90 Day Fiance Fans Question Relationship

Fans of the franchise are doubtful of their relationship and if it will last.

  • “I think he hasn’t given up on Douglas. Except Douglas is dead and he seems to be clinging to that. I personally think they should let each other go because they both aren’t getting what they want. Shawn is holding her back. Alliya can’t give Shawn what he wants.”
  • “Also why did she accept? I think she can do better. SO much better. But not 5 minutes after she accepted she told her friend she didn’t like his behavior and open relationship etc. Don’t you figure that out before accepting?”
  • “The only thing I can think of (other than being on a TV show) is maybe the power dynamic? He seems to enjoy the extreme age gap because he clearly has all the power in the relationship. He seems to enjoy spoiling Alliya, almost like a child 🤮”
  • “Remember when Shawn said he liked the quiet, meek personality better? That was pretty telling.”

Fans are also skeptical of their 36-year age gap.
