Love isn’t always a walk in the park, but John Slater’s story makes Cupid’s arrow look less like a cute legend... and more like a gore-filled horror movie. The star of the romantic reality show Love After Lockup has struggled to meet the right person, as TV viewers can certainly attest. On the program, Slater was featured dating a blonde named Lacey, who ended up cheating on him while he was in jail. The worst part of the whole debacle was that Lacey’s new lover was actually another inmate. The girl clearly has a type, but for Slater, that was tough luck!

Now, fans of the show are wondering what Slater has been up to post-filming. Has he been able to move on from the whole cheating scandal. And does he have a new lady friend in his life? Read on to find out where John Slater is now:

Back In The Slammer

Soon after the show started airing, the media personality landed himself right back to where he started: behind bars. Slater’s Instagram account reveals the dirty details of his lockup, explaining even the location of his imprisonment. He divulged that he was in the VB jail, published his identity number and then went so far as to ask his followers to send him gifts. But did the dinero ever come through?

We don’t know how many fans sent cash to Slater’s commissary, but if internet chat rooms are anything to go by, he might not have received very much. One subgroup of Love After Lockup fans on Reddit totally tears both Slater and Lacey apart in their discussion. Viewers seemed to find the pair’s public breakup especially controversial, due to the way they attacked each other on social media.

Another Second Chance On Life

Luckily for Slater, these fans’ opinions don’t matter too much, since he is once again out of jail and ready to enjoy life on the outside. His Instagram account shows him out and about: paddle boarding, swimming and even driving around in a golf cart with some adorable kids. Actually so sweet!

His most recent post shows that he even made a pretty major purchase of late. The reality star photographed himself in front of an enormous gray pickup truck. What was the make and model that inspired Slater to buy such an expansive gift for himself? The television personality found himself drawn to the Toyota Tundra, and he even went ahead to buy it, thanks to a hard summer’s work. But where will he go in his new ride?

The media star seems to enjoy outdoor activities all around the Virginia Beach area. Other than soaking up some rays on the shore, Slater can be spotted on local hiking trails. When it comes to love, however, not much has seemed to change for the TV star. The good news is that his passenger seat is officially open for a new special someone.
