Darian Holt and Jadejha Edwards from The Circle Season 7 are still together after the show. Their off-screen relationship developed after viewers noticed their strong chemistry during the season.
After the show wrapped up, Darian moved from Jackson, Mississippi, to Houston to be closer to Jadejha. In an interview with Parade, published on October 2, Darian shared,
“We’ve been doing our thing. We are official.”
Darian, a middle school teacher, and Jadejha, a cybersecurity expert, seem to be moving forward in their relationship. They first caught each other’s attention early in the season, forming a strong bond that extended beyond the typical alliances of the game.

Darian and Jadejha's relationship after The Circle
Though both of them didn't make it to the final stages of the game, their connection remained intact after the cameras stopped rolling. Darian confessed in a September 25 interview with Entertainment Weekly that their relationship felt like,
“love at first sight,” noting, “Lovey dovey eyes, heart eyes, heart eyes, heart eyes.”
Jadejha echoed similar sentiments, explaining that after the show, she invited Darian to accompany her on a trip to Jamaica for a friend’s wedding. Their connection moved to the next stage after Darian asked her to be his girlfriend during this vacation.
In the interview with Parade, Jadejha also talked about how quickly their relationship has developed, mentioning,
"He’s met my entire family. I’ve met his entire family. We’ve done family trips."
Their involvement during The Circle season 7
Throughout The Circle season 7, Darian and Jadejha’s relationship stood out from the start. Jadejha quickly referred to Darian as her "#CircleHusband," and from that point on, they built a solid alliance that carried them through much of the season.
In a memorable moment after Darian was eliminated in episode 9, he chose to visit Jadejha before leaving. Their kiss at the end of their emotional session cemented their relationship and gave viewers hope for their future together. However, Darian’s decision to choose Kevin as an influencer instead of Jadejha turned out to be a misstep in their journey together.
Kevin ultimately betrayed Darian, leading to his elimination. Despite this, Darian held no hard feelings, stating,
“Me and Kevin, there is not any beef. We all know what we signed up for.”
His focus remained on his connection with Jadejha, which only deepened as the game came to a close.
In Episode 12, Jadejha was evicted due to a block by Super Secret Influencer Madelyn. Madelyn regarded her as an enemy, even though she posed little threat after her allies were removed. Given that larger targets like "Gianna" were still in the game, this move was unexpected.
The Circle may be a competition, but Darian and Jadejha were able to build a real connection in a game designed for strategy and deception.
