'Love Is Blind' Shake Chatterjee Debuts New Girlfriend After 'Not Settling'

“Love Is Blind” star Abishek “Shake” Chaterjee is following in his ex-fiancée’s footsteps and finding love outside of the pods.

Shake was the season two villain of “Love Is Blind,” and even after filming ended, he continued to play the role.

The 33-year-old veterinarian and DJ has made multiple social media jabs at ‘LIB’ co-host, Nick Lachey.

During the reunion special, he even made at pass at Nick’s wife, Vanessa Lachey.

He told her that out of all the women in the room, she was the only person he found attractive.

His comments definitely stirred the pot and made it reunion worth watching.

Now that his 15-minutes of ‘LIB’ fame is over and his life has gotten back to some sort of normalcy, Shake is back in the dating game.

On Thursday, March 17, he took to Instagram to show off his new flame.

He shared a carousel of photos with a cute blonde who goes by the Instagram handle, @emw13.

He captioned the photos and video, “Good things come to those who wait don’t settle ❤️.”

Shake’s new lady friend’s name is Emily and it looks like she is based in Miami, which is interesting given the former reality show star is based in Chicago.

Shake introduced Emily to his 169k followers over the weekend. He apparently got auctioned off for nearly $900.

This appears to be his first “relationship” since “Love is Blind” ended.

It’s unknown if Shake and Emily are super serious or just having a good time.

Shake’s PDA post with her comes one week after he publicly apologized to his ex, Deepti Vempati.

On Tuesday, March 8, the vet took to his Instagram to. Issue a video message to Deepti, aka “Deeps.”

He started off, “I wanted to take this opportunity to just say ‘sorry’ to a woman that I know I hurt. And I, Deepti, I am truly sorry for some of the things I said. Things that honestly could’ve been left unsaid.”

Mind you, the video was filmed in a public space, possibly a coffee shop or restaurant with a lot of background noise, but I digress.

“And during the time that we were filming, you were my best friend. 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 continued. “And I’m so, so sorry that I hurt you with my words. That’s the last thing I wanted from all of this. I’m sorry, Deepti.”

He captioned the post, “I’m sorry, @lifewithdeeps . I’m ready to take accountability for my actions and be better. While I’ve reached out privately, I think it’s also important I apologize publicly for the sake of your family and friends that I’ve upset as well.”

While the thought behind the apology is nice and all, the fact he made the video in a public setting was off putting to his fans.

“Bro you had to do this at Dunkin?,” one person commented.

Another echoed the public establishment sentiment writing, “Are you in a restaurant? Mystified why you do this in a public place, truly.”

“Its only because everyone is coming for you…,” a critic wrote.

Someone took the opportunity to make this jab, “I bet your mom made you apologize,” and “Deepti and Kyle are drinking margaritas together right now.... too little, too late.”

Another person called Shake out for doing “damage control at its best.”
