Scheana Shay Had a Relationship With a Mystery Woman

When Scheana met a woman she identified only as “DD” at 2019’s Stagecoach Music Festival, “We had this instant connection.” Bonding over a mutual love for Sam Hunt, they continued to spend time together in L.A., kissing at TomTom one night.

For the next few months, Scheana said, “It became this weird thing where we would get drunk, make out, and tell people we were dating.”

The situation left Scheana confused, wondering if she was bisexual, lonely and over men, or simply attracted to this one woman.

“It felt like more than friendship but not enough to admit or commit to a relationship,” said Scheana, sharing that she worried about what her conservative relatives and VPR viewers would think. “Part of me wishes I’d expressed to DD how I was feeling, to see if she felt the same, but the fear of rejection outweighed finding out what we could be for me.”

Then they met Brock at another music festival that September. Though he initially hit on DD, she wrote, “their personalities just didn’t click,” leaving things to snap into place with him and Scheana.

Madly in love following a November trip to Australia and Bali, the pair were out with DD, “and, just like old times, she kissed me,” said Scheana, describing how Brock lost his cool. “He said, ‘You’re my girlfriend now. You don’t do that s–t. You guys had a thing and that ends now or I’m gone.’
