A suspicious overlap? Love Is Blind alum Natalie Lee claimed that her ex Shayne Jansen started exploring other dating show options while they were still together.The consulting manager, 30, made the accusation while responding to a TikTok commenter who asked her whether she’ll watch Shayne, 33, on Netflix’s upcoming series Perfect Match. “He was casting for the show in Nov 2021 while we were in a relationship (obviously behind my back),” Natalie wrote earlier this month. “So HELL YES I WILL BE WATCHING lol.”Shayne, however, disputed Natalie’s version of events, sharing screenshots of text messages via his Instagram Story that were seemingly from his ex-fiancée.

In one message, Natalie allegedly encouraged Shayne to join the series, writing: “I really want you to enjoy life because this show for you is a once in a lifetime opportunity.”After Shayne posted the text messages, Natalie took to her own Instagram Story to clarify the timeline.

She claimed casting agents for Perfect Match approached both her and Shayne for the new series in September 2021 without realizing that the duo were secretly dating again after splitting on Love Is Blind.

According to Natalie, both she and Shayne declined the offer, but she later found out he “didn’t decline” and had started the casting process.“While Shayne was filming the new show in Feb 2022, he texted me numerous times he wanted to leave midway through filming because he still had feelings for me after we saw each other for [the] first time since our breakup at the reunion show taping,” Natalie wrote, claiming that the texts Shayne shared were from February 2022 rather than November 2021. “Knowing there was little hope for our relationship and how excited he was to do another reality
