Reality TV star Davis Mallory (“The Challenge”) goes Instagram official with his girlfriend, Rachel Vaughan, sharing a collage of images from time together on vacation. In the posts, Mallory and Vaughan appear together in multiple “special moments,” and the caption references new memories that will later become older photographs.
The relationship post follows an earlier public announcement made about a year prior, when Mallory said he was “no longer gay.” PinkNews frames the new photos as a shift to being publicly visible with a partner after that statement. The New York Post similarly reports the Instagram debut, focusing on the fact that the couple’s relationship is now more openly presented. Across both outlets, the core details are that Mallory posts with Vaughan now, and that it occurs roughly a year after his earlier comments about his sexuality.
Neither outlet disputes the timing or the identity of the girlfriend; their coverage centers on the same sequence of events and the public nature of the photos.
