Mongeau and Jake Paul held a wedding ceremony in Las Vegas in July 2019, but both later acknowledged that the marriage was not legally registered.
In her interview with Zach Sang, she told, “That wedding taught me a lot. First of all, I understood that I still was a little impulsive. I am the type of person, who lives in the moment. We were so happy when we decided to get married. But I felt lonely all the time.”
They started dating in 2019. The couple announced their relationships in a very odd way – they simply posted a photo in bed on Instagram. Previously to Jake, Tana dated both, men and women – she was in love with the Instagram star Somer Hollingsworth, dated the actress Bella Thorne and was in relationships with the male model Brad Sousa.
But she felt, that her relationships with Jake Paul were different from the others. “When I am talking to Jake, I feel that nobody else in the world can understand me like him. We are almost the same, we had the same childhoods”, Mongeau opened up once.
They announced their separation in January 2020. Because the ceremony was not a legal marriage, there was no divorce proceeding.
