Love on the Spectrum star James finally reveals how he met Shelley in the first place
He confirmed she's definitely 'the one'
James has finally opened up about how he and his new girlfriend, Shelley, actually met, after viewers were introduced to her through Love on the Spectrum.
Usually, the Love on the Spectrum cast members meet their new partners by being set up on a blind date by the producers; however, when we met Shelley for the first time during James’ birthday party, she and James had already become official.
James revealed how he and Shelley actually met in an interview with People, alongside confessing that she’s definitely “the one” for him, as well as their plans for the future.
James explained: “I have finally found who I think is the one. She’s so wonderful, so amazing.
“I can’t say enough just how great she is, and I’m absolutely certain that this time around it’s true love, that I found the one. As the old saying goes third time’s the charm.”
James admitted that whilst he thinks Shelley is very “physically attractive”, there’s also “so much more” to her than what first meets the eye.
He added: “She has such a wonderful personality. She and I have so much in common. We complement each other. She and I inspire each other to be better. I believe that we bring out the best in each other.”
James confessed that he and Shelley met online, with her actually making the first move in their relationship.
He recalled: “She reached out to me online because she actually had seen me. She’d watched the show before, so I’m very glad that she did it. She reached out to me and we’d been communicating.”
James emotionally confessed that prior to meeting Shelley, the Love on the Spectrum star began to feel completely “discouraged” about finding love.
He admitted: “Sometimes the women would just abruptly stop responding without any explanation.
“Other times it turned out that there just wasn’t enough there for a good match or et cetera. I definitely was feeling very discouraged, but I didn’t give up. I just had to keep at it.
“That’s it what took, repetition, effort. I finally found Shelley. I’m so glad that she and I found each other.”
As for what the future holds for Shelley and James, the pair have been discussing moving in together.
James added: “Unfortunately, I still live with my parents because of how expensive houses are at this moment. So I shall need to keep at it. But Shelley also still lives with her parents. So both of us very much wish to find our own places.”
