Jackie Bonds has spoken out about her time on Love Is Blind, stating that she divorced Marshall Bonds before reuniting with Josh Demas.
In the most recent episodes of the Netflix experiment, the 27-year-old caused havoc by skipping her bridal gown fitting and was caught apparently meeting Josh, 31, for coffee instead.
Subsequent scenes showed her coming home to break up with her 27-year-old fiancé, while also refusing to return her engagement ring.
The dental assistant took to Instagram to criticise the show’s editing, stating that she discussed her thoughts with her ex-partner before making any decisions.
‘I have seen the latest episodes that have premiered on Love Is Blind and I must speak the truth,’ she wrote. ‘Marshall and I were broken up before I saw Josh at the coffee shop.
‘I am wearing different clothes, my hair is styled different and at the end of the video I say, “I DON’T KNOW IF I AM GOING TO BE WISH JOSH”.
‘I am not sure what the reason is for playing the coffee shop date before the break up but to restate, Marshall and I were broken up before Josh and I had our coffee shop date.
‘As for the ring, Marshall did not pay for the ring Love Is Blind paid for all the rings [sic].’
Jackie will rejoin with her Love Is Blind co-stars for the next reunion, which will be recorded live on Sunday.

Something tells us there will be many more surprises in store…
The actress had a difficult time on Love Is Blind, as she accidentally found herself in a love triangle with Marshall and Josh.
She finally opted to stop her burgeoning affair with the latter and said yes when Marshall proposed on one knee – but their relationship ended soon after, during a trip to Mexico.
When they returned to Seattle, she expressed her concerns about his behaviour and urged that he be more ‘aggressive,’ before they called it quits.
The actress recently opened out about her time on the dating program, admitting that she had one regret about how things turned out.
‘The only regret I do have is I didn’t have that final conversation with Josh in the pods,’ she told People Magazine. ‘That’s the only thing I regret.
‘What I did was right for me. I was simple. Well, I was simple in the breakup, but maybe I wasn’t as simple in the relationship.’
Marshall doesn’t seem to harbor a grudge about the split, adding: ‘Looking back on it, I definitely don’t have any regrets.
‘Everything happened for a reason. And I have no ill will or wish harm on anyone.
‘Life is too short to go about holding grudges or anything.’
Love Is Blind is available to stream on Netflix now.
