Brianna "Chickenfry" LaPaglia had a New Year's Eve with friends and shots.

On Wednesday, Dec. 31, the influencer shared a series of Instagram Stories recapping her New Year's Eve festivities as her ex Zach Bryan revealed he married Samantha Leonard.

In the first post, LaPaglia, 26, shared an image of coasters emblazoned with "cock" and "tail" on them.

"I just asked what cock and tail meant," she wrote in text over the image.

LaPaglia could then be seen flaunting her gray hoodie in a brief video.

"Guys, this is my New Year's Eve outfit because we came to Florida but it's 40 degrees out. I'm wearing a high school football sweatshirt," she said, laughing.

The next video clip featured LaPaglia taking shots with friends as Rihanna's 2010 track "S&M" played in the background.

"Everyone try not to throw up. Cheers to 2026," the BFFs podcast host said before her friends took their sips.

LaPaglia also shared footage of her friends drinking and balloons filling a venue amid their festivities.

"2025 thank you for the best damn moments with my best friends," she captioned the penultimate photo on Instagram Stories, which appeared to feature her friends' shadows.

The final snap featured a group photo of LaPaglia and her friends.

"Also I thought I had already had my best friends for life then I met this damn family this year. SO GRATEFUL," she wrote in text over the photo.

On Wednesday, Bryan, 29, confirmed that he and Samantha Leonard tied the knot, after a video circulated of the couple entering a car decorated with "Just Married" flags on the back.

The couple were initially linked in July 2025 after Leonard shared an Instagram slideshow that featured a snap of them attending Spain's Running of the Bulls. They were also seen spending time on vacation together in Instagram photos shared by Leonard in August.

Under her post, Bryan commented, "Spanish eyes."

The Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, who was previously married to Rose Madden from 2020 to 2021, dated LaPaglia from 2023 to 2024.

LaPaglia accused Bryan of emotional abuse and alleged that he offered her $12 million and a house to not discuss their relationship in November 2024.

“You made the women before me believe that they had no other choice than to take money from you, sign their experiences away, sign what they went through away," she claimed on the BFFs Podcast.

LaPaglia added, "You get to go skip off and sing your little f------ songs on stage like you're a good dude ... Sorry, I'm not them."

Bryan has not commented publicly on her claims, however, he subtly referenced his ex in a recent video, sharing an Instagram Stories clip that featured him setting a Barstool Sports flag on fire, an apparent nod to the media company that hosts LaPaglia’s podcast.
