Gabby Nieves from Love During Lockup is no stranger to causing a scene online. Since the debut of the show, she has gotten into more than a few arguments with viewers on social media.
She is often seen defending herself to fans and replying to their comments with sarcastic rebuttals. Many viewers have found themselves blocked by the reality star after challenging her to justify her behavior.
It’s her latest outburst on social media though, that could create some backlash for this clap-back queen.
Gabby supports former 90 Day Fiance star, Geoffrey Paschel
Recently, Gabby shared a controversial post on her Twitter account about former 90 Day Fiance star, Geoffrey Paschel. The post featured a picture of Geoffrey in the courtroom while he was on trial for charges of domestic assault, interfering with emergency calls, and kidnapping.
In her post, Gabby commented, “Free that man he innocent!”
During his trial, the judge called Geoffrey a “manipulator with psychological issues.” This may lead some fans to question why she would support him and make it known online.
This post came shortly after Geoffrey was sentenced to 18 years in prison with no chance of parole.
Gabby’s storyline leaves fans shocked
In the premiere episode of Love During Lockup, Gabby shares her story of falling in love with Chris who is currently in prison. She says he won a lawsuit from allegedly being mistreatment by the prison guards and received a $150,000 settlement. From that amount, she claims he has sent her over $60,000.
With that money, she says she bought herself a car, an engagement ring, and went on shopping sprees. Gabby claims once Chris is released, they will move in together and get married. One episode features Gabby shopping for wedding dresses that cost up to $30,000 which she expected Chris to pay for.
In a recent episode of the show, Gabby learns that Chris may still be involved with his ex. Gabby reaches out to his brother to learn the truth, and he tells her Chris is being faithful to her. But she still feels unsure about the status of their relationship.
Viewers have no problems expressing their feelings about Gabby, as many of them appear to be over her attitude and believe Chris may actually be cheating on her.
