This profile is part of Queerty’s 2023 Out For Good series, recognizing public figures who’ve had the courage to come out and make a difference in the past year.Name: Gabby Windey, 32.Bio: Windey found herself in the spotlight while competing for a diamond on reality TV, but this headstrong Illinois native has always been a gem.
Before joining The Bachelor in 2021, she split her time between the ICU ward and football field, working as both a nurse and Denver Broncos cheerleader.
She even made history (no big deal) when she became the first female and first NFL cheerleader ever to receive the Pop Warner Humanitarian Award in appreciation of her work during the COVID pandemic.
In search of a counterpart, Windey appeared on the 26th season of The Bachelor, joining 29 other ladies vying for the heart of Clayton Echard.
