Are Josh and Jackie from 'Love Is Blind' season 4 still together?
Fans have daggers pointed at Josh and Jackie. 'Love Is Blind's' infamous pair shares their status with the rest of us
While Marshall was being fitted for his wedding tux, Josh and Jackie, Love Is Blind's second-choice couple, decided to give their failed romance another try. The problem? Jackie was seemingly still engaged to Marshall when she came to this decision, which she later denied.
"Marshall is too sensitive for me, basically," she confessed to Josh over coffee. "When I told him to be more aggressive and boss up, he left for like three days."
When Josh asked how Jackie would think Marshall would feel about their impromptu get-together, she quickly replied, "I don't care." After some back and forth, they ultimately decided to pursue their love and sealed the deal with a kiss. We were floored. But where do Josh and Jackie stand now?
Where do Josh and Jackie, 'Love Is Blind's' second-chance couple, stand today?
We just caught up with everyone in Love Is Blind: After the Altar season 4, where we witness Jackie and Josh getting an apartment together, and we get a glimpse of them moving their belongings into their new place in Seattle. We also noticed a sit-down between the two...and Josh's ex-fiancée from the pods, Monica Rodriguez. It was the most dramatic part of the special. But since the catch-up aired, things have changed between the two. Jackie took to Instagram Stories to reveal that they called it quits two weeks after filming After the Altar...all because of that interaction.
“[I’m] still sick about it low-key. I love that man,” she said in the clip. “I was like, 'Damn, I had all these life plans with you, you know? And then you just don’t even care,' and I’m like, that’s crazy, over a conversation with somebody? — It don’t matter."
Jackie also had a conversation with her ex, Marshall, during After the Altar, which seemingly was fine with Josh. The former couple decided to make things right with one another after the flag football game with everyone from the season. They hugged it out and decided to move forward, plus Marshall is dating another woman named Chay, a nurse practitioner.
“The breakup was obviously so messy, and I apologize for that,” Jackie told Marshall. “I should’ve been more open. I should’ve been more nurturing. I just haven’t gotten there yet.”
In the massively delayed live Love Is Blind season 4 reunion back in April 2023, Jackie and Josh revealed that they were still going strong, living together, and acting as dog (and fish) parents. Although they didn't appear at the reunion itself, Netflix presented a two-minute interview clip of the two with Vanessa Lachey.
What did surprise us, however, were some of the accusations Jackie made about her former flame, Marshall, during the spring reunion. She infamously decided not to give back her engagement ring when they broke up, and she alleged that he wanted to snatch up the rock so that he could propose to another contestant from the pods, an accusation he denies.

Twitter reactions to Jackie and Josh from 'Love Is Blind':
Let's just say the internet had some thoughts about Jackie's breakup with Marshall and her quick get-together with Josh, who ultimately decided to part ways with his other half over a conversation.
"This Jackie, the deflecting, the gaslighting, the deceitful Jackie, I don't know who that is, and, apparently, that's the real Jackie." GAGGED yas Marshall, read her!! #LoveisBlind4 #LoveIsBlind pic.twitter.com/UEUMfem94oApril 7, 2023
Jackie has the same NASTY spirit that Irina does. The fact that she cheated on Marshall & wouldn't even give him back the ring is mind boggling. Sis, you're already back with Josh but you want to keep your ex fiance's ring?!??#LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlindS4 pic.twitter.com/20KwnewvywApril 7, 2023

Jackie responds to 'Love Is Blind' editing
In early April, a week before the reunion took place, Jackie took to Instagram, alleging that she met up with Josh after she had called it quits with Marshall, suggesting that Netflix had messed with the timeline to make it appear as if she was cheating.
On the reunion, she clarified an issue she had with the timeframe that viewers witnessed during the fourth season: "It looks like I'm a cheater, and I am not a cheater," she said.
As for Jackie and Marshall, the two certainly had beef in the past but are moving forward. And Jackie’s leaked texts about Marshall that caused commotion earlier this year were finally put to rest after the reunion.
"It was tasteless and disrespectful to speak about anyone that way. It was never a battle between Marshall and I," Jackie wrote. "I am thankful that Vanessa Lachey allowed me to speak my peace and take accountability for my actions."
