Who is Samantha Jo dating?
Since 2020, Samantha Jo has been dating a man named Jerryl. Although she frequently features him on her Instagram, she keeps their relationship relatively private.
The first photo of Jerryl appeared on Samantha's Instagram on Nov. 26, 2020, as part of a Thanksgiving post celebrating the people she was grateful for. It wasn't until Aug. 8, 2021, that she mentioned his name in an Instagram caption.
As of now, Samantha has not disclosed Jerryl's full name or tagged him in her posts.
In 2022, the couple decided to break up for reasons they chose not to disclose. Samantha addressed their split in a YouTube video posted on Sept. 30, 2022. However, after a year apart, Samantha and Jerryl reconciled — and now they're about to become parents!
Samantha Jo announced her pregnancy in August 2024.
On Aug. 22, 2024, Samantha revealed that she and Jerryl are expecting their first child together! She shared the exciting news on Instagram and YouTube, playfully referring to the baby as an "oopsy baby."
Samantha admitted, "This journey is not a journey I was expecting to go on, it was not on my bingo card. In fact, just a couple of months ago, I was told that I was not going to be able to have kids naturally."
She also expressed a blend of excitement, fear, and gratitude before gushing about the support she's received from Jerryl, their families, and friends.
