Kalani Faagata and Asuelu Pulaa Divorce Announcement May Be Coming Soon …

Kalani Faagata and Asuelu Pulaa have had marriage struggles since before they were married.

A chance encounter led to a pregnancy that quickly turned into a marriage and a second child.

Despite numerous marital difficulties, the two seemed doomed to be stuck in an unhappy marriage forever.

But after Kalani called out Asuelu early this spring, a series of other clues have dropped that the two are heading for divorce.

Kalani Faagata braces herself to speak to her husband

Asuelu has charmed his fans and followers for years by showing off Samoan dances, something that he has done on 90 Day Fiance and on social media.

While often veering dangerously close to exploitative, these performances have earned him lifelong fans.

Kalani’s no-nonsense (well, maybe some-nonsense) attitude has brought in a sizable fan following … and she is currently a brand ambassador for Savage X Fenty.

For a long time, social media has been the last bastian of their marital happiness.

The show, which of course is edited to show the highs and lows of couples as months of footage are edited down to a few hours and a tidy storyline, has shown them on the verge of collapse more than once.

But now, even Instagram is throwing up major signs that Kalani and Asuelu will soon be exes.

But we should first talk about how absolutely miserable the two looked on 90 Day Diaries just a couple of months ago.

Kalani admitted that she felt “at a breaking point” for some unsurprising reasons.

Asuelu was not behaving responsibly or fulfilling his role as her partner or as a father, and that was taking its toll.

Asuelu Pulaa - I'm a bad husband

That Asuelu just … walked out in the middle of the conversation probably didn’t help much.

But we mentioned social media. Shortly after that 90 Day Diaries moment aired, Kalani shared that Asuelu had unfollowed and blocked both her and her fan-favorite sister, Kolini.

Fans were unsure of what to think? Were they still living together? Because that’s probably a bigger deal than Instagram.

Kalani Faagata cries and admits how unhappy she is

But in the months since that blocking, Asuelu has not mentioned Kalani or being married.

Kalani has said that there are “lots of changes” coming in their future.

These are changes that she hopes “will make everyone happier” … which is so vague that it could mean anything from a divorce to redoubled efforts on their marriage.

Kalani Faagata reacts to Angela flashing everyone

A fan recently asked Kalani if she and Asuelu are still together, and she actually answered.

Kalani promised: “I’ll explain at the end of the month.”

That is certainly mysterious, but could mean anything from TLC-related contractual obligations to needing to iron out those changes before announcing them.

Kalani Faagata meets with a divorce attorney, just in case

Well, we are now in the final week of May, so the clock is running out on Kalani’s announcement.

Maybe it’s a new house. Maybe it’s divorce papers. Maybe it’s related to an NDA or the cast announcement of another season.

If we don’t know in a week’s time, then we’ll have even more questions for Kalani.

Kalani Faagata pursued by Tammy Pulaa and MIL

A lot of people have tried to blame marriage problems on family meddling, but Kalani and Asuelu aren’t Chantel and Pedro.

Yes, Asuelu’s mother and his sister have been extremely combative and caused financial and emotional strain on the marriage.

Some of those moments remain burned into our memories.

Tammy Pulaa to Kalani Faagata - I'm gonna beat you up!

But Kalani’s family has, if anything, helped the marriage last longer than it should have — especially since her dad has misguided ideas about marriage and divorce.

The reality is that Kalani and Asuelu may share things, from their sons to a sense of humor, but they are fundamentally different people.

Sometimes, differences work out for the best in a marriage. But when they have radically irreconcilable ideas about what it means to be partners … what hope can there be for their future?

Deavan Clegg and Jihoon Lee Finalize Divorce After Two Years: Free at Last!

On Mother’s Day, 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way alum Deavan Clegg announced that she is pregnant.

She and Topher Park are expecting their rainbow baby together.

Deavan’s announcement was met with some confusion from a few fans of the franchise who had not been keeping up after she left the show.

Deavan and Jihoon Lee broke up more than two years ago. And now, finally, their grueling divorce has come to an end.

Jihoon Lee takes Deavan Clegg to work

On Monday, May 23, Deavan Clegg took to her Instagram Story to share some long overdue news.

“After an almost two year battle,” Deavan announced, “I am officially DIVORCED.”

She gushed: “I couldn’t be happier.”

Deavan Clegg IG divorce finalized announcement 23 May 2022

“This journey was very difficult and draining,” Deavan acknowledged.

“After my ex had fired his lawyer,” she revealed, “he never showed up to court nor took up visits.”

Many of us remember when Jihoon cut ties with his attorney after a dubious GoFundMe was set up, seemingly to hire a lawyer paid for by fans who wished to spite Deavan.

“After almost a year of judge postponing and extending dates for my ex to respond,” Deavan recalled, “we finally made it to court.”

She has now received what many had expected given the criminal investigation into Jihoon combined with online evidence suggesting his disinterest in a custody fight.

Deavan was awarded full sole and full physical custody of 3-year-old Taeyang.

“I can finally speak out about my experience,” Deavan shared.

“And,” she acknowledged, “the hell we went through as a family.”

Deavan assured her fans and followers: “I plan on releasing a video soon.”

To put it bluntly, what was once a love story between Deavan and Jihoon ended in a horror story.

Though Deavan has never been able to speak publicly about any of the details, Jihoon allegedly attacked Deavan’s daughter, Drascilla, in South Korea.

Deavan left with her children, with the exes spinning a simple, palatable, but woefully inadequate story for the cameras to explain her departure.

Jihoon Lee and Deavan Clegg cry together

The reality was that the two entered a custody battle, but not right away.

By all evidence, it appears that Jihoon did not begin to “fight” for Taeyang until a bizarre GoFundMe was set up on his behalf.

Spiteful fans — and perhaps a few who, for their own reasons, sincerely believed that an injustice needed to be righted — donated to hire an attorney to represent Jihoon.

There are lines between feeling a certain way about reality stars and actively changing their lives and their children’s for the worse.

However, Jihoon relatively quickly parted ways with the attorney and the GoFundMe.

We won’t pretend to know exactly what went on, but considering Deavan’s repeated complaints that Jihoon seemed disinterested in keeping up with Taeyang, many fans connected the dots.

Jihoon Lee shows Deavan Clegg the money

Jihoon was always unprepared to be a parent, and his time on 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way did not seem to change that.

Even if he had not been accused of vicious child-abuse — the details of which leaked and horrified many of us — some wondered if he would ever “get it” and be more responsible.

At the same time, some fans speculated that Jihoon may have viewed his renewed childfree life as a mixed blessing. That said, we cannot know his true feelings.

What we can know is that it’s finally over. 

Soon, Deavan will be able to share information directly with fans, though what she chooses to explain is up to her.

She and Drascilla have had time to process and recover from trauma, but that doesn’t mean that talking about any of this will be easy.

Shaeeda Sween Nearly Stranded Beside Highway After "Tapping" Bilal Hazziez on 90 Day Fiance (Recap)

90 Day Fiance Season 9, Episode 6 took some dramatic shifts from earlier episodes of the season.

Following days of Bilal’s weird head-games, Shaeeda found herself in hot water once again.

This time, however, Bilal was right, and this difference almost led to a relationship-breaking moment.

Biniyam wakes up for his first morning in America, but between his work goals and a day trip to New York, he and Ariela aren’t seeing eye-to-eye.

Miona and Jibri’s mom both think that the other is being “fake,” while Jibri feels like his mom is “testing” Miona and taking things too far.

Guillermo and Kara’s sit-down with friends reveals some mutual insecurities about each other and their relationship.

Patrick takes Thais home, and things go well until the next morning starts off with a disaster.

Finally, Yvette finds out the hard way that Mohamed has a surprise list of “rules” that he wants her to follow to make him feel “comfortable.”

1. Bilal Hazziez and Shaeeda Sween

Bilal hazziez and shaeeda sween discuss house rules
It’s funny the little overlaps that show up between couples. These two begin the episode by discussing rules and coffee, two topics covered by other couples. Shaeeda and Bilal continue to misuse the term “OCD,” which is a specific diagnosis, while describing his extremely strict ideas about how his home should look and who should do what, and where, in his house. In other words, it is a revelation to Shaeeda that she’s even permitted to drink coffee outside of the kitchen.

2. Mostly, Shaeeda is just anxious

Shaeeda sween is anxious before going to the masjid for jumah
She is going to the Masjid with Bilal for Jum’ah, something that Bilal very clearly explains to the camera, aimed at a Christian (and culturally Christian) audience who might be unfamiliar. For Shaeeda, what’s new about this is meeting people in Bilal’s community, including his ex-wife.

3. He tells her to not be nervous

Bilal hazziez pranks shaeeda sween with mucus claim
Bilal then gives her one of his “pranks” … claiming that she has an unsightly mass of mucus visible in one of her nostrils. She does not have that, and she knows it, and it’s not helping her anxiety.

4. Nooooo

Shaeeda sween gives bilal hazziez a tap on his head
Shaeeda reacts with a “tap” on the back of Bilal’s head. There are two issues here — the first being that this kind of contact, however gentle, is hitting, which is not something that you do to your partner (or anyone else) without their consent. Different people have different communication styles and some are fine with elbow-nudging and playful smacks, and others are not. The second issue is that Bilal is driving.

5. It goes from bad to worse

Shaeeda sween playfully ignores bilal hazziezs boundaries
As calmly as possible, Bilal tells Shaeeda that what she’s doing is not okay, which for some reason causes her to fragrantly violate the boundary that he has just set. He warns her that this is (obviously!) unsafe to do to a driver. Even if we imagine that literally everyone in Trinidad is totally okay with her hands-on behavior, cars work the same way where she’s from.

6. He warns her to not do this again

Shaeeda sween ignores warning taps bilal hazziez again
Shaeeda responds … by doing it again, “tapping” (as she calls it) Bilal on the back of his head right after he told her that, if she did it again, he would pull over to the side of the road and have her Uber the rest of the way there.

Loren Brovarnik Explains Why She Got Pregnant with Baby #3 So Quickly

Timing is everything!

On Mother’s Day, Loren Brovarnik revealed that she is pregnant with Baby #3.

While people are happy for her and Alexei, some are taken aback that she is expecting another child already.

The announcement came less than nine months after Baby Asher’s birth. How did that happen?

Loren Brovarnik speaks IG Story (May 2022)

Shai is two years old. Asher is 8 months old.

Very soon, they will both be big brothers, as Loren is due as early as this autumn.

But considering that BabyB will be born just one year after Asher, and how soon after Shai the pair had Asher, fans have questions.

Obviously, most people are too polite to directly ask Loren why she keeps making Brovarniks.

But … obviously, some have asked her directly, including on social media Q&As.

This week, Loren took to her Instagram Stories to answer that invasive (but understandable) question.

So how, exactly, did Loren get pregnant with Baby #3 such a short time after welcoming baby Asher?

“When a man loves a woman, and a woman loves a man, and tequila is involved, things happen,” she replied.

She’s joking. Honestly, it’s pretty polite of her to have answered at all. It’s an impertinent question to ask directly.

While we kind of doubt that tequila played much of a role, what Loren means is that she and Alexei just happened to conceive.

This echoes her earliest statements about the pregnancy, made when she gave her announcement.

At the time, she told multiple outlets that it was “a surprise” that she was pregnant again already.

Loren’s goofy, patronizing answer basically just means that she and Alexei probably weren’t using contraception, but didn’t expect to conceive again so soon.

While the financial stability to do so is rare these days, some couples do just conceive whenever they happen to conceive until they have as many kids as they plan to have.

As for those plans, Loren has touched upon that topic in the past.

Alexei had apparently expressed a desire for “four” children.

Loren’s reply had been that only if their third pregnancy resulted in twins.

While they do not yet know the expected sex of their child (and are saving that knowledge for BabyB’s birth), presumably they are only expecting one baby at this time.

For some parents — many, in fact, the experience is simple.

Having two small kids is more than just twice the work of one child, as there are suddenly new concerns and problems and issues to handle.

Having three means even more — and also the reality of being “outnumbered” by their brood.

Some families do go on to have four children, or more.

While some parents joke that this is simply because “sleep deprivation” robbed them of their senses, it can also be intentional.

In some families, there is an ideology, like white supremacy or Christian Dominionism or, less directly, a disbelief in contraception, behind the drive to procreate.

Perhaps that (not the Christian Dominionism stuff, but more vague ideology stuff) is why people asked.

It’s also possible that some fans wondered if Loren and Alexei felt that they had a deadline.

Some families choose to have children sooner rather than later for specific goals, including to finish having kids so that one party can undergo a medically necessary surgery that will also render them infertile.

Loren and Alexei are making it clear that, frankly, it’s not that deep.

They boned, Loren got pregnant, and they’re welcoming Baby #3 this fall.

Sometimes, the simplest explanation is the right one.

Bilal Hazziez Tells Shaeeda Sween He’s Putting Her Out of His Car

From the start of this season of 90 Day Fiance, Bilal Hazziez has been putting up red flags in his treatment of Shaeeda Sween.

Playing weird mind games, testing her, criticizing her and keeping her on edge — these are manipulation tactics used by toxic partners.

In this sneak peek ahead of Sunday’s episode, Bilal tellls Shaeeda that he’s dropping her by the side of the highway.

The weirdest thing is that, in this instance, he might be in the right.

As this sneak peek ahead of Season 9, Episode 6 of 90 Day Fiance begins, Shaeeda and Bilal are in the car.

Shaeeda is deeply nervous about meeting Bilal’s ex-wife.

After the gauntlet of tests that he has already been putting her through, it’s no wonder that she’s on edge. It’s clearly intentional.

Instead of comforting Shaeeda, Bilal at first pretends to act like he doesn’t understand her anxiety.

Then, he decides to troll her in a truly tasteless, juvenile manner.

“You just might want to get that booger out of your nose,” Bilal claims to her, using a crude term for nasal mucus.

Shaeeda has clearly been put through of Bilal’s “pranks” to know when he’s lying, and denies it.

“Yes, you do,” he insists. “It’s green and brown-ish.”

Bilal even goes on to claim that there is a nose hair involved. Yuck.

“I’m getting sick and tired of you pranking me about this booger in my nose,” Shaeeda tells him.

“That’s an American thing. That is not a Trinidad thing,” she continues. “That is not my type of humor.”

For the record, it’s not an American thing either — not among adults with a sense of taste, anyway.

This is where things take a very different turn, however.

Shaeeda begins to retaliate by physically touching Bilal, who is driving.

“That’s disrespectful where I come from,” Bilal calmly tells her.

“So keep your hands to yourself and watch your tone,” Bilal demands.

(It’s unclear where the “tone” part of that came from, but the hands thing is extremely reasonable — don’t touch the driver, ever)

“Because I can literally pull over right now,” he warns her, “and you’ll be taking an Uber for the rest of the ride home.”

Shaeeda seems taken aback by Bilal’s objections, which … is odd.

First of all, even playfully, you don’t touch someone without their consent, especially if you’re swatting at them.

Secondly, and really more importantly in terms of personal safety, you absolutely do not touch the driver of a vehicle. That’s not cultural, it’s common sense.

After Shaeeda taps him on the back of the head in response to his objections, Bilal pulls over to the side of the road.

“You have to be a mad man to stop at the side of the road like this,” she declares.

Seemingly confused, Shaeeda asks: “Just because I gave you a little tap?”

The thing is that, up until this, Shaeeda was doing everything right — except that she hadn’t left Bilal yet.

Even in this sneak peek, she acknowledged that Bilal was very critical, even when she was in Trinidad, and had not let up now that she was here.

But this behavior was uncalled for, and it’s mystifying. She’s not the villain in the relationship, but in this moment, she’s the one acting up.

Michael Jessen and Juliana Custodio Finalize Divorce: We Can All Move On!

Earlier this year, 90 Day Fiance alums Juliana Custodio filed to divorce Michael Jessen.

The filing came as no surprise, as she was already living on another continent, had a new partner, and was already pregnant with her first child.

Now, Michael says that the divorce has been finalized.

He has other ongoing woes, but he says that Juliana “will be celebrating” this week.

On Wednesday, May 18, Michael Jessen posted to Facebook and then cross-posted to Instagram.

“Tomorrow,” he began, “two people will be celebrating that I am finally out of their life for good.”

Michael predicted: “And they will move on. … And so will I. …”

Michael Jessen divorce update 18 May 2022

“Myself,” Michael admitted, “I will not necessarily be ceelbrating.”

“But,” he said, “I will be continueto live life with many lew lessons learned and much more wisdom gained.”

Michael acknowledged: “Sometimes that is all we can expect from life.”

“Sincere best wishes,” Michael expressed, “and nothing but hopes of happiness for JC, BH, and their child to come.”

JC, of course, stands for Juliana Custodio. BH, of course, is Ben.

(As we have noted, he is known as Ben Obscura on social media, but that is because he is a photographer — obviously, it is not his real surname)

It looks like the 90 Day Fiance exes have both filed affidavits very recently.

With that out of the way, the marriage can be formally dissolved.

Given that Michael made the post on the 18, Thursday, May 19 sounds like the date of finalization. Congratulations to them both.

However, Juliana called out Michael after his post, speaking in Portuguese to express her displeasure with him having spoken publicly.

“What is the need to post for everyone to see?” she asked.

Juliana continued: “He loves to do the poor man’s line, people comment about it there, like this: Why expose this? Are you looking for attention? What’s the need to post this?”

Honestly, it’s not unusual for a reality star, even a former one, to give life updates, and Michael’s was fairly tasteful.

That said, given that Juliana has moved on in every conceivable way, it’s easy to understand her irritation, even if the rest of us don’t feel the same way.

Everyone has a right to share that they are getting a divorce, just as they have the right to share other milestones. That’s life.

Juliana Custodio, Michael Jessen, Sarah Naso on 90 Day Fiance Season 7

Unfortunately, Michael’s divorce being finalized does not mean that he can rest easy.

He has ongoing foreclosure proceedings related to his home, on which he reportedly stopped making payments as the pandemic hit.

(It’s good to remember that sometimes just as healthy people have been sickened, disabled, and killed by the virus itself, even affluent people were left financially devastated during the pandemic)

This case has been in mediation since last summer. Last month, Michael filed a motion to continue the mediation process.

The owner of his mortgage, however, has filed an objection.

One can only assume that the mortgage owner hopes to foreclose and sell the property, while Michael is clearly hoping for more time and a better outcome.

Michael Jessen and Juliana Custodio

Whatever we may think of Michael and Juliana’s story on the show — honestly, they were generally well-liked and many people were rooting for them — this is sad.

Yes, breakups happen, but we all wish that this had been more amicable.

And there’s nothing funny about a foreclosure. We wish Michael and Juliana well.

Speaking of Juliana, however, she has offered up an update on her glorious baby bump.

Her estimated due date is in July, and we are profoundly happy for her.

She looks gorgeous as always, and we wish her a healthy rest of her pregnancy and a safe delivery.

Evelyn Cormier and David Vazquez Zermeno Finalize Divorce: Whew, It’s Over!

Late last year, 90 Day Fiance alum Evelyn Cormier filed to divorce David Vazquez Zermeno.

Evelyn was not exactly a fan-favorite on her season, but she still went on to make a splash on American Idol.

Her marriage, however, turned out to be more of a wash — accusing him of emotional abuse, narcissism, and failing to hold up his end of the deal in the bedroom.

Now, the two have finalized their divorce.

It took just five months after Evelyn’s November divorce filing for the divorce process to be completed.

In Touch Weekly reports that a judge signed off on the divorce on April 22.

Evelyn and David are currently living on opposite coasts of the United States, so they both participated in the divorce electronically.

Some fans of 90 Day Fiance have expressed fear that Evelyn might return for a stint on 90 Day: The Single Life.

Earlier this year, Evelyn addressed whether she plans to make a franchise comeback.

“I’ve had several people ask me if I plan to be on 90 Day: Single Life, and my simple answer is no,” Evelyn stated.

Evelyn Cormier IG - breakup announcement

“At this point, I’m not thinking about my next relationship,” Evelyn shared in March.

“It’s so important to heal mentally and emotionally before jumping into anything new,” she affirmed.

“I want a healthy fresh start when I’m ready for it,” Evelyn added. “For now, I’m focusing on myself.”

Evelyn was only 18 years old when she appeared on 90 Day Fiance.

On a very recent episode of 90 Day Diaries, she confessed that she had realized her mistake in marrying so young.

“I knew immediately that I had made a really big mistake and I had to live with that,” she expressed to her family on camera.

“I married David when I was only 18,” Evelyn noted to producers.

“I think that I felt like, 18 is young but my parents did it. It worked out for them,” she added.

“I know that it’s okay to have issues in your relationship,” Evelyn shared, “but I was just blinded.”

One of the issues may have less to do with her youth and more to do with the age gap.

The difference in age between her and David, who is about 8 years her senior, might be insignificant now.

But when Evelyn was 18 years old, David was a grown man in his mid-twenties.

To make matters worse, there was how they met — on social media, chatting each other up on Instagram before meeting and, two weeks later, becoming engaged.

Many people meet on social media these days before becoming romantically entangled.

However, the timing of it all was not exactly how the two presented it on television.

90 Day Fiance Evelyn David First Interaction

As Evelyn and David’s storyline aired, cyber-sleuths dug up old, old interactions from Instagram.

They had begun “talking” in public comments when Evelyn was in her early teens — when David was already in his twenties.

That is not a meet cute. Depending upon what went on in their DMs, there could have been manipulation, inappropriate talk, and possibly (actual) grooming.

Some have joked (or not-quite-joked) that David lost interest in Evelyn because she became a grown woman in her twenties.

That might be unfair … or it might not … but people have a lot of questions about this creep.

Evelyn was the one who made a terrible on-screen impression, but ultimately David is the one who comes across as the true villain of their story.

After The 90 Days: Spinoffs Starring David & Annie, Loren & Alexei Renewed

There’s fantastic news for fan-favorites — and for the fans who gave them this honored status.

This year, Loren & Alexei: After The 90 Days and David & Annie: After The 90 Days premiered.

Without the drama, the tension, the screaming, the scamming, and the uncertainty, some wondered if the indulgent spinoffs could prosper.

They did prosper — and after performing so well with coveted demographics, both have been renewed!

Loren and Alexei Brovarnik laugh (preview)

Variety reports that both After The 90 Days spinoffs have been renewed.

Both David & Annie and Loren & Alexei were among the Top 5 debut series for a key demographic: women ages 18-34.

Later this year, we will get new seasons of both shows.

Loren Goldstone and Alexei Brovarnik first appeared on Season 3 of 90 Day Fiance.

This was one of the first seasons to gain real traction for the franchise, largely due to Mohamed Jbali and Danielle Mullins making waves — and headlines.

Loren and Alexei were a refreshing break from their contentious nonsense, and from the constant conflict of Russ and Paola Mayfield.

Loren Brovarnik After the 90 Days preview 08 of 09

Loren had met Alexei while traveling to Israel on a birthright trip, where Alexei was her group’s medic.

The two hotties hit it off, and ended up having dual weddings: one in Israel, the other in the United States.

These days, the fan-favorites are living in Florida … but they’re not living alone.

In 2020, amidst the early weeks of the COVID-19 pandemic, Loren gave birth to their first child, Shai.

Then, late last summer, Loren and Alexei welcomed Asher, their second child.

Asher had to spend some time in the NICU before they could bring him home.

Loren Brovarnik IG pregnancy #3

Earlier this month, Loren and Alexei announced that they are expecting Baby #3.

They are on the verge of being outnumbered by their offspring — all three of whom will be very young at the same time.

With this in mind, there’s no question why they had more to offer viewers than just one season.

Overall, Loren and Alexei brought an authentic and cooperative love story that made them fan-favorites.

They didn’t go into the show to launch a modeling career or to boost music, and Loren’s traditional mindset has appealed to harsher critics in the fandom.

Loren and Alexei are likable and, if not always relatable, very genuine.

David Toborowsky and Annie Suwan appeared years after Loren and Alexei first graced the screen, on Season 5.

At first, viewers were profoundly leery of them and of their story.

Some branded David a scammer and a creep and Annie a gold digger, and the pair were judged harshly.

David & Annie: After The 90 Days (IG renewal thanks May 2022)

It’s true that David was significantly older than Annie — in fact, he still is. That’s how time works.

Annie also imagined that David had a more affluent life than he did, especially after he paid her family a traditional dowry before marrying her.

In reality, he was crashing with a couple of friends, who not only gave him and his bride-to-be a place to stay, but even appeared on the show for free.

However, David and Annie did not give up on their romance despite some setbacks, and married.

It was after this that they began to win over fans, in part through a very responsive social media presence. People also love Annie’s cooking show.

They are a true 90 Day Fiance success story, making enough in the last few years to recently purchase a $550,000 home.

David Toborowsky and Annie Suwan with Jordan and Amber (preview)

Right now, one of their focuses is upon bringing over Annie’s younger sibling and one cousin to the United States.

Their goal is to obtain legal guardianship and acquire visas, to give them both a better life and a better future.

We of course wish them the best of luck on their continuing journey.

Mohamed Abdelhamed Demands Yvette Arellano Serve Him Breakfast in Bed on 90 Day Fiance

Mohamed Abdelhamed enjoyed his first morning in America on this week’s 90 Day Fiance.

He woke up in Yvette Arellano’s bed, with his love by his side.

But it was not entirely what he wanted — because Mohamed wanted to mark the special day with breakfast in bed.

Mohamed expected Yvette to cater to his desires, and felt “frustrated” when she went to work instead of waiting on him like his mother does.

On Season 9, Episode 5 of 90 Day Fiance, Mohamed and Yvette awoke together.

They made no secret of their less-than-restful night’s sleep. It had, after all, been a long time since they last saw each other.

Unfortunately, their morning ritual was cut short by necessity — Yve had to go.

Mohamed seemed surprised that Yvette had to leave the house, asking where she was going.

She explained that she had to go to work — because she has a job, but also because she has to support herself, him, and her son Theron.

Mohamed cannot work without a work visa, which is months away, so she can’t take time off. Not even on his first day.

When Yvette told him this, however, he seemed to almost short-circuit as he processed the information.

Mohamed told the camera that his “dream” had been that, to mark this special day, Yve would cook breakfast in bed for him.

Many of us enjoy breakfast in bed, but very few people actually expect it.

Yvette did not leave Mohamed entirely empty-handed, however.

Since he wants a bidet for the bathroom (he insists that he cannot live without it), Yve offered to let him install it as his project for the day.

She had tried, but was unsure of how to do it.

As Yvette led him into the kitchen, however, Mohamed seemed confused.

“I thought you were going to make me breakfast,” he said in disbelief, as if hoping that the pout in his tone would change her mind.

She could not, however, because she had to go to work, as she had patients with appointments.

Yvette instead laid out various ingredients for Mohamed to make breakfast, presumably knowing what he likes.

Still, Mohamed was stunned at having to prepare his meal, “because my mom, she usually cooks for me.”

Mohamed brings up his mother an awful lot while discussing his fiancee.

Mohamed expressed that he felt “frustrated” with Yvette for not preparing him breakfast in bed in accordance with his fantasy.

His mother has always done these things for him, and he has never lived with a woman before.

He attempted to install the bidet, but to no avail, seemingly hoping that Yve would take care of it when she returns.

The one highlight of their time together was when Mohamed met Theron, Yvette’s son.

She had been uncertain of how he would react to her son’s developmental delays and medical needs.

But the two embraced, and Mohamed gushed to the camera about how welcomed he felt.

90 Day Fiance fans have been putting Mohamed on blast since this, however.

From calling him “Hamza 2.0” to referring to his mother-fiancee confusion as the “Oedipal Olympics,” his critics are not mincing words.

Yvette is working to support him, herself, and her son — it’s not reasonable for him to expect her to labor for him at home before and after work, too. She’s not his mom.

Patrick Mendes: Does He Really Own that Nice House in Austin, Texas?

Both on his introductory episode and on the latest 90 Day Fiance episode, we have seen Patrick Mendes’ home and lifestyle.

Just because he did not make it to the Olympics doesn’t mean that he couldn’t succeed.

Patrick clearly lives in a very nice home.

Naturally, fans are wondering if he owns it … or if he gave himself a temporary upgrade to film the show.

Patrick Mendes is no longer allowed to train women at his job (GF's orders)

Patrick Mendes is a 31-year-old 90 Day Fiance cast member from Austin, Texas.

He is head over heels in love with Thais Ramone, eager for her arrival from Brazil.

He also has a visibly nice home, both inside and out.

Patrick Mendes home in Austin, Texas

Patrick is not the only person this season with a nice house — Bilal Hazziez very obviously (albeit infamously) comes to mind.

But Bilal is old enough to have a teenage daughter, and is a real estate broker.

Patrick is 31, making him a Millennial — part of a generation for whom home ownership is a struggle to attain, let alone a 1990s-scale house like the one that Patrick and his brother inhabit.

Patrick Mendes is 31

A nice house in a major city does not come cheaply, with tens of millions of Americans priced out of home ownership by sprawling corporations buying up the market.

Some speculate that Patrick may have rented a house that is outside of his sustainable budget, just to film the show.

Hey, Real Housewives do that kind of thing all of the time.

Patrick Mendes lives with his brother, John

Meanwhile, others wondered if Patrick was not just being generous when he invited his brother, John, to live with him.

Yes, some fans believe that Patrick was giving John a place to live (and helped him get a job with his company) after John went through some unspecified run of bad luck.

Others wonder if John is paying rent to Patrick to make living in the home economically feasible.

Patrick Mendes has to tell Thais where he is at all times

It’s also possible that Patrick, who at one point admitted that he misses out on about “$1,000 a day” by taking days off of work to visit Brazil, is making serious money.

We don’t know how many days he works a week or what that schedule looks like, just that he is a regional manager for a home security company.

But based upon that, he could be pulling in a hefty six-figure salary, even about a quarter of a million each year. Potentially

Patrick Mendes holds up a cute little dog

The good folks over at Starcasm did some digging, and yes, Patrick owns the house — well, sort of.

Patrick was still married to his first wife in 2018, when the two purchased the property (seemingly new at the time) for $489,900.

They did take out a mortgage for 95% of the price of the 2,615 square foot house.

Patrick Mendes met his first girlfriend / ex-wife at the gym

Patrick’s wife filed for divorce in January 2020. By the end of the year, they had a divorce agreement, and she signed over the house to him.

So he owns it, right?

Well, Patrick owned the house — past tense. He sold it in December of 2021.

Patrick Mendes works out

Patrick sold the house, presumably for something in the ballpark of the $799,000 asking price.

This sale came after tens of thousands of dollars in upgrades.

While the timeline clearly shows that Patrick didn’t purchase the house as a backdrop for filming only to flip it, he likely came away with some extra pocket change, even after all of the relevant expenses.

Patrick Mendes reunited with Thais Ramone at the airport

Naturally, there are some very logical questions that follow when it comes to the sale of the house.

Is Patrick still living with John, his brother? Is Patrick still living with Thais — is she his wife?

He could be living solo in an apartment somewhere, or this crowd of three could just be in a new home — or anything in between.

Kobe Blaise Wants Emily Bieberly’s Breasts All for Himself on 90 Day Fiance (Recap)

90 Day Fiance Season 9 marches on, with Episode 5 giving viewers some beautiful reunions … and potential new villains.

Kobe has just met his son for the first time, but decided to call out where Emily feeds him — and that she does it at all.

Ariela and Biniyam touch down in the United States, but a generous gift from Ari’s parents may turn into a burden on their family.

Bilal has a new test for Shaeeda, and it involves his children.

Guillermo is finally reunited with his and Kara’s dog and meets Kara’s family — and he’s so adorably nervous about the whole thing.

Thais introduces herself to viewers, revealing that there are big things that neither Patrick nor her father know yet.

Mohamed’s first morning in America doesn’t go at all like he imagined, because Yvette has to go to work.

1. Emily Bieberly and Kobe Blaise

Kobe blaise tells emily bieberly this is not normal
After warm celebrations, Emily sits down to pump some milk. After spending a couple of days picking up Kobe, Koban probably ran through a good bit of what she had already pumped. But Kobe decides to call her out, claiming that this is “not normal.”

2. He thinks that she should nurse and pump elsewhere

Emily bieberly where am i supposed to go downstairs
Every now and then, there’s a viral social media post about a woman getting shamed for breastfeeding somewhere — on a park bench, in a museum, that sort of thing. In each case, the bad guy is demanding that she go elsewhere, or “cover up,” or both, and is almost universally dragged by the collective internet. Kobe is taking that even further, suggesting that Emily should pump elsewhere even though she is in her own home.

3. Kobe says that women are more “discreet” in Africa

Kobe blaise in africa women will be a little more discreet
Africa is a sprawling continent full of various languages, cultures, and traditions across more than 50 countries. I’m not going to try to whitesplain away Kobe’s observations, but as many 90 Day Fiance fans can attest, numerous viewers who are from Africa have already taken to social media to say that Kobe’s experience is not theirs, and that, in their cultures, breasts are less sexualized and therefore breastfeeding is less stigmatized. Of course, all of that may be moot, as Emily and Koban — and now Kobe — are not in Africa right now.

4. There’s more to it than just where and when

Kobe blaise how youre gonna have to like stop him
Kobe’s suggestion that Emily breastfeed elsewhere was already unreasonable, but he is also expressing a desire for Emily to simply stop breastfeeding their son altogether. According to Kobe, he brought this up even before coming to the United States. He says that his sister stopped nursing her baby at 7 months, and that he’s never known anyone to breastfeed past 10 months.

5. Well …

Cameroon child malnutrition deaths 38 percent under age 5
Almost every health organization on the planet, including Cameroon’s government, recommends breastfeeding until 2 years if not longer. More than one-third of child deaths before the age of five in that country are related to malnutrition, with other children having growth stunted. International studies have noted that there are challenges, including cultural resistance, to breastfeeding programs in Cameroon. While breastfeeding is not an option for everyone and not a fix-all solution, it is possible that Kobe is unfamiliar with the health benefits that Koban is receiving. (And, more to the point, we’re talking about a toddler and his mom — the only people who should be part of this decision)

6. Kobe has his own motive

Kobe blaise i have to suck her breasts
He is unwilling to “share” Emily’s breasts, and says so pretty directly. We’re not kink-shaming Kobe (or anyone else), and we can only speculate about what questions producers may have asked to get him to say this, but it’s a little weird to put yourself into an imaginary competition with your kid.

Ariela Weinberg Blindsided by Parents: I Have to Pay Rent and Bills?!

On last weekend’s 90 Day Fiance, Ariela and Biniyam left Ethiopia after one final clash with his sisters, Mimi and Wish.

The plan is to live in New Jersey, in an apartment very close to where Ari’s family lives.

Excitement over their arrival is dampened somewhat when her parents drop a bombshell on her and Bini.

They’ve set up the apartment, but Ari will have to start covering the rent and bills very quickly … on an apartment that she didn’t pick out herself.

In this sneak peek clip ahead of Season 9, Episode 5, a very fatigued Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre are still recovering from their long flight.

They’re at the apartment with Ariela’s parents, Janice and Dr. Fred Weinberg, which is a very short distance from the family home.

Janice explains that the apartment has a deposit paid, is already hooked up with cable and wifi, and the first month’s rent is already covered.

Janice blindsides Ari, however, when she says that they will need to talk about when Ariela and Bini can start picking up the tab — in the next few months.

“You have to work out a plan for your own sustainability, to lead a life you want to lead,” Fred reasons.

He does emphasize: “We definitely want to help.”

On the one hand, that is a totally reasonable thing on its own — Ariela’s parents are being generous, but want Ari and Bini to be reasonably independent.

Even so, someone choosing an apartment that they will have to pay for would pick a cheaper option … and wouldn’t give themselves a massive cable bill each month.

Ariela admits that, if it were up to her, she’d have picked a cheaper apartment, and feels like she’s been handed a bill for something that she didn’t order.

“This is a big stress on us right away,” Ari expresses.

She explained: “getting the two-bedroom, the expensive apartment, the expensive place and with the expensive cable and everything.”

“And then,” Ariela continues, “telling us, ‘Oh, by the way, you have to pay for all of it so get a job really fast.'”

“I mean, we have no idea what the future holds,” Ariela admits.

She affirms to the camera that she is of course grateful for her parents and aprpeciates the help.

But she knows that, with Biniyam unable to work for many months (until he gets his work visa) and her unsure what job she can get, this isn’t very realistic.

“Bini and I have only a few thousand dollars to last us in the U.S.,” Ariela reveals.

“The immigration process is expensive and, you know, we moved countries,” she points out.

Ari adds: “It’s day one and we already have to face this financial stress.”

“Bini and I had the expectation that when we get to America, everything would be different and new and exciting,” Ariela admits.

“And it would be a chance to work on our relationship,” she reasons, “spend time as a family, and start over again.”

“But, I think neither of us really know long-term how we’re going to provide for the family,” Ariela confesses. “And it’s really scary, like, what if this doesn’t work out?”

Ariela Weinberg and Wish Shibre Share What REALLY Happened at the Airport

On last weekend’s episode of 90 Day Fiance, Ariela had one final clash with Biniyam’s sisters before the couple left Ethiopia.

This time, the conflict was indirect, but it still looked like Ari was giving them the cold shoulder, and Bini’s sisters were sobbing.

But Wish says that the reason that they were crying was different than what viewers may assume.

And Ariela has her own piece of the puzzle to add.

On Season 9, Episode 4 of 90 Day Fiance, Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre set off for New Jersey.

Viewers have followed the engaged couple on two seasons of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, witnessing the birth of baby Aviel, their engagement, and a whole lot of problems.

While this trip is almost indisputably the best thing for Bini and Ari’s relationship, his sisters fear that it is the worst thing for him.

Mimi Shibre - don't be naive. just take care of yourself

Even before Bini headed to the airport, he met with concerned family.

His sisters, Mimi and Wish, encouraged him to be smart and to not be “naive” or foolish.

They fear that he will get his heart broken, as he was once before, when a different American woman had his baby but later divorced him.

Biniyam Shibre - pray for us (reunion with firstborn)

His family hopes, however, that Biniyam’s trip to the United States will do more than just save his relationship with Ariela.

(Biniyam’s time in Ethiopia, both with and without Ari, was filled with so many incidents of alleged cheating and otherwise bad partnership that a split seemed almost inevitable)

Bini’s ex-wife, Bria, lives in the United States with their son, Simon.

There have been a lot of claims made on social media about the truth of Simon’s custody situation.

Some believe that Bria all but kidnapped their son. Others have claimed to know for a fact that Bini signed away his own parental rights.

All that we know for certain is that Biniyam has not seen his firstborn in years, and has been deeply affected by losing his family.

Wish Shibre - we also wanna say bye to Avi

At the airport, we saw Wish and Mimi arrive with other family.

Biniyam’s niblings hugged and kissed him goodbye.

And his sisters were eager to say goodbye to little Avi.

Wish and Mimi Shibre - is she willing to let us kiss the child?

Ariela remained in the van with Avi during that farewell, largely because her last encounter with the sisters had ended with a face full of wine.

Wish and Mimi asked if they could kiss Avi goodbye.

While Ariela privately told Bini that Avi was settled into his car seat, she didn’t deny the sisters permission to kiss him goodbye.

Ariela Weinberg affirms that Bini's sisters can kiss Avi

Instead, as we oh-so-briefly heard Ariela say, the sisters could come kiss Avi goodbye while he remained seated in the van.

She acknowledged that their behavior had been over-the-top, but affirmed that they could kiss him goodbye.

(Again, we’re talking like 24 hours at the most since the wine-throwing incident)

Biniyam Shibre - Avi is sleeping

Based upon what we saw, it doesn’t look like Biniyam relayed the full message to his sisters.

Maybe he was trying to avoid further conflict. We don’t know what he was thinking.

All that we do know is that Bini told them that Avi was sleeping … which they interpreted as Ariela denying them a farewell with baby Avi.

Mimi Shibre - we feel she is evil

Mimi did not mince words when speaking to the camera about how she feels.

“We feel she is evil,” she declared.

Those are harsh words — even from the women who spoke repeatedly about their newborn nephew being condemned to literal eternal hellfire.

Mimi Shibre - he is naive

The sisters continued to express serious concerns about Biniyam’s happiness and overall well-being.

While Ariela has caved to Bini on most disagreements while in Ethiopia, clearly his siblings worry that the opposite will be true in New Jersey.

Instead of being surrounded by his family, he’ll be surrounded by hers. He knows them, but how will he adapt?

Biniyam Shibre and Ariela Weinberg and Avi on a plane

Those are all fair questions, but to hear a couple of the cast members themselves tell it, we’re not getting the full story.

Ariela took to Instagram to emphasize that she did not deny Wish and Mimi a chance to say goodbye to Avi.

She knows that the show’s editing tries to present her in a certain way, but she’s horrified by family being cut off from each other and would never do that.

Ariela Weinberg IG explains airport farewell

Then, Wish had her own side of things to share on her own Instagram Story.

Wish explained that her tears, and Mimi’s, were partially taken out of context.

They weren’t just sad to see Bini and Avi go — they were also tearful because of a parting gift to their brother.

Wish Shibre IG explains tears, Simon's baby shoes

“We were not crying over a grown man moving somewhere else,” Wish wrote.

“We had kept his first son’s [Simon] shoes from when he was [little],” she explained, “and we decided to surprise gift it to him as a leaving gift.”

That sounds heartbreaking. Whatever the true circumstances of how Biniyam came to part ways with Simon, that is emotionally devastating.

David Toborowsky and Annie Suwan Score Half-Million Dollar New Home!

When 90 Day Fiance viewers last caught up with David and Annie Toborowsky, it was on their very own spinoff.

Months have passed since then.

Now, the fan-favorite couple — once infamous for their on-screen financial struggles — have achieved real success.

David and Annie have now purchased a gorgeous, and roomy, new home.

In Touch Weekly has learned that David and Annie have magnificent new house in Fountain Hills, Arizona.

The deed is solely in Annie’s name.

The purchase price for the 2,219 square foot home was $550,000

The house boasts four bedrooms, two-and-a-half bathrooms, and is a townhome.

The residence includes a two-car garage, a community pool, and in places has 20-foot-high ceilings.

Like many contemporary homes, it includes an open floor plan, meaning that many rooms blend into one another — for better or for worse.

According to the report, the kitchen includes black granite countertops and an island.

The living room is painted a dazzling red and includes a fireplace, while the master bedroom includes a large closet and a jacuzzi bathtub.

The two-story townhome sounds like a wonderful residence.

David and Annie actually decided to make Fountain Hills their home after falling in love with the community a couple of years ago.

The story begins with the horror of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As many of us can recall, Annie stepped up and sewed hundreds of face masks for frontline workers in 2020.

David drove some masks to a pharmacist who had requested them.

Once in Fountain Hills to make his delivery, he fell in love with the local community.

David and Annie had previously lived in Scottsdale, but now they’ve found a charming new abode.

David and Annie discuss their marriage

Many fans who have followed the couple’s recent adventures have perked up at the fact that this home has four bedrooms.

Obviously, “bedroom” really just means a room that has a closet — any of these could be used as a guest room, as an office, as a craft room, or more.

But some have wondered if David and Annie expect to need room for more than just the two of them on a broader basis.

On the couple’s recent spinoff, viewers saw the fan-favorites travel to Thailand.

There, the pair hoped to become guardians of Annie’s 14-year-old brother, Jordan, and of her 16-year-old cousin, Amber.

Unfortunately, the student visas were denied — but the Toborowskys vowed to keep trying.

Annie is unsure if she wants to have any children of her own, beyond guardianship of existing relatives.

And David wisely had a vasectomy some time ago, which would need to be reversed in order for him to have biological children.

Maybe they just need guest rooms — certainly, this popular pair have had many fun hangouts with friends and other members of the franchise’s ever-growing cast.

Regardless of their intentions for the house, it is a massive upgrade from the first impression that David and Annie made upon viewers in Season 5.

David had major financial struggles — especially after paying a hefty dowry to Annie’s parents.

At first, they had to live on the good graces of David’s friend.

Chris Thieneman hugs David Toborowsky

However, David and Annie made some of the best use of their 90 Day Fiance fame that we’ve ever seen from the franchise.

Capitalizing upon their likability and platform, the two turned a brief stint on reality television into a jumping off point for other projects.

From fashion importing to Annie’s cooking show, David and Annie are a 90 Day Fiance success story. We’re excited to see them show off their new home!

Colt Johnson and Vanessa Guerra: Still Married! Living in Different Homes!

When the world last checked in with Colt Johnson and Vanessa Guerra, the two had separated.

To hear them tell it, it wasn’t Colt being caught DMing other gals that was throwing a wrench into their marriage.

Instead, they put most of the blame at the feet of Debbie, Colt’s mom.

Nearly a year into their marriage, where do things stand now?

Colt Johnson and Vanessa Guerra react to the no-show situation

On this week’s 90 Day Diaries, Colt Johnson and Vanessa Guerra offered an update.

“We’ve been married about 10 months now,” Vanessa shared to the camera.

With that date, this was filmed in December 2021. 90 Day Diaries doesn’t require as many months to film and edit as the main shows do.

Though she and Colt are still joined in wedlock, they are not truly living together.

“I’ve been staying at my cousin’s house for the past month,” Vanessa revealed.

Their arrangement gets even weirder.

According to Colt, he spends the day with his mom — every day.

Each night, he spends with Vanessa.

That is not a recipe for a happy marriage, and clearly they are both feeling that.

Colt Johnson and Debbie Johnson in Tell All preview (Single Life s2)

Colt was the first to admit that he has not put his “best foot forward” in this marriage.

He characterized his actions as “coddling” his mother while simultaneously “taking advantage” of Vanessa’s patience.

But Colt being joined at the hip to Debbie is nothing new, so why isn’t Vanessa just along for the ride?

According to Vanessa, a grown woman, she felt more “freedom” at her cousin’s house than she does with her husband and mother-in-law.

She explained that Debbie would “meddle” in her marriage.

Vanessa also accused Debbie of hovering and offering criticism while she performed everyday tasks around the house — even just while cooking breakfast.

Colt Johnson and Vanessa Guerra have separated

Vanessa sounds like she blames herself, at least in part.

She says that she and Colt never really “discussed” what their lives would look like together as a married couple before they got married.

Vanessa very naturally assumed that they would live together as spouses, but Colt apparently didn’t think about moving … at all.

“If I could go back and change anything,” Vanessa admitted to the camera, “I would probably really discuss our future before getting married.”

Now, 90 Day Diaries is just that — it’s a check-in with cast members and couples, not a season-long journey.

We didn’t get any real resolution from this, and we likely won’t … unless these two chuckleheads show up on a future episode, or even season.

The real takeaway from Colt and Vanessa’s ongoing issues (and we don’t just mean Debbie, who makes a convenient scapegoat) is a little different.

A lot of people may owe Larissa Lima an apology.

While Colt’s cheating scandal while married to Larissa was much worse than his possibly isolated DMing incident last year, a lot of this sounds familiar.

Colt Johnson drives his mom to her date

Debbie and Larissa get along these days — it’s actually wonderful to see their social media exchanges.

As the years have gone by, more and more people are rethinking how they viewed that marriage and people involved.

Larissa is over-the-top and a little out of her mind, but after watching Colt with Jess and now with Vanessa, he seems to be a bigger issue than any of the women in his life — including his mom.

Are Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer Married?

Even after viewers witnessed Kara and Guillermo’s first disagreement, the two are a favored couple this season.

90 Day Fiance fans often try to guess which couples will make it down the aisle and which will call it quits — or face delays.

Did Kara and Guillermo overcome their differences and tie the knot before their K-1 visa ran out?

We now know the answer.

Guillermo Rojer reacts excitedly to America with Kara Bass

Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer are married!

In Touch Weekly got a look at the Virginia Wedding Registry.

Court records show that Kara and Guillermo tied the knot in Albemarle County, on July 23, 2021.

That means that, in a month and a half, Kara and Guillermo will celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary.

(Well, not to be shady, but only if they’re still together — we’re rooting for them, but we can acknowledge that things happen)

The Chief Deputy Sheriff of Charlottesville officiated the civil ceremony.

Guillermo Rojer and Kara Bass wake up together in Charlottesville

This was Kara’s first marriage. It was also Guillermo’s first marriage.

That is no surprise, since we’re talking about a pair of twenty-somethings.

Court documents also reveal that the two share an address in Ruckersville, Virginia — Kara’s hometown (just outside of Charlottesville).

Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer fell for each other very quickly

All in all, we are very happy — and thoroughly unsurprised to see that Kara and Guillermo made it down the aisle.

It’s always statistically likely that couples on 90 Day Fiance — the original, not necessarily the spinoffs — end up marrying.

By the time that a K-1 visa is granted, they are years into a relationship and have invested a lot of time, money, and emotions into the relationship.

Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer emerge triumphant

Statistics and a hefty dose of sunk cost fallacy aside, it’s also just good to hear that Kara and Guillermo are married.

They both seem like nice people who genuinely care about each other.

Their “age gap” is a mere six years. These are two grown adults who are in their twenties, with the exact same age dynamic as Jibri and Miona. It’s nothing.

Guillermo and Kara en route to America (90 Day Fiance S09)

And the one “fight” that the two have had so far, on screen, was … basically nothing.

Guillermo made a good and valid point about wanting a computer. Kara made a good and valid point about needing to save money.

The only “red flag” was that they argued about it at all instead of quickly working out the obvious solution (buy a cheaper computer, like a desktop PC).

Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer ride in Punta Cana, DR

It looks like a lot of their conflict in the immediate future is going to stem from outsiders.

From Kara’s uncle to an ex, not everyone will be as welcoming to her hot fiance (and now husband) as Kara was.

Trailers for the season also teased some jealousy issues, but so far, this looks like a couple included to remind us that non-toxic and loving partners do exist.

Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer seated separately on the flight

That said, early impressions can be deceiving, and we are only four episodes in.

Couples can and do surprise us as seasons go on.

And some more misogynistic viewers are already expressing loathing towards Kara, just as weary fans predicted.

Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer reunited in the DR

Speaking of predicting things, we had more or less called that these two would end up together after a friend of Kara’s slipped up.

In an Instagram post, the friend’s caption referred to Kara and Guillermo as married.

Now, we have true confirmation, and we couldn’t be happier for them.
