In 2011, Shannon appeared in the Visit California promotional film aimed at boosting tourism from the UK.
Her younger brother, Scotty Bahrke, also competed with the US Freestyle Team as an aerialist. He joined the US Olympic Team for the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver on short notice, replacing teammate Dylan Ferguson who was recovering from an emergency appendectomy shortly before the Games began.
Bahrke is married to longtime boyfriend, Matt Happe, with whom she co-founded Silver Bean Coffee Company in 2013. She announced that following the 2010 Olympics, she would retire from competition, wed Happe on October 10, 2010 (10/10/10), and concentrate on their business.

She came back from injury once again, and in March 2009 won the dual moguls title at the US National Freestyle Championships, her sixth US title. Bahrke dedicated the win to her longtime coach Clay Beck, who died in a 2008 plane accident. After a third-place finish at the December 2009 Olympic trials, her status for the 2010 Winter Olympics would be determined at the end of January 2010 following the World Cup events. She was one of four women selected to the US Moguls Team for the Vancouver Games, along with Hannah Kearney, Heather McPhie, and Michelle Roark. Bahrke was the only past Olympic medalist on the 18-strong US Freestyle Team.
While recovering from her 2007 knee injury, Bahrke and her fiancé Matt Happe founded a coffee roasting company in Salt Lake City called Silver Bean Coffee. SIn addition to ski-themed coffee blends the company also sells coffees to support US ski team members and their charities. Over 20 US skiers including 2006 Olympic giant slalom gold medalist Julia Mancuso and 2009 Nordic combined world champion Bill Demong have their own coffees, and a portion of the proceeds goes to the athlete and their charity of choice. Silver Bean also sells Best Friend Blends; for every bag of these coffees, five dollars go to Bahrke's charity of choice, the Best Friends Animal Society.
Returning to the slopes in December 2005, she qualified for a spot on the US Team for the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino where she finished in tenth place, the top US result.

At the 2003 Deer Valley World Ski Championships, she won the bronze medal in dual moguls, and finished fourth in moguls, missing the podium by 34 hundredths of a point.
After high school at the age of 18, she moved to Salt Lake City to attend the University of Utah as well as to pursue her dreams of making the U.S. Ski Team. In December 1998, she earned a spot on the U.S. Freestyle Ski Team and had continued success on the team for the next 12 years.
