The “Dancing with the Stars” alum and former “The Bachelorette” star Gabby Windey announced on April 11 that she and partner Robby Hoffman legally tied the knot in a courthouse ceremony in Los Angeles, California. The couple shared a series of photos from the event in separate Instagram posts.
“I do thee legally wed!!” Windey captioned her post, showing the newlyweds posing outside the courthouse. Hoffman posted similar photos and wrote, “Legally speaking hehe 4.11.25.”
The intimate civil ceremony drew an outpouring of support from fans and fellow reality stars. Among the congratulatory comments was fellow “Dancing with the Stars” alum Nikki Bella, who wrote, “Aww love!” accompanied by heart-eye emojis. Fans echoed the excitement, with one user writing, “My favorite couple!” and another commenting, “…this kind of weddings is what lasts forever.”
Windey wore a white, see-through mesh top with long sleeves paired with a white ruffled mini skirt and matching heels. Hoffman wore an ivory-colored button-down shirt with black baggy pants and sunglasses for the occasion. One fan reacted to Windey’s look with, “nips out is ICONIC,” highlighting the standout fashion moment.
From Bachelor Nation to Marriage Milestone
This courthouse wedding comes just months after Windey and Hoffman revealed they were already married. As previously reported, the couple had a secret ceremony in Las Vegas on January 1, 2025.
Windey first appeared in Bachelor Nation on season 26 of “The Bachelor”, where she finished as a runner-up. She later led season 19 of “The Bachelorette” and got engaged to contestant Erich Schwer. The two later ended their engagement.
In August 2023, Windey came out as gay during an appearance on The View, where she introduced Hoffman as her partner. In May 2024, Windey posted a tribute celebrating their one-year anniversary on Instagram, making their relationship publicly official.
From Reality TV to Real-Life
Windey is also known for her time on season 31 of “Dancing with the Stars”, where she was partnered with professional dancer Val Chmerkovskiy. The pair made it to the finale and ultimately finished in second place, behind Charli D’Amelio and Mark Ballas.
Since her time on reality television, Windey has continued to stay in the public eye. The legal marriage ceremony with Hoffman marks a new chapter for the couple, who continue to receive support from fans and the entertainment community alike.
The reality star said in a recent interview with People, “Looking back, I feel like my heart was pulling me towards her. I just never had to second guess anything.”
