What Really Happened Between Love Is Blind Season 2s Shayne And Natalie
Love Is Blind is a highly popular dating reality show on Netflix. The streaming service first introduced the show to audiences in 2020, and since then three seasons have aired. The show is centered around the concept that people can find their perfect love match without ever laying eyes on them. Contestants date each other and even get engaged before they are given the opportunity to see their partner face to face.
One of the most dramatic ex-couples from the show are Shayne Jansen and Natalie Lee. The two got engaged while they were in the pods, but complications arose for the couple immediately. Fellow contestant Shaina Hurley was an ongoing thorn in their side, and Jansen’s behavior towards Lee continued to worsen. Though Lee declined marrying Jansen, their story was far from over at the end of season 2. Let’s get into what really happened between Jansen and Lee.
8 What Is Love Is Blind About?
Love Is Blind is a dating reality show on Netflix. Contestants join the show in the hopes of finding their one true love. The twist, however, is that they are unable to see the people they are dating until after they are already engaged.
Once engaged, the couples then go on a honeymoon and see if their relationships can work in the real world. The show does not have many success stories. In fact, no couple from season 2 of the show are still together. Some couples do seem to be withstanding the test of time. Amber and Matt Barnett from season 1 have a beautiful marriage and are determined to always keep their marriage fun and full of joy.
7 Shayne And Natalie’s Story On Love Is Blind
Shayne Jansen and Natalie Lee participated in season 2 of Netflix’s Love Is Blind. Like the other couples, their relationship began in the pods. Jansen ultimately proposed to Lee, but only after fellow contestant Shaina Hurley had ended her relationship with him.
Hurley was an ongoing problem for Lee and Jansen while on the streaming service’s show. Lee suspected something was going on between the two of them, though that was not the only problem the former couple faced. Jansen exhibited a great deal of aggression towards Lee during fights and would often verbally lash out. Fans did not root for them as a couple and thought Lee deserved much better.
6 Why Did Natalie Lee Not Marry Shayne Jansen?
Every Love Is Blind season ends with the couples’ wedding day. After walking down the aisle, the couples then determine in front of all of their friends and family if they will go through with the wedding. At the altar, Shayne Jansen said he wanted to marry Natalie Lee. However, Lee had a different answer.
Lee and Jansen got in a very intense and verbally aggressive fight the night before their wedding. Jansen said Lee was not only the worst thing that had ever happened to him, but also that he hated her. The argument caused Lee to completely re-think their relationship, and she ultimately chose not to marry Jansen at the end of Love Is Blind’s season 2. Lee later revealed to the Los Angeles Times that she had given Jansen a heads up before the wedding of her final decision not to marry him.
5 Shayne And Natalie Dated After Love Is Blind
Though many fans of Love Is Blind expected the rejection at the altar to be the end of Natalie Lee and Shayne Jansen’s story, that was far from the truth. After the show wrapped filming, Lee and Jansen decided to give their relationship another chance.
The former couple dated for several months between filming season 2 of Love Is Blind and the reunion special. They kept their relationship private from producers in order to see if the reasoning of their first breakup was due to the stress of filming. Jansen and Lee broke up before filming the reunion special, in which a lot of dirty laundry was aired out for audiences, specifically why they broke up for the second time.
4 Who Is Shaina Hurley?
Shaina Hurley was also a contestant on season 2 of Netflix’s Love Is Blind. She was briefly engaged to Kyle Abrams before calling it off due to personal and religious differences. When she was engaged to Abrams, however, she expressed her feelings for Natalie Lee’s fiancé Shayne Jansen.
Jansen and Hurley had a relationship while in the pods, but Hurley called it off. Jansen had just proposed to Lee when Hurley came back and asked for a second chance. Though Jansen stuck with Lee, the two continued to flirt throughout season 2 of Love Is Blind and after the show wrapped filming. Hurley has since moved on to marry Chris Lardakis, founder and CEO of Kanela Breakfast Club, after everything went down on Love Is Blind.
3 Did Shayne Cheat On Natalie With Shaina?
Shayne Jansen and Shaina Hurley have never publicly stated that they had an affair or exchanged flirtatious messages. Instead, Jansen and Hurley claim that Natalie Lee is a liar who needs to know when to move on and that they have a strictly platonic relationship. Jansen even went as far as to make accusations on The Bachelor’s Nick Viall’s podcast The Viall Files about Lee.
Fans of Love Is Blind, however, believe that Lee is telling the truth. Lee claims to have found inappropriate messages between Jansen and Hurley, and she said as much during the one-year-later reunion. Lee believes that Jansen and Hurley were having a secret relationship. Finding the messages between Jansen and Hurley was the reason Lee broke up with Jansen after Love Is Blind.

Netflix’s Love Is Blind released an After the Altar special in 2022 of the season 2 couples. The special had multiple episodes and showcased what the lives of the contestants were like in the real world after filming. A large subject of conversation was Shayne Jansen and Natalie Lee’s former relationship, specifically the involvement of Shaina Hurley, but Lee claims a lot was cut out of the special.
“What I do have is again, text messages and emails with Shayne, talking about him un-sending Instagram messages, deleting messages and those DMs with Shaina, so, that’s something that I talked about that didn’t make the cut, that I think kind of would have helped with the story,” Lee exclusively told Entertainment Weekly. The messages in reference occurred between Jansen and Hurley while Jansen was dating Lee. These messages made Lee extremely uncomfortable and were the cause of their second break up.

Ex-girlfriend Natalie Lee was unaware that Jansen had auditioned for the show.
Lee took to her Instagram stories to share how she felt about the news and the upsetting nature of the auditioning process. “Shayne and I were both approached to apply for it while we were in a relationship (casting didn’t know we were together at the time),” she wrote. “We told each other we declined the opportunity, but I later found out he actually didn’t decline and started the casting process in Nov 2021 without my knowledge at the time, while we were still together.”
