In an interview with the Mail Online, Jess reflected: "Love who you love, be you and be happy. But it's a very brutal world and outside judgment is never easy. When someone says, 'Well, what are you? Heterosexual, bisexual, queer?', I'm like, 'Why does that matter to you?'"
In a move that many took to be a response to these comments, Alex shared a photo of Jess on her Instagram stories with her 1.9 million followers, with the 'Oh hello...' finished off with telling red heart and heart eyes emojis.

Opening up about their eight years together - from 2005 until 2013 - Alex shared: “I went back and forth on whether I’d actually be writing the chapter. But then it was one of those moments, I’m writing this book and I want to tell everything. I thought I’d be cheating you all if I didn’t put that in there. And for me, it’s like that first love story, I fell madly and deeply in love. And yes, there’s that heartbreak and those things, but it’s a huge part of my life and I wouldn’t go back and change that. Because that feeling of love and that excitement and what it gives you, it needed to be in there.”
