What Happened To These Reality Stars When The Cameras Stopped Rolling?
Nothing good can last forever—and sometimes, it’s the most scandalous and compelling reality stars who get fired, quit, or simply fade away once the cameras stop rolling. There's The Bachelor’s biggest villains, Love Is Blind’s breakout stars, and the messiest Real Housewives to consider. So, what happened to these reality stars when the cameras stopped rolling? Well…a lot.
1. Love Is Blind Left Us With Unanswered Questions
When it came time for the stars of Love Is Blind season 2 to hit the altar, fans were left with a lot of shocking surprises (and anger at Shake, but we’ll get to that later). One of the biggest surprises came when Natalie Lee refused to marry Shayne Jansen, citing a big fight they’d had the night before. Shayne’s devastated reaction made it seem like Natalie had blindsided him—but Natalie later revealed the truth about that moment.
She actually let Shayne know in advance that while she’d walk up the aisle, she wouldn’t say “I do” when she got to the altar. So, why did he act so surprised?
2. They Dated In Secret For Months
Natalie thinks it’s because he was still holding out hope that she might change her mind. And while she may not have agreed to marriage, that doesn’t mean that she and Shayne parted ways after their ill-fated trip to the altar.
About a week later, they began seeing each other again, and Natalie still wore her engagement ring. After a few months, they broke things off and took a cooling period before the reunion.
Ultimately, they stayed friends and both say they cherish the time they spent together. The path to love isn’t always a straight one—especially when paperwork is involved…
3. This Fan Favorite Couple Had A Rocky Relationship
Of all the couples on 90 Day Fiancé, Olga and Steven were among the most sympathetic characters. They were incredibly young and Olga’s experience giving birth in a Russian hospital was downright scary. On top of that, their venomous fights made it feel like they were doomed to split up—and that’s exactly what they did in October of 2020 after just over a year of marriage.
Still, the cute pair still had another surprise up their sleeves.
4. They Just Announced Huge News
In October of 2021, a year after their split, Olga and Stephen confirmed that they were back together—but they came up with even bigger news in March of 2022. The against-all-odds couple announced that they just found out that Olga was pregnant again. After a big move to Brooklyn, New York, the pair and their now three-year-old son Alex will welcome a baby in late 2022.
Starting a family young is never easy—but as the cast of Teen Mom has proved, some handle it better than others…
