Shayne Jansen/instagram Jansen was one of the stars of season two of Netflix's hit dating show, where singles talk to each other for days and get engaged before they ever get to see the other person. He proposed to Natalie Mina Lee and finally got to meet her in person, but the night before their wedding, Natalie and Shayne, 32, had a massive argument — one which Natalie wasn't able to shake on their big day, and she decided not to go through with their marriage.

"I will always be bonded to him through this experience and journey that we had. I wish him all the best, I wish him a lot of happiness," she said. "I fell in love blindly and I think Shayne did, as well."
