Gina Kirschenheiter has a way with words. The Real Housewives of Orange County star posted a sweet tribute to her boyfriend Travis Mullen on January 2 where she dropped the L-word.
Alongside a series of photos that showed Gina, 35, and Travis hugging, the reality star reflected on her year and looked forward to 2020. "2019 started as a year filled with mistakes, regret and heartache and ended up being a year full of hope, perspective and love. ❤️WHAT A YEAR IT WAS!," she captioned her gallery.
"Honestly one of my favorite and least favorite years to date. Looking so forward to 2020. @travis.mullen.85 I love you. ❤️ #happynewyear #rhoc #newbeginnings," Gina continued. She went public with her romance with Travis in October 2019.
The mother of three has been mixed up in a messy court battle with her ex-husband Matt Kirschenheiter since last year. Gina claimed in June 2019 that Matt allegedly attacked her and threatened to kill her. The two finalized their divorce from in August 2019. They share three children — Nicholas, 7, Sienna, 5, and Luca, 3.

In November, the Long Island native revealed that Travis and Matt have met. “Matt sat down with Travis,” Gina said during a panel at BravoCon 2019. “It was really weird for me … But he said, ‘Don’t worry, he’s a really nice guy.’“
She explained how Matt wasn't happy about her new relationship in the beginning and “it created a bad situation." However, Matt came around because Travis was always hanging out with their kids. She added, “He accepted this was happening. Sometimes Matt can be stubborn but he always does at the end of the day put the kids first.”
The Bravo personality recently opened up about her new man in an interview with Page Six. "It’s kind of interesting because I basically don’t like anybody generally. And I kind of knew that I liked Travis before we even had met, just based off of like how we would talk to each other," Gina said. "He was just like, really open with his feelings, like no game playing, no bulls**t. And we seem to have like the same outlook on life. And I kind of knew honestly that I really liked him before I even met him. So then I was just kind of like when he showed up for the first date, like, please think he’s hot. Please think he’s hot! And he is! So I win."
