Though Marcus and Jenn had a connection from the start, he expressed his insecurities after Hometown Dates in Week 7 when he realized how much further along the rest of Jenn’s final four—Devin Strader, Jonathan Johnson, and Jeremy Simon—were than he was, with some of his competitors confessing that they were falling in love or were already in love with Jenn. Jenn, for her part, also noticed that Marcus was holding back his feelings compared to the other men on her cast and whether he was ready for an engagement

Reality Steve confirmed that Devin and Jenn got engaged at the Final Rose Ceremony, and are still together. At the time, it’s unclear whether Jenn eliminated Marcus at the Final Rose Ceremony or before, however, Reality Steve confirmed he was a part of her final two in May 2024 with a photo of him at the Fairmont Orchid in Waimea, Hawaii, where the finale was filmed, seemingly confirming that he doesn’t self-eliminate. 

Prior to The Bachelorette Season 21’s premiere, Jenn told Season 11 Bachelorette Kaitlyn Bristowe in an interview that she had an unexpected ending that’s “never happened” in the franchise. “I think I’m also being told that the ending of my season is also something that has never happened before,” she said. Though fans speculated that the unexpected ending had to do with Jenn and Devin—with the main theory being that Jenn proposes to Devin—there’s a possibility that it could have to do with Jenn and Marcus’ breakup.
