The tea was hot on Monday night’s 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way Tell All.
From secret audio recordings to one ex-wife’s ongoing access to her ex’s DMs, receipts were mined for the sake of crowning a bad guy in each relationship. However, the cast remained torn on who, if anyone, was the season’s №1 villain.
Exes Kirsten and Julio and Daniele and Yohan faced off as remaining couples Kenny and Armando, Kimberly and TJ and Holly and Wayne questioned their futures.
Here’s what happened in each relationship — and where it leaves them.
Julio and Kirsten
As promised in last week’s episode, Julio brought an audio recording of Kirsten’s alleged infidelities. That said, it didn’t actually prove she’d cheated. In the tape, Kirsten said she understood she “messed up” after Julio was upset about her alleged friendship with another man.
“I have never had a woman hurt me as much as you did. I was in love with you I literally thought I was going to marry you. And this whole time you were talking to a whole another f — -ing man,” Julio said to Kirsten, who appeared virtually.
When Kirsten claimed there was no relationship — just an ongoing friendship with the man, he rebutted that “cheating is not just like the physical sex.”
Then, it was Kirsten’s turn to share her own side. She cried as she said Julio is currently in a relationship with a woman he met while they were together. “I saw they’re literally — they’re on dates together and on vacations,” she said tearfully. “So that’s literally the real ways why he broke up because he found somebody else and now he’s like blaming me.”
Julio denied the relationship began before he split from Kirsten, but did admit to meeting the woman at a wedding during his relationship with Kirsten.
Kenny and Armando
There’s still no baby for Kenny and Armando, at least not yet.
The couple’s move to Mexico City, and their surrogacy journey, were featured on the season. However, they’ve found a major roadblock.
“We picked an egg donor and she went through the whole process, and the day she’s supposed to come in, she ghosted the clinic,” Kenny explained. “And never showed up, Never did anything. So we had to go through the whole process again.”
The entire process — which was on hold for some time — ended up costing $74,000.
There was some good news, though. The couple now has seven viable embryos ready for their surrogate. The only thing they had yet to figure out was how many to implant at once. Armando was hoping to try for two, but Kenny, who has triplets, wasn’t so sure he was ready for multiples should both embryos take.
Daniele and Yohan
There was no hope for Daniele and Yohan to salvage their marriage.
Though she met for dinner with him and his family just days before the tell-all special (“I do it because his family is important to me, because I want to make sure that he’s OK and he has what he needs,” she said), she was still keeping tabs on his alleged mistresses and the women he continued to bring home after they got married.
Daniele said she couldn’t completely keep track of how many women Yohan has cheated with, explaining, “ I have a lot of screenshots but probably close to, like, 50 or 60.”
Daniele told the group she has unrestricted access to all of Yohan’s social media accounts because she was the one who made the passwords. And she was using that access to build a case against Yohan — unbeknownst to him.
“He wanted cash from every one of these women that he reached out to because he was collecting money. Don’t ask me where it is because the fact that he says that he paid for everything is straight comedy,” she said.
She added, “He has multiple women that he’s in a relationship with now that think that they’re the only one.”
Yohan denied it all and claimed Daniele may have paid the women off to lie about him. “I don’t know if she paid them or what, and now she wants to put all that out there because she was the one who messed things up,” he said in Spanish, translated to English. “Now she wants to clear her name and act like a saint.”
There was also an ongoing question over whether Yohan ever invited other women to their apartment. He denied that too, but Daniele pointed to the fact some of their pool floats had moved as proof that a guest she didn’t know about had been to their home.
Kimberly and TJ
Instead of a confrontation between Kimberly and her husband, the tell-all had a conversation between Kimberly and her brother-in-law Yash.
Replaying a blowout argument with TJ, Kimberly stood by her behavior. “I think I handled myself well. I set my boundaries clearly,” she said. “I don’t think I disrespected them in any way.”
The others didn’t necessarily agree with Kimberly, who has a history of being verbally combative (not to mention shrieking in anger).
TJ still felt trapped between his wife and his family, explaining, “It’s completely more stress for me right now. So what happens whenever you can’t take either side? I can’t go for Yash. I can’t go for Kim either. I have to balance the whole situation.”
When Yash was asked if Kimberly had been a “good wife,” he was honest: “I have opinions about Kimberly, but my brother decide[d] and Kimberly will decide this, and that’s not my part. My part is, like, she should not clash with anyone — and at least she should not clash with me.”
Yash was committed learning to overcome the disagreements and accept Kimberly. When asked if he “likes Kimberly being” in the family he responded, “Yes. We are family and ultimately we have to — we have to heal everything.”
Holly and Wayne
In the ever-confusing saga of Holly and Wayne’s marriage, even they weren’t sure if it was truly over.
Four months after Holly moved back to America, the pair had barely spoken in two or three weeks before the tell-all taping.
“I flew back here because my mom was really sick and I’d racked up some credit card debt in South Africa,” Holly explained. “So I knew that if I went back to South Africa I couldn’t get a job. So I knew if I stayed here I could just pay it off really quick.”
She admitted she didn’t have any plans to return — not helped by Wayne’s emotional distance. He claimed it was simply that his “phone kept on dying,” but his 90 Day costars didn’t buy that excuse for a second.
Holly remembered how difficult it was for her to live abroad. “I’m generally a very happy person, and I’ve never struggled with depression. And when everything came crashing down, I was depressed. He didn’t like me depressed,” she said. “He liked the way I used to be, and he just couldn’t understand why I was depressed.”
She added, “You didn’t like it because I wasn’t all fun and exciting anymore because I was like struggling with everything.”
Wayne responded when asked if he felt like Holly had “abandoned” their marriage. “Yes, I do,” he said.
“It’s been, like, five months that you haven’t come,” he continued. “I said you must — I’ll buy your ticket to come home. I’m living without my wife, you know?”
But Holly was firm that Wayne should make good on his promise to visit her in America. To that he countered, “America is just not for me. I’m just too used to South Africa.”
Wayne was also honest about how Holly’s volatile personality had affected him. “Holly’s a very soft, emotional person and I’ve really tried to be there for her,” he said. “But it’s a bit draining for me because she’s a very emotional person and it’s hard to deal with that sometimes.”
He admitted that their relationship had changed — and not for the positive: “I don’t feel that — even from her side — that there’s the connection there used to be.”
