Zach Bryan has seemingly debuted the new woman in his life, five months after a highly publicized split from Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia.
“Nothing like a 6 am half marathon ehh?” Bryan, 29, captioned an Instagram Story on Tuesday, March 11, tagging a woman named Hannah Duncan in the photo. The picture featured Duncan standing on a beach at the water’s edge.
Duncan has yet to share the story to her own social media accounts, but posted a similar photo via Instagram Stories. However, she did not tag Bryan. (Us Weekly has reached out to Bryan’s team for comment.)
It’s unclear when Bryan and Duncan, who is an Australian model, first got together, but Page Six reported earlier this month that the duo were spotted out in New York City together. The publication reported on March 8 that the rumored new couple went to a bar together at South Street Seaport and even attended a New York Knicks game during their trip.

Duncan shared a social media recap from her trip to the Big Apple, but there was not one glimpse of Bryan on her page. “Big city,” she captioned the series of photos and videos on March 9. Bryan did “like” the post.
Bryan’s apparent new romance comes after he announced in October 2024 that he had split from Barstool Sports’ LaPaglia, 25, after a year together.
Their breakup drama lasted for weeks after the initial split announcement with LaPaglia talking about being blindsided by the breakup on several podcast appearances. She also alleged that she suffered emotional abuse at the hands of Bryan, who reportedly offered her $12 million to sign an NDA following their split. (Bryan has never publicly addressed any of LaPaglia’s allegations.)
“The last year of my life has been the hardest year of my life dealing with the abuse from this dude,” LaPaglia claimed during a November 2024 episode of the “BFFs” podcast. “I’m still scared right now because I’m scared of him still. My brain’s rewired. I’m scared to make him mad.”

In the months following their split, LaPaglia has publicly vowed to stay single for a bit. (Although she has made headlines for making out with Summer House star West Wilson.)
“Dating looks like a dark hole that I don’t want to jump into,” LaPaglia joked to Us Weekly exclusively while attending the 2025 Golden Globes in January, noting that she and “BFFs” cohost Josh Richards made a bet about her love life. “I’m not allowed to have a boyfriend until summer. June 21st. [Josh] doesn’t think I can do it. I think I can do it. No boyfriends.”
