She turned to her online community, asking if they had any suggestions for quickly fading a black eye within six hours or less.

Immediately prior to the incident, the Gold Coast beauty shared a foreboding image featuring two unsuccessful arrows, complete with a playful cautionary note: “I should have suspected that trouble comes in threes.

Gabby has shared her passion for archery with fans since taking it up in 2023.

In December 2023, she disclosed the unusual demand made to her following her successful hit with an arrow.

Gabby posted a video showing the remarkable instant when she successfully struck the target on her initial archery lesson.

In the video, the model, radiating with satisfaction, asserted confidently into the lens, “I excel at what I’m doing.

While many fans were quick to praise her for her impressive aim, one particular comment stood out.

Instead of posting “feet pics,” she expressed regret that there were fewer pictures of feet in her latest updates, indicating a different focus in her online presence.

‘Another day with no feet pics,’ they wrote.

‘The power of the feet, gives accuracy of the arrow…’

Gabrielle, feeling annoyed by the comments, asked that they cease with such unwanted suggestions.

‘Can I not have one day of peace from ya’ll?’ she retorted.

Boasting over 3.8 million fans on Instagram and a substantial fanbase on Snapchat, Gabrielle ranks among Australia’s most popular glamour models.

The stunning Gold Coast native was not always destined to be a model. 

In her early twenties, Gabrielle, an accomplished teenage swimmer, aspired to become a veterinarian upon earning a degree in biomedical science from university.
