Scheana Shay spent much of last season of Vanderpump Rules in a relationship with Rob Valletta ... perhaps you've heard his name once or twice? But she revealed at the Season 6 reunion that he had broken up with her and so she started off Season 7 single. Her fellow SURvers have watched her navigate relationships, from her marriage to ex-husband Mike Shay to her last relationship with Rob, and they have definitely weighed in with their opinions.
One friend who hasn't been shy about giving his two cents is Jax Taylor, who repeated rumors last season that Rob didn't love Scheana (see the video above). The two also sparred at the reunion, when Jax accused Scheana of not being there for him after his dad died. However, the two were able to move past their drama and now Jax is speaking out about Scheana's current love life.
"I think Scheana's just in a place right now where she's just — and I love Scheana, this is nothing against her at all, she's a great friend and she's very sweet — I think she's just a hopeless romantic, maybe co-dependent, just wants to be in a relationship, she jumps from relationship to relationship to relationship to relationship and it's just kind of like, dude, chill, take a moment, you know," he told The Daily Dish podcast. "I feel bad because these guys I feel like are not in it for the right reasons and she just wants to settle down, she'll just take whatever ... and it's sad to see, because you want to see her be happy, but she keeps finding the wrong guys. I mean, you're not going to find the right one from the cast of The Bachelor. [Scheana had been previously linked to The Bachelorette's Robby Hayes but said they are "just very good friends".] You're not. I mean, I don't know how many she's going to have to run through to figure it out."

However, Jax noted that who she dates is ultimately Scheana's decision, of course: "She's a grown ass woman and you can only tell her so much."
These days, Scheana is spending plenty of time with fellow SURver Adam Spott, who is also the person she tried to set up Brittany Cartwright with in the wake of Jax's cheating scandal last season. However, Scheana is staying tight-lipped about this friendship: "We’re always together. He’s my favorite person to be with," she told Us Weekly in September. “I don’t even know if we know… We’re hanging out. Yeah, but he’s still my best friend.”
Watch Scheana navigate single life, and follow Jax and Brittany as they plan their wedding, this season on Vanderpump Rules every Monday at 9/8c. Preview Monday's episode, below.
