However, the pair revealed that theyreconnected during a weddingin the six months since their separation. “There was something else, I think, in store for us,” Jen said.
As far as the status of their relationship at the time, she said, “I love him, I don’t know what’s gonna happen, but we’re not engaged. A lot of things would have to happen, and I’m not confident they would happen.” Rishi, however, admitted that he still thought of Jen as his fiancée.
She acknowledged, “We’re still in touch, we still love each other. But there’s a lot of things that would have to happen for us to be engaged again. He would have to be willing to leave his mom’s house.”
After viewing a clip during the tell-all showing Rishi admitting that he “can’t go against his family” amid his parents' refusal to bless his engagement, Jen remained unconvinced that the pair had a future together. “It’s like, Rishi and I have a good time together. I love him. But at this point, I don’t know if this is going anywhere,” she said.
