Patel has confirmed that she and Mehta are still together, but refused to tell LA Times more about it as they will be featured in Season 3 of Indian Matchmaking.

The couple, who started seeing each other after Sima aunty brought them together in season one, broke up even before the show had aired. Yes, Nadia didn’t really think Jayaraman was the one for her early on.

But, unfortunately, Nadia got dumped within weeks of them starting to date. “Maybe I should have listened to Sima aunty upfront," she told LA Times.
