People and US Weekly are both saying that Blake H. and Giannina (Gigi) are dating. It was confirmed by a Source if someone wants to bring these articles over. Thanks!

I have no idea who she is. Searched her, she was in an on off again relationship with the guy she met on the show that she was a contestant on.

Reality Steve has a 2 part podcast episode with Shayne Lamas -- she was F1 on Matt Grant's season. It's very interesting and she also just went through a divorce.

An update on Katie Mo and her English footballer BF. They broke up in August after he failed to get a contract to play soccer in the US. However, he is planning to come and visit, so maybe it isn’t completely over.

The post-athlete crisis she talks about it like what Joe from Michelle’s season talked about. She shows great empathy and understanding. I hope their reunion goes well.

She mentions she got office space. What type of work does she do?

She seems to know what she wants, and has goals to achieve them. I'm not sure if her explanation of athletes being disappointed after a no contract, and needing their own space is her trying to justify the split or not. I have no experience in that field. She is showing a lot of care and understanding which is very sweet.

He didn't get his contract with MLS in the US so now he's not interested in the relationship? If a relationship is strong, and you're looking at a future together, would you not want these discussions to take place? Nothing is guaranteed until you sign on the dotted line. Hopefully he didn't assume he was a shoe it.

On the positive she's living at home which hopefully helps her financially along with moral support from her family. (Although moving back home can be hard too)

How I interpreted what she said is that his identity as a person was largely “soccer player” and now that he no longer is, he struggles with his identity and needs to figure out how to move on to the next stage in his life as a non-athlete. A similar thing could be when a person divorces. They sometimes struggle to understand who they are as a single person and can have great anxiety because what they thought their future would look like is no longer the path travelled with a particular person. It’s an internal process.
It sounds like they pressed pause. He needs to work this out for himself rather than for her. IMO that means a potentially stronger version of him can reappear. She’s keeping a space for him that he knows is there.

@notarose Good explanation. Whomever Katie chooses as her bf or life partner, he better deliver as I think she is gold!
