On the other hand, Catherine shared in a confessional, "It's the first mother-daughter duo that I know that will be auditioning for New York Fashion Week and potentially walking in the show together and how exciting is that."

Soon after, Gabriella showed her walk to Melo and Aria, the directors of the modeling agency Blonde House. She added, "I have dreamed of walking the New York Fashion Show for years but I am very nervous because they are looking at you they looking to see if you are the right package for what they are doing and I really want to nail this audition because it can open so many more doors for me."

She even spoke about the runway walk and said, "It's a very different walk, very serious, you have to look like you are mad. Arms tucked, cross the feet over."

Despite placing fourth in the Miss Connecticut 2023 pageant, Gabriella remains undeterred. Instead, she appears even more determined to vie for the crown in the next pageant.

“I have been competing since I was 19 and I’ve placed as a top five finalist, but I’m not giving up on my dream to follow in mama’s footsteps and bag the same title she landed," Gabriella told The New York Post.

In addition to wanting to be a pageant queen, Gabriella also talked about her wish for a romantic partner and the difficulties she faces due to her close relationship with her mother.

She continues to be hopeful about finding love even though she faces challenges in balancing her mother-daughter bond.

Gabriella further added, "My mom...wants me to always be hanging out with her — no one else. When I have boyfriends, mom says we are in the ‘love triangle.'"
