Jasmine and Demi’s Friendship Ends in the UK

Jasmine Chamberlain and Demi Brown’s friendship appears to be over.

On the “Your Aunties Could Never” podcast, Jasmine revealed that the Love is Blind: UK stars are “no longer close.”

“Me and Demi not being so-called ‘friends’ anymore has been very recent. This happened, for me anyway, straight after [the] reunion,” the 30-year-old shared.

The fallout centers around Brown and ex-fiancé Ollie Sutherland’s tangled relationship with fellow pod squad member, Sharlotte Ritchie. After Brown turned Sutherland down at the altar, he soon confessed that he and Ritchie had been romantically involved recently.

“I remember end of last winter, Ollie and Sharlotte were already talking, and Demi was speaking to me. Demi [said] she had a recent friend in her personal life who betrayed her for not telling her that she was dating Demi’s ex. Bearing in mind I was close with Sharlotte and Demi, your girl was put in the middle,” Chamberlain recalled.

The reality TV star, who is married to Bobby Johnson, explained that “out of respect for Demi,” she asked Ritchie if she could inform Demi so she wouldn’t be “blindsided” by the news.

“I did end up telling that to Demi… and [she] said, ‘It’s fine, I appreciate you telling me that,’ and she was good. She went to Tanzania just before the reunion and she came back [the day before] the reunion, … texting, ‘Love you, miss you, you’re coming across so well,'” she continued.

However, Chamberlain claimed that Brown told her she was ready to “speak [her] truth” during the reunion, though the subject never came up.

“When that didn’t happen [it] threw me off-guard. [Demi] tried to speak to me two days after the reunion and I said, ‘Listen, I’m not ready to talk now. I’m kind of busy with work, got a lot going on [and] I’m still trying to process my feelings, as well,’ something along those lines,” Chamberlain explained.

Brown agreed to back off and give her space.

“I still felt just that, like, disappointment. I just didn’t feel right, so I kind of kept my distance, but I did speak to Maria [Benkh] and she ended up telling Demi about what I said and that’s when Demi left the group chats … and then proceeded to take me off her Instagram and unfollowed me,” she detailed.

Despite their issues, Chamberlain still “loves” her former bestie and sent her a message after the finale aired.

“I said, ‘Hope you’re good. I love you,’ and she said something along the lines of, ‘All the best.’ Like, basically [that] she wasn’t interested in having a friendship with me anymore. … I had realized that she was over it.”
