Gina and Travis began living together in 2020, less than a year after they started dating. The couple resided in an OC townhouse with their blended family, which Gina referred to as “The Brady Bunch.”
Fast-forward to the summer of 2024, when Gina revealed she had asked Travis to move out of their home. Why? Well, she initially cited a lack of space and their financial situation; however, she later admitted that it was “fear” that prompted the decision, as Travis was dealing with issues involving his ex.
“Last year, it was very easy to say, ‘Oh, we can’t afford something together,’ because that wasn’t the real issue,” she said in the RHOC Season 19 premiere. “I found out that I was living with fear and making my decisions out of fear.”
