Love is Blind contestant Abhishek ‘Shake’ Chatterjee made some controversial comments about his now ex-fiance Deepti Vempati. He has finally issued a public apology, after being called out by thousands of viewers.

Chatterjee posted a video to his Instagram issuing an apology to Vempati after his harsh remarks about her.

In the video he said:

“I wanted to take this opportunity to really just say sorry to a woman that I know I hurt.. Deepti, I am truly sorry for some of the things I said.”

He added:

“Things that, honestly, just could've been left unsaid or could have been said differently. Things that never should have been on national television.”

His comments throughout the season deemed him to be the villain of the show. He now claims he knew their marriage wouldn't happen but that they were best friends throughout the show.

He said:

“Even though I knew our relationship wasn’t going to end in marriage, I didn’t want what we had to end either, I loved every second of it.”

He ended the video with:

“I’m so, so sorry that I hurt you with my words. That’s the last thing that I wanted from all of this. I’m sorry, Deepti.”

Vempati has not publicly responded to his video.
