we will both move in the direction of our purpose and never forget that God has a plan in all things."
"I will always love and respect him," she continued, referring to Peter. "I am convinced our paths were meant to cross and we are both better because they did."
Peter also posted a statement via his Instagram page, where he said that he "learned so many lessons" from the women who were a part of his season.
Speaking directly to Madison, he wrote, "Thank you for your patience and unconditional love. You’re the epitome of a woman who carries herself with grace, stands by what she believes in, and loves whole heartedly. That love is something I feel so grateful to have felt and will take a piece of that with me always going forward."
Basically, it sounds like the past two days were a continuation of the long conversation they had in Australia while Barb waited (heatedly) inside with Peter's family to finally meet Madison. The reality is that Peter and Madison were not only on two separate pages with their lifestyles and morals and beliefs, they were likely in two different books.
Peter then shared some words for the woman he jilted so bad, Hannah Ann, telling her he takes full responsibility for the failings in their short engagement and telling her, "you set an example for women everywhere a couple nights ago. You are such a strong, confident woman and you deserve all the love in the world."
Hannah Ann was mum when asked on "Ellen" this week whether or not she thought Peter and Madison could possibly make it, which kind of seemed to say it all. You can check out her talking about it with guest host Sean Hayes below, and then keep bugging ABC to make her the next-next "Bachelorette":

"There are those for whom it could lead to a very serious illness. We are taking it one-day-at-a-time. There are things we can all do to get through this by following the advice of experts and taking care of ourselves and each other, no?"
Just a day earlier, the couple posted that they tested positive after exhibiting symptoms like tiredness, body aches, chills and slight fevers.
"Not much more to it than a one-day-at-a-time approach, no?" he wrote Wednesday.
Warner Bros. confirmed the actor was in Australia doing pre-production work on a film about singer Elvis Presley. Hanks is set to play Presley's manager, Colonel Tom Parker, in the film. Actor Austin Butler is playing Presley.
There are more than 120 confirmed cases of coronavirus in Australia, the World Health Organization said. Prime Minister Scott Morrison's government announced a $11.4 billion economic plan to support the country's economy during the epidemic.
The couple's diagnosisforced Australia's Nine Network to set up a crisis response plan after Wilson visited the channel's morning talk show for an appearance Monday. The show airs on CNN's affiliated Nine Network.
Nine Network said staff on the show will be quarantined after coming into "prolonged contact" with the singer and actress.
The famed Sydney Opera House said Wilson performed there Saturday for about 200 people, including her husband. The Opera House got disinfected, and will reach out to people who may have been in contact with the couple.

[Spoiler alert: The Bachelor Season 24.] On March 10, ABC aired The Bachelor Season 24 finale. And as promised by host Chris Harrison, it was truly the most dramatic ending yet. The live episode wrapped in an uncomfortable silence after Peter Weber chose Madison Prewett over Hannah Ann Sluss and the Weber family publicly voiced their disapproval of the bachelor’s final choice. The couple said they were in love and wanted to take their relationship one day at a time. Now, two days later, Prewett and Weber revealed they are no longer together, announcing their breakup on Instagram.
Peter Weber announces his split with Madison Prewett on Instagram
The Bachelor fans have been waiting to hear from Prewett and Weber since they left the After the Final Rose taping on March 10. Unlike most couples within the franchise, Prewett and Weber did not make the media rounds. So when the 28-year-old pilot finally addressed Bachelor Nation fans after the show wrapped, everyone was shocked.
At around 9 p.m. PST on March 12, Weber posted about his breakup with Prewett on Instagram. He kicked off the post by thanking his Bachelor cast.
“I want to start by acknowledging the incredible group of women that I had the privilege of getting to know this season,” Weber wrote. “Thank you for coming on this journey with me. I learned so many lessons from all of you that I will carry with me.”
Pilot Pete followed with a thank you note to Prewett. “Madi, thank you for your patience and unconditional love,” he wrote. “You’re the epitome of a woman who carries herself with grace, stands by what she believes in, and loves whole heartedly. That love is something I feel so grateful to have felt and will take a piece of that with me always going forward.”

Then Weber dropped the news of his split with Prewett, explaining why they landed on the decision. “Madi and I have mutually decided to not pursue our relationship any further,” Weber wrote. “Believe me this was not easy for either of us to be ok with, but after a lot of honest conversations, we have agreed that this is what makes most sense for the two of us. The love and respect I have for Madi will continue to endure.”
The bachelor also thanked Sluss while simultaneously taking the blame for their breakup. “Hannah Ann, you set an example for women everywhere a couple nights ago,” he wrote. “You are such a strong, confident woman and you deserve all the love in the world. I accept full responsibility for my mistakes in our relationship and wish you only the best.”
Weber concluded his statement by thanking his friends and family. “This has been an emotional experience and I am so grateful for the outreach of support that I have received from friends, family, and Bachelor Nation in the last few days,” he wrote. “Thank you to all of you! This is just a another chapter in my story. One I will never forget and one I will always cherish.”
Madison Prewett posts about her breakup with Peter Weber on Instagram
Meanwhile, Prewett addressed her breakup with Weber on her own Instagram account. And like the bachelor, the Auburn alum was thankful for the journey and looked forward to the future.
“So incredibly thankful for this amazing journey I’ve had the honor of being a part of,” Prewett said. “I have grown so much and am stronger than I was going in. I have learned the importance of acceptance, forgiveness, and grace.”
She continued: “As Peter and I have decided to go our separate ways, I am confident that we will both move in the direction of our purpose and never forget that God has a plan in all things. I will always love and respect him. I am convinced our paths were meant to cross and we are both better because they did. @pilot_pete you are an amazing guy and I’m thankful for you. I will always be your biggest fan.”
Then Prewett ended her statement by giving The Bachelor team a brief shout-out. “And to the amazing women I met this season, I will love you for life,” she said. “Thank you @abcnetwork for allowing me to embark on this journey. “
During The Bachelor finale, it was clear Prewett and Weber had a challenge ahead of them if they wanted to be together. On the evening of March 11, Harrison told Entertainment Tonight Weber wanted to work towards piecing his life back together, including “his relationship with Madison, his relationship with his family.” He also suggested that Weber “take a break, unplug, get away” because “this too shall pass.”
Now with Prewett and Weber’s breakup announcement on Instagram, hopefully the bachelor is able to mend all the relationships within his life and move forward.
