Just one day after The Bachelor couple made an appearance together on After the Final Rose, Nick and Vanessa enjoyed a double-date dinner with Season 20 Bachelor Ben Higgins and his fiancee Lauren Bushnell, E! News reported.

Tuesday night, the foursome was spotted at Republique in Los Angeles, CA, together and posed for a fan photo inside the restaurant.

Nick was wearing dark jeans and a blue button-down shirt, while Vanessa kept things cute and casual in ripped jeans, a long-sleeve ivory shirt, and a black leather jacket.

Earlier that day, Vanessa and Nick also allegedly hung out with the franchise's famous blonde twins, Haley Ferguson and Emily Ferguson, who appeared on Bachelor in Paradise last summer and are set to star on their own reality TV spinoff The Twins: Happily Ever After? on Freeform.

Nick and Vanessa made time for the former software salesman's friends despite busy schedules following The Bachelor's Season 21 finale Monday night. Nick has begun rehearsing with pro partner Peta Murgatroyd for Season 24 of Dancing with the Stars while launching his own line of grooming products called The Polished Gent.

Vanessa recently partnered with Tempt Brands for a fashion campaign, according to E! News, and talked about starting a charity in the United States for people with special needs. Vanessa, a special education teacher from Montreal, Canada, said she wanted to take a piece of home with her to America.

The couple has already faced scrutiny they didn't look happy together on After the Final Rose, but Nick and Vanessa insist they will work through their issues as a team.

"In any relationship you have the fear that it might not work out," Vanessa, 29, told the website. "The great thing we have is the openness and the communication and the willingness to understand each other."

Nick, 36, added, "We're not going to compare ourselves to the ones that have been most successful and we're not going to compare ourselves to the ones that lasted a very short amount of time. We'll see what happens and we're very optimistic."

Nick selected Vanessa and dumped his runner-up, Raven Gates, in Finland on The Bachelor finale, which filmed in November 2016. Nick and Vanessa have revealed they are not discussing wedding plans yet, as they need to walk in their relationship before they can run.
