90 Day Fiance stars Colt Johnson and Jessica Caroline were essentially at each other's throats during Part 1 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s Season 5 Tell-All event, but was that really the end of their romance or did they reconcile? Is Colt dating Jess, Vanessa Guerra or neither girl now?

[90 Day Fiance Spoilers Warning: This report features spoilers that reveal if Colt and Jess got back together or if the 90 Day Fiance star moved on with another woman, such as his supposed best friend Vanessa.]

Colt, who previously starred on two seasons of the 90 Day Fiance franchise with his ex-wife Larissa Dos Santos Lima, met Jess after his divorce from Larissa finalized on April 30, 2019.

The feisty Brazilian redhead was working as an au pair in Chicago when she visited Las Vegas and met Colt for the first time. Jess' J-1 visa was set to expire in six months, but she said she loved living in the United States and hoped to stay long-term.

Colt first sparked dating rumors with Jess in June 2019, In Touch Weekly reported, and then the couple went public with their relationship one month later.

Jess called Colt her "person" on Instagram around that time, and Colt dubbed Jess his "muse" for drawing, a hobby he apparently picked up in his spare time, according to the magazine.

"I'm with him because I want and because he wants," Jess reportedly explained.

"We have chemistry... The important thing is how he treats me. He makes me laugh and he's nice. We like the same movies and songs."

Colt reportedly went on to post photos and sketches of diamond engagement rings on Instagram, the magazine reported in September 2019, leading his followers to believe he was ready to pop the question to his girlfriend.

"Looking for someone that makes jewelry," he captioned the image on his Instagram Stories. "DM me please."

But while Colt pursued a romance with Jess, he had another woman in the picture whom he also cared about, just more in a platonic way, allegedly.

"I met Vanessa during the last few months of my marriage to Larissa. We started talking online, and eventually, we decided to meet at a casino, and we just kind of hit it off," Colt told the cameras.

"Jess has never met Vanessa. She doesn't even understand who Vanessa is, and she's so jealous of her. I told Jess I wouldn't talk to Vanessa anymore, and I was wrong to lie to Jess, but Vanessa is my best friend and she's been there a lot longer than Jess has."

Colt admitted he had sex with Vanessa one time, but he never admitted that detail to Jess.

"Honestly, I have a crush on her. I think she's a great girl," Colt confessed of Vanessa, who was going through a divorce when she met Colt and needed his support. "But I don't think she returns the favor, and so I moved on."

On 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s fifth season, Larissa warned Jess that Colt is "a demon" who's "shady" and "dangerous" to her goal of living in the United States permanently, but Jess didn't really take Larissa's words to heart because she loved Colt.

"I believe Colt cheated on me. Colt is nasty, so Jessica should be careful and [not] trust him anymore," Larissa said, adding that Debbie is also "a wolf" and "insane."

Jess then welcomed Colt and Debbie in Brazil, where Colt met Jess' parents and expressed how much he loved and cared about her.

Debbie began worrying Jess was after a Greed Card and Colt would be her ticket to marrying and settling down in America, so Debbie wasn't about to just let that happen. Debbie thought Colt and Jess were "moving too fast."

Jess became very defensive in light of Debbie's concerns, and so Debbie dubbed Jess "aggressive" and "out of line." Debbie figured it would be "a terrible mistake" for Colt to get engaged to Jess.

"If it's a bad relationship, I will do everything in my power to sabotage his relationship," Debbie told the cameras.

With that being said, Debbie spilled the beans to Jess that Vanessa was at her house watching her cats, which made Jess furious.

"F-ck you," Jess told Colt. "You say no talk more to Vanessa. Just friend. And frequents your house... Am I crazy?! Vanessa is a b-tch."

"No, she's not," Debbie said. "She's a really good person."

"Good friend [who] wants sex with Colt," Jess countered, adding that Vanessa was Colt's "friend with benefits."

Colt realized Jess had some "trust issues" because he had been "nothing but faithful" to Jess. Colt admitted he was starting to see demons in Jess and she no longer came across as a sweet fun-loving girl.

Colt took responsibility, however, for lying to Jess and causing the problem. Jess had been convinced Colt and Vanessa were no longer talking based on screenshots of alleged text messages Colt had sent Jess between himself and Vanessa.

"I trusted this, but it's fake," Jess claimed.

Jess therefore found Vanessa's number and texted her. Jess learned Vanessa and Colt were still talking and so Colt had definitely lied to her and maybe even faked his text-message exchange with Vanessa in which Colt told Vanessa that he was done talking to her.

Jess called Colt a liar and "trashy," and she told him to go "die." She also threatened to sleep with her ex-boyfriend just to piss Colt off, although she never followed through with the threat.

"I still care about her and I still love her," Colt said of Jess, adding, "I hope after everything, we can just say we're even and try to move on with our lives."

After a few weeks of being back in America, Colt said his relationship with Jess was on the rocks.

"Because we're back being long distance, it's gone from bad to worse. We fight almost every day and we've broken up a few times," Colt shared in a confessional.

Colt was then shown FaceTiming with Jess, and he asked her to visit him in Las Vegas because he still loved her and wanted to salvage their relationship.

Colt, however, hadn't been 100 percent honest with Jess since their separation.

"I've been sad about what happened between Jess and I, and one of the times Jess and I broke up, I was lonely and so I started to talk to other women," Colt confessed to the cameras, adding, "Jess is going to lose it when she finds out."

Colt had been keeping another secret from Jess as well -- that Vanessa had moved into his home with Debbie as a "roommate" following her divorce. Vanessa moved in with Colt a few days after he returned home from Brazil.

When Colt picked Jess up at the airport in Las Vegas, Jess accused Colt of sending nude pictures of himself to eight women in just two short weeks, and she said she had screenshots to prove it.

Colt insisted he was "mortified" and "ashamed" of himself for hurting Jess and being a bad boyfriend, and Jess accused him of lying all the time and "playing with women."

"Stop playing with women. I no toy. I have feelings. I hurt. I sad. I cry," Jess shared.

Colt then dropped the bomb that Vanessa had been living in his house in the third bedroom but they were still just friends.

Jess wasn't buying it and said she was "done with Colt forever" because he allegedly had no respect or love for her.

"I no want Colt [in] my life. Colt's trash man, not man enough," Jess said.

Colt said he realized his relationship with Jess was over and he needed time to process everything.

"After my divorce... I feel like I don't know who I am anymore," Colt said.

Jess was then shown meeting up with Larissa in Las Vegas, and the girls became friends and got a few good laughs in at Colt's expense. It appeared Jess was done with Colt and didn't have a care in the world.

After the breakup, Colt began working on himself through diet and exercise. Vanessa apparently moved out of Colt's home and Colt needed to feel like a man again.

In the finale episode of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Colt therefore confronted Debbie.

"I just don't want you to interfere so brazenly. I feel like it's not a good way for me to live as a healthy adult... I think you treating me like a man would be the best thing to ever happen to me in terms of relationships," Colt told his mom.

During Part 1 of the Season 5 Tell-All event for 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Colt dreaded facing both Larissa and Jess, two women whom he said "hated" him.

It had been 10 months since he last saw Jess, who admitted her goal was to "destroy" Colt.

When Colt said "hi" to Jess on videochat, Jess immediately shut him down and said she didn't want to talk to him because all he does is "lie, lie, lie."

Jess called Debbie "a demon," and then Debbie snapped back, "I'm so glad he dumped you. I would pick Larissa over you a thousand times -- every time."

Jess thanked Colt for allowing his mother to sabotage their relationship, saying, "Now I'm happy."

On how he felt about Jess after their breakup, Colt said she might as well be a stranger, and then Jess called Colt "terrible." Colt told Jess that she didn't love him and shouldn't act like she was the best girlfriend.

Jess insisted she did love Colt, but Debbie called her "a liar" and left the room. Debbie said she wasn't willing to play this game, and then Jess noted that Colt had broken her heart when she wanted to marry and have children with him.

"You manipulate people," Jess said.

"Come on sweetheart, you manipulate men," Colt countered. "You throw around sex like it's going out of style. Let me tell you -- you had me in bed before I even knew your name, practically. We manipulated each other."

Jess said she didn't lie to Colt and he had send d-ck pics to multiple women. Colt explained he had sent nude pics to other women when he returned home from Brazil and wasn't getting along with Jess and didn't feel appreciated or loved.

Colt recalled how he and Jess were fighting every day and she once blocked him. Jess quickly responded, "It's because you lied to me every day."

Jess accused Colt of being "a narcissist" and playing with women's emotions, but Colt pointed out women usually reach out to him first with pictures of themselves and so he thinks it's "polite to return the favor."

"You like breaking hearts! You are never going to be happy because you are a bad person," Jess yelled to Colt.

Host Shaun Robinson then brought up Colt's "best friend" Vanessa, and Jess accused Colt of cheating on her with Vanessa and lying about it.

Suddenly, Colt admitted he had slept with Vanessa before he met Jess, and Jess replied, "Of course. It's disgusting."

"And then after we broke up," Colt continued while speaking to Jess, "I slept with her some more."

Jess continued to insist Colt had cheated on her with Vanessa while they were together, but Colt insisted, "Jess, I did not cheat on you and hurt you."

Shaun teased Vanessa would join them eventually on videochat so they could get to the bottom of this disagreement.


Were Colt and Jess really over and done with or did they ever get back together?

Colt and Jess only dated for a few months last year and decided to break up by October 2019, Starcasm reported.

The pair apparently never got back together, and Jess and Colt seem to be on very bad terms.

In mid-September, Jess posted a photo of herself on Instagram and opened up about her "past relationship" that "left marks" on her. Although she didn't identify Colt by name, it's pretty clear she was referring to him.

"My relationship was extremely abusive, I couldn't recognize myself anymore! I lost my identity, cried a lot, was unhappy and started to question whether I was crazy like he said so many times. Every day I went to sleep sad and woke up sad," Jess wrote.

"He denied all of the lies and made me believe I was out of my mind, played tricks on me, sayed he loved me in a minute and hated me and called me a whore in the other. His demeanor was extremely passive aggressive and bipolar."

She continued, "Then, to destroy my reputation and self steem, leaked my private pictures I trusted him with, sent it to friends and made me loose my job! Once again trying to destroy my life. I went into deep depression and til this day I go to therapy to try to get over it and to get back to my happy old self."

But Jess concluded her post by saying she "made it" and girls in similar situations should leave the guy they're with immediately.

"Never let a man tell you who you are. The fight is big and the results are slow, but you will find happiness like I did. Nothing is worth your stress! Trust your girlfriends and never settle for a man that doesn't make you feel like the best person alive," she added.

Jess previously took to her Instagram Stories in early August and claimed Colt and Vanessa went to the extreme of creating a fake text exchange in which Colt repeatedly told Vanessa to stop contacting him. (These are the text messages Jess seemed to refer to on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s fifth season).

Jess said they were designed to falsely convince her that Colt's friendship with Vanessa was over and Vanessa wasn't a threat.

"This is the proof how they lied and manipulated me the entire time. When I started to suspect about their affair, I questioned him and he sent those screenshots to me," Jess wrote, sharing receipts.

"He is a liar, a cheater, a [piece] of trash hiding under his mother skirt."

In addition to posting Colt's alleged text messages to Vanessa that made Colt look like he loved Jess and wanted nothing to do with Vanessa, Jess wrote to her followers, "Vanessa told me he called her and both agreed to fake the conversation, this way I would calm down and he could finish the [Happily Ever After] season with me. Then after that they could be together (like they are now)."

In April 2020, Jess accused Colton of sharing nude photos she had sent him during their relationship.

Starcasm reported that Jess publicly flipped out on Colton and called him out for being an alleged abuser.

Jess reportedly wrote in a series of posts on her Instagram Stories, "I am really nervous right now about a DM I just received by a guy who says he is Colts Johnson friend my ex boyfriend, a guy who uses women to stay relevant on the 90 Day Fiance show. He is the only person who I trusted to sending private pictures while we were dating long distance."

"Now I just got this DM from his friend and he told me Colt sent it to him. Everyone already knows Colts loves to leak pictures of his small penis. But I never could imagine he could get that far and leak images that I trusted on him."

She continued, "I know [revenge] p*rn is a crime and I need some legal guidance. If you are an attorney or law enforcement please tell me how I can proceed to make this sicko stop. I am located in New York. Thank you."

Jess also wrote a long message that she tagged Larissa in.

"Don't be silent about abuse! Do not be silent by threats, do not be afraid, do not be ashamed!... I do not wish that even for the worst enemy, all the suffering that goes on, all my [friends know], how much I cried and suffered," Jess reportedly wrote.

"Today I am happy and he keeps trying to abuse my psychologically! Every day is a new DM from someone related to him, calling me names and now sending pictures I sent him in the past."

Jess said she'd fight and survive and continued, "In the middle of 2020, we can't leave men [looking like] hero, like the good man of the mother! Man who plays with women for fame, where he said that Brazilian is all whore and crazy and would be great for him, discloses my photos, disrespects many women!"

Jess vented enough is enough and women must put an end to situations like that.

"He should be banned from this show forever, he had not [done] anything nice to anyone. He likes attention and money and will do whatever he has to do to get TV time again," Jess concluded.

Jess also shared a screenshot of a DM message Colt's alleged friend Sena had sent her with a nude bathroom selfie of Jess attached.

In addition, Jess posted another screenshot of a text exchange she allegedly had with another male friend of Colt's from last year, Starcasm reported.

The unidentified male friend claimed he had seen a "whole gallery" of nude photos of Jess -- and Larissa as well -- while looking through Colt's phone.

"I didn't show anything [last year] out of fear, but this is repeating itself and I won't shut up," Jess reportedly admitted.

Larissa apparently had Jess' back and re-posted the screenshots to help her out and spread the word.

In July 2020, Jess and Colt's mother Debbie also lashed out at each other on social media.

Jess accused Debbie of sabotaging her relationship with Colt behind her back and not teaching her son how to treat women, but Debbie reiterated how Jess seemed to be using Colt for a K-1 visa and permanent stay in the United States.

So is Colt dating Vanessa now, like Jess believes, or do they really just have a friendship?

Starcasm previously reported that Jess moved on with musician Brian Hanvey after her relationship with Colt, while Colt went on to date Vanessa, who was newly-divorced at the time.

According to court records, Vanessa and her husband of nearly seven years finalized their divorce in early October 2019.

In early July 2020, the @tote_the_memes Instagram account, a 90 Day Fiance fan account, shared screenshots of direct messages Vanessa allegedly exchanged with a follower revealing numerous details about her relationship with Colt.

RELATED LINK: '90 DAY FIANCE: HAPPILY EVER AFTER?' COUPLES NOW: WHO IS STILL TOGETHER? WHO HAS SPLIT? WHERE ARE THEY NOW? (PHOTOS)

Vanessa reportedly claimed she was never Colt's girlfriend and they were not dating at the time.

"Never was an official girlfriend. I couldn't take him seriously," she allegedly wrote in one text message.

"Honestly it was never anything. I could never stop going out with other men which is why he never stopped talking to women."

Vanessa reportedly said Colt "is not happy with himself," which supposedly "breaks" her heart. However, she insisted Colt would "always [be] family" to her "no matter what sh-tty things he's done."

"I wish he'd get help. I tried to help him, but couldn't. I hope he finds some self worth one of these days."

Colt is also not Vanessa's type, according to the alleged exchange, because Vanessa likes "bearded tattooed men." She said she "couldn't" see past Colt's looks.

Vanessa therefore reportedly went on to date a different guy after her divorce -- a bearded guy.

The @tote_the_memes Instagram account allegedly obtained a photo of Vanessa and her boyfriend at the time in which Vanessa wrote, "I'm actually dating someone else. Which is why you see [Colt] follow/unfollow me all the time. He's a very jealous person."

And Colt subsequently confirmed in a late July interview with Entertainment Tonight -- in which he called Jess "a rebound" -- that Vanessa was just a friend and they're "kindred spirits."

"She's someone in my life I can always count on," Colt shared.

Colt also reiterated in an early August interview with Us Weekly that he and Vanessa were still just friends.

"I have no idea what the future holds," Colt told Us.

"I mean, I didn't even think 2020, it would be like this at all. So it's hard to say what tomorrow will be, but Vanessa is a great friend, you know, she's my best friend and right now it's been enough."

However, it appears Colt and Vanessa's relationship has changed in the last month or so and they are now dating!

The Instagram account @ReealityTeaVee posted a video of Colt and Vanessa walking hand-in-hand and side-by-side down a Las Vegas street while spending time with Nick Hogan and his girlfriend, Tana Lea, in early September 2020.

It looks like Colt has slimmed down and grown out his facial hair, and Vanessa was flashing a big smile in the video.

In addition, Vanessa and Colt were also photographed inside a local restaurant with Nick and Tana.

Neither Colt or Vanessa has confirmed their alleged new romance, but a picture -- or video as well, in this case -- is worth a thousand words.
