Season 1 of Netflix’s ‘Cheat: Unfinished Business’ introduces eight former couples getting one last shot at salvaging their relationships. Among them were Tegan Connor and Shaun Peach, whose relationship served as one of the most prominent examples of a love story that faced real challenges. Their journey began with a casual date through a dating app, which soon became an undeniable connection. Their bond grew rapidly from there, and within weeks, they became inseparable. However, everything ended in chaos when Shaun’s infidelity shattered the trust between them, and eventually, their relationship. However, they arrived at the retreat hoping to rebuild the broken trust and bond.
Tegan and Shaun Failed to Make Any Progress in Rebuilding Their Relationship
Tegan Connor and Shaun Peach’s connection took a dramatic turn when the former received a message from another woman claiming that the latter had cheated on her. Not only had he been unfaithful, but he had also lied to the lady about his relationship status. The betrayal deepened when his former partner received a voice note in which he asked the woman to keep the incident a secret. Following their arrival on the show, they discussed the events of that night for the first time. In an emotional conversation, Shaun ended up admitting to cheating on her. He thoroughly apologized to her and insisted he wanted to make things right.
As the show progressed, Tegan and Shaun discovered that issues like their poor communication and emotional distance had begun to emerge. Although he continuously tried to make it up to her, she started pushing him away. Tegan felt that he had not changed as a person since the beginning. Their relationship reached a breaking point when she declared that she no longer loved him. That left Shaun heartbroken since his multiple initiatives to win her over had gone in vain. Although Tegan admitted that he had marriage in his mind, he realized they were stuck in a toxic loop. In episode 5, he made the difficult choice to leave the retreat for his own good.
Tegan and Shaun Have Kept No Contact With One Another After the Split
Tegan and Shaun were the first couple to leave the show early and confirmed that their relationship was over. During his departure, he claimed that they were not making any progress and seemed to be going in circles. Additionally, Tegan strictly set the boundaries, stating that she no longer wanted to keep in contact with him. During the final reckoning, Shaun revealed that the former duo had maintained no contact after they stepped away from the show. Shaun revealed that he had reached out to her with the message, “I hope in time we can be friends.”
However, the wounds were still too fresh for Tegan, who ended up blocking him and cutting off all contact permanently. According to her, Shaun was “selfish” in his decision to leave the retreat first. On the other hand, her former partner acknowledged that he was at peace with the fact that she no longer wanted him in her life. He further added in his own words, “You have this fantasy of this person you want. You’re the negative person that brings me down.” As of writing, Shaun and Tegan have permanently parted ways and are focusing on their respective lives. They no longer follow each other on Instagram, further solidifying the fact that their chapter of togetherness has finally come to a close.
