Priyank Sharma and Benafsha Soonawalla‘s equation inside the Bigg Boss house had raised many eyebrows. According to some, they were often ‘too close for comfort’ with each other. The former had previously found love in his co-contestant Divya Agarwal during his stint on Splitsvilla X and he continued to date her even after the show.

Naturally, his chemistry with Ben has left his girlfriend fuming. On the other hand, Benafsha’s bond with her boyfriend Varun Sood has only gotten stronger. After her recent  elimination, the VJ even took to Instagram to assert that all’s well between them. However, she was rather heartbroken with all the hatred coming her way because of her ‘closeness’ to Priyank. After being silent about it for a while, she finally decided to speak up and pour her heart out.

Here’s what she posted:

Well, hater’s gonna hate. But as long you know you were never in the wrong, nothing should affect you – especially with a supportive partner like Varun by your side.  Stay strong, Ben!
