Today we will be providing some news on the current cast members of 90 day fiancé.
We will be talking about Memphis addressing the backlash on social media,
Kimberly suffering a devastating loss,
and fans urging the network to cancel Alina from the show.
90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days star Memphis wants fans to know that the show isn’t really “reality”
and that her fiance Hamza deserves all the blame for insulting his mother.
Memphis had the simple plan of landing in Tunisia and getting married to Hamza in two weeks.
But she soon learned that Hamza has been keeping a lot of secrets from her
especially how they wouldn’t be sharing a bed until marriage.
Language barrier aside, Memphis values physical chemistry and wanted to test drive some “sеxy time” with Hamza either way.
Hamza’s mom was clear she would like her guest, Memphis to stay in a separate room
until she and her son get married
However, Hamza decided to sneak in at night to spend some sеxy time with his soon-to-be-wife.
Hamza’s mom Hayet discovered the couple spent the night together
and SHE was very angry at the young couple not obeying her house rules.
Both Memphis and Hamza received backlash for having pre-marital intimаte relationship under his mom’s roof.
According to some fans, these episodes may pose threat to Hamza’s family’s safety.
Some viewers called Memphis disrespectful and bashed her for not doing her homework on her fiancé’s culture.
Memphis has addressed the situation on her social media
Firstly, Memphis posted to her Instagram that we should not believe everything we see on reality TV.
"I SEE I HAVE TO ADDRESS SOMETHING'S (sic!)"
AND AT THIS POINT I DO NOT CARE IF I GET IN TROUBLE.
ALL OF YOU PEOPLE WHO WATCH THIS SHOW SHOULD UNDERSTAND BY NOW
THAT EVERYTHING IS NOT ALWAYS AS IT SEEMS
AND WHAT IS PICTURED IS MOST OF THE TIME NOT REALITY!
NOT ONLY THAT BUT DO ANY OF YOU EVER THINK THINGS WERE TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT OR EDITED A CERTAIN WAY?
IF YOU FEEL A CERTAIN WAY COMPLAIN ON A BLOG SITE NOT MY PAGE OR I WILL BLOCK YOU!
Memphis also commented on the situation on her stories.
She said it is Hamza who is to blame as he is Muslim, and she is not.
In a reply to a fan on social media Memphis said that so called “fans” are quick to judge her,
and this is because society is quick to blame women.
According to Memphis, it is Hamza who needs to be held accountable.
The fellow Before the 90 Days star Kimberly shared some sad news with her fans.
Her mother, Sally sadly passed away on Monday, January 10th.
Sally appeared on 90 day fiancé when Kim was getting ready for her trip to Tanzania to meet Usman “SojaBoy”.
Despite not being mobile due to her disability, Sally was a very positive and independent person.
On 90 day fiancé Kim noted that she was her mom’s caregiver and loves her more than anything.
In December Kim posted that her mom was sick, but she was starting to feel better.
Unfortunately, the 90 day fiance star had some sad news to share to her followers.
“My mom passed away last night,” Kim captioned an Instagram photo gallery of herself and her mom.
“No one will ever understand how close her and I were.
She was my #1 supporter and my best friend.
I will miss you for the rest of my life but I know you will always be with me and in my heart.
I love you Mommy.
Kim’s on-screen love interest Usman also posted about Sally’s passing:
"It’s hard and difficult to believe that MOMMEY has gone,
you are a wonderful and amazing mother to us and we will never forget you.
we will be praying for you even though we know you are resting in Perfect Peace.
Usman’s post was accompanied by a screen shot of himself having a video conversation with Sally.
Finally, we will be talking about Alina from this season of Before the 90 Days causing a controversy online.
Alina is the first ever little person to be cast on 90 day fiancé and on the show she’s dating an average height person, Caleb.
Alina listed on of the reasons of her being on the show is to demonstrate, that there is more to her life than her disаbility.
According to Alina, we rarely see little people on dating shows, especially when it comes to dating people of average height .
Even on her social media Alina takes a stance against ableism, and said that she would not stand it
She also posted that she does not tolerate any form of discrimination and mocking people for something they can't change
However, Alina has gotten into controversy herself.
The Russian native was posting throwback photos to the year she spent in the United States in the early 2010s.
Back then, she was an exchange student and lived for a year with an American family.
Alina posted some photos where she was posing as a man.
In the caption Alina wrote that they had a "gender bеnder" day in school,
which some of the online users found an offensive term to use nowadays.
However, Alina also posted a throwback photo just recently. In the caption she used a rаcial slur,
though spelled differently.
Needless to say, this caused a lot of discussion on 90 day fiancé forums.
Most of the fans found using this rаcial slur to be highly inappropriate and offensive.
Some fans tried to defend Alina saying she’s a foreigner and may not understand that this word is offensive.
To that, people replied that since Alina was living in the U.S. for a year before
and she made sure to change the spelling, she knew the word was offensive enough.
Previously, Alina commented in an interview about how the audiences' stance on homоphobia and rаcism has changed
Some viewers go as far as to call for TLC to cancel Alina off the show.
After all, SojaBoy’s wife Lisa was fired after the viewers found out she called Usman the same rаcial slur during the unaired Tell All episode.
TLC have not only canceled her contract for an upcoming spin-off,
but even made sure to not mention her name on the new season with Usman.
Now fans are wondering if Alina will get canceled.
Alina has since removed the post, but she has not addressed the backlash on social media.
