Why are people questioning Jett’s sexuality?
Jett’s sexuality became a topic of speculation after a scene in Bling Empire: New York, where he asked his co-star Blake Abbie, an editor and model, whether he was gay.

Jett then implied that he was curious because he wanted to know if he had a chance with Blake.
The conversation continued in a later episode, where Jett invited Blake to a photoshoot at a skating rink. Jett asked Blake to pose in suggestive ways, which made Blake uncomfortable and angry. Jett also called Blake an “equal opportunity humper”, which further irritated Blake.
The awkward interactions between Jett and Blake sparked rumors among viewers that Jett might be gay or bisexual, and that he was flirting with Blake. Some fans also wondered if Jett and Lynn’s marriage was genuine or a cover-up.
