Not with him for his money.
Zach Bryan has been dating Barstool Sports personality Brianna Chickenfry (whose real name is Brianna LaPaglia) for a little over a year now.
According to Brianna, Zach slid into her DMs after she made an appearance along with some of her co-workers at his Forest Hills Stadium concert last June.

And after chatting a bit, their first date actually turned out to be an 18-hour road trip together.
Brianna says that she was messaging with Zach and he mentioned that he had to drive his truck from Philadelphia to Oklahoma. And Bri, who admits that she was drunk at the time, offered to go with him – despite the fact that they had never really met in person.

Well it seems to have worked out for them. The couple have been public with their relationship since last July, and Brianna has even been traveling with Zach on his bus during his Quittin’ Time tour this summer – along with their dogs, Boston and Jack, and Brianna’s cats.
So things are clearly going pretty well for the couple, with Zach recently sharing a heartfelt tribute to Brianna as he wrapped up his tour.

Of course, any celebrity couple has to deal with trolls who for some reason or another just can’t seem to stand seeing other people be happy.
Brianna recently responded on TikTok to one of those trolls who accused her of being a “gold digger,” but she doesn’t seem to be too bothered by the namecalling:
“I was rich on my own, he’s just richer.”

And there’s no doubt that Brianna was doing well for herself before she ever met Zach. She has two of the most popular podcasts at Barstool, and is one of their biggest personalities, especially when it comes to the pop culture space.
Love her or hate her, Brianna was no doubt making good money before Zach was ever in the picture – though she admits that he’s richer than she was, which shouldn’t really be a surprise to anybody.
Either way, trolls on the internet are going to find something to talk shit about. Doesn’t seem like it really bothers Bri too much though.
