The Peacock show stars appeared loved up at party over the weekend, but by the morning, one star had removed all traces of them from their Instagram page.
This then sparked mass speculation that the pair had split, with it reported that JaNa broke up with Kenny.
JaNa and Kenny have now each spoken out with differing statements.
Breaking her silence with an Instagram statement, JaNa spoke of the “disgust” and “disappointment” she is feeling towards her now ex.
Taking to her stories on July 29, she said, “Hi my loves.
“Thank you for all your love & support. It means the world to me.
“As you know, Kenny and I are no longer together.
Please know that I have seen all the breakup theories and none have matched up to how terrible, disgusting and disappointing it truly is.”
‘TRULY DEVASTATING’
She went on, “Discovering that someone you loved isn’t who you thought they were and that the relationship you thought you were building hasn’t been genuine since day one has been truly devastating.
“Thank you for respecting my privacy and please know as a child of God, I will always be okay.”
Meanwhile, Kenny also shared a statement on social media where he spoke of how the “past few days have been incredibly difficult.”
He wrote, “I’ve been quietly sitting with a lot of emotions and doing my best to process everything privately.
“Breakups are never easy, especially in the public eye.
“Sometimes, despite how deeply you care for someone, you come to the hard truth that the relationship was not something that could last long-term.”

He concluded, “I’ll always be grateful for the time we shared and the memories we created.
‘NO ILL WILL’
“I release this chapter with no ill will, only a hope that JaNa’s path forward brings her nothing but happiness.”
JaNa then shared another statement in response to Kenny’s.
“Stfu you manipulative liar. You are not taking accountability and telling people the type of person you really are is insane to me!
“My first statement was me being nice. Do not p**s me off,” she penned.
TMZ previously reported how the break-up was “ultimately” JaNa’s decision and told how she had been “leaning on her close girlfriends all day.”
TELL-TALE CLUES
Her TV show pals Serena Page and Leah Kateb unfollowed Kenny days before they each confirmed the split, in another hint of the discontent between the pair.
The couple placed third in last year’s reality series and, since their exit from the villa, had been consistently showing their commitment to each other on social media and in public.
The pair were doing a long-distance relationship almost a year after their time on the show.
While JaNa was based in Las Vegas, Kenny called Dallas home.
They also told how they even lived separately in spinoff series, Beyond The Villa, while filming in Los Angeles.
LONG DISTANCE LOVE
Kenny previously told Variety how he was eager to protect his own privacy and said, “Since leaving the villa, it’s a big jump moving in together with someone, and I didn’t want it to be televised, especially the first time.
“So we rented rooms next to each other.
“Another aspect for me is privacy. When JaNa gets ready for events, she has a huge glam team.
“Usually, there’s somebody in there for wardrobe, and sometimes I don’t have the space to change and things like that.
“Granted, we were always together on the show. It was great to experience L.A. and to be with her in the same city.”
