Love Is Blind UK Katisha's shock note and what it said as star storms off show
*Warning: Contains spoilers for Love Is Blind UK Season 2*
A Love Is Blind UK contestant has dramatically quit the programme after leaving a shocking message for her fiancé in a surprising turn of events.
Love Is Blind UK season 2 witnessed the latest batch of episodes drop today (August 20) as the five fresh couples work through their new relationships together. Following extensive dating in the pods, the selected pairs chose to advance their romance to the next level and get engaged whilst planning their nuptials.
However, pressure mounts for the couples as they encounter obstacles in their partnerships, reports the Mirror. This week, one participant has dramatically left the programme, leaving a single message for their other half.
Devastating moments showed Scottish native Katisha and Javen battling with their communication, which followed Katisha's last minute choice to pick Javen, despite confessing a deeper bond with Demola in the pods. Yet Katisha broke down in tears on the programme following Javen's surprising choice this week.
Previous moments featured a get-together with the couples and fellow cast members, before Javen seemed to be getting friendlier with singletons Sophie, Yolanda and Aanu. Javen chose to head back out with the group and left Katisha on her own at their accommodation.
Subsequent scenes showed Megan confessing to Katisha that Javen had actually spent the majority of the night with the other three women, which left Katisha far from pleased. Megan revealed to Katisha: "I'm not going to lie, he went straight to Sophie.
"He was chatting to Sophie a lot and then I watched them get into a photo booth..... I didn't see any photo."
She continued: "It was the weirdest thing, he just kept laughing. He was just being like yeah, nothing, nothing. After that he moved on started talking to Yolanda, eventually started talking to Aanu."
However, when Katisha confronted Javen, a row quickly erupted as she declared she was "going home."
Left disappointed by his behaviour, Katisha was later overheard saying: "I have no desire to speak to Javen again, I've been in relationships like this before and I've trusted them and I've taken them back again and again and again. I didn't come here to make the same mistakes."
Before departing the programme, Katisha penned a farewell note to Javen, placing it beside her engagement ring on the table for him to discover upon his return. The note read: "I truly wanted this to work, we are obviously more than our mistakes but I can't marry potential. I'm sorry, all the best Katisha."
Upon discovering the message, Javen confronted Megan, demanding to know what had been said to Katisha before branding it "lies" as a heated row erupted.
What lies ahead for Love Is Blind UK? Viewers must wait until August 27 when the concluding two episodes air.

Love Is Blind UK: Where Are Bardha And Jed Now?
Season two of Love Is Blind UK is heating up, with five couples getting engaged and jetting off to Cyprus for their week-long post-pod retreats. Amongst those headed up the aisle are Ashleigh Berry and Billy Jervis Jr, Kieran Holmes-Darby and Megan Jupp, Kal Pasha and Sarover Aujla, Katisha Atkinson and Javen Palmer, and Bardha Krasniqi and Jed Chouman. From the start, Bardha, 32, and Jed, 31, seemed to be a strong match and they were engaged by the second episode. Will they make it up the aisle to become husband and wife or will they go their separate ways? Ahead of the show's finale on 27 August, we look back at their story… Bardha and Jed on Love Is Blind ©Netflix As the latest episodes aired, Bardha and Jed are still together as of the end of episode eight. But there are hints that there's trouble in paradise for the couple, with the trailer for the next batch of episodes showing Bardha voicing her doubts about their upcoming wedding and Jed admitting that they may not be as compatible as they'd thought they were. 'We did actually have an argument yesterday. Right now it does feel really uncomfortable,' she said to the other girls during their hen do. Jed also revealed, 'We were on two different pages. If I feel like I'm not heard, it will be a problem.' On her wedding day, Bardha is seen contemplating, 'Why do I need to rush into something if I don't know him enough?' The biggest hint that Bardha and Jed don't become husband and wife is in the final scene of the trailer, which shows a crying Bardha being consoled by her girlfriend. From their first pod date, Bardha and Jed had an easy connection. They bonded over the importance of honouring their respective heritages – he's Lebanese and she's Albanian – and wanting two children. They got on so well that Bardha joked about being 'done' with dating because she just met her husband. She opened up to him about how her family fled to the UK when she was five, because of the war in Kosovo. Love Is Blind UK couple Bardha and Jed in Cyprus ©Netflix The following dates saw their bond deepening and as they spoke about baby names and planned Sunday roast dinners with family, they realised they were falling in love. 'My heart, my head, and my gut are all saying the same thing,' Jed told her in their final pod date before he proposed. During their first meet irl, Jed told Bardha he's excited to show her family that he will take care of her. As they exchanged 'I love you', she said, 'It was the best moment of my life so far.' Their love-in continues when they go to Cyprus and they enjoy their first face-to-face date night. He got emotional when they discussed their future children, leaving her feeling confident that her match would be well looked upon by her family. Jed Chouhan on Love Is Blind ©Netflix However, in episode five, viewers see Bardha and Jed's dominant personalities could lead to a stumbling block, with both used to being the 'driver' in their relationships. As they went for an off-road drive, Jed let her drive. 'Get used to it. That's how the rest of our relationship is going to go,' she replied. She later said, 'I think Jed is not ready to let go of being the man of the household, but I'm very independent. I like to get things done my way. So, yeah, there's going to have to be room for two.' When they had drinks afterwards, they spoke about gender roles, with Bardha saying she takes the lead '100 percent', which didn't go down well with Jed. 'It's just how I am as a person. It's easy for me to just make decisions quickly, take the lead, and just move on. I don't really like to leave things lingering,' she told him. His response? That they would both have to get 'used to' that with each other because they're both 'very strong' and independent people. Looks like we'll have to wait and see what happens between them.
