Josh Hall now Instagram is official with Stephanie Gabris during his ongoing divorce from his estranged wife, Christina Haak.
Hall took his Instagram stories on Monday, Jan. 13, and shared a picture of himself with Gabry sitting on his lap by a fire with mountains and a Christmas tree in the background. The couple were all smiles as they dressed in a casual, cozy outfit.
“Happy 35th to this real life (angel),” Hall captioned the photo, adding an angel emoji and tagging Gabris.
Earlier this month, a source exclusively revealed Us Weekly that Hall, 44, had “met someone wonderful in Nashville and they've been happily dating for a while.” The insider noted that while Josh “wasn't trying to date,” he did meet someone who is a “perfect fit.”
The source added that Hall is “trying to live a more private life” because he has “no desire to be a celebrity” after he and Haq, 41, called it quits in July 2024 after two years of marriage.
“He hasn't done a relationship show, but that's no secret. Josh is just humble,” the insider said We. “He is very happy with his life and is looking forward to 2025 and what is on the horizon. This is the happiest he's been in a while.”
While Monday's social media post marked their first time posing as a couple, the duo posted separate Instagram snaps from Big Sur, Calif., in September, just days after Hall's birthday. Gabrys also noted Hall in a Story, which showcased a beautiful bouquet of flowers. She added the message: “You don't have to ask him if he loves you.”
On New Year's Day, Hall reflected on how the previous year had been “tough” for him, but explained that he had grown as a person.
“Sometimes tough situations can change you. You end up being a different person. A better version of yourself. You learn things about yourself that you didn't know before,” he wrote via Instagram at that time. “It has opened my eyes to a lot of things. Although it was difficult, I know it taught me many lessons and I am grateful for that. I always tell myself that God gives the hardest battles to his strongest soldiers.
Gabrys appeared in the comments section with a message of support.
“We are proud of you and the strong, patient, hardworking, generous and kind-hearted man!” she replied. “2025. year will be the best year yet! ❤️“.
