Earlier this month, Gabby Windey announced that she is gay, and is currently dating girlfriend Robby Hoffman.
“I’ve always wanted to live my truth, and my story,” the former “Bachelor” star said on “The View.” “So I’ve been seeing someone for a few months, and I’ve kept it a secret because it’s like a bigger story and a bigger conversation, because I’m dating a girl!”
Now, the “Dancing With the Stars” runner-up is opening up about her love life, hanging out with fans, and admitting she may never date a man again.

The ICU nurse recently opened up about how her story was told through editing on reality television, and how she now wants to tell her story in her own words. “Because of what I’ve been through in the public eye, from ‘The Bachelor’ to ‘The Bachelorette,’ I’ve learned that your story is really told for you through editing, so now I want to be able to tell it myself,” she said according to Glamour. “It’s quite taboo for people to go out today, but there’s a fear about that. And I want to talk about my life openly. That’s how people know me. But I don’t think I realized how good this open feeling was.”
Windey went on to explain how something “sparked” in him after he watched “Perfect Match” on Netflix. On the show, there was an openly bi, lesbian storyline between two contestants, which Windey said “triggered something in her”.
“Something in me could relate, and I thought, Maybe I should explore this,” Windey said. “I’m 32 years old, and I’ve been through a lot, just like everyone else. We all just want to be loved at the end of the day, have a relationship and feel supported. So when I returned to Los Angeles in March after the Dancing With the Stars tour, I went on a date with a woman I met on the app, Raya. I still state on my profile that I’m interested in men and women, but I’m not really seeing men. Everyone knew me as the Bachelorette and dated a few guys, but I knew if this was something that was true for me, I had to go with it.

The former “Bachelor” host went on to tell how she saw the signs from her childhood, but didn’t pay attention until “the whispers got louder”.
“I’ve always felt very emotionally connected to my girlfriends, some of which have ended in very emotional breakups, it feels like how you would in a romantic relationship,” he admits. “And there might be other things that I’m just suppressing or telling myself there’s nothing.”
Windey went on to say, “Sometimes before I go to bed at night, out of nowhere, when I’m completely straight, or whatever, I’ll think, What if I’m gay? and then I’ll be like, Oh, my God, it’s just a thought madness I experienced; it was Freudian.’ But it got louder and louder. It was almost like I was afraid it was happening for some reason.”
