’90 Days’: TJ Stands Up For Kim In Fierce Clash As His Brother Says ‘The World Revolves Around Her’ (Exclusive)
Kimberly and TJ
With the couple’s wedding four days away, Kimberly and TJ hit the road to visit their venue for the first time. Despite the explosive feud she had with TJ’s brother Yash, the Alabama native remained positive about their upcoming nuptials and they met with a decorator to finalize the final details.
Kimberly told the salesperson that she would have preferred light pink and white details, instead of the hot pink chairs she saw lying around the space. In a confessional interview, she admitted that she always imagined her “dream wedding” in “a forest with lights hanging from the trees [and] candles everywhere. Lots of white with ballet pink details.”
“But in India you do your best. Everything is in color!” she added before noting that she had a “good feeling” about the place.

With Kimberly’s demand for perfection, TJ admitted that he felt nervous about what she would think of the closing ceremony as he had planned most of the details while she was in America.
“I’m happy she’s excited about the wedding,” he told the cameras. “But on the other hand I’m worried because she’s so specific about the things she wants. [She wants] perfection and all.”
TJ continued, “There are many things that are different about Indian weddings than American weddings. And since she wasn’t that involved in the wedding planning, I’m worried that on the day of the wedding she might find something to get upset about and spoil the wedding festivities.”
In an attempt to reconcile their differences from the night before, Kimberly joined TJ to talk to Yash and his mother and father to clear up any misunderstandings before his father’s visit. But as soon as Kimberly entered the room, her future mother-in-law objected to her ripped jeans and demanded that she learn some “manners” and adhere to Indian customs.

“You need to stop a little, have a little patience,” TJ defended his intention as Yash started to add to the pile.
When he asked them if they had any intention of working things out, TJ’s mother feigned innocence on Yash’s behalf and claimed that Kimberly was “unpleasant” and making “baseless accusations”.
The tension began to rise and things became too much for Kimberly, who left the room.
“The only thing I wanted was not to be stuck in the middle of people yelling at me or about me in a foreign language I don’t understand. They are just rude,” she said to the cameras. “I’m worried about TJ. I feel bad because I feel like this is all my fault, but I won’t live in this kind of environment. I grew up in a toxic household. I won’t do it again.”

Kirsten and Julio
Kirsten and Julio reached the end of the road when he announced his decision to stay in America despite his promise to move to the Netherlands.

“Well, I don’t think I can wait another year because it’s so hard for me mentally,” she admitted before Julio suggested they end the relationship.

“He’s acting like a complete s—. I’m really hurt because I don’t know if Julio had real intentions to spend the rest of his life with me… Did he even care about me? I’m not sure anymore.”
After suggesting that the best thing to do is break up, Julio admitted, “It’s not a good feeling to know that I broke someone’s heart.
“I feel like…” he told the cameras. “I still love Kirsten, but I think we have to really, you know, assess the situation and really see things for what they are. I feel like me and Kirsten lived in a fantasy world for most of our relationship.”
Mary and Brandon
Mary and Brandan run into a few financial problems after he admits that he won’t have enough money to pay the bills next month.
After Typhoon Odette destroyed her family home, Brandan sent Mary $70,000 to build a new house. Although the house was completed, Mary revealed that she had moved her grandparents into the house to accommodate their old age, and she and her brother lived in a house that was in ruins.
Mary conducted it before the couple sat down to discuss their financial situation. When he discovered that he would be short on bills, Mary devoted herself to selling necklaces, while Brandon admitted that it might not be enough.

“Any chance we can go see your grandfather for something, a loan or something?” he asked before Mary dismissed the “grandparent dependency” idea.
Bursting into tears, she continued: “I just don’t want to ask him for help anymore because he has already sacrificed so much. I don’t want to stress him out. He is old, you have to understand that.”
“I definitely didn’t expect Mary to react like this,” Brandan admitted to the cameras. “It’s a little too much. I don’t know what he earns on the farm and what he spends the money on, but I know he didn’t spend it on the house. I’m the one who did it. So a small loan could help us a lot.”

When Brandan brought up the ways he had sacrificed to earn money to send Mary to finance his home and data plan, she acknowledged the things he had given up to provide for her, noting that his quality of life in America was much different than back home. Philippines.
“I know how Brandan was struggling and I wanted to cry when I saw him like that,” she said in the confessional. “But people in America have government support, like food stamps. Here in the Philippines, not all people will receive support. They have no roof when it rains. They have nothing to cook with, and not even a toilet for poo. Poop everywhere, [they] poop in the river. So he hasn’t experienced real combat here in the Philippines.”
Mary put her foot down and Brandan agreed not to push things any further.
Speaking to the cameras, he said: “Mary is my future, she is the one I love and I want us to grow old together.” So I’ll make sure we’re happy and successful. For me, all this struggle is definitely worth it.”
Shekinah and Sarper
Ahead of Shekinah’s move to Turkey, Sarper admitted he was more than smitten with her after the last time they met in person. He revealed that “everything has changed for me” and shared his plans to finally quit his bachelor lifestyle.
“I don’t want to live that kind of life anymore,” he admitted to his friend Mete, who asked him how many women he had been with since he met her.
“Probably about 2,500,” Sarper replied and told the cameras. “I have dated many, many women in the past. Most of them are one-night stands, I’ve danced more than 600 bachelorette parties [and] half the brides wanted to sleep with me.”
