Jake Paul (ex-husband; were married in 2019-2020)

Date of birth: January 17, 1997

Tana Mongeau is known by her outrageous behavior. Her wedding to the YouTube sensation was one of such things, which impressed her fans. Jake Paul and Tana Mongeau tied a knot in July 2019 in Las Vegas. That was not a legal marriage that was just a ceremony; nevertheless, it shocked lots of people. For them, it sounded like another weird thing, which Tana Mongeau did to attract public attention. But what does the star herself think about her short-lived sudden marriage?

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.

But their fast marriage didn’t work well. In January 2020 both announced their separation. Tana told, that they decided to get divorced because both wanted to focus on their activities, not on their relationships. But he remains her best friend.
