What happened to Jonathon Johnson from The Bachelorette? Details explored

The Bachelorette season 21 aired on July 8, 2024, on ABC, with Jenn Tran as the bachelorette. The show welcomed 25 men to woo Jenn Tran and get a red rose from her. The show's finale aired on September 3. 2024, and Jenn Tran chose Devin Strader as her number one. However, Jenn and Devin called off their engagement, as stated by Jenn in the live After the Final Rose special.

Jonathan Johnson was one of the last three finalists, the others being Marcus and Devin. Jenn sent Jonathan home in episode 9, which aired on August 27, 2024. The couple shared chemistry as Jonathan reached the top, but in the end, Jenn felt that the spark was missing between them, and saved Marcus and Devin.

After the finale of the show was released, shortly came the news of Devin and Jenn's separation in August. While fans were soaking in the news, they saw a TikTok video of Jonathan and Jenn together, which made them wonder what was going on between them.

It appeared from Jonathan's Instagram profile @jiggity.jon, that the two enjoyed creating content.

Jonathan Johnson will appear in Bachelor in Paradise

Jonathan Johnson was one of the top three men who went on a vacation to Hawaii with Jenn in The Bachelorette. Jenn felt a connection with all three but chose Devin in the end to get engaged.

Jonathan had made his first impression on Jenn, as he stepped out of the Limo wearing a hospital gown, and a mask. However, Jonathan lacked effort when it came to commitment.

In episode 9, The Men Tell All, Jonathan expressed that he enjoyed his journey with Jenn, and wished that he would have done more, as he thought that Jenn was perfect for him, but he was not perfect for her.

Jenn and Jonathan bonded over their upbringing as both were raised by single mothers. Jenn always acknowledged that he was a gentleman and a sweet person.

Jonathan and Jenn had recently reunited and are seen making public appearances. The fans grew curious by seeing their TikTok and Instagram posts. But recently, Jenn appeared on the Sept. 10 episode of Kaitlyn Bristowe’s Off the Vine podcast and clarified that they are good friends and nothing more.

She said:

"The Internet loves Jenn and Jonathan. I probably will be grabbing a beer with Jonathon, Jeremy [Simon], whoever it is. I want so badly to keep those friendships, but nothing more than that."

After The Men Tell All episode, it was revealed that fans will see Jonathan in his journey to find love once again in this spin-off, Bachelor In Paradise, which will air in 2025.

Jonathan seemed to be prepared to not repeat his mistakes and is ready to express himself more. During an interview with TVInsider on August 28, 2024, Jonathan said:

"I’m really just hoping that I can apply what I learned from Bachelorette to Paradise, that ability to validate my own feelings and come to conclusions quicker."

He further added:

“If I like somebody, I’m gonna let them know. If I love somebody, they and anybody else that’s watching is gonna know. It’s not gonna be hidden. It’s not gonna be too late. I’m gonna let them know in that moment right then and there that you’re the one that I want, and I’m not gonna hide it. So hopefully going into Paradise, I keep that energy and I hold myself to that standard.”
