“The part of the WAG life that nobody talks about that isn’t as glamorous is when the men get traded literally off the drop of a hat and all of a sudden you lose friends,” Gia Duddy said in her TikTok video on September 28, 2026. “I swear to God, my four closest friends, every single one of them, are gone. From preseason to now. I’d like to say I’m all alone, but I’m not all alone. I still have so many great friends here.”
She further talked about one of her friends’ move.
“Guys, I’m worried about my one friend moving to Miami,” Duddy said. “B***h, I’m in Cincinnati, Ohio. You’re going to Miami? Bring me with you.”
That’s a price you pay for being an NFL WAG. And Duddy is already making solid efforts to be around her boyfriend, Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas. Despite being based in Nashville, she traveled to Cincinnati for the Cincinnati Comic Expo, which ran from September 25 to September 27, 2026, at the First Financial Center in Cincinnati.
Duddy posted the Instagram Stories on Saturday night, September 26, 2026, while attending the expo. But the speculation around her and Iosivas had started weeks earlier. In August, Duddy posted a video from a Bengals training camp practice where fans noticed that she included a clip of Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas catching a pass. That quickly led to speculation that Duddy may have been subtly hinting that Iosivas was her new boyfriend.
What added to the rumor mill even more was the video she posted on Tuesday, August 18, 2026. Duddy shared a “day in my life vlog” on Instagram showing her visit to the Cincinnati Bengals’ practice at Kettering Health Practice Fields. The vlog also showed Duddy getting coffee and lunch with other Bengals players’ wives and girlfriends, giving fans a closer look at her day around the team.
Then, that continued on September 5, when Gia Duddy shared Instagram Stories that appeared to show her having dinner, with food from “Locust.” She then posted photo-booth pictures of herself and Andrei Iosivas together. In the photos, they posed side by side, while Duddy also made a peace sign in one of the pictures.
The biggest hint came from another photo, where the two apparently shared a kiss. However, Iosivas’ face was partly covered by Duddy’s thumb. Neither of them had officially confirmed their relationship, so the posts looked like Duddy was slowly revealing the romance rather than making a direct announcement.
However, this isn’t the first time Duddy has faced a WAG situation.
Levis spent three years at Penn State before transferring to Kentucky, where he continued his college career. He and Duddy reportedly met at Penn State in 2021 and dated for three years. During their relationship, they also had to deal with a long-distance relationship after Levis transferred to Kentucky.
By March 2023, Levis’ NFL future was also starting to affect Duddy’s plans. She was preparing to graduate from Penn State in May and was already thinking about which city she might move to after Levis entered the NFL.
“I honestly feel like it’s my time; I’m ready to move on,” Duddy said in a March 2023 TikTok video. “I will graduate, or at least walk in the beginning of May. By then, hopefully, I will know what city I’ll be looking to move to because Will will hopefully be on a team. Once I know what city I’m in, I can start looking for nursing schools.”
However, their relationship eventually ended in September 2023. Nevertheless, she might have found a new love in the form of Andrei Iosivas.
On the other hand, the season looks tough for Andrei Iosivas as he is on the Reserve/Injured list after he suffered a thumb injury during the team’s Week 2 game against Houston. Now, let’s wait and see how this season turns out for him.
