The Instagram Reel was shared to Matthews' account with the caption “first time catching up” written on the video.

The short video sparked some confusion among fans in the comment section, with some suggesting it meant the couple had split. Even Matthews appeared to express her difficulties in keeping up with their relationship status in the caption of her post, writing, “I’m confused 👀. "

On the same day, Jen shared another video onInstagram, which saw her costars mouthing the words of another audio clip. The video had the words “The whole internet…” over it, as well as “Me:” to indicate that the clip was her response.

Neely and Matthews both lip synced, “Admit you’re in danger.” as Jen stood with a smile on her face and her arms crossed before looking confused as she lip synced back, “Who are you talking to right now?”

“No one knows the full story 🤍, " Jen captioned the post.

However, in a third video, shared to Neeley’sTikTokaccount on Oct. 12, Jen flashed her wedding ring as the lyrics “What kind of f—ery is this?” from Amy Winehouse’s song “Me and Mr. Jones” played in background. “You’re confused? I’m confused 👀, " Neeley wrote in the caption.

Despite the confusion among fans over some of her latest social media posts, a source told PEOPLE on Oct. 10 that therumors of a break up between Jen and Zac were unfounded, following fans' concern when they spotted Jen not wearing her wedding ring in aTikTok videoon Oct. 9.

At the end of the first season ofMormon Wives, Jen was struggling with the idea of relocating after Zac got accepted into a medical school in New York.

In September, PEOPLE confirmed the couple hadsold their homein Orem, Utah, although a source exclusively revealed thatJen was indeed back in Utahearlier this month around the same time the show was renewed.

The end of the season also saw costarJessi Ngatikaurarevealing Jen had told her that she is “leaving MomTok because of Zac.”

“He doesn’t want her associated with us. I am really sad that this is just a continuous pattern that’s not getting better,” she added to MomTok star,Demi Engemann. Ngatikaura then expressed her concern that Zac had issued Jen with an ultimatum, before Jen and Zac were seen exploring New York City, where Zac would study.

The couple began dating in 2018 after meeting on a Mormon dating app calledMutual, before Zac then proposed to his now-wife in January 2019. They now share two children.

In September, Jen shared a sweet tribute to Zac onInstagram, writing, “We were just kids when we got married. Young, naive, and inexperienced, we truly had no idea what we were getting ourselves into.”

She continued to express faith in their marriage despite their differences. “We didn’t always see eye to eye, and a lot of times, we still don’t. But that’s what marriage is, we keep trying,” she wrote.

The post included a selection of images of the two of them, along with a photo of their first house and of Zac hugging their children. She added in the caption that Zac isn’t “perfect” but has been supportive of her goals, including her social media career and her fitness lifestyle.
