'Shahs of Sunset' Shocker: Mike Shouhed's Ex Debuts New Boyfriend After Calling Off Engagement Following His Domestic Violence Arrest
Troubled Shahs of Sunset star Mike Shouhed's engagement is off, and his former fiancée, Paulina Ben-Cohen, already has a new boyfriend, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Paulina went radio silent on social media after Mike's domestic violence arrest last year; however, she came out with a bang by debuting her shiny new tattooed lover on social media. The move surprised Bravoholics as Paulina and Mike did not announce they had split.
She gave her followers a glimpse of her man on Sunday — and Shahs of Sunset fans quickly noted that her heavily inked partner was not Mike. Paulina never looked happier, posting a video of her smiling from ear to ear while hitting the town with her new stud.
"Knight with a king," Paulina captioned the clip while enjoying an NHL game with her boyfriend.
Thankfully, Mike's ex tagged him in the photos, so there's no mystery who her new lover is. Her man's name is Josh, and according to his Instagram profile, he's a proud dog dad, a "proud father" to possibly a little girl, and a 3x boxing champ.
Josh also revealed he's a man who likes vintage fashion and fast cars and has a passion for cooking.
Paulina also posted a PDA-filled video of her with Josh, showing the pair holding hands on a night out. Fans filled her comment section with applause for moving on from Mike, whom she got engaged to in 2021.
"Good for you—someone who respects you & takes you serious," one person wrote. "Glad u moved on," added another. "Thank god so happy to see you happy. You deserve this and nothing less. You’ve been through a lot," posted a third.
