American television personality Gabby Windey is single following her split from Erich Schwer. She is, however, looking for love again.
After The Bachelorette star called off her engagement with Schwer, she was linked with fellow Dancing With the Stars contestant Vinny Guadagnino, best known as the surprisingly attractive former Jersey Shore star from MTV.
Following their flirtatious Instagram comments on each other’s posts, Windey and Guadagnino were thought to be dating. The Jersey Shore star took to social media and shared several photos of himself on November 29, 2022.
Guadagnino wrote alongside an Instagram video of himself dancing, “Ya’ll need to get with a strong 7/8 with a good personality. If he’s too hot, he’s not gonna be funny or cook.” The video also had a caption that read, “When you’re medium hot, but somebody fine likes you.”
Following the post, Windey commented, “Honestly a 10.” Fans of Dancing With the Stars believe Guadignino’s interest in The Bachelor star based on how he appeared to be checking her out on the finale stage of the show.
During the November 18 episode of the Chicks in the Office podcast, Windey was asked about her relationship with Guadagnino, to which she replied, “I mean, we’re friends. We were on Dancing With the Stars together.”

“Apparently both of us just like to kind of stir the pot. Which is, like, funny. But the rumors did happen out of nowhere,” she added.
That same month, the television personality stated that she would be open to a date with Guadagnino, saying, “Yeah, I would at this point. I could use a pick-me-up.”
Gabby Windey’s relationship with Erich Schwer
Schwer was the lucky man who won Windey’s heart at the end of The Bachelorette season 19. In the show, Schwer proposed to Windey. Later, he also supported his then-fiance by cheering her on from the audience during the live performance of Dancing With the Stars season 31.
Windey was later caught not wearing her engagement ring during two Dancing With the Stars episodes. That led people to speculate if the engaged couple had called off their engagement.

So, when asked about the engagement ring, Windey said, “Life is just really busy for the both of us right now. So I understand their concern but we’re just kind of, you know, going forward with each of our individual interests and supporting each other from afar.”
The television personality confirmed their separation on the November 14 episode of Dancing With the Stars. Their relationship had its ups and downs, like most relationships that emerge from the reality TV franchise scene.
Reason for Gabby Windey and Erich Schwer’s split
The Bachelorette couple ended their relationship because they weren’t entirely in sync with each other in their shared goals or how they approached life. Windey stated that parting ways with the real estate analyst were complicated.
She told People, “I’m just grateful that I could do it on my terms and when I was ready. It was just a new experience being so public and thrown into this, and I think it’s just trying to move forward now.”
