Gabby Windey shocked fans after she announced that she is gay, and is now dating girlfriend Robby Hoffman.

“I always just want to live my truth, and my story,” the former “Bachelorette” star said on “The View”. “And so I have been seeing someone for a couple months, and I’ve been keeping it a little more private because it is like a bigger story and a bigger conversation, because I’m dating a girl!”

The couple has been together for about five months now, and Windey is starting to look at the future with Hoffman.

The former "Bachelorette" lead appeared on an episode of the  "Just B with Bethenny Frankel" podcast, where she opened up about her current relationship, and if she can see herself marrying Robby Hoffman.

"Yes," Windey said of wanting to tie the knot with Hoffman. "Yeah, for once!"

"I think it's just another way that we get to commit to each other," she continued. "Maybe my views will change; I don't really have political views on it."

Reflecting back on how their relationship began, Windey explained,  "She asked me to be her girlfriend with a Ring-Pop two weeks in... We celebrate [our anniversary] every month, but if a dude were to do that to me, disgusting! I'd be like, 'Do not act like that.'"

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 things I’ve been through in the public eye, from ‘The Bachelor’ to ‘The Bachelorette’, I’ve learned your story really gets told for you through editing, so now I wanted to be able to tell it myself,” she said per Glamour. “It’s pretty taboo to out people these days, but there was a fear of that. And I want to be able to talk about my life openly. That’s how people know me. But I don’t think I realized how good it was going to feel to be this open.”

Windey went on to explain how something “sparked” in her after she was watching “Perfect Match” on Netflix. On the show, there was an openly bi, lesbian storyline between two contestants, which Windey says “sparked something inside of her”.

“Something inside of me could relate, and I thought, Maybe I need to explore this,” Windey said. “I’m 32, and I’ve been through a lot, just like everybody. We all just want to be loved at the end of the day, have a connection, and feel supported. So when I moved back 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’d still indicated on my profile that I was interested in men and women, but I wasn’t really looking at the men. Everybody knows me as the Bachelorette and dating multiple men, but I knew if this is something that feels true to me, I had to follow it.”

She says she is extremely happy in her current relationship and doesn’t see herself dating anyone else. “I don’t think I would ever date a man again,” she said per Glamour. “I feel so emotionally connected to my girlfriend and that’s what’s most important for me.”
