Shanna Moakler Reveals Whom She Wished She Married

Shanna Moakler has given fans something new to talk about!

Following the end of her marriage to rocker Travis Barker and his remarriage to reality star and businesswoman Kourtney Kardashian, the beauty queen has divulged who she wished she had walked down the aisle with. The update came through a social media post almost a year after she sold her engagement ring from Barker for a whopping $96,000.

Shanna Moakler Disclosed The Man She Truly Wants In A Cryptic Post

The drama in Moakler’s life is unending as she has thrown another ring into the spotlight, sharing with her 397k followers the man she wished she had exchanged vows with instead of Barker.

The model got things going with an image of her and a man wearing a sleeveless athletic jersey and dark sunglasses on her Instagram Story. She appeared familiar with the man, leaning on him, as they both stared at something off-camera.

“This was my best friend in life, Mason; I wish I married him,” she typed above the seemingly innocent pose, cryptically adding this instruction, “Call or text 988,” the helpline for suicidal people.

While it is unclear if she was asking fans to call the helpline for her or Mason, it is worth noting that a rundown of her previous relationships via US Magazine did not include the latter’s name. As it turned out, her first romantic linking occurred in 1997 when she was reportedly involved with singer-songwriter Billy Idol.

The relationship quickly fizzled out, and she began dating American promoter Oscar De La Hoya the same year. By the following year, the couple was engaged, welcoming their only child together — daughter Atiana —  in March 1999.

However, they split up in 2000, and by 2001, the “Jake in Progress” actress had moved on with actor Dennis Quaid. She and the “Breaking Away” star lived together for eight months before she met Barker, whom she married in October 2004.

They subsequently welcomed two kids — a son, Landon, in October 2003 and a daughter, Alabama, in December 2005. The Blink-182 drummer and his then-wife endured a couple of years as on-again-off-again lovebirds and eventually divorced in 2008.

Unfortunately, that was not the end of their relationship, as they went through a messy custody battle years later, and in 2018, a court sealed off the results of the child custody order.

Since then, they have focused on co-parenting their kids, with Barker moving on with Kardashian. Moakler is also said to have found love again with Matthew Rondeau, whom she began dating in 2020. Speaking on the romance, one source disclosed:

“It’s certainly a relationship that can lead to an engagement in the near future. They have great chemistry and enjoy doing a lot of the same things like laying by the pool or working out together.”

In May 2022, The Blast observed that Moakler had put her engagement ring from Barker up for auction after the drummer married his current wife in a luxury three-day celebration in Portofino, Italy. Explaining her decision, the mom-of-three expressed:

“I think it is a beautiful piece and truly was my dream ring. However, that chapter of my life is over.”

The “Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman” star added that even though she loved the jewelry, which had brought her immense joy before, the situation had changed. She now wanted something different and was not shy to admit:

“I hope it will find a new home and continue to bring someone as much happiness as it once did to me. It’s truly an iconic ring.”

The bid for the four-carat, round-cut solitaire sparkler started at $51,000, although Moakler revealed that she wanted it to sell for around $120,000. Ultimately, it was copped for $96,500 after 17 bids through the jewelry re-sale website Worthy.com. As for the timing of the sale, the reality star claimed: 

“I’m sure people would assume that [it’s related to the wedding], but I simply wanted to find a proper seller, and Worthy.com is the most professional and I know will give this piece the attention it deserves.”
