It’s safe to say Deepti Vempati doesn’t regret walking away from Abhishek “Shake” Chatterjee on their wedding day.“There’s a lot of things that he said that he didn’t say to my face and [things] I’ve heard from other cast members,” Deepti exclusively told Us Weekly ahead of the Friday, February 25, finale of Love Is Blind. “I just don’t have room for anybody in my life that doesn’t see me in the best way.

And who could even think those types of thoughts, I guess.”Throughout season 2, fans saw Shake struggle with not having a physical connection to Deepti.

In several scenes, he referred to his fiancée as his “aunt.” While viewers didn’t see the couple discuss their issues with each other, Deepti told Us that they were “pretty transparent throughout our whole process” about how they were “not perfect in any way.”When it came time for their nuptials, she told Us that she was “full of mixed emotions.” In the end, she turned him down at the altar.“I knew what I had to do,” she continued. “No one should have doubts about me [on our wedding day] and I deserve the best.

So it’s, like, if you’re not gonna be able to offer it for me, then there’s no chance I’m staying.”Deepti and Shake weren’t the only pair who opted not to get married.
