Next Gen NYC’s Ariana Biermann is dipping her toe back into the dating pool after her split from Hudson McLeroy — at least, according to her costars.
“I feel bad. Breakups are hard always and I’m glad Ariana has a good group of girls behind her because we all know that that’s what you need going through a breakup,” Ava Dash exclusively told Us Weekly while attending BravoCon 2025 in Las Vegas on Saturday, November 15.
Georgia McCann, meanwhile, told Us, “She’s doing really well. You’ll see there’s perhaps a new romance in her life on this season.”
Biermann, 24, meanwhile played coy when she was asked whether she was dating again after her costars’ admissions.
“Maybe so, maybe so,” Biermann told Us, while mom Kim Zolciak added, “Twenty-four [years old]? Go get ‘em tiger.”
Despite her potential new love interest — or interests — Biermann noted that she and McLeroy are on good terms as friends.
“We’re in a great place and it was a very amicable breakup,” Biermann said. “I didn’t want it to be anything nasty and I’m always grateful for the ways he’s helped me over the years, and the friendship and everything that we will always have.”
Biermann’s comments come two months after she confirmed her split from McLeroy, who was her high school sweetheart. (The pair chronicled their first year in the Big Apple during season 1 of Next Gen NYC.)
“Hudson and I have decided to go our separate ways,” she wrote via her Instagram Story at the time. “While these things are never easy, we both know it’s what’s best for us right now. We are so grateful for all the love and support you’ve shown us over the years. Sometimes, life takes you in different directions and that’s OK.”
McLeroy, for his part, went on to address their breakup with his own statement on social media.
“I feel like everyone deserves to hear both sides of our story,” he wrote the next day. “I still and always will love Ariana. She’s been there for me at times when I couldn’t be there for myself. I still have a lot of things I need to heal from and deal with on my own to become the person I truly want to be. I appreciate all of the love and support everyone is showing us during this difficult time.”
Biermann later revealed that she would be moving into her own apartment after sharing a living space with McLeroy.
“Today is moving day, again,” Biermann said in the video at the time. “I’m moving into my own apartment. … First ever apartment in New York City. I’m the sole person on the lease. I’m excited, but also a very bittersweet thing.”
After the split, Biermann took to Instagram to celebrate her birthday — and share a hopeful message for her new chapter.
“Thank you for all the birthday wishes,” she wrote via her Instagram Story alongside an image of her blowing out birthday candles. “And to all the amazing people who celebrated with me I love yall!!! So blessed to see another year, here’s to 24!!!”
