During a Q&A session with her social media followers on Monday night, the fitness model responded to a fan who asked whether she and Dan were an item.
"Dan is such a beautiful human and I hold him close to my heart," she began her response.
"Our stars aren't quite aligned at this point, but I'm grateful we met."
Her confession follows a Friday night hook-up on a Melbourne street, plus a Saturday night out with friends.
But as quickly as things with Dan went south, Vanessa's fans turned their attention to the sister of her ex-boyfriend Rhyce Power, who also famously dated Dan.
She recently took an AVO out on Rhyce after an alleged incident in Thailand.
"Thoughts on Jess Power," quizzed another follower, to which Vanessa gave a scathing reply.
"Prime example of why it is important to raise kids in a healthy environment."
Will Jess hit back?
