Jenna expressed her disbelief at finding such a deep connection, saying, “I didn’t think this kind of love existed.

“It’s incredible to have someone who loves, cares and respects you as much as you do. Now I get to marry my best friend instead of a stranger!’

Jenna added, “I love you, Zoe. We’re going to make the cutest old married lesbian couple ever! What a way to celebrate Pride month.”

The pair were the first lesbian relationship to be featured on the show, and Zoe opened up about how it put an underlying strain on their relationship.
