In a statement, she said she understood that many people had questions about how her life had changed since Tanner’s passing. She explained that she chose to share her story personally so that her followers could hear directly from her rather than through speculation.
Shay revealed that she and her late husband had spoken openly about the future before his death. According to her, Tanner had hoped that one day she would find someone who would love both her and their daughter, AmyLou, while respecting the family they had built together.
She said those conversations gave her strength to move forward and embrace a new beginning without forgetting the memories she shared with her late husband.
The influencer encouraged followers to watch the full video she posted online, saying it explains her emotions, Tanner’s wishes, and the reasons behind her decision to remarry.
Shay stressed that starting a new relationship does not diminish the love she continues to hold for Tanner. She said he will always remain an important part of her life and will forever be remembered as AmyLou’s father.
She also recalled one of Tanner’s lasting messages, urging people to treat others with kindness and to assume good intentions in difficult situations.
Her announcement received widespread attention on social media, with many followers offering messages of support and wishing her happiness as she begins the next phase of her life while continuing to honour the memory of her late husband.
