Colt and Larissa got married in June 2018, according to Clark County Clerk records obtained by Reality TV World, but their relationship took a nosedive due to serious arguments and Larissa accusing Colt of cheating on her.

After a big fight in January 2019 at Colt's home he shares with his mother Debbie, Larissa getting arrested for the third time and Colt subsequently filed for divorce in Clark County Court.

Colt and Larissa's divorce was finalized on April 30, 2019, with both former spouses agreeing not to slander or defame either other in the press or on social media.

Season 5 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? premiered June 14 on TLC, and Colt admitted it was not easy for him to get over his lost love, Larissa.

"After the divorce, it was hard for me to move on, but I'm ready for Colt 2.0," Colt said, before telling Debbie that he was ready to begin dating again.

"It's way too soon for Colt to start dating. His heart has been broken and he's not going to make any good decisions," Debbie told the cameras.

"To be honest, I'm lonely and I want someone to spend my life with," Colt said.

Debbie didn't know, however, that Colt had already started dating someone new -- a Brazilian woman whom he didn't think Debbie would approve of.

"I wasn't looking for anything specific, but this gorgeous little red head reached out to me named Jess," Colt shared. "Jess is beautiful. She is 26 years old, she has a rocking body, she has glasses, and she loves cats!"

Colt said while Jess lives in Chicago, they met once in Las Vegas when she was visiting and spending time with some friends. Colt said they really hit it off and she's fun and likes to party.

Colt planned a trip to Chicago to spend the weekend with Jess, revealing she was an au pair from Brazil living in the United States on a visa. Colt insisted he had never intended to date another Brazilian like Larissa, but Jess just sort of fell into his lap.

Debbie was "a little suspicious" when Colt suddenly packed his bags for a weekend trip and said he was visiting "friends."

Once Colt arrived in Chicago, he and Jess met up at a restaurant, and Jess said her J-1 visa was going to expire in six months but she wanted to stay in America longer because "it's amazing."

Colt called Jess "a breath of fresh air" and was grateful for the new life she had breathed into him.

"I love Colt and he's my boyfriend now," Jess gushed. "He is good for me."

The couple then spent the night in Colt's hotel and slept together, but Jess was upset because Colt had yet to share with Debbie that they were dating.

Colt told Jess he didn't want to rush things and Debbie didn't know everything about him. Colt said he was just trying to be "careful" because his last relationship "almost destroyed" him.

"I'm falling hard for Jess... but I don't really know Jess that well. I don't want to go into another relationship like my marriage was. At the end of the day, I can't do the same thing I did with Larissa," Colt said in a confessional.

Colt later met Jess' friends, who were wary of Colt's intentions and loyalty when they found out Colt had a friend "from the gym" named Vanessa who called him all the time.

Colt -- whom Jess' friends also found a little "controlling" -- said he met Vanessa online and she was "just a friend" who had helped him through his divorce from Larissa, but Jess wasn't buying it.


Colt promised Jess that he'd stop talking to Vanessa to make her happy, but Colt really had no plan of following through on his word given he considered Vanessa to be his best friend.

Regardless, Colt told Jess that he would put her first, as long as she'd be willing to make him a priority as well.

"After Larissa, I never thought I'd find love again. But with Jess, I think we have a future together," Colt said in a confessional.

Knowing her visa was expiring soon, Jess suggested she could apply for a new visa, either for "studying" or a K-1, meaning Colt would have to marry her for her to stay in the U.S.

Colt told the cameras it was "too early" to be talking about a K-1 visa but he didn't want to see her go back to Brazil either.

Jess asked Colt if he'd be up for a trip to Brazil so he could meet her family, and he said he would love that. Jess gushed with excitement, and Colt was so pleased Jess wanted him to be involved with her family -- which was something Larissa allegedly never wanted.

"This is a really huge step for us, and I'm glad Jess and I are starting to talk about what our future looks like together," Colt said in a confessional, before telling Jess that he was in love with her.

Once Colt returned home, he came clean to Debbie about his relationship with Jess and claimed that he was in love.

"Two from Brazil," Debbie scoffed. "As long as Larissa is still in this country or waiting for her deportation, I don't think Colt should be involved with anyone else. It's too fast -- too much, too fast... [And] over my dead body you'll live in Brazil."

Colt said Jess made him feel happy and supported, but Debbie acknowledged Larissa was like that at first as well. Debbie said she didn't understand why Colt was interested in women from different countries and he always lived "in the moment" without "thinking ahead."

To protect her son, Debbie decided to join him on his trip to Brazil. Colt hoped Jess and Debbie would get along, but it was apparently also important that Jess' father grew to love Colt.


Fans were then introduced to Vanessa, who was invited to Colt's house for dinner since she agreed to watch his cats while he and Debbie took off to Brazil.

"I met Vanessa during the last few months of my marriage to Larissa. We started talking online, and eventually, we decided to meet at a casino, and we just kind of hit it off," Colt said.

"Jess has never met Vanessa. She doesn't even understand who Vanessa is, and she's so jealous of her. I told Jess I wouldn't talk to Vanessa anymore, and I was wrong to lie to Jess, but Vanessa is my best friend and she's been there a lot longer than Jess has."

Colt then admitted he had sex with Vanessa one time.

"Honestly, I have a crush on her. I think she's a great girl," Colt confessed. "But I don't think she returns the favor, and so I moved on."

Vanessa said she was going through a divorce of her own when she met Colt and Colt had been there for her. She said they were best friends.

Both Vanessa and Debbie thought Colt was moving too fast with Jess. Debbie even said she wished her son would date someone like Vanessa instead of Jess.

Jess was crazy about Colt as well, but Larissa actually called Jess on the phone to warn her about how Colt was an alleged manipulator and womanizer.

"Colt is a demon," Larissa told Jess during the call. "I know that everything's perfect with him from the [beginning] but he changes and turns into someone mean."

Larissa called Colt "dangerous" and said he might sabotage Jess' status in the United States given he was trying to deport Larissa.

"Once he doesn't need you anymore, he's gonna try to do the same that he did to me," Larissa told Jess. "I know that I was arrested and I'm a little bit crazy... but I don't want same thing to happen [to you] that happened to me."

Jess insisted Colt was cute and said beautiful words to her, but Larissa asked Jess if Colt was hiding his phone from her.

Jess admitted, "Yes," and then Larissa went on to say, "Congratulations. Welcome to the club."

Larissa told the cameras that while she was married to Colt, he was "very shady" and "trying to talk to other women."

"I believe Colt cheated on me," Larissa continued. "Colt is nasty, so Jessica should be careful and [not] trust him anymore."

Larissa added that Debbie is "a wolf" and "insane."

Jess was nice to Larissa on the phone but decided not to take her words to heart since she said she really loved Colt.

But it appears Colt and Jess' relationship is going to be explosive on a future Season 5 episode of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?.

In a trailer that was recently released for the rest of the fifth season, a clip showed Jess throwing her shoes at Colt in a hotel room.

"You lied!" Jess shouted. "Again! Vanessa talk. You still friends. You talk every day!"

Jess shoved a phone in Colt's face and yelled, "Look at this! You lie!"

Colt appeared startled and then yelled for Jess to stop and talk to him as she stormed out of the room.

So are Jess and Colt still together or has the 90 Day Fiance couple split up? And how does Vanessa come into play?

Colt first sparked dating rumors with Jess in June 2019, just two months after his divorce from Larissa was finalized, In Touch Weekly reported.

Colt and Jess reportedly went public with their relationship in July of last year.

Jess called Colt her "person" on Instagram, revealing they had already been together for "a while," and Colt dubbed Jess his "muse" for drawing, a hobby he apparently picked up in his spare time, In Touch reported.

"I'm with him because I want and because he wants," Jess reportedly explained.

"We have chemistry... The important thing is how he treats me. He makes me laugh and he's nice. We like the same movies and songs."

Colt reportedly went on to post photos and sketches of diamond engagement rings on Instagram, the magazine reported in September 2019, leading his followers to believe he was ready to pop the question to his girlfriend.

"Looking for someone that makes jewelry," he captioned the image on his Instagram Stories. "DM me please."

Colt and Jess only dated for a few months last year and decided to break up by October 2019, Starcasm reported.

The pair now appear to be on bad terms, and that might even be an understatement.

In April 2020, Jess accused Colton of sharing nude photos she had sent him during their relationship.

Starcasm reported that Jess publicly flipped out on Colton and called him out for being an alleged abuser.

"I am tired of all the abuse I had in my old relationship and I still have it!" Jess reportedly declared in the first of a series of posts on her Instagram Stories.

"Enough, I can't take it anymore! I'll tell you the whole truth... no woman needs to go through this."

Jess then reportedly wrote the following message to her Instagram followers: "I am really nervous right now about a DM I just received by a guy who says he is Colts Johnson friend my ex boyfriend, a guy who uses women to stay relevant on the 90 Day Fiance show. He is the only person who I trusted to sending private pictures while we were dating long distance."

"Now I just got this DM from his friend and he told me Colt sent it to him. Everyone already knows Colts loves to leak pictures of his small penis. But I never could imagine he could get that far and leak images that I trusted on him."

She continued, "I know [revenge] p*rn is a crime and I need some legal guidance. If you are an attorney or law enforcement please tell me how I can proceed to make this sicko stop. I am located in New York. Thank you."

Jess also wrote a long message that she tagged Larissa in.

"Don't be silent about abuse! Do not be silent by threats, do not be afraid, do not be ashamed! Today I'm going through this, if I don't speak tomorrow it will be another. Women, get help! I do not wish that even for the worst enemy, all the suffering that goes on, all my [friends know], how much I cried and suffered," Jess reportedly wrote.

"Today I am happy and he keeps trying to abuse my psychologically! Every day is a new DM from someone related to him, calling me names and now sending pictures I sent him in the past. I will not shut up, I will fight for me and for all! Let's get together, let's empathize! We are in 2020 where we women... [have] rights!"

Jess continued, "In the middle of 2020, we can't leave men [looking like] hero, like the good man of the mother! Man who plays with women for fame, where he said that Brazilian is all whore and crazy and would be great for him, discloses my photos, disrespects many women!"

Jess vented enough is enough and women must put an end to situations like that.

"He should be banned from this show forever, he had not [done] anything nice to anyone. He likes attention and money and will do whatever he has to do to get TV time again," Jess concluded.

Jess also shared a screenshot of a DM message Colt's alleged friend Sena had sent her with a nude bathroom selfie of Jess attached.

In addition, Jess posted another screenshot of a text exchange she allegedly had with another male friend of Colt's from last year, Starcasm reported.

The unidentified male friend claimed he had seen a "whole gallery" of nude photos of Jess -- and Larissa as well -- while looking through Colt's phone.

"I didn't show anything [last year] out of fear, but this is repeating itself and I won't shut up," Jess reportedly admitted.

Larissa apparently had Jess' back and re-posted the screenshots to help her out and spread the word.


So what is Colt's relationship with Vanessa like now? Are they still "just friends?"

Jess moved on from Colt with musician Brian Hanvey, while Starcasm reported Colt went on to date Vanessa, who was newly-divorced at the time.

According to court records, Vanessa and her husband of nearly seven years finalized their divorce in early October 2019.

In early July, the @tote_the_memes Instagram account, a 90 Day Fiance fan account, shared screenshots of direct messages Vanessa allegedly exchanged with a follower revealing numerous details about her relationship with Colt.

In the messages, Vanessa alleged claimed she actually lived with Colt "before Jess was in the picture."

Vanessa also reportedly said she was the person who drove Colt to the airport when he flew to see Jess in Chicago -- and she picked him up once he returned to Las Vegas.

However, Vanessa reportedly alleged she was never Colt's girlfriend and they are not dating now.

"Never was an official girlfriend. I couldn't take him seriously," she allegedly wrote in one text message.

"Honestly it was never anything. I could never stop going out with other men which is why he never stopped talking to women."

Vanessa reportedly believes Colt "is not happy with himself," which supposedly "breaks" her heart. However, she insisted Colt is "always going to be family" to her "no matter what sh-tty things he's done."

"I wish he'd get help. I tried to help him, but couldn't. I hope he finds some self worth one of these days."

Colt is not Vanessa's type, according to the alleged exchange, and she "couldn't" see past that. She apparently prefers "bearded tattooed men."

Vanessa is also reportedly dating someone else now.

The Instagram account also allegedly obtained a photo of Vanessa and her bearded boyfriend and a text message in which Vanessa wrote, "I'm actually dating someone else. Which is why you see [Colt] follow/unfollow me all the time. He's a very jealous person."

As for Larissa's love life, she got back together with Eric Nichols following their September 2019 split.

Although Larissa is shown living the single life on Season 5 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, a trailer shows Larissa is going to want Eric back, followed by footage of the pair fighting.
