Jonathan Scott’s ex-girlfriend is engaged again — and the timeline has HGTV fans doing the math.

Jacinta Kuznetsov, the producer who spent two and a half years dating Property Brothers star Jonathan Scott, announced her engagement to filmmaker, bar owner, and shark advocate Will Allen in late November 2018. The news landed just seven months after Kuznetsov and Scott confirmed their amicable split in April 2018, and it wasted no time sparking chatter across social media about how quickly she’d moved on.

• Kuznetsov and Scott dated roughly two and a half years before announcing their breakup in April 2018.
• Scott publicly described the split as free of “drama or negativity,” saying the two would remain supportive friends.
• Kuznetsov revealed her engagement to Will Allen on Instagram with a photo of her ring, thanking him for “filling my life with love and laughter.”

The Background of Jacinta Kuznetsov

Before the tabloid attention, Kuznetsov built her career behind the camera. She worked as a development producer for Scott Brothers Entertainment and served as a producer on the Emmy-nominated series Property Brothers, giving her a front-row seat to the same HGTV machine that made Jonathan Scott and his twin, Drew, household names. Her relationship with Jonathan made her something of a fixture in that world well before their split became public.

The April Breakup

When Scott and Kuznetsov ended things in April 2018, Scott addressed it publicly and kept the tone deliberately low-key. He said the two had simply gone their separate ways, framed the split as amicable, and made clear he intended to stay on good terms with her rather than turn it into a public feud — a contrast to how some celebrity splits play out, like the messier fallout chronicled in Lisa Bonet and Jason Momoa’s divorce news.

The Engagement Announcement

Seven months later, Kuznetsov made her new relationship official. Her Instagram post featured a photo showing off her engagement ring from Will Allen, a filmmaker known for his bar ownership and shark conservation work, alongside a caption thanking him for the love and laughter he’d brought into her life.

Thank you for always filling my life with love and laughter.

The quick turnaround drew plenty of reaction online, with some fans genuinely happy for Kuznetsov and others openly questioning whether seven months was enough time to move from one serious relationship into an engagement. Kuznetsov addressed the speculation directly, stating that her relationship with Allen began only after her split from Scott and that she would never have done anything to hurt him during their time together.

Scott’s Response

For his part, Jonathan Scott didn’t dodge the story. He formally wished his former partner “the very best always,” a statement that lined up with the supportive tone he’d struck back in April. It’s the kind of clean, no-hard-feelings exit that stands out compared to the friendships-turned-fallouts detailed in celebrity splits that went the other way, and it left little room for the “bad blood” narrative some fans were hoping to find.

No wedding date has surfaced for Kuznetsov and Allen, and Scott has stayed focused on his business with Drew rather than commenting further. For now, the story is exactly what both sides have said it is — two people who moved on separately, seven months apart, without either one throwing a punch on the way out.
