Where She Stands With Gary Levingston Now
Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston have a lot in common, including their love of dancing. But is it enough to sustain a relationship?
She revealed on the podcast that the two are still very close and talk all the time.
“We talk all the time. We were at the premiere together watching the show in LA. Gary is, I can honestly say right now, one of my best friends. I’ll call him if I have a problem. He kind of talks me off the ledge a little bit, and we are always there for each other. We have each other’s back.”
Not Ruling Out A Relationship
It sounds like Leslie Fhima and Gary Levingston mean a lot to each other. Did she friend-zone him? Not exactly. “I don’t know, because we haven’t spent time together and we live in two separate cities. I don’t know what it could be,” she said about the possibility of dating.
If friendship does turn to romance, they already have a solid foundation. All I know is that for me, a big thing with any relationship, a romantic one for sure, is I want to be friends first, because I want to be with my best friend growing older, and so that is a huge thing for me,” Leslie explained.
The Bachelor In Paradise alum added, “I don’t know what it’s going to be, but I know that we have special places in our hearts for each other. And that’s all I can say right now.”
