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."
