Gabby Windey is letting it all out!

The 'Bachelorette' alumna and very recent "Dancing With The Stars" second place winner took to social media to reflect on the two big losses she has experienced this year.

Bachelor Nation saw the 31-year-old have her heart broken on national television during Clayton Echard's season of "The Bachelor," and would later experience the second round of heartbreak after her joint season of "The Bachelorette" with Rachel Recchia. Windey would get engaged to her final pick, Erich Schwer before the duo would split up a short time later.

Windey mentions the massive amount of loss she endured in 2022 in her latest TikTok.

Before we take a look at the clip, let's look back at Windey's whirlwind year!

Break-Ups And Broken Hearts: Looking Back On Windey's Reality TV Heartbreaks

Windey's beloved grandpa may affectionately call his granddaughter a 'dingbat,' but it's doubtful that any 'dingbat' faces public heartbreak and bounces back as gracefully as Windey!

She started out the year placing second on Echard's season, and would deliver what will undoubtedly be remembered as one of the greatest break-up speeches in Bachelor Nation history!

"I don't actually know who you are at all, and I'm pi**ed because I spent the last two days away from my family and my friends who actually give a s**t about me and you don't," she would angrily tell Echard after their breakup. "I can't believe anything you say, not one thing..."

Windey would go on to school Echard on why his decision to tell both her and Recchia he had fallen in love with both of them while having stronger feelings for Susie Evans, was wrong, and highlight how inconsiderate it was to keep stringing the duo along, despite knowing how he truly felt.

Windey's heart would be temporarily mended by 29-year-old Erich Schwer after the duo met and fell in love on "The Bachelorette."

The Blast would cover a number of events surrounding the pair's relationship, including Windey's response to leaked text messages from Schwer's ex-girlfriend shortly before the finale aired.

"You have to really lead on your communication, be really honest with each other while having these tough conversations," Windey said in response to the situation; she had also been aware of the texts and knew there was a chance they would leak.

A month later, Windey and Schwer would part ways amid speculation there had been trouble in paradise.

Windey did not slow down after her time as a 'Bachelorette'; she would go on to compete on the latest season of "Dancing With The Stars!"

Her two big moments in the spotlight would cross toward the end of the 'DWTS' season; she would go on to tease details about her split with Schwer and later discuss it on the show.

"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," Windey would reveal before adding, "we weren't each other's best match."

Windey and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy would go on to nab the second-place slot during the finale!

The 'Bachelorette Babe' Points Out She Lost 'Two Things In The Last Month' In New TikTok

Windey took to TikTok on Wednesday afternoon and would reference two big losses she has experienced in the last month.

While she did not explicitly address those losses, it is likely she is referring to her "Dancing With The Stars" loss and her split with Schwer.

Windey can be seen with big tears streaming down her face while a snippet of Billie Eilish's "i love you" plays in the background.

However, Windey suddenly surprises viewers by quickly opening her eyes and flashing a smile! Upon closer look, it becomes pretty obvious those tears are only a filter!

Our girl absolutely has a sense of humor, but it would totally be A-OK if she needed to shed some tears for real; she has plenty of fans who would surely bring her tissues if possible!

"But you won people's heart[s]!! Which is more important," one of Windey's followers commented.

"yea but like u are the funniest and coolest person so it doesn't matter," another chimed in.

"still first place in saying 'yeah' don't worry babe," another follower added, referencing Windey's frequent use of the word "yeah" as a response on "The Bachelorette!"

Several fans mentioned Windey's alleged romance with "Jersey Shore"s Vinny Guadagnino in the comment section. Windey has been vocal about her interest in him, revealing she'd accept an invitation for a date if Guadagnino ever offered.

Gabby Windey's bestie Rachel Recchia is down with this potential pairing. "Honestly, I wouldn't mind fist-pimping a little at the Jersey Shore, but, you know, we'll see," she recently admitted.

Hmmm...!
