Gabby Windey has big plans after completing the DWTS live tour

Difficult

A DWTS runner-up is planning a big step.

Dancing With the Stars season 31 runner-up Gabby Windey did a Q&A on her Instagram Stories on March 6, 2023. During some downtime, the former “Bachelorette” star decided to interact a little with her fans and answer some of the questions they wanted to know about them.

Windey, who is currently touring with the DWTS crew, was giving fans an update on her life when someone asked her, “What’s next for Gabby?” planning a big move to the West Coast.

Here’s what you need to know:

Gabby Windey is moving to Los Angeles hoping to get more job opportunities there

Like many “Bachelor” franchise stars, Windey will be packing up and moving from landlocked Denver, Colorado to sunny Los Angeles, where she hopes to continue her career in the entertainment world.

When Windey shared the Q&A question, she said she gets asked it “often” and thanked her fans for their “care.” She’s got two more weeks on tour and then she’s moving.

“I’m moving to LA. I’m looking for an apartment after the tour. I’m so excited. And hopefully I’ll just have a few opportunities to keep talking and, I don’t know, do some cool stuff and obviously take you guys along,” she said.

Windey had quite a turbulent year getting engaged to Erich Schwer on the finale of The Bachelorette, joining Dancing With the Stars, breaking up with Schwer and within months joining the DWTS tour. Still, Windey seems to be having a blast dancing across the country and has made some great friends along the way.

Windey really chimed in during her time at DWTS and developed a strong bond with her ballroom pro partner Val Chmerkovskiy. The experience really helped her heal from her public breakup.

“I think, firstly, dance is a creative expression, and secondly… And what’s the word? Sporty. It’s a sport. It takes a lot of muscle power, and that’s the part I hate. But I think there’s a lot of therapeutic determination in it,” she said to People magazineadding that Chmerkovskiy says dance “is a form of therapy”.

Gabby Windey wants to be on TV

Windey is a former NFL cheerleader and nurse from Colorado, but her time on reality television has given her a taste of something very different, and she seems hooked.

In an interview with Cincinnati’s The EnquirerWindey was asked what her plans are after DWTS.

“I’d love to be in any type of show,” she told the outlet. “I love television. But I don’t really know what’s next. The tour goes on for a while until March. So I just see what’s coming my way and play it by ear. That’s what I’ve been doing for the past year and a half, and it’s got me here,” she added.

Based on her Q&A, it sounds like she’s ready to pursue that dream full steam ahead.
