Netizens are divided over Josh Hall's new romance, questioning the quick pace of his new relationship and pointing out the uncanny resemblance to Christina Haack.

Six months after his split from HGTV star Christina Haack, Josh Hall has reportedly moved on. A recent photo of Hall with his new girlfriend, Stephanie Gabrys, has drawn attention online, with many noting her striking resemblance to his estranged wife.

In the photo, shared by E! News on Instagram, Hall and Gabrys are seen enjoying a relaxed moment outdoors. Sitting near a fire pit, Josh is all smiles with his girlfriend on his lap.

Dressed casually in a black jacket and cap, he appears at ease, while his girlfriend, wearing a white hoodie, ripped jeans, and a black beanie, adds a cozy vibe to the setting. The scenic mountain backdrop completes the serene picture.

As the image circulated online, fans quickly flooded the comments, pointing out the uncanny resemblance between Hall's new girlfriend and Haack. One user wrote, "All of Christina's ex's end up with her twin [sic]," while another said of Hall, "Definitely has a type."

Some were genuinely surprised. "I thought that was Christina! Looks just like her," a follower commented, while another added, "Good. She's way prettier than Christina."

Some praised Hall's reported partner, calling her more attractive than Haack, while also criticizing Haack for moving quickly between relationships and questioning the example it sets for her children.

Others expressed concern about the pace at which both Hall and Haack seem to move on, with one commenter sympathizing with Hall's new girlfriend.

While some focused on the resemblance between Hall's new partner and Haack, reacting with disapproval or indifference, others supported Hall's new romance, with one saying they were glad he found someone they saw as a good match.

As Hall's new relationship continues to stir excitement on social media, People reported on January 13 that the couple made their relationship Instagram official.

Hall celebrated Gabrys' 35th birthday with a heartfelt Instagram Story, expressing his admiration and referring to her as an angel. Gabrys reshared the post, adding her appreciation.

Beyond her connection to Hall, Gabrys has an impressive career in fashion and modeling. She is a commercial print model with a professional background in fashion and visual merchandising.

Currently represented by Tribe Talent Management in Nashville, Tennessee, she began working as a commercial print model in November 2024. She has also been a lifestyle and fitness model with Talent Direct Agency since 2021.

Before transitioning fully into modeling, Gabrys worked as a Visual Merchandiser and Team Lead for the luxury brand Louis Vuitton from 2018 to 2020 in Chicago. She also served as a Brand Visual Coordinator for Halston, managing private brand operations across the Midwest and Canada.

Earlier in her career, she spent over three years as a Visual Merchandiser and Window Display Specialist at Saks Fifth Avenue in Palm Beach, Florida.

Gabrys also brings strong academic credentials to her work. She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Fashion/Apparel Design from Columbia College Chicago, where she honed her creative expertise from 2008 to 2012.

With such a well-rounded and accomplished partner, Hall appears happy in their budding relationship. A source told People on January 10 that Hall and Gabrys share a strong connection, describing them as "perfect" for each other.

According to the insider, Hall wasn't actively seeking a relationship but met Gabrys in Nashville, where their natural compatibility led to a happy pairing.

Hall is reportedly focused on maintaining a private life, avoiding the spotlight despite not hiding his relationship with Gabrys. The source described to Us Weekly that is "just low-key," adding "He is very happy with his life and looking forward to 2025 and what's on the horizon. This is the happiest he's been in some time."

Gabrys has been a steady source of support for Hall during his ongoing divorce from Haack. The insider shared that their relationship, though new, is growing stronger every day, with Hall describing Gabrys as a "breath of fresh air."

Hall and Haack filed for divorce in July 2024 after more than two years of marriage. According to court documents obtained by Us Weekly, Haack filed for a dissolution of marriage on July 15, citing irreconcilable differences and listing July 7 as the date of separation. Hall filed separately the same day, listing July 8 as the separation date.

Haack and Hall's relationship began in 2021, shortly after Haack's divorce from Ant Anstead. She explained that she met Hall when she "wasn't in a state of fear or fight-or-flight," describing their bond as immediate and guided by an undeniable sense of synchronicity.

Haack also expressed her desire to "protect" Hall from public scrutiny.

In September 2021, she announced their engagement during a vacation in Mexico, and the two married in a private ceremony in April 2022. Later that year, they held a second wedding in Hawaii with Haack's three children in attendance.

By 2023, the couple had settled into married life, sharing occasional lighthearted moments on social media, such as Hall reportedly joking, "How long will this one last?" However, their relationship eventually began to unravel, leading to their divorce filing.

In her divorce filing, Haack requested that neither party receive spousal support, sought to restore her last name, and asked Hall to cover her legal fees. Hall, however, requested spousal support and for Haack to pay his attorney fees, signaling disagreements over financial arrangements.

As they navigate their separation, both Haack and Hall continue to focus on the next chapters of their lives.
