As for why he declined, Shake shared that once he noticed who hosted the show — Nick Lachey — he immediately declined. For those unaware, Lachey and Shake went toe to toe at the Season 2 reunion, after Lachey called out Shake for his toxic obsession with physical attraction, which he claims is why he mistreated his mate, Deepti.
He eventually issued an official apology to Deepti, however, fans questioned whether it was insincere after he shortly announced his new series, Love Is Blurry.
