Gabby Windey’s heart is full after saying “I do” with Robby Hoffman.
“I’m married. I’m not gonna cry,” the former Bachelorette, 34, gushed on the Thursday, March 6, episode of her “Long Winded” podcast, before calling Hoffman, 35, the “single best thing” that’s happened to her.
“And you guys know and I know, and now we’re married,” she continued. “And I’m sorry to make you green with envy, but if it can happen to me [it can happen to you].”
Windey noted that she keeps “putting on my ring and taking it off,” as she and Hoffman kept their wedding news a secret until Wednesday, March 5. “We got married two months ago and we kept it to ourselves for once. Can I keep one thing to myself for once? No, I can’t,” she stated. “I wish I could be more mysterious, but that blessing is not bestowed upon me ‘cause I have to tell you my every single thought to make a dime around here. All the air of mystery, ripped away.”
Her ring, however, is something The Traitors star said serves as a reminder of Hoffman. “Now every time I look down at my ring, I see her gorgeous little head staring back at me,” Windey told listeners. “And then, I want to squeeze it. I want to squeeze it. You know, when you see a cute baby, God forbid, and you want to squeeze it so tight?”
The couple broke news of their secret Las Vegas wedding in an interview with Cosmopolitan published on Wednesday. “We had just evacuated from the [Los Angeles] fires. Literally cue Rihanna, ‘We found love in a hopeless place,’” Windey told the outlet. “What better time to get married than right now? Because if the world is ending, we want to be with each other.”
Windey revealed it was her idea to get married, sharing, “Robby was literally ready to propose three weeks in and I’m always the one pumping the breaks, but when something feels right, it just feels right. I think it was better for the both of us that it was my idea.”

The Bachelor Nation star shared pics from the pair’s big day via Instagram on Wednesday, writing, “Husband and wife!! 1/11/2025 🥂💍.” In a post of her own, Hoffman wrote, “Ya boy off the market for life I love my wife !!!!”
On Thursday’s podcast, Windey called her wedding “the best day of my life,” adding, “I want to relive it over and over and over again.”
She also teased that fans will soon get more details about her and Hoffman’s nuptials on an upcoming episode of her podcast. “I don’t want to give too much away because obviously, I want her on, and then we’ll talk about it and we’ll gush. We’ll gush,” she stated.
Windey previously got engaged to Erich Schwer on season 19 of The Bachelorette, but the pair called things off two months after the show’s September 2022 season finale. She later sparked romance rumors with her fellow Dancing With the Stars season 31 contestant Vinny Guadagnino and pro Alan Bersten before revealing she was dating a woman in August 2023.
Back in September 2024, Windey exclusively told Us Weekly that she hoped she and Hoffman were “destined to be together forever.” She shared, “We’re both so busy in our careers [and[ have other good distractions and other things to work on. It just feels really balanced.”
At the time, she joked that “if it was up to Robby, we’d be engaged, like, six months ago.” However, Windey told Us it was “nice to kind of do things at your own pace and really listen to yourself and know that there doesn’t have to be pressure.”
