Through headline-making social media posts, Shanna shared it all — and she didn’t hold back.

Shanna Says She’s Happy For Travis…Sort Of
Shortly after Travis and Kourtney went public in February, Shanna was asked about the new relationship. While she said she was happy for Travis, she managed to fit in a diss about the Kardashian family.
“He’s my friend and co-parent, and I want him to be happy and if being with her makes him happy, and she’s happy, I’m happy for both of them, honestly. He can handle that Kardashian drama,” Shanna told the paparazzi.
Shanna Likes A Comment Calling Kourtney a Downgrade
Shortly after Travis and Kourtney went public in February, fans flocked to Shanna’s Instagram to comment on the news. The drama really began when one commenter wrote that “Travis downgraded big time” and “that broad don’t got nothin’ on” the model. While Shanna didn’t speak out herself, she did like the comment, leading fans to believe she agreed.
When the news made headlines, Shanna tried to clear things up, letting fans know she hadn’t intended to like the comment. In the end, she simply deleted the whole thing from her page.
“A lot of times when I’m on my social media, I ‘like’ all the fans’ comments. I didn’t even know I ‘liked’ it until the press picked it up and it was all over the place. It was just kind of an unfortunate event, but I definitely wasn’t trying to start a social media war!” Shanna explained to Us Weekly.

“I’m very much over my ex. It’s been a long time. However, do I think some of the PDA that he’s doing with her is weird? [Yes],” Shanna told People.
However, in the same interview, Shanna said she was “genuinely happy” for the couple and that she wanted “the father of my kids to be happy and to have a partner that makes him happy…and a better father.” She noted that if Travis’ partner is good to her children, that’s all she really cared about.
