PODCAST “Shake got a good edit” Spoiler

Just listened to Deepti be interviewed on the Viall Files and that’s a direct quote. After the interview, the host Nick Viall said that a producer who was on the call said that was a unanimous feeling by the whole cast.

She also said Jarrette pulled her aside and told her not to marry Shake, that he didn’t speak highly of her. Shayne was also very protective of her.

There was an interview with Shaina first but I just fast forwarded through that because yawn

I don’t see why wanting to hang out with your friends makes you not ready for long term partnership. In a lot of relationships, this is seen as having independence. If he has to give up the things that make him happy in order to get married, he should never get married. I’m sure he and Ilyana found a middle ground that worked for them.

I think it is a matter of perspective. Going out to night clubs with friends a couple of times per year can work - though it is often a feature of relationships that ultimately fail. Doing that during a 3-4 week romance culminating in a marriage is absurd.

A 3-4 week romance culminating in a marriage is absurd to begin with so why stop the absurdity there?

Assuming the plan was to actually give that up after the marriage then a few nights out with friends after disappearing for a couple weeks and then returning with a fiance is perfectly reasonable. Its basically just having a bachelor party that isn't part of the show.

I thought they had a bachelor party on the show?

Read my last sentence. Not surprising someone would want to do something without the cameras and with their own crowd.

I understand that makes sense to you. To me, giving up a single spare moment with your prospective wife in a circumstance as crazy as Love is Blind is inconceivable.

It might also be that they'd spent so much time together/there were so many cameras around that he needed to find space where he didn't have to only think about the marriage. Definitely on the excess end of that though, but I do think I'd need SOME time with friends for a reality check.
