The pair hadn’t been living together for nearly eight months amid COVID-19 travel restrictions – with Kai residing in Los Angeles and Jess based in Brisbane at the time.
“To all the souls messaging me about Kai – we are no longer together. I was not afforded any real explanation to address this with clarity here,” Jess said when announcing their split.
“While I appreciate your concern, as much of our relationship was on social media, I don’t know what to say except that I wish to put this behind me, and I’m lucky to have people who love me to support me through this time,” she added in her post.
In October 2019, exactly a year before their breakup, Kai proposed to Jess at a resort in Joshua Tree National Park in Southern California, with Jessica sharing the news on Instagram.
“Even though we are engaged, we won’t be able to see each other until the borders are open again because of the government restrictions,” Jess said.
“We are doing amazing and I’ve got the family through all of this.”
