Brianna Chickenfry Talks About Zach Bryan and Samantha Leonard’s Wedding
Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia she finally settled her ex-boyfriend’s claims Zach Bryannew wife, Samantha Leonardit’s his doppelgänger.
“No one [he dated] before I looked like me,” said LaPaglia, 26, during an appearance Tuesday, February 17, on the “ImPaulsive” podcast. “Let’s be real.”
LaPaglia initially suspected that Bryan’s “all real” marriage was a “dig” at him and their past breakup but was quick to clarify.
“I’m not saying he’s married, but, like, dating him was finding me,” she said.
LaPaglia and Bryan, 29, were in a one-year relationship that ended in October 2024. After their split, LaPaglia publicly criticized her ex, saying she was in an abusive relationship. The promoter alleges that Bryan offered her $12 million to sign an NDA that would prevent her from discussing anything that went wrong in their relationship, but she refused. (Us Weekly (has reached out to Bryan’s team multiple times for comment, but has never addressed his claims publicly.)
After their breakup, Bryan moved on with Leonard. While the origins of their romance were kept on the low side, the singer announced in December 2025 that she and Leonard had tied the knot in Spain. (Bryan was previously married to her Rose Madden from July 2020 to July 2021.)
“Stronger than others,” Bryan wrote in an Instagram post at the time, showing off his wedding photos.
Leonard showed off some wedding photos on Saturday, February 14, in celebration of Valentine’s Day.
“I love you more every day,” she captioned a photo of herself and Bryan.
LaPaglia has not spoken about Bryan’s relationship with Leonard until now, although the Internet has been calling his new wife a lookalike for several months. LaPaglia, however, shared a cryptic post on social media after Bryan and Leonard’s wedding, which people took as a reaction to their nuptials.
“Check mate: I couldn’t lose,” LaPaglia quoted in a TikTok video last month, while singing Taylor Swift‘s “Mastermind” in the clip.
Country singer Zach Bryan’s song about fainting has fans curious about the real-life love stories that inspired it. Bryan’s career took off after the release of his 2022 album American Heartbreak, his first major-label record. He previously fired DeAnn and Elisabeth in 2019 and 2020, respectively, and later cemented his place in the industry. […]
LaPaglia was previously asked about the similarities between himself and Leonard during the October 2025 episode of his “PlanBri Uncut” podcast.
“The next question is [one] that I have found a million times. ‘What do you think about Zach’s girlfriend who looks exactly like you?'” she said, “I think that’s narcissism 101, like, that’s what narcissists do. They’re just going to find another version of you so far.”
LaPaglia added, “People are like, ‘Are you mad? Are you mad? I’m happy, to be honest. I dyed my hair so people [would] stop sending me all the pictures he posted, I blocked him. I don’t want to see this [and] I don’t want to involve myself in the things he does.”
The Barstool Sports host went on to say that the whole thing is “crazy,” clarifying that the only time he sees anything Bryan is doing is when articles appear on his social media pages.
“I’m so glad he’s not around me — just around my baby,” she added. “Sorry, I have to say it. Your new girl is my friend.”
