Despite experiencing a great deal of heartbreak during the finale of The Bachelorette Season 21, it looks like Jenn Tran is already ready for her next man.
And before you ask, no, he is not a reality television personality…
For those who are unfamiliar with how The Bachelorette season 21 ended, finalists Devin Strader and Marcus Shoberg met Jenn’s family, and — only after her brother hit them with a bevy of tough questions — Jenn determined that Devin was the one to whom she wanted to get engaged on finale night.
The leading lady even went so far as to propose to Devin in a shocking turn of events. How wild is that?
Despite leaving the show as happy as can be, the “After The Final Rose” television special revealed that there was trouble in paradise after all between Jenn and Devin.
According to the New Jersey native — who took the stage during “After The Final Rose” to break the news — Devin broke off their engagement shortly after The Bachelorette season 21 came to a close, claiming that he never loved her and saying he regretted accepting her proposal.
Receiving a great deal of support from Bachelor Nation after enduring such a devastating finale — where she was forced to watch her engagement footage while sitting side-by-side with her ex-fiancé — the 26-year-old has seemingly shut the door on both The Bachelorette and Devin once and for all, reflecting on her tumultuous journey in a tear-jerking Instagram post.
Fortunately, her luck has not completely run out, as Jenn is already ready for a brand-new boo: Cleveland Cavaliers star Max Strus.

Jenn stopped by The Viall Files podcast on Wednesday, September 11 — hosted by former Bachelor and Bachelorette star Nick Viall — where she was asked what the future holds now that she is single.
“Have the DMs been open? Have you been asked on any dates?” Viall asked, and naturally, Jenn spilled all the tea.
Those who are eager for Jenn to find her “forever person,” however, are likely to be disappointed as she is not ready to date after parting ways with her former fiancé.
Even if her celebrity crush were to ask her out:
“I truthfully can’t. I think if the hottest man alive — if Jayson Tatum, my celebrity crush — came up to me to go on a date, I don’t think I can say ‘yes’ yet, because it would be messy, but if he wanted to go on a friend date, I would.”
She added: “I just feel like I’m at a place where I think I’m gonna have a little bit of trust issues for a while, just to be transparent here.”
And, of course, Jenn is still reeling after Devin leaked extensive private text conversations between the pair via social media:
That was a serious invasion of my privacy. It’s hard to get over that.
Jenn then confirmed that the Boston Celtics star is dating Grammy Award-winner Ella Mai, swiftly swapping her celebrity crush out of respect for their relationship.
She then used an opportunity on The Viall Files to shoot her shot with another basketball player:
“I’m switching my celebrity crush. Max Strus, if you’re out there, and you’re single, I’m here, and I’m ready.”
As to whether sparks will eventually fly between Jenn and Max, we’ll be keeping close watch on both individuals via social media for any updates.
Until then, Jenn will be back on our television screens as a part of Dancing With the Stars Season 33 in a scant few days, ready to begin her healing journey in the ballroom.
To see whether Jenn takes home the coveted Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy, tune into ABC or Disney Plus Tuesdays for brand-new episodes of the beloved competition show, beginning Tuesday, September 17.
