While the premise of Netflix’s Love Is Blind is to help singles find their perfect match, the experiment hasn’t come without drama.
During season 2 of the dating show, which premiered in February 2022, multiple love triangles blossomed. In one corner, Shayne Jansen connected with both Natalie Lee and Shaina Hurley, and in another, Jarrette Jones was smitten by Iyanna McNeely and Mallory Zapata. In both instances, the men were subsequently torn while trying to decide which woman to propose to.
Shaina, for her part, ultimately accepted a proposal from Kyle Abrams despite her strong feelings for Shayne. The hairstylist even informed Shayne — who was set to pop the question to Natalie — of her interest while Kyle’s mother’s ring sat on her finger.
“It took me a while to open up in the pods. It took me longer than I thought,” Shaina exclusively told Us Weekly. “I think everything happens for a reason. It was organic [with Shayne], I guess, you could say. There’s some regrets. I just wish I was a little bit more forthright from the beginning [and] kind of prepared myself more, but can you prepare yourself?”
Shaina eventually broke up with Kyle during the group’s trip to Mexico, citing different religious beliefs as the major issue.
While season 2 of the reality show packed a dramatic punch, it wasn’t the only installment to bring unexpected confrontations, breakups and love triangles.
