Abhishek “Shake” Chatterjee continues his quest to be the most hated Love Is Blind contestant in the show’s two season history. A we all know, Shake went into the situation seemingly not understanding the premise. Love Is Blind is a dating show that experiments with exactly that – the idea that you don’t need physical appearance to fall in love. But Shake didn’t get the memo. He routinely tried to get the weight and stature of a few contestants in the pod. After plenty of misses, he finally connected with Deepti Vempati. She overlooked his initial red flags and the two got engaged in the pods.
Once they got to Mexico, where the newly engaged couples are supposed to get to know each other, things quickly changed. The two were not intimate and Shake seemed detached and uninterested. When they got home, things didn’t get much better. Shake regularly complained to the other contestants behind Deepti’s back. Ultimately, Deepti found out, and dumped him at the altar. Like she should have. It was a welcomed moment of justice on reality tv, where the villain often wins.
After the show’s finale, Shake was read for filth all over social media. And with good reason! So I think we were all wondering how he might defend himself at the reunion special. The answer? He didn’t really – he just made himself look WORSE. As if that was possible. But instead of complaining about Deepti, Shake took aim at someone more unexpected – host Nick Lachey. As reported by E! News, Shake took to social media to complain about Nick’s hosting skills.

In a since deleted Instagram post, Shake slammed Nick for his comment that since Shake is a veterinarian, he can see why he treats animals and not humans. A good burn, but pretty tame if you ask me. But Shake’s fragile ego couldn’t handle it and he griped, “You’re a massive twat for your comment dragging vets. You do realize that becoming a veterinarian [is] considerably more difficult than becoming a human doc right?”
Shake also whine that Nick was not an “impartial host.” He added, “Sorry I didn’t play along with your narrative like the rest of these puppets… You put a doctor on the show… of course you’re going to see some critical thinking.” I would love for him to elaborate on when he displayed critical thinking.

While the jilted vet tried to claim he got a bad edit, Love Is Blind’s creator, Chris Coelen says not so fast. Chris told Variety, “If we were afraid of that comment, we could have taken it out.” He noted, “But I’m not afraid of that comment, because during this process, we want to give people the opportunity to say whatever they want to say.” And despite Nick and his co-host/wife Vanessa Lachey’s highly opinionated approach to hosting, Chris defended them. He explained, “We don’t tell them what to say or not to say. It’s their thing.”
As for Shake, Chris admitted that no one told him what to say either. Which was obvious. Said Chris, “Shake was jumping in from the word ‘go.’ Nobody tells him to do that. That’s what he decided to do, he wants to get his point of view across and I guess, good for him.”
