A few days after the first flirtatious exchange occurred on social media, Gabby addressed the topic, admitting at the time the two were just friends and they were “stirring the pot.” A few days after, the “Bachelorette” star then stated she would be open to going on a date with the “Jersey Shore” cast member.

And last night at the People's Choice Awards red carpet, the 31-year-old was asked if dating the "Jersey Shore" star is still on the table. To which Gabby responded, "I think it's a possibility, I don't know we will all have to wait and see."

The "Dancing With the Stars" runner-up continued to joke and said "Gabby, tan, laundry," as a reference to the famous "Gym, tan, laundry," catchphrase from the "Jersey Shore."

After fans began to speculate Gabby and Erich had broken up as the "Bachelorette" star was spotted without her engagement ring, the 31-year-old confirmed the split  during an episode of “Dancing With the Stars,” after her partner, Val Chmerkovskiy, revealed they would be dancing a waltz routine to Des’ree’s “I Am Kissing You.”

“For me, it holds a special place because I did just go through a breakup,” Gabby told Val. “The end of our relationship happened because we weren’t completely in step and in sync with each other on our common goals or just the way we approach life. We weren’t each other’s best match.”

Erich also spoke out on the breakup, taking to his Instagram Story, “A lot of you are reaching out with questions about me and Gabby. The reality i that we ultimately were not each others people – it’s hard when there isn’t one thing to put your finger on.”

“We met in a very unique situation and in a very unique way and I’m grateful we did. I would never take it back,” Erich continued. “Gabby is an amazing person and she is doing amazing things. I will always root for her and I hope she gives them hell in the DWTS finale.”
