‘The Challenge’ Star Jenna Compono Explains Her Relationship With Zach Nichols After Elimination

Jenna Compono wants to set the record straight. On Tuesday’s installment of “The Challenge: Invasion of the Champions” the MTV star and her former boyfriend, champion Zach Nichols, teased the idea of rekindling their once failed romance.

After making their MTV cast mates and viewers question if they would get back together, Zach made an early departure from the show in episode 7. His leave came after he lost in a heated elimination ceremony with fellow champ Darrell Taylor. Last viewers saw Jenna she was in tears following Zach’s elimination. On Wednesday, Jenna explained her emotions towards her ex on Twitter.

“Just had to put that out there,” Jenna captioned a long statement on her and Zach’s relationship. Read her full statement below.

Previously, Jenna defended her decision to support Zach in the game. “Just [because] we didn’t work out doesn’t mean he’s a terrible person,” Jenna told one fan. “Regardless I want to see him do good... it’s just the type of person I am.”

Zach, on the other hand, has not addressed his scenes with Jenna on “The Challenge: Invasion of the Champions” on social media.

Jenna confirmed her split from Zach in February 2016 following her stint on “The Challenge: Battle of the Bloodlines.” Their breakup occurred after Jenna called Zach only for him to address her another woman’s name: Brooke. Zach was later revealed to be in a relationship with the woman he mistook Jenna for, athlete Brooke Wells.

While Jenna and Zach were not partnered up on this season of “The Challenge,” Jenna previously told International Business Times she wouldn’t be surprised if MTV put them together for a future “Rivals” season.
