Rochelle Rao Says Many Thought Keith And Her Relationship Was A Publicity Stunt; Reveals Their Love Story
Former beauty queen Rochelle Rao and Keith Sequeira dated for years before they tied the knot in 2018. The duo had participated in Bigg Boss 9. Recently, in Humans Of Bombay's post, The Kapil Sharma Show's actress opened up about their relationship. She revealed their 'cute' love story, but many of them thought it was a publicity stunt.
Rochelle
began
the
post
by
revealing
how
she
was
tired
of
pointless
relationships
while
she
was
living
her
showbiz
dream
in
Mumbai.
When
she
had
almost
given
up
on
love,
Keith
joined
her
church
group.
Since
both
were
from
same
industry,
she
said
that
things
clicked
between
them
and
they
used
to
hang
out
every
weekend.
She
revealed
that
initially
she
tried
to
set
him
up
with
girls,
but
later
realised
that
she
fell
for
him.
On how they began dating, she said, "At 25, while I was living my showbiz dream in Mumbai, my personal life plummeted. Tired of pointless relationships, I'd almost given up on love, when Keith joined my church group. Coming from the same industry, it didn't take long for us to become friends; we'd hang out every weekend-I'd think of girls I could set him up with! But soon, I realized that Keith was what I was looking for-sweet, intelligent & serious about love. I fell for him, but he was oblivious-until his birthday, when I went all out with gifts, & he finally got the hint. Days later, while walking me home, he kissed me. That's how we began dating!"
She revealed that their first two months of their relationship was a secret until the press spotted them. Later, they were offered Bigg Boss. She added, "The first 2 months of our relationship were hush-hush, until the press spotted us together. Soon after, we got offered Bigg Boss. I told him, 'I don't mind, as long as I have you.' Many thought our relationship was a publicity stunt, but we couldn't care less!"
Rochelle then revealed how Keith was out of the Bigg Boss house as he lost his brother and was back on the show. When asked why he returned, she mentioned that he told her, "I'd rather mourn with you.' It was then she thought, "If we get through this, we can get through anything." She added that by the end of that show, she knew that he was the one for her.
The actress further mentioned a funny incident, when she and her friends thought that Keith would propose her with a gift on her birthday but he gifted her boots!
She revealed Keith hadn't proposed her even after a year and mentioned how she made him propose her when he planned their 'special trip'.
Rochelle said, "Months later, Keith hinted at a 'special' trip. By then, I was done. I burst out, 'If you're going to propose, just do it!' I ranted so much that in the heat of the moment, he said, 'Fine, if this is the way you want it!' Then, he got down on one knee, pulled out a ring & asked, 'Will you marry me?' It was crazy, but it was SO us! We celebrated with champagne." They then got married in 2018 and it has been four years now.
