Gabbie Hanna vs Trisha Paytas: Sexual-Health Rumor, Friendship Dispute and 2026 Revival

The feud became public in November 2019 after Trisha Paytas accused Gabbie Hanna of telling Paytas's then-partner Jason Nash that Paytas had herpes. Hanna acknowledged warning Nash about an unverified rumor but defended the decision as an attempt to protect a friend. Paytas denied having herpes and accused Hanna of harassment and slander. The dispute quickly expanded to mutual acquaintance Gabi DeMartino, a blackmail accusation by Hanna and Paytas's threat to involve lawyers. Hanna deleted her posts and said she was moving on, but the conflict repeatedly returned. In 2020 Hanna publicly revealed that she had originally written the song Call Me Crazy for Paytas before their falling out. In early 2021 Paytas appeared on Hanna's Burnout podcast in an attempted reconciliation, but a major disagreement remained over whether the two had ever been friends and how their past interactions should be characterized. Paytas said the restart failed. In June 2021 Hanna released previously cut podcast footage, text messages and a series of Storytime videos arguing that Paytas had lied about their friendship and gaslit her. The materials showed more friendly interaction than a simple claim that they had barely ever communicated, but the subjective question of whether the relationship constituted a meaningful friendship remained disputed. Paytas continued discussing Hanna publicly. By September 2025 Paytas had softened considerably, saying she wished Hanna well and apologizing for past ill will. Hanna reopened the feud on February 13, 2026 by publishing the full uncut Burnout recording and launching a podcast episode titled Why Trisha Paytas Tried To Ruin My Life, in which she accused Paytas of helping drive a long-term smear campaign and harming her career. No comparably detailed direct Paytas response to Hanna's February 2026 revival was identified in the reviewed material through August 30, 2026.
