Only seven months after she had split from Jonathan Scott, Jacinta Kuznetsov surprised fans when she made the revelation that she was engaged to photographer and filmmaker Will Allen, who she apparently knew from way back. It’s unclear whether or not they ended up making it down the aisle, as no signs of Allen remain on Kuznetsov’s Instagram feed, but at the time, Scott extended his congratulations to his ex, telling Us Weekly that he wishes her “the very best always.”

But he later admitted to People that he was blindsided by the news, saying that he didn’t anticipate Kuznetsov to move on so quickly. After all, he was still reeling from their split at the time. “I was upset, I won’t lie. I was not ready to date. It wasn’t even on my radar,” he confessed. “But I’m a realist, and I knew that it was not for me to say when and who she would date.” Ultimately, he knew that it didn’t make sense for them to stay together. “Regardless of what we had, I’ve come to terms with the fact that we were not right as life partners,” he added. “Though we don’t speak regularly, we are on good terms and both know we are there if needed.”
