Family[]

Jay’s relationship with his mother is unknown due to the fact she left him at the Junkyard when he was young.
In the "Quest for the Lost Powers", it is revealed that after losing his powers to stop the Crystal King, Jay felt a hole in his heart due to feeling he lost a connection to his mother and wondered if she left him was a good reason or if there was a reason at all.
Cliff Gordon[]
Cliff Gordon's shrine of his son, Jay.
Jay was a big fan of Cliff Gordon ever since he was a kid. In Season 6, Jay had learned that he was adopted and that Cliff is his real father, which left him very shocked and excited at the thought. To remember his son he never knew, Cliff kept a shrine up with Jay's later life as a ninja, collecting many pictures of Jay, but he chose not to introduce himself to his son. Despite this, the shrine to Jay does indicate that Cliff was proud of him, despite not meeting him.
In "The Way Back", Jay reveals that he considers Ed to be his 'real dad' due to having raised him, although he does previously acknowledge Cliff is his biological father.
After Nadakhan was defeated, all of the wishes have been undone and Jay has not received his inheritance yet.

Ed[]
Jay and his adoptive father
Ed is Jay's adoptive dad. Jay is very close to his adoptive father and has inherited his habit of inventing things. In Season 6, when Jay made a wish to Nadakhan he received a letter saying his father passed away and he has inherited his fortune. Immediately, Jay rushed to his parent's home where he called out for his father only for Ed to come out alive and well. Jay was relieved at the news but questioned the contents of the letter; Ed and his wife decided it was time to tell Jay the truth and inform him that he was adopted.

By the end of "Wishmasters," they end up being the only remaining ninja, and thus Nya had no choice but to put up with him. During "The Last Resort," Nya reveals to Jay that she also saw her future with him, and confirms that he is the one for her before pushing him through the Traveler's Tea portal. During the finale, Nya dies, and Jay uses his last wish to erase the events of the season, with only them remembering the events. They have a moment on the rooftop, which is broadcasted all over Ninjago as the episode ends.
In Season 7, Jay and Nya are still in a relationship. In "The Hatching," Jay consoles Nya when she feels conflicted about her identity as Samurai X and the Water Ninja. In "Lost in Time," Jay shouts for Nya after she goes into the time portal with Kai and Master Wu. He is delighted when she returns, and joins the group hug with her family.

He finally pops the question in "Endings" before fighting the Oni one last time. Nya accepts and gives her half of the medallion while putting the other half on his chest for the rest of the episode.
Nya says goodbye to Jay
Throughout Seabound, Jay continuously assures Nya that she will find a way to regain control of her powers. He also shows the most worry of the team when Nya and Maya are captured by Kalmaar, which is what inspired him to use his Lightning to re power the Hydro Bounty despite this putting his life at risk. In the season finale, Nya merges with the Endless Sea to defeat Wojira and save his life, she leaves her fellow ninja to become apart of the ocean. Her departure hit Jay the hardest and sent him into a state of depression.

After his defeat, Ras sent Jay away, resulting in Nya being hurt. After losing to Nokt, she then decides to go search for him in order to get him to remember her and his family.
Jay reunited with Nya during the battle with Thunderfang, albeit in disguise, due to becoming a bounty hunter. During the battle, Jay injured his leg. After initially refusing, Jay eventually agreed to go back to the monastery with Nya to recover from his injury. While working together to find Arin's parents, Nya attempted to get Jay to remember their relationship, only to find he only cares for his payment. He was he even grossed out when Lloyd offered him and Nya to pretend to be married for their mission in finding Arin's parents, upsetting Nya. Later, he expressed that romantic relationships make no sense to him, which hurt Nya's heart. In fact, due to Nya's stubbornness and insisting that he's a ninja only added fuel to the fire that Jay believes she is lying to him. After Jay left, Nya's words stuck with him, and he came to save her from Zarkt. After he saved her, he admitted that being with her makes him want to be a better person, leading her to hug him, which he seemingly accepted.

They grew closer throughout the series, with Jay being distraught by Zane's death after he sacrificed himself to defeat the Overlord.
In Season 4, Jay was looking at his portrait of his friends in sadness and reflecting on his time together with Zane. When Lloyd suggested replacing Zane, Jay heavily protested against the decision to do so but was shocked to learn that his friend was still alive and traveled to Chen's Island to find him. While imprisoned by Chen, Jay was reunited with Zane and was elated to see his friend again and complimented his new form.
As the series goes on they still get along, in season 5 where Jay tried to fix Zane's malfunctioning voice and modifying it for comical purposes.
In later seasons, they get along even if their personalities contrast with the others. Zane appears to take note of Jay's habits as he knew Nadakhan visited him and saw that he was acting out of the ordinary.
During Season 9, Jay's accepting of being stranded in the Realm of Oni and Dragons disturbed Zane. After Jay became himself again, Zane was relieved and noted this to Kai.

In "Game of Masks", it is shown that Lloyd trusts Jay enough to accuse Harumi of being the Quiet One, as Harumi knew of Lloyd's Oni heritage, which she could only know if Jay had told her or if she was the Quiet One.
During Season 9, they are mostly separated since Jay was in the Realm of Oni and Dragons and Lloyd was in Ninjago.
In "How to Build a Dragon," Jay hears Lloyd's voice on a dragon hunter's radio and worried for his friend.

When the Merge occurred, Jay and Lloyd were separated with Lloyd being worried about him. Lloyd appeared to develop a low opinion on Jay, as he viewed Jay as the worst ninja student, recalling how Jay once destroyed the South Wing during his training.

Lloyd managed to reunite with Jay during the Tournament of Sources where he was shocked that Jay was working with Ras and had lost his memory.

Back at the Monastery, Jay’s rude behavior and shattered soul frustrated Lloyd, who admitted he only partly trusted him after everything that happened. Lloyd also found himself irritated by Jay’s naïve trust in the Administration Agents—especially given that Lloyd and the others had made similar mistakes before (like Zane trusting Vex immediately after his memory was wiped). It is also implied Lloyd had no intention to keep his word on doubling what his client (unknown to him was Zeatrix) was paying Jay and just hoped Jay's memory will come back on it own.

Despite this, The two agree on aggressive tactics to infiltrate The Administration but Lloyd rejected the ideas because it wasn't the ninja way.

After Jay left the City of Temples, he thought that he might have the records to help him find his parents. It’s unknown how he feels about him after he left the Ninja.
After Jay became a bounty hunter, he was after Ras who Zeatrix placed a bounty on and Arin fought him without even knowing who he really was. At first Jay only went after Ras but when Arin intervened too much Jay decided to directly fight him, and had the upper hand if Sora didn't intervene.

Before meeting him, Nadakhan impersonated Jay and the other ninja by framing them for crimes they didn't commit and was pleased to hear they were locked away in Kryptarium Prison.

After Nadakhan was poisoned, Jay couldn't be relieved since Delara (who possessed Nya) took the shot as well. With Nya dying in Jay's arms, Jay used his final wish to undo Nya's death and that Clouse hadn't freed the Djinn. Because his wish wasn't selfish, the weakened Nadakhan granted it.
