'Shahs of Sunset' star Mike Shouhed says he won't propose to his girlfriend on TV: 'It's a lot to share'
Mike Shouhed of 'Shahs of Sunset' is a happy man and has vowed not to repeat his mistakes again. He has been dating Paulina Ben-Cohen and is content with the way his relationship with her is panning out. But, the viewers will get only a glimpse of it because he is wary of oversharing his personal life on television and social media.
In a chat with MEA WorldWide, Mike elaborated on how social media affected his marriage with Jessica Parido and he wouldn't wish the same on what he shares with Paulina. Jessica and Mike had started dating and later got engaged and married on the show but he will not let this happen again.
When asked if he would want another TV proposal, Mike said: "No, I don't think I'll ever do that again. That was a lot to share. Now when I see flashbacks of it hurts me. Even though it's a failed marriage, at that point in time I felt that was the person I was going to spend the rest of my life with. And for it to now unfold the way it did majorly because of my fault, it's still hard to watch."
While this might be a point of concern for viewers who love watching Mike and Paulina onscreen, because of his choice to keep his private life off television it would mean limited screentime for the couple. However, Mike confirmed that Paulina is going to stick around.
"You're gonna see a lot of her. She's dynamic, her energy is amazing, she's beautiful, she's kind, she's sweet and the camera loves her, she looks great on TV. And, the cast really started to fall in love with her as well. She plays a huge role in my life," he shared and added that Paulina was hesitant to be on TV at first but later was convinced they could play it by ear and see what happens.
Apart from this, Mike has a lot going on on the work front too. He is remodeling his parents' home, working on his new CBD line - Au Sante - and generally on a lot of construction work.
