Jenny & Sumit
We begin this 90 Day Fiance recap with Jenny screaming mid argument with Sumit. She is having problems with her visa that could all be solved if he would just finally marry her. Since he won’t she’s done and moving back to the US. If you missed the big blowup, it’s worth a watch. I’ve never seen Jenny so angry. Sumit tries to calm Jenny down but she is insistent she is going back to the US. Later they find out that there was some sort of computer error that sent her the bad news about her visa and she is fine.

Later they go to see a an immigration attorney hoping he has some way to keep Jenny there longer. The first thing he ask is for her to give up her American citizenship. She says she will never do that. The only other thing is basically if she becomes a Hari Krishna then she can have a permanent visa. I am not making this up. Jenny is willing to give it a try. This is hysterical. Next week she starts her Hari Krishna training.
Arilea & Biniyam
Ari has made the utterly disrespectful decision to invite her ex- husband to come stay with her and her new family in Ethiopia. They are going to pick him up from quarantine. Bini is upset that she is wearing a short dress and getting her nails done. She also isn’t wearing her wedding ring. Bini goes back to the house to get her wedding ring while she is at the nail salon. His feelings are really hurt, but Ari doesn’t seem to care.

Leandro, the ex husband arrives and it’s super awkward. Bini already wants to talk to him one on one about his intentions. Leandro tells the cameras basically that Bini will just have to deal it it. He’s going to be in Ari’s life forever. When he gets to hold the baby for the first time, Ari says, “You could have had a baby like this but you missed out. That baby is VERY white. Are we sure he is Bini’s? I wouldn’t put anything past this chick. Then Leandro gives them some gifts. Including bras and other inappropriate gifts for an ex to give a engaged woman. Leandro tells Bini not to worry is girlfriend bought them for her. Also, Bini wants to know why they broke up. She said she left to travel the world and never came back. Ari says she always thought they would eventually get back together. She cries about the way she broke up with Leandro.
Alina & Steven
Steven is leaving his job as a pest control guy to move to Turkey with his Russian girlfriend Alina. This is probably for the best because Steven is strongly against killing bugs. Alina is 20 and Steven isn’t much older. This is a bad idea for so many reasons. Alina is dropping out of college for this idiot. This whole episode feels familiar to me. I now remember I watched the Pillow Talk episode first. I wish I had not done that before recapping. Her mom is worried about the whole situation and is upset because the original plan was for Steven to come to stay with them. Alina’s family thinks that Mormons are a cult that steal peoples organs and sell them on the black market.

Alina’s friends come by to help her pack. They are not wild about her moving to Turkey with a strange Mormon kid from Utah either. Especially when they find out she isn’t going to have sex until they were married due to the Mormon religion. She’s going to be shocked to find out that Steven is in fact NOT a virgin. She’s only spent two weeks with Steven. Steven has also asked her previously if he can date other girls. I doubt there is a line of potential dates wrapped around the block. He friends want her to hire someone to try to seduce him to test his faithfulness.
The day before Steven is to leave for Turkey, he decided to come clean about not being a virgin on a facetime call? Why not do it there? Oh, wait! I was wrong. What he is telling her is that he booked them TWO APARTMENTS! WTF? She is not having that. He wants her to do this for like a month so that the bishop with agree to baptize them. She is pissed. Oh he tells production that he has had more than one sexual relationship before!
Evelin & Corey
Over in Ecuador, these two are finally going to get married. Maybe. Evelin, who never wanted to get married in the first place, now wants the most expensive wedding in all of Ecuador. I feel like the bride and the wedding planner are trying to rip off Corey. I can’t imagine a wedding in Ecuador costs $26-50K.
Armando & Kenny
I’m starting to feel like I have seen this entire episode and not just the Pillow Talk and then didn’t recap it or delete it. I hate watching things twice. Especially thing that are this long. Anyway, Kenny if finally trying to learn a few words of Spanish. Armando is super excited about his wedding. He and Hannah are making a vision board. He has over a hundred people to invite. He’s worried his parents won’t come. He’s not even sure his dad knows about the marriage.

The too love birds go to look at wedding venues and talk to a wedding planner. Armando wants huge fireworks at the wedding. They have two wedding planners and they are both gay! In Mexico! When talking with the wedding planners, Kenny says they are expecting 50 to 100 guests. However, Armando said a hundred previously, but now his list is up to 200! Kenny asks about vendors who might refuse to work with them due to the same sex marriage. The planners say that is a problem, but they can solve it.
Ellie & Victor
Ellie is one of the dumbest people ever on any of the franchises. And that is saying a lot. Ellie owns a profitable business in a first world could and plenty of friends who care about her. But she is going to just toss that aside to live on an island off the coast of Columbia with a guy who has already cheated on her and is currently living with another woman. She know this because the other, other woman reached out to her and told her not to come.

Ellie goes to Friendsgiving and tells her friends that she is actually making a permanent move to Colombia. They all have the same thoughts about this that I do. We finally find out that Victor survived the hurricane. Victor promises that the other woman is not even on the island anymore. Maybe she got washed away in the hurricane. lol. More likely, he is lying. OH WAIT! I forgot we were in flashback mode. The hurricane has not hit there yet! Oh my. At this point he thinks it will be a category two or three hurricane. So he still could be dead.
Next week we catch up to real time on the Category 5 hurricane. I can’t wait!
Sumit will never marry Jenny. He’s comfortable cohabitating and Jenny will have to get on board with this. I don’t believe she will ever leave.
Also I don’t understand why Elie had to give up her business. Couldn’t she continue to collect a check even if not directly involved?
Ari is still in love with Leandro. Their connection is deep. Bini should be worried.
Ari was needlessly cruel to Biny. She really doesn’t seem to have any feelings for him and she was trying her level best to make him jealous. I’m not sure she’s still in love with Leandro, but I think that, given her current circumstances in Ethiopia, she misses what they had together. I used to like her, but not so much anymore. Biny is right to be worried,
In the teaser for Sunday night’s full show, Jenny goes to the Krishna temple and learns the mantra with the prayer beads. She loved it: the serenity and peace she got from it. This should be interesting. I would imagine to get a Krishna visa, she will have to spend many many hours at the temple and elsewhere chanting and proving her seriousness. When will she have time for Sumit?
My biggest take always for the couples are,
Jenny threw a chair! She was pissed! Sumit won’t even respond when she talks about getting married. Will he never marry her?
A wedding in Ecuador cost 50K? No way! Besides their surf side bar what does Corey do for a living? This show? These 2 don’t fit together. Evilen has always had an agenda in this relationship. $$$
Leandro handing Ari the bras he bought for her was beyond inappropriate! Maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad if they had been wrapped and concealed. I could feel Bini’s growing anxiety.
Armando and Kenny getting married is so exciting! Kenny should let Armando have all the guest and the fireworks! Even with that I bet it won’t come near 50K!
Steven with a V is strange. Alina has no idea what she has gotten herself into. I think 2 apartments is truly the best thing for this couple.
Ellie and Victor? All I can say is she should never have sold her business so quickly. The young man could have kept the pizza joint running in her 90 day absence. This is a classic example of fools rush in!
Thank you for recapping, TT. Having a really bad day but wanted to acknowledge since I had mentioned that I hoped you would recap. ♥️
Ari in the f’n worst. I know ladies who get off on pitting men against each other and making them fight for attention/affection. Ugh selfish bitches. Biniyam needs to kick her ass to the curb and keep the baby with him. His family seems a stable and loving environment. Ari is a basketcase.
Sumit will never marry Jenny. She needs to leave and not go back. Let him come get you with a ring and paperwork, girl. Til then, get your cougar on and go find a different cub.
Thanks for recapping, TT. I don’t get to watch anymore, and I love coming here for the read and comments.
I’m starting to get the feeling that Jenny might want to stay in India with or without Sumit. This Hare Krishna thing should be very interesting. And you’re right; Sumit will never marry her. His mother fixed that perfectly. Someone that you love threatening suicide can be a real deal breaker.
I haven’t gotten caught up yet, but love to read your recaps. Thanks for recapping TT!
I’m with you guys – sumit will not marry Jenny. She needs to come home to her family.
Ari is totally still in love with her ex & I feel so bad for Bini.
Corey is being taken for a ride. There is no way a wedding costs $50k in Ecuador. And there is no way Evelyn will marry him. Another one that should come back home.
Ellie is just plain stupid to sell her business to move near a man still living with another woman! I mean love is crazy but that us just plain stupidity.
On a side note a family member has a 90 day fiancé. A few years ago I asked him if she was coming over on a k 1 visa think he was taken back I knew the name of the visa. It’s not like years ago but TLC still teaches us something once in awhile! I think they already married (she’s been here maybe 5 moths) but the wedding is the end of this month. Should be interesting she thought she will be living the life of a kardashian meanwhile they will be living with mom & dad in the suburbs. I already have the popcorn.
Ellie’s boyfriend, according to him, is no longer living with the other woman, who apparently has left the island. Not sure I believe that last part, but I do believe he is no longer living with her, as of the show time, not current time.
At this point the only couple I can root for is Kenny and Armando, and honestly Kenny is just slightly creepy. Jenny and Ellie are both dumb as rocks, Ari is disrespectful at. Steven is super strange.
Do you think Steven is on the autism spectrum? That’s what I suspect.
I agree with every single thing above. Kenny, learn spanish. What else are u doing??? I can’t stand ari. Spoiled entitled white people shit! Binis sisters see right thru her! Why aren’t more people commenting? This show is great
First of all thanks to everyone for commenting. I would just watch this show on my own (and have if no one wants to watch with me. It is a very long show. )
As for Kenny trying to learn Spanish… here is something no one ever teaches you. I can ask for directions or whatever when in Paris in French. They totally understand what I need to know even is I sound ridiculous. THEY UNDERSTAND what I want to know, but most of the time they answer in French and I have no idea what THEY are saying. ON VERY rare occaision they answer me in English.
My point, And I do have one, is that it is WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY harder to understand the answer no matter how well you can ask the proper question.
That said, he need to at least be able to comprehend some thing.
That’s a really good point. One of the first phrases I remember being taught waaaayyy back in high school French class was Parlez-vous plus lentement, s’il vous plait… speak more slowly, please!! Having learned other languages since, that tip followed me. Hi, where’s the bathroom, where’s the embassy, speak slower please hehe
Good point. And thank you for bringing back happy memories of traveling to Switzerland with my parents and cousin. She was so proud of herself for remembering how to say train in French and then was cracking up when the policeman answered in French and she realized she should have just asked where the train was. They have 4 national languages, along with many knowing English, so you always have to lead with the language you hope to use. Amazingly beautiful country. I have to admit that I wasn’t excited to go, but I was so wrong. They have entire chocolate bar aisles in the grocery store like we have chip aisles. And you can eat a whole one every day and not feel bad because you walk so much while sightseeing. Their train system is great and easy to understand. But it’s really the scenery with the mountains and wildflowers that is the best reason to go.
I spent two years working with people whose first language was Spanish and spoke it most of the time. I actually had a speech disability as a young child so learning how to speak languages is super difficult. That being said just being an active listener and knowing the situation I was able to understand a lot of Spanish, couldn’t speak it but I could grasp what people were saying. I think if you really immerse yourself in the population you can pick it up instead of just studying it.
Thank you for recapping. I love this show but don’t have time to watch.
I am lost… so is Alina a virgin? I know some couples who were sexually active in previous relationships will decide not to have sex in a current relationship until after marriage which is strange I know but yeah. Also it sounds like Steven asking about him dating outside of that relationship is really him asking about potential sister wives…
Thanks so much for recapping! When I didn’t see the recap last Monday I thought you had stopped for this show so was so happy to see it. For some reason, I have gotten burnt out from almost all of the Bravo shows but still really like the 90 Day ones. I agree with you and the other commenters here. Not only is it hard to believe that any wedding in Ecuador would cost that much much less in that teeny village that they are in! And then Evelyn making that snarky comment that he should have been putting money aside for the wedding was over the top. How was he was supposed to be doing that when their little bar is shut down due to Covid. And how much can that bar make anyway. And for every dollar Corey spends for the wedding is a dollar Corey & Evelyn will not have to fund their lifestyle after the wedding.
And really while I get having a favorite bra, isn’t that something that you have your Mom go buy for you and send to you and not an ex-husband? It appears her parents are funding everything else for her. And I thought her comment on her thinking she would always get back somehow with her ex-husband but then found herself pregnant by Bini was telling.
Thanks again for the recap!
