During a fan Q&A on her Instagram Stories, one of her followers asked: “Why are you so closed off / secret when it comes to your boyfriend and love life? You don’t share much."

Shaughna responded: “It’s my boyfriend’s personal choice to not be posted on my social media so I respect it. Whether he changes his mind in the future I don’t know.”

"But for now he would rather not and that’s okay with me,” added Shaughna, “He doesn’t have any social media at all! I guess I make up for the both of us."

Another person then asked if she plans on sharing her child on social media once she gives birth, to which the former islander responded: “Truthfully, I don't really know the answer. As it stands, I plan on sharing pictures of my baby, but that could change once the baby is here.

“I’m not gonna put any pressure on myself to feel like I have to share or have to keep them private.”

Meanwhile, she’s decided to keep their baby girl's name private for now, revealing she and her partner have picked out a name they ‘both love’ if they welcome a daughter.
