Here is everything you need to know about My Catfish Nightmare’s Simran Bhogal and her whereabouts.

Who is Sweet Bobby: My Catfish Nightmare’s Simran Bhogal?

In simpler terms, Simran Bhogal, who found herself ensnared in a catfishing ordeal, is actually Kirat Assi’s relative and the one orchestrating the deceptive scheme.

In 2009, JJ, who was once in a relationship with Bhogal, reached out to Kirat Assi via Facebook. After connecting, JJ requested Assi’s help in rekindling things with Bhogal. The two continued communicating until Assi found out about Bhogal’s death due to an allergic reaction. Later on, Bhogal introduced Assi to JJ’s brother Bobby (who was actually Bhogal himself), so she could extend her condolences.

What did Simran Bhogal do?

Bhogal orchestrated a complex catfishing operation using sixty fictitious personas, among them “Bobby,” which she portrayed herself, as well as numerous friends, colleagues, and relatives. She assumed each of the roles herself.

Bobby, affectionately called “Bhogal,” cleverly ensnared an unsuspecting individual named Assi in a devious plan. Over time, their bond deepened into friendship and eventually blossomed into romance after five years. However, whenever Assi attempted to meet Bobby, they were always given excuses.

In time, Assi started growing suspicious about her avoidance and flimsy explanations. She managed to locate Bobby in Brighton after some digging. However, Bobby claimed not to recognize her. Later on, Simran Bhogal finally confessed that she was indeed Bobby, which left Assi feeling both heartbroken and furious.

Where is Simran Bhogal now?

Currently, as of October 2021, Simran Bhogal resides with her parents in the North West region of London and is employed within the financial services sector.

At the outset of the Sweet Bobby podcast, Simran Bhogal was publicly identified as being engaged, frequently on the move, and employed at a leading London-based company.
