Paradise doesn’t last forever. Josh Goldstein and Shannon St. Clair have broken up after nearly one year of dating.
“As you guys know, Shannon has been in PA the last few weeks supporting her sister with the birth of her niece. She’s been figuring out her next career move, and has always had a passion for skincare,” the Love Island USA alums wrote in a joint Instagram statement on Friday, June 17, sharing an update on their relationship status. “Although she loves FL, she has decided to go back to school to become an esthetician and be closer to the baby.”
The Temple University alum, 26, had relocated from her Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, hometown after their reality TV tenure to Florida, where the former baseball player, 24, resides and works as an online personal trainer.
“It has always been a dream of his to live in FL and start his own business, and he’s doing just that! We love this life we’ve built together, but sometimes timing is everything,” their statement continued. “It certainly has been hard being apart, and we’ve been trying to take the right steps to further both of our careers. We have created so many memories and achievements together over this past year. From love to tragedy and everything in between, we have been by each other’s side with support, friendship, and the greatest love for each other that words cannot even begin to describe. No one can take that away from us.”
The now-exes were part of the starting lineup on Love Island USA season 3, which began airing on CBS in July 2021. After coupling up in the debut episode, they quickly connected on a deeper level and became the Hawaiian villa’s first official boyfriend and girlfriend. Less than one month later, the pair shocked their fellow contestants
