Rakhi Sawant feels Ritesh stayed in Bigg Boss 15 only to not pay ₹2 crore penalty

Rakhi Sawant recently announced her separation from husband Ritesh Singh. Rakhi also revealed that she needs to focus on her life now and Ritesh was the one to end things with her. Rakhi Sawant had introduced her husband Ritesh to the world on Bigg Boss 15 after much secrecy over the years. But the diva feels that Ritesh put up with her in the show only so he does not have to pay a penalty of ₹2 crores to the Bigg Boss 15 makers.

Rakhi and Ritesh tied the knot in 2019, but she did not reveal his identity for years later. However, on Bigg Boss 15, Rakhi decided to open but she feels it was all a lie.

In an interview with ETimes, Rakhi said, “Hmmm… yes. I felt he was staying in my house only to be at the Grand Finale. Bigg Boss ke contract mein hain (It is in the Bigg Boss contract) that you have to pay ₹2 crore if you don’t attend the Grand Finale. Besides, he was not touching me or kissing me in front of the media. Only I was kissing him. He is a shy person, lekin un baton se zaroor jyaada lagne laga tha (but these things gave me an inkling).”

Rakhi also said that she is feeling very depressed after her separation from Ritesh, “He was with me on Friday, throughout. We woke up on Sunday very normally. Suddenly, he started packing his bags and said that he wants to separate from me as his legal issues (with his wife) have become too much. God knows who he’s spoken to during those morning hours that led him to take this step.”
