She split from former TOWIE star Demi Sims late last year, but speculation has already swirled that Jazz Saunders has found love again. This time, fans are convinced it’s with her Made In Chelsea co-star…
It seems a close friendship has emerged between Jazz and fellow MIC star Inga Valentiner, who are fast becoming a regular feature on each other’s social media accounts. After the two reality stars were spotted on holiday together, curiosity got the better of the pair’s social media followers – with one writing in the comments, ‘Looks like you two are dating now.’
Are Jazz and Inga dating?
The comment prompted a response from Inga, who decided to put the rumours to bed. The MIC star simply wrote, ‘We aren’t dating, just friends.’
Naturally, some of the star’s followers chimed in with their own thoughts. ‘Love your guys’ friendship,’ wrote one. ‘Can we just normalise two girls being friends, it’s 2026 everyone!’ Inga responded, ‘This! Platonic friendships exists.’
There you have it: there’s no romance going on here, just close pals.
Who has Inga Valentiner dated in the past?
Since joining the E4 show in early 2021, several of Inga’s relationship have played out onscreen. She had history with both Miles Nazaire and Julius Cowdrey, before going on to date Sam Prince.
As for her sexuality, Inga opened up on the show back in 2021 about choosing to explore her attraction to women – choosing to come out as bisexual to her dad on camera. Talking to Grazia at the time, she said, ‘I found it really liberating. I think the whole reason behind being more fluid and open with my sexuality is that I’ve never been a fan of restrictions. This is really the only reason that I was slightly nervous about being so candid on TV, as I didn’t want people to put me in a box of being just gay or just straight.’
Saying there’d been ‘so much love’ from audiences, she added, ‘I think it’s really important for so many people and especially the younger generation to have more representation shown on TV. The LGBTQ+ community is so incredible.’
Who has Jazz Saunders dated in the past?
Jazz first joined the show in 2024, quickly striking up a romance with Freddy Knatchbull. However, it’s her recent relationship with former TOWIE star Demi Sims that had caught most people’s attention.
During season 29, Jazz opened up to her co-stars about wanting to date women. Opening up about her sexual preferences while in the Maldives, Jazz said during an interview, ‘We were mid filming and we had an evening off, and I was with Jules and Ruby and I’d have a few glasses, and I was so unhappy and told them [dating] wasn’t working for me. I was kind of hinting at it, but I didn’t say. Ruby was like “What about girls?” and I froze and just burst out crying. The next day, I told Lauren for the first time on camera. It’s been a long time that I’ve been doing things in secret and battling with it on my own. It was literally only my sister who knew and I thought it would stay that way, honestly.’
Last March, Jazz also touched on her sexuality during a TikTok video, lip syncing to Cat Burns’ track GIRLS! She captioned the playful video, ‘TikTok figured it out so just gonna leave this here… Cat’s out the bag.’
