The couple were axed from the process after Luke punched fellow groom Jordan during a fierce bust-up.
But now Jay has moved on from Luke and seems to be happier and more confident than ever.
In an upbeat new video shared on Instagram, Jay could be seen getting ready for a first date in her bedroom.
"Come with me on a first date," she penned at the start of the caption.
In the video, Jay could be seen getting ready as she applied her makeup and then put on her outfit.
She then updated viewers from the bar before meeting her date, and then again mid-way through the date.
Jay even got her date to film her for Instagram, before they sat down and clinked glasses.
The former reality star then told fans that the date went "really, really well".
She got candid in the caption, writing: "I've been let down a few times recently which has really knocked my confidence, but turns out there are still some good ones left and I actually had a really wonderful time…"
Fans were quick to comment on the video clip, with many reacting to the news of Jay dating again.

"Hope it goes well beautiful he is one very lucky guy xx," said one.
"Hes lucky to be dating such a gorgeous , lovely lady. hope it goes well," penned a second.
A third then wrote: "Aww Jay. you truly are a gorgeous woman inside and out! And you deserve all the happiness in the world.
"Any man would be so bloody lucky to have you!! Sending you all the love and happiness in the world."
While one of her friends said: "There better a date 2 need someone to take you off my hand. Love this for you hen x."
And a fifth added: "We need an update jay."
"Do you now haha," Jay replied, complete with a string of eye emojis.
In February 2024, Jay opened up to The Sun about her split from ex Luke.
"I agree with us leaving at the time that we did because the altercation between Luke and Jordan shouldn't have happened," she explained.
"At the time I would have liked to have completed the experience with Luke but on reflection I'm grateful that I didn't because it showed me that not every relationship is meant to last and that me and Luke weren't right for each other."
After leaving the show Jay and Luke went on holiday but she says things between them quickly changed when they returned to their respective hometowns.
Jay continued: "When we left the experiment we went on holiday, everything was good and we were really strong but then things changed when we came home.
"He went back to Essex and I came back to Accrington. I felt like he changed and he couldn't be bothered to put in the effort."

Justin and Hailey Bieber's Father's Day 'ends in row as she calls him a child'
Justin Bieber, who spent his Father's Day sharing wild rants, was reportedly branded a 'f***ing child' by wife Hailey amid concerns to their marriage The recent Father's Day was seemingly not a celebratory occasion for Justin Bieber after he spent the day posting erratic messages on social media. On Sunday, Justin got his phone out and went on a wild rant in which he confessed to being 'broken', 'angry' and 'exhausted' from 'thinking about himself all the time'. While most people shared wholesome family snaps of their children and partners, Justin completely snubbed wife Hailey, who he previously admitted he once told her she would never be on the cover of Vogue. On the day, he shared snaps of himself holding what appeared to be a joint and later told fans he was "a dad that's not to be f***ed with." He then shared multiple photos of his lavish gifts, including an Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch, which retails for $38,000, two Prada backpacks and an Apple laptop. However, captioning the eye-wateringly expensive haul he wrote: "Happy daddies day to me u lil ho," with many thinking the crude remark was a dig at wife, Hailey. Hailey took a swipe at him in the comment section following his brutal remark to her on Mother's Day where he posed: "Mother's Day sucks a**." She responded under his post: "Father's Day sucks a**." And now, according to recent reports, his wife Hailey was 'beyond furious' about his erratic posts and branded him a "f***ing child" before asking him to get professional help. Speaking to The Sun, an insider claimed the post 'set her off' as she told him 'it was one of the dumbest things he's ever done'. "She's been telling him for a while to get help - see a therapist, talk to someone who can help him manage his anger and mood swings. Hailey didn't want him to post that message," they said. "She's fed up with his childish behaviour and the constant negativity he brings onto himself. She told him to stop being a 'f***ing child' and to finally start listening to the people who care about him." Many of Justin's fans were convinced that his Father's Day posts, shared over a worrying six-hour spree, were the result of his dramatic mental health spiral. They were followed at 5.50am last week by a long Instagram story in which he confessed to being 'broken', 'angry' and 'exhausted' from thinking about himself all the time. He told fans: "People keep telling me to heal. Don't you think if I could have fixed myself I would have already. I know I'm broken. I know I have anger issues. 'The harder I try to grow, the more focused on myself I am. Jesus is the only person who keeps me wanting to make my life about others. Because honestly, I'm exhausted with thinking about myself lately, aren't you?,' the post concluded.

Taking to Instagram, the presenter, 44, marked her eldest finishing his GCSEs. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Holly Williughby has unveiled a brand new look Credit: Rex 4 The star sported glasses in her Instagram snap Credit: Instagram 4 Holly's show Celebrity Bear Hunt was recently axed Credit: PA Revealing a brand new look, Holly sported a pair of glasses in the snap. She penned: "Any other mums/dads of 16 year old, post GCSE children suddenly find themselves with a new role of personal party driver? "Mums 'Mini' yes... I'm now a Glasses wearer… game changer! Will tag the details!" One follower commented: "LOVVVVVVE the specs, I got mine 2 years ago and can't be without the accessory now! They are cute." Another added: "all the best people wear glasses!" While a third added: "You look absolutely beautiful holly with glasses." A fourth remarked: "Looking lovely good to see you." It comes as Holly recently looked happier than ever as she posed in a bikini and cuddled two pals. The star couldn't stop smiling as she sat on the floor with her arms wrapped around Director of Artist Relations at Universal Music, Shiarra Bell, and All Saints star Nicole Appleton. Posting the snap to Instagram, she kept the caption simple with a single red heart emoji, tagging both friends. Holly Willoughby proves blondes do have more fun as she dyes her own hair The former This Morning host's celeb buddies filled the comments section with their well wishes. Emma Bunton wrote: "There's my gorgeous girls!!!" while Lisa Snowdon said: "The cutest pic!" and Christine Lampard inserted a string of heart-eyed emojis. Meanwhile, it has been a testing few years for the former ITV treasure - as she has been left without a TV show for the first time in years. One option for the star could be a reboot of Record Breakers, which Holly's husband Dan Baldwin is already working on. There is currently no channel attached to the show, which is in its very early stages but sources say it would be a "perfect fit". A telly insider said: "Record Breakers is likely to be a prime time hit and it would make perfect sense for Holly to take the reins. "She has worked alongside Dan before and the pair know what it takes to make great telly." She has also been linked to a reboot of Cilla Black's best-known show, Blind Date. The Sun told this week how the ITV classic is being revived - and in a surprise twist will go to global streaming service Disney+. Producers want to keep the tradition of a top British female host, with a shortlist also including Claudia Winkleman and Davina McCall. Sources say Holly is also being looked at for a new Channel 4 talent show, currently dubbed Secret Singers, which is searching for raw, undiscovered singing talent. Love Productions - the creators of The Great British Bake Off and The Piano - have already put out a casting call. An insider said: "This is likely to be a heartwarming and hugely popular show for all the family. "They are looking for a the perfect host to make sure it's a huge success and it could be perfect timing with Holly's break in TV."
