Since they celebrated the holidays with their loved ones and spend a lot of time together, fans have been wondering if they're still living in separate places.

Gabby recently took to Instagram Stories and conducted a Q&A session with her followers, and one person asked, "Have y'all officially moved in together??"

Gabby responded, according to BachelorNation.com, "Not yet, but it's an ongoing conversation!"

The Bachelorette's Season 19 star explained, "It has brought up many things like finances and fears and has been so great to open that conversation early!"

Gabby and Robby also apparently have plans to continue living in Los Angeles.

When asked if she misses Colorado, where she lived prior to competing on The Bachelor's 26th season starring Clayton Echard, Gabby clarified, "Not really to be honest."

"It's too dry and cold," Gabby added, "but I do miss my friends and family!"

Gabby previously said she began questioning her sexuality at age 30 and then her desire to date women became stronger while on tour for Dancing with the Stars' 31st season. She then met Robby outside of a bar.

Gabby shared last year that Robby, a writer and comedian, had charmed her with her personality and sense of humor.

"She was like, 'I'm not going to lie, Gabby, I want your number'... and then we went on our first date and the rest was history," Gabby recalled.

In October, Gabby shared her thoughts on potentially getting engaged to Robby.

"I do want to get married. I think it's another level of commitment to bring two people closer," Gabby explained to Us Weekly at the time.

"Whether I want to do it [again] right away -- I think I'm just now getting on my feet, getting accustomed to this new life, really finding myself processing all the big change that's happened in a couple of years."

The Bachelor 26 alum therefore noted, "So I kind of want to revel in that and I don't want to rush a relationship. I want to be in the beginning. I want things to look forward to."

Gabby joked about how she feels "bad" for people who get married young in life.

"At [age] 18, like, what else is there in life?" The Bachelorette alum quipped. "You already did the biggest day of your life, you know what I mean?"

After Gabby first revealed she's in a same-sex relationship, she gushed about how she feels "so safe" and "so loved" in her current relationship with Robby.

Back in September, Gabby said on the "Just B with Bethenny Frankel" podcast that she could see herself marrying Robby one day.

"I think it's just another way that we get to commit to each other. Maybe my views will change; I don't really have political views on it," The Bachelorette alum told Bethenny Frankel.

The Dancing with the Stars Season 31 runner-up also opened up about how she felt she could be "a little more romantic and cheesy" with Robby.

"We're always holding each other and [I] get to be a lot more softer and loving," Gabby gushed.


"She asked me to be her girlfriend with a Ring-Pop two weeks in... We celebrate [our anniversary] every month, but if a dude were to do that to me, disgusting! I'd be like, 'Do not act like that.'"

But when it comes to the idea of potentially starting a family, Gabby confessed at the time, "We don't want kids."

When asked if she and Robby had made that decision together, Gabby shared, "Both of us didn't want them separately... Honestly, with Robby, I would love to see little Robbys, and I would love to see her as a mom because she's so hilarious and she's so present."

But Gabby is apparently living her best life now -- and she doesn't want to change that dynamic.

"We both had tumultuous childhoods and we both went through so much as kids, so we want to be kids now!" Gabby explained on the podcast.

"We are kids and we play so much. We want to be able to have room for ourselves and really treat our relationship like our child. That is our priority and we want to throw all of our resources into protecting it and growing it and nurturing it."

Gabby said she had "a lot of shame" to work through after her time on The Bachelor franchise but now she loves being in a monogamous relationship with Robby and believes "real love transcends gender."

The Bachelorette alum also boasted about how she and her girlfriend are both driven and career-minded.

"We both have our sh-t together... I respect her work so much. She grinds and she's out doing stand-up every night, and I want her to... and I know she's going to be supportive of my [goals]. We do work trips together," Gabby said.

In terms of their finances, Gabby shared how they split the cost of things and both contribute.

"I don't really want to buy into gender norms. I think it's like that even within the lesbian community. Robby is a little more masculine, but I'm like, 'We don't need to be doing that,'" Gabby said.


"I'm with a woman because I feel more emotionally connected. I feel safer with your soul and I like your being... We know what it's like to be a woman and we think similarly. I'm not with you because I want you to pay for everything."

Gabby concluded that she does "well" financially and so she thinks everything is "fine" and "fair."

Gabby was previously engaged to her The Bachelorette winner Erich Schwer.

Gabby and Erich got engaged on The Bachelorette's nineteenth-season finale, which aired in September 2022, but Gabby announced their amicable breakup just two short months later during an episode of Dancing with the Stars' 31st season.

"I do feel like [I was a] little caught up in 'Bachelor world.' I think it is a little dated," Gabby told Us about accepting Erich Schwer's marriage proposal on the show.

When Gabby and Erich's engagement ended, Gabby said she and her former fiance weren't "in sync" or "the best match" for each other.
