Claudia vlogged their moving day, and she further discussed how she and Finneas were faring as roommates on the podcast. 

"We really kill it as roommates," Claudia said on the podcast. She went on to say that living together only made their relationship stronger. 

"This whole experience has only confirmed and taught us that we are great at doing everything together, whether it's stressful stuff, whether it's like hanging something on a wall, or having to take some s--t seriously or having to get groceries," Claudia continued. "Whatever it is, I just really enjoy doing things with you than more than I do alone."

"I feel the same exact way," Finneas said. 

Though some of Finneas' most well-regarded songs are about breakups, loneliness, and darkness, it's clear that he's settled in his own personal life.
