Barstool Sports’ Brianna Chickenfry confirms she’s seeing country singer Zach Bryan

Zach Bryan has a new lady in his life.

Barstool Sports personality Brianna Chickenfry confirmed she is seeing the country singer after his breakup from girlfriend Deb Peifer in May.

The “PlanBri Uncut” podcast host, whose real name is Brianna LaPaglia, spoke out about the dating rumors in Thursday’s episode of her show.

“I think I might have some stuff to address: I’ve been hanging out with a guy named Zach,” she told her co-cost Grace O’Malley.

“Zach who?” O’Malley asked.

“Bryan,” Chickenfry, 24, revealed after some hesitation. “[We] started hanging out … what, three weeks ago?”

Elsewhere in the episode, titled “The Cat’s Out of the Bag,” the influencer told listeners she wanted to address the news herself after seeing speculation online.

“It’s fun, it’s casual, and yeah, just wanted to address it because the whole internet is freaking the f–k out and people are doing s–t,” she said.

“I’ve been on the podcast lying — not lying — but like, but not talking about where I was or making stories up, and then we’d [be] caught and s–t, and then we’d have to cut stuff. And that is so opposite of what we do,” Chickenfry explained.

“It’s the one thing I just wanted for me, and it just sucks with the internet, how they speculate and s–t with timelines and stuff. It’s just stupid, so I figured I would just say it before the whole internet gets to say who I am and what I’m doing, you know?”

O’Malley chimed in, noting how “happy” her BFF and co-host appeared.

“We’re just hanging out, having fun, and that’s where I’ve been, that’s what I’ve been doing, that’s what I’m gonna be doing for a little bit. We’ll see where it goes, and I’m happy,” Chickenfry concluded.

The pair met in May when they separately attended the 2023 ACM Awards in Dallas.

At the time, Chickenfry said she could not “stop smiling” after snapping a photo with Bryan on the red carpet.

Later that month, the “Something in the Orange” crooner, 27, confirmed he was single again after splitting from Peifer.

“For transparency and with respect I am letting everyone know Debra and me went our separate ways about a week and a half ago,” he tweeted at the time.

“Things are mutual between us, we’re leaving with plenty memories and good times. I beg so much that everyone respects her and my privacy through a hard time,” he went on.

In June, Chickenfry joined Bryan onstage at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, NY, during a performance of his song “Revival.”

The Grammy nominee, who served in the US Navy before pursuing a music career, was previously married to Rose Madden.

The former couple tied the knot in July 2020 at Colchuck Lake in Washington, confirming the news the following month.

“ya sorry brother had to get married that’s my bad,” Bryan tweeted in response to a fan asking why he had not released new merch.

He and Madden called it quits just one year after saying “I do.”

Chickenfry, for her part, was previously in a relationship with Nik Pelligrino.
