I Have An Announcement: Jared And Britani Finally Hard Launched

Love her or loathe her, Britani Bateman’s thirsty behavior on her debut season as a friend of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City has certainly made an impression. Britani isn’t afraid to fully derail a heated discussion to scream “WHAT ABOUT ME?” and it’s that type of delusion that is both horrifying and entertaining enough to keep fans hooked on all mess Britani. Britani’s biggest trainwreck this season has been trying to get the other ladies to take her sloppy situationship with Jared Osmond seriously. (Mary couldn’t even pick Jared out of a lineup, let alone support Britani’s multiple failed attempts at commitment with the guy.) But now it seems time to raise a glass of Vida Tequila because Jared finally launched the on-and-off-again relationship as the real deal (we hope). Are Britani and Jared Osmond officially together? Their relationship timeline says a lot.

How did RHOSLC Britani and Jared Osmond meet?

Britani and Jared met in the tight-knit Utah social circles run by the Mormons. In said circles, Jared is basically the “Mormon version of Prince Harry” because of his lineage from singer Donny Osmond, according to her co-star Heather Gay.

Why did Britani and Jared Osmond break up?

Britani and Jared broke up after her friends pointed out that Jared’s Instagram post about a trip to Costco wasn’t really commitment. Britani was originally thrilled when Jared shared a pic of the two of them with the caption, “Sometimes you just have to push your best friend around Costco.” The RHOSLC ladies gave Jared shit for the post, which they didn’t consider an exclusive proclamation of love, and revealed that Jared had allegedly exchanged DMs with Angie’s eyebrow artist. This caused the couple to temporarily call it off.

Was Jared Osmond on The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City?

Yes, Jared appeared on the sixth episode of season 5 of RHOSLC after weeks of Britani filling in the group about their hot mess express relationship that had previously begun and ended “about sixteen times.” At the anniversary party of her co-star with low body count hair, Angie Katsanevas, Britani introduced a new date named Aaron into the mix. At the time, she and Jared had been on a break “for about two weeks at that point.” That didn’t stop Jared from showing up as a grand romantic gesture, which convinced Britani to take him back.

Did Jared Osmond cheat on Britani?

In an October 2024 episode of the RHOSLC aftershow (which was filmed after Britani took Jared back at Angie’s mafia party), Britani revealed that she and Jared were no longer together after reconciling for the millionth time. The reason they had been broken up “for about three months,” this time around, was that Jared had dating apps on his phone. After Britani found out “shady stuff going on behind [her] back” and he “wouldn’t show [her] his phone,” she called it off. Lisa Barlow called Jared a “flirt king” and “player” in the same episode.

Jared also was accused of getting flirty with Britani’s biggest opp, mother Mary Cosby, by sliding into her DMs. A Bravo fan account alleged the storyline would be dropping on an upcoming episode, and to get ahead of the smoke by clarifying he only considered Mary a “true friend.” The messages obtained by Bravo showed Jared calling Mary “a daughter of God” he feels “a spiritual connection to.” I mean, in Mormon culture, this actually could be rizz, no?

How long have Britani and Jared Osmond been together?

Technically, they’ve been involved since around June 2023, eight months before she started filming for season 5. That would bring their relationship to more than the year and a half mark if they had stayed together the whole time. Jared most recently recommitted to Britani (seemingly more than ever before) when he finally hard-launched their relationship on December 22, 2024. Jared got aggressively simpy about his “introducing [his] beautiful girlfriend,” explaining that when “an angel comes into your life that brings you happiness, peace, and love you hold on with both hands!”

Britani reciprocated the puppy love online with her own Instagram Story, calling Jared her “best friend,” “boyfriend” and “everything.” As seen on Salt Lake City, Brit Brit is down bad for the youngest Osmond, who has caused tension in her friendships and her relationships with her estranged daughters. So let’s just hope this time Jared can step up and stay loyal so that Britani doesn’t have to go back to her three-dates-a-night lifestyle. Otherwise, we’re DEF going to have to hear an announcement about it.
