Dropping the L-word on social media is definitely a big step and comes just days after Gina Kirschenheiter did a little self-reflecting. Her past 12 months have included a turbulent divorce battle, a DUI and an up and down relationship with her fellow "Housewives." Posting a lengthy caption to Instagram ahead of the new year, she said "far from perfect" and acknowledged her mistakes. "I choose to stay positive and recognize that every bad mistake I make and ever bad experience that comes to me is an opportunity for personal growth," she wrote. "I have more and more life perspective with every experience I have. Good or bad. I will stay grounded and humbled."

Gina made her relationship with Travis IG official in September and it's getting serious because he's already met her soon-to-be husband. As The Blast reported, the "RHOC" star introduced Matt Kirschenheiter to her new beau. While appearing at BravoCon in November, Gina spilled the beans on their first meeting saying, "It was really weird for me." She also stated that “at first he [Matt] was not having it. It created a bad situation between him and I.” Gina added that Matt wanted to meet Travis because he is around their kids. "He accepted this was happening. Sometimes Matt can be stubborn but he always does at the end of the day put the kids first," she said.
