This picture of Hydrogen is 𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒚 wrong (Bohr model) • If an e⁻ were to orbit the nucleus, then the e⁻ would be accelerating • We know that accelerating charges radiate light ⇒ The e⁻ would continuously lose energy and spiral into the nucleus in a prompt 1.6×10⁻¹¹ spic.twitter.com/wGozwWUDED

Where does the Coulomb interaction comes from?

from the fact that you have two charged particles, the electron and the proton

That interaction is only well defined via QFT. How it understood within QM? Classically?

it's perfectly well defined in the nonrelativistic limit.. you can derive it in QFT, which you can't in QM, but you just add it to the hamiltonian just like every other potential
