Tana Mongeau’s take on the ‘secret dating’ madness
“I think it’s always fun to poke fun at how crazy the internet can be,” Mongeau said of the matter during her ‘Mukbang’ video with Paul. “They see one Snapchat of me somewhere and they’re like, ‘You’re automatically fucking and secretly dating and whatever!’”
Despite their apparent status as “just friends,” the two embraced in an off-screen kiss just as Paul’s vlog ended. The act prompted even more speculation from fans as to a possible romance between the two YouTubers.

Mongeau then uploaded a video to Snapchat, which fans noted had been taken in Paul’s bed at the Team 10 mansion. The two confirmed it was the same bed in their vlog on the topic, with Mongeau claiming that she’d done her best to keep the bed frame out of view.
Fans went wild after Tana Mongeau uploaded this video to Snapchat, noting how the headboard of the bed was markedly similar to Jake Paul’s bed, as seen in his vlogs.Mongeau’s alleged involvement with Paul follows both her split with Sousa and her highly-publicized breakup with former Disney actress Bella Thorne in late February, marking an emotional springtime for the YouTuber who claimed that Sousa had cheated on her.
Tana Mongeau’s YouTube stardom has even earned her an upcoming reality show on MTV, titled ‘No Filter: Tana Turns 21,’ which has yet to receive an official release date.
