Shane broke up with her fiancé Seymore Butts in 1995 and started her own production company, Shane's World. In the spring of 1998, Shane's line of videos became condom-only. In 1999, after the release of "Shane’s World, Vol. 18: The Roller Coaster of Love", she retired from the adult industry to start a family with her husband. After her retirement, Shane was involved in a trademark dispute with two former employees: her personal assistant and cameraman, who go by the industry pseudonyms of Jennie and Brian Grant. This resulted in a licensing deal for the Shane's World name and the production company continued under the ownership of the Grants.
