In Catfish: The TV Show season 7 episode 24, titled "Shakinah & Chris," viewers are introduced to a woman named Shakinah who is hoping to finally meet the man she has been talking to online for the past year, Chris. Despite their long-distance relationship, Shakinah and Chris have grown close and have even talked about the possibility of getting married.
However, as the show's hosts Nev and Max begin their investigation into Chris's true identity, they quickly realize that things may not be as they seem. After a few simple Google searches turn up no substantial information on Chris, the hosts begin to suspect that he may be using a fake name and photos to deceive Shakinah.
As they delve deeper into the mystery, Nev and Max discover that Chris has a history of catfishing women and has even been convicted of theft and fraud in the past. Despite this, Shakinah still believes that Chris is the man of her dreams and is devastated when Nev and Max reveal the truth about his true identity.
Throughout the episode, viewers watch as Shakinah struggles to come to terms with the fact that the man she thought she knew and loved was not who he said he was. Meanwhile, Chris attempts to defend himself and explain his reasons for catfishing Shakinah, but his excuses fall on deaf ears.
In the end, Shakinah is faced with a difficult choice: move on from Chris and start fresh, or try to work things out with the man she thought she knew. The episode serves as a cautionary tale for anyone thinking of entering into a long-distance relationship with someone they've met online and highlights the importance of being cautious and doing your research before investing too much time and emotion in someone you've never met in person.
