I believe some female cast members only joined the recent season of90 Day: The Last Resortto prove their partners wrong. I liked the concept oftroubled couples from the franchise seeking marriage counseling to improve their relationships. In season 1,Yara Zaya and Jovi Dufrenworked through their communication issues and are now happier than ever. Similarly, therapy helped some other couples realize they were better off without each other. Molly Hopkins broke up with her boyfriend, Kelly Brown, and they moved on with their lives.
In December 2024, the network premiered90 Day: The Last Resortseason 2, with some of the most popular couples from the franchise seeking professional help to improve their relationships.Jasmine Pineda and Gino Palazzolo were looking for a solution to their intimacy issues, while Sophie Sierra and Rob Warne wanted to determine the future of their marriage and address their trust issues. Julia Trubkina and Brandon Gibbs needed assistance in compromising and reaching a mutual decision about their plans for a baby. Additionally, Stacey Silva joined the season to address Florian Sukaj’s flirtatious behavior.
Jasmine Entered The Resort With Matt On Her Mind
I believe therapy is beneficial for many90 Day Fiancécouples in addressing their issues, and I appreciate it when therapists help them reconcile. However, this season left me feeling unsatisfied because I suspect some female cast members had ulterior motives for joining. Jasminehad been dealing with intimacy issues with Ginofrom the beginning of their relationship. Despite these issues, she married him, giving the impression that she truly wanted to be with Gino. However, shortly after starting therapy, she unexpectedly suggested theidea of an open marriage, revealing that she had been considering it for some time.
Not long after, she pressured Gino to agree to involve Matt Branis in their open marriage. I was shocked to see her push Gino without giving him time to process this new arrangement.
I was convinced she had only joined the season to paint herself as a victim whenshe lost her temper with Rob, who suggested they involve another man besides Matt in their open marriage. In my opinion, Jasmine didn’t participate in therapy to address her issues with Gino; instead, shequickly advanced her relationship with Matt, who had already become her confidant.
Ariela Weinberg Just Wanted To Prove Biniyam Shibre Wrong
I’m a fan of Ariela Weinberg, but I believe that her participation in the season wasn’t actually to resolve her issues with Biniyam Shibre.
It seemed likeshe was hurt by her husband and wanted to show his wrongdoing to her co-stars as well as the viewers. Unfortunately, things didn’t go as she had hoped. She struggled to connect with her female co-stars, and they didn’t support her when she criticized Biniyam. I found it odd how Ariela continuouslypushed Biniyam to admit to cheatingon her instead of focusing on other concerns.
Time and time again, I had the impression Ariela was more interested in emphasizing her efforts to salvage her relationship, implying Biniyam wasn’t putting in the same level of dedication. She seemed intent onpainting Biniyam as an unfaithful husband who caused her pain rather than working on forgivenessand moving forward. Opting not to share a room with Biniyam indicated to me that Ariela had no intention of leaving the resort as a reconciled couple. Even during the Tell All, Ariela appeared more relieved than heartbroken when Biniyam confessed he cheated on her.
Sophie Sierra Kept Changing Her Narrative
Sophie Hooked Up With Rob After Their Breakup
I’m not a fan of Rob, but I must mention that Sophie wasn’t a great partner either. When she moved to the United States, she knew Rob had cheated on her by interacting with other women online. Despite his infidelity, she chose to marry him. Iwould have respected her more if she had ended the relationship before getting married. However, she moved out of their house shortly after the wedding and had an on-again, off-again relationship with him for two years. During90 Day: The Last Resortseason 2 Tell All, she accused Rob of being abusive.
I’m confused by Sophie’s claim that Rob is abusive while also admitting to hooking up with him.
She had sex with Rob after their breakup at the recommitment ceremony, which made me think he might not have been a terrible husband. Sophie’s story changing makes me wonder if she joined the show toportray Rob as unsupportive and unfaithful to get more love and supportfrom fans and co-stars. I’m not excusing Rob’s behavior, but it seems like Sophie may have had a hidden agenda for appearing on the show with him.
Julia Trubkina Simply Wanted To Bring Her Parents To The US
Julia Displayed A Selfish Attitude Towards Brandon
I have been a fan of Julia and Brandon since their first season. Despite their noticeable personality differences, they have managed to make their relationship work and are still together. However, I wasdisappointed by Julia’s selfish behaviorin90 Day: The Last Resortseason 2. She didn’t appear remorseful while admitting to cheating on Brandon. Julia even mentioned that she only confessed to cheating because she no longer wanted to feel guilty. I was impressed with how Brandon handled the situation and forgave Julia.
Julia consistently refused to seek a second opinion from American doctors regarding her fertility issues. However, I was pleased when she finally agreed to do so. Unfortunately, my support for Julia waned when shegave Brandon an ultimatum to help her bring her parents to the United States. I believe she only joined the season solely to pressure Brandon to assist with her parents' visa application. Although she claims therapy was an educational experience, her ultimatum to her husband led me to believe she was playing her own selfish game on90 Day: The Last Resort.
90 Day: The Last Resortairs Mondays at 8 p.m. EDT on TLC.
