However, she has been talking about her husband Ritesh since 2019 and has made claims that he is a wealthy businessman and settled in the UK. 

Several contestants and a section of the audience have raised their doubts over Ritesh's existence. In one of the episodes when a press conference was held inside the BB14 house, a journalist grilled Rakhi if she had been using her marriage to fool people and to remain in limelight, it was then the actress revealed that she had not met him for a year and a half. 

On the contrary, comedienne Bharti Singh had earlier quashed rumours of Rakhi faking her marriage and said: 'Ritesh exists and she has seen him on a video call.' The comedian is the first person other than Rakhi and her family who has confirmed that the popular actress is married and her husband doesn't want to reveal himself to the world.
