I've also asked this question on the gitlab forums and the solution was provided.

Solution: The txt records were pointing to the wrong domain and had to be changed according to documentation. https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/user/project/pages/custom_domains_ssl_tls_certification/#3-set-up-dns-records-for-pages
