On Friday, Jenna, whose real name is Jenna Mourey, and Julien took dogs Bunny, Loni, Kermit, and Peach for a stroll.
Jenna opted for a casual look in a red flannel shirt, yoga pants, and sneakers, while Julien wore a T-shirt and shorts.
While she’s had bright red and even green hair in the past, Jenna’s locks were dark blond on her latest outing.
The next day, Jenna took her Italian greyhounds, Loni and Bunny, out alone.
She wore a black sweatshirt, yoga pants, and a beanie as she guided her pups around a local park.
Jenna and Julien, who have been together since 2013, still live in their $3.8 million mansion in the upscale Sherman Oaks neighborhood of Los Angeles.
They married in November 2022, after he announced their engagement the year prior.
Though Julien is still active on TikTok and Instagram, Jenna has not appeared in public in nearly five years.

After more than a decade of social media fame, Jenna announced on June 25, 2020, that she was quitting all online platforms and had no plans to return.
“I feel like we are at a time where we are purging ourselves of anything and everything toxic,” Jenna said in a tearful YouTube video.
She admitted she made mistakes in her early vlogging career and was “not completely unproblematic.”
At the time, Jenna was slammed for joking about Asian men in a past video and wearing blackface in an old clip about Nicki Minaj.
“It’s awful, it doesn’t need to exist, it’s inexcusable, it’s not okay,” Jenna said about the first video.
“I’m incredibly sorry if this offended you then, now, whenever. It doesn’t need to exist.
“It shouldn’t have existed. I shouldn’t have said that ever.
“It’s not cool, it’s not cute, it’s not okay, and I’m embarrassed that I ever made that.”
“I’ve tried my best to grow up and to be a better person.
“And first and foremost, I want everyone to know that I’ve always been a two-way street. And that anytime that you criticize me and tell me that you would like me to do better or to do something differently, that I always try to do that.
“And I try to make fun content, inclusive content, things that don’t offend people or upset people, and that’s kind of where I am.”
She concluded the apology video by saying, “I think I’m just going to move on from this channel for now. I don’t know if that’s forever. I don’t know how long it’s going to be.
“I just want to make sure that the things I put into the world are not hurting anyone.”
MISSING JENNA
Though fans have begged Jenna to return, she has remained totally silent on social media ever since.
In a Reddit group dedicated to her videos, a fan recently said, “I feel her absence so much right now with current events just feeling suffocating.
“She was like a light in the darkness and the world is getting darker.”
“Nobody can replace Jenna!” another follower chimed in.
“I’m begging on my knees for her to come back at this point,” a third said.
