Zanab Jaffery's mother died from a brain tumor when she was just 18 years old. Her father died when she was just 13 during a water skiing accident. Jaffery revealed this when sharing her sad past on the show Love is Blind.

31-year-old Zanab Jaffery is known for being a contestant on the show Love is Blind. Jaffery was a part of the third season of the series. She gained a fan following for her relationship with fellow contestant Cole Barnett on the show. The two started pretty strong but after their engagement on the show, Jaffery and Barnett's relationship came tumbling down and ended with Jaffery insulting Barnett at the altar and leaving their wedding.

Love is Blind is a dating reality television series produced by Kinetic Content and created by Chris Coelen. The series has three seasons with a total of 40 episodes. Each episode is 48 to 84 minutes long. The show follows fifteen men and fifteen women, all from the same metropolitan area, hoping to find love. For the first 10 days, these contestants are made to interact with each other through pods. Once they find their potential match, the contestants then can extend a marriage proposal and if agreed, then they can physically meet each other. The engaged couple is then sent to a couple of retreats where they get to know each other. As time passes by, the couple moves into an apartment in their city and meets each other's family members and plans out a wedding that must take place by the end of week four.

No. Zanab Jaffery and Cole Barnett have split after a very nasty and heated fight. Jaffery and Barnett were couples-goals all along the season. However, gradually they began having heated arguments which ended up with them separating. While at the altar, the two had the most brutal breakup with Zanab deciding to tell Cole what she thought about him in front of everyone. Her thoughts about him left everyone shell-shocked.

While on the altar, Zanab Jaffery told Cole Barnett, “You have disrespected me, you have insulted me, you have critiqued me, and for what it’s worth, you have single-handedly shattered my self-confidence." She continued, “I hate that you have had that kind of effect on me, and the messed up thing is I know I love you.” After this, Zanab Jaffery told no to being Barnett's wife and she left the altar. People present there lauded and clapped for Jaffery's courageous outburst, leaving Cole Barnett heartbroken and sobbing.

When asked about the moment, Cole Barnett told WH, “I was crying my eyes out because I care for this girl and love her to death and wanted a life with her, wanted a relationship with her, wanted to marry her, and here are all of her people cheering not [about] that she didn't just get married, but that she buried me." He added, “That was very blindsiding and difficult to experience."
