Inside 'The Challenge' star Fessy Shafaat's secret letter to Gabby Allen: 'It's more than an attraction'
The 'introverted and shy' Fessy Shafaat pulled quite a bold move when he expressed his feelings for two of his fellow competitors on 'The Challenge: Double Agents' - Tori Deal and Gabby Allen. He told Cory Wharton that he felt torn between the ladies and didn't know, which path to take. While Cory was sure it was Tori that Fessy was meant to be with, the latter had other plans.
After Tori was eliminated, Fessy promptly shifted his focus to Gabby. It started with flirty conversations but soon progressed to hugs and eventually kisses. They were attracted and it was evident that both wanted more out of their innocent interactions. But before they could get to that, Gabby was eliminated and as she was leaving the Iceland headquarters, Fessy wrote her a letter to express how he truly felt about them and the future of their friendship.

Once episode 13 concluded, Devyn Simone sat Fessy and a few others down to understand what happened that week. While most teased him for writing a goodbye note to Gabby, he repeatedly denied the claims until Aneesa Ferreira verified his handwriting in the letter and that confirmed it.
"Gabby, I’ll see you when I’m done winning the final. I think it’s more than an attraction. We should give it a chance. Bye for now, beautiful," the two-time competitor wrote, which brings us to the next question: Did Fessy and Gabby date after filming ended? It may burst a few bubbles because the answer is no.

While the 'Love Island' star was enjoying the sunny beaches of Dubai with boyfriend Brandon Myers, Fessy was in the Middle East too, albeit by himself. Since breaking up with Haleigh Broucher, the 'Big Brother' alum has stayed single. Except, this one time when he was linked to Tori after fans did some digging and found vacation photos of the two. However, the rumors faded away when Tori cleared the air on MTV's Official Challenge Podcast.
"Fessy and I definitely linked up for a second to see what was good,” Tori verified and added: "but the truth is that Fessy and I found out we are definitely better as friends. … We’re just homies, and that’s it, so I’m just going to say that right now.”
