90 Day Fiance: Two Sneak Peeks, Two HUGE Fights
This week’s 90 Day Fiance news has been dominated by Larissa’s arrest as we’ve learned more and more about what happened.
But now we have not one but two new sneak peeks for this weekend’s episode.
Which two couples had huge fights? Take a look:
First, let’s start with Jonathan and Fernanda.
After Fernanda exits the bathroom to find Jonathan seemingly dancing with another woman, she goes ballistic.
She confronts them (that’s a bit of an understatement) and storms out.
Jonathan is clearly, visibly intoxicated but upset that she’s upset. She demands the keys to the car.
“Do you want to get married with me?” Fernanda asks.
His behavior has, just as when she found another woman’s thong in his apartment, made her second-guess everything.
Jonathan tries to address her doubts and insecurities.
“Of course I do,” he insists, assuring her that he wants to marry her.
We’re not shaming anyone for drinking, and we don’t doubt his sincerety, but he would have sounded more convincing if he’d been less under the influence.
“Well show me!” Fernanda suggests. “Because I don’t feel that!”
Fernanda is clearly feeling hurt and angry and cannot help but wonder, once again, if she uprooted her entire life for nothing.
Jonathan is clearly distressed, but in his current state, isn’t exactly helping his case.
“She’s not even my type,” he protests.
He means to sound sweet, but it totally misses the point. And Fernanda wants to leave — but she’s not ready to talk about it.
Jonathan shares with the 90 Day Fiance cameras that this is caused by Fernanda’s immaturity.
He admits that this sort of thing is exactly what they had warned him about.
He, too, is beginning to second guess their plans to marry.
Real talk: Fernanda is 19 years old. Jonathan is in his early 30s.
Of course there is a maturity gap. They’re both adults, but they’re at different points in their lives.
Did Fernanda overreact? Yes. That’s not super surprising coming from a teenager.
That said, the two of them met in a club in Maxico in the first place.
Maybe Jonathan should be more sensitive of his fiancee’s feelings and take a proactive approach to addressing her insecurities.
That said, the nice thing about these two is that neither of them is the bad guy.
Kalani and Asuelu’s engagement is complicated by a baby and by Kalani’s family.
Their fight, however, comes from a place of misunderstanding about baby safety.
Maybe it’s a cultural difference, as Kalani suggests, or maybe Asuelu is just newer to being a parent.
But their precious baby begins crying while Kalani is driving.
(Also she’s eating cheetos with her hands while she drives which makes me recoil; I use chopsticks for those)
Asuelu responds by wanting to comfort the baby, who is clearly in distress, but he does it in the wrong way.
Asuelu removes their baby from the car seat.
Car seats for babies are not optional or suggestions. Babies are small and delicate.
If you’re going to have a baby hurtling along at 80 miles per hour, neither a seatbelt nor a parent’s arms are sufficient protection.
Kalani tells him this — actually, she yells this at him. All the time, their baby is crying.
Kalani is eventually able to pull over, still very frustrated with Asuelu.
Asuelu says that he didn’t know about that, and feels hurt that Kalani was less than gentle about educating him on it.
Once again, there’s no real bad guy here — but it looks like Asuelu needs ot learn some more if he’s serious about being a father.

90 Day Fiance: Most Shocking Scandals Exposed!
90 Day Fiance is a hit reality show for a reason — and part of that is that it attracts some intriguing characters.
A lot of them are just people who are deeply in love. Some are lovestruck fools.
Then there are the gold-diggers, the people who just want US residency, the liars, and the Americans who are looking for a mail-order spouse.
But some of these people are truly scandalous.
There are revenge porn accusations, arrests, and some scammers so sleazy that they"ll make your hair stand on end.
Here are the biggest scandals that 90 Day Fiance has to offer … so far.
1. Let’s start with Larissa’s arrest
2. The two had a huge fight
3. Colt tried to diffuse things, and that’s when things got worse
4. And then there’s Angela
5. And speaking of Angela Deem’s daughter …
6. And then there’s Jorge Nava
Larissa from 90 Day Fiance: See Her Mug Shot, Read New Arrest Details
Larissa Dos Santos Lima may have recently called herself a survivor on Instagram, but the Las Vegas Police Department had a different label for this 90 Day Fiance star over the weekend:
Abuser.
As previously reported, the TLC reality star was arrested a few days ago on a charge of domestic battery.
New details (and Larissa’s mug shot!) regarding the incident have now emerged on the Internet.
“On Nov. 10, 2018, at approximately 1:15 p.m., officers were dispatched to a family disturbance at a residence in Northwest Las Vegas,” reads a statement by Las Vegas Police Officer Larry Hadfield.
This statement was obtained by In Touch Weekly and it continues:
“Two people were contacted at the home who were arguing.
“At the conclusion of the investigation, it was determined that Dos Santos had committed Battery Domestic Violence on her husband and transported to the Clark County Detention Center.”
Specifically, Larissa was arrested and detained on one count of misdemeanor domestic battery last Saturday.
She freaked fans out and caused major concerns when she locked herself in a bathroom, added her phone number to her Instagram bio and wrote on social media:
HELP ME …HE TURNED OFF HIDE MY PHONE HELP ME HE WANTS TO CALL THE POLICE HELP ME.
Larissa and her fiance, Colt, it should be noted, met online and are featured on this very season of 90 Day Fiance.
You can tune in each week to see their unusual relationship play out.
According to Larissa, her fight with Colt took place because he told his girlfriend NOT to share any photos of him on her Instagram account.
He said the status of their relationship had to remain a mystery, for the sake of the show.
She then went on to allege that Colt caused some damage in their home the two bickered over this demand — and she also claims that, at some point during their fight, he took her phone away.
That’s when she posted the above plea for help.
After posting a $ 1,000 bond, Larissa went back on Instagram in order to assure supporters that she was fine.
“Hello everyone. Thank you for the support and love. I am safe and resting,” she wrote, adding:
The past 48 hours have been the most difficult in my life. But reading the messages from all of you has made me smile. God bless and thank you. I’ll update soon.”
But, wait, is she still with Colt?
Yes.
“We are together and strong. We just choose [to not] expose it,” Larissa added.
Colt, meanwhile, has also responded to questions and stories about Larissa’s arrest, as well as his role in the incident.
He thinks people on the World Wide Web should stop playing amateur detective and leave the couple alone, basically.
“Self proclaimed internet sleuths who think they are Woodward and Bernstein,” he wrote late Monday on Instagram.
“They are simply people that spread misinformation, lies, and chaos to make themselves look important. They are nothing and will never be relevant.”
We don’t know what actually transpired between Colt and Larissa, of course, but we can say this much:
When you are accused of being at the center of a domestic battery confrontation… you may be best served NOT to come across as hostile in your response to it.

90 Day Fiance: Colt and Larissa Fight Leads to Domestic Battery Arrest
Over the weekend, 90 Day Fiance star Larissa Dos Santos Lima was arrested for domestic battery against her husband, Colt.
After Larissa"s panicked messages to fans, sent while locked in her bathroom, many expected that it would be Colt who was arrested.
Now that we"ve heard both sides of the story, we understand a little more of how this arrest went down, and what led to it.
Also, this is not Larissa"s first arrest in the last five months.
It sounds pretty toxic, folks.
And parts of this sound a little terrifying.
Beware that there are, obviously, some 90 Day Fiance spoilers here.
1. Colt and Larissa Had a Huge Fight
2. Larissa locked herself in a bathroom
3. She also seemed afraid that he would call the police
4. it started with Larissa being upset
5. Colt came home with flowers
6. Larissa accuses Colt
Larissa Dos Santos Lima, 90 Day Fiance Star, Arrested for Domestic Battery
Larissa Dos Santos Lima, who plays a major role on this season of 90 Day Fiance, was arrested for domestic battery in Las Vegas on Saturday, November 10.
Scroll down to learn more about what transpired…
Larissa stars opposite Colt Johnson on the controversial TLC series.
According to Clark County inmate records, she was originally being held on $ 3,000 bail following her arrest, although her court records have been updated to reflect a $ 2,000 reduction.
We can also confirm that she’s scheduled to have a 72-hour hearing on Tuesday morning.
While details are still coming in, Larissa changed her Instagram handle to @helpmeimwithoutphone shortly before the incident went down…
… and also shared a number of disturbing messages on Saturday.
“HELP ME …HE TURNED OFF HIDE MY PHONE HELP ME HE WANTS TO CALL THE POLICE HELP ME,” she wrote at one point, including her own phone number on her online biography.
In a series of since-deleted Instagram Story messages, meanwhile, Colt allegedly told his followers:
“Larissa was arrested this afternoon. She suffers from high anxiety and several depression. She over reacted to problems that do not exist.”
Very weird and sort of scary, right?
Colt went on to explain that he “proceeded to deactivate her phone to try to defuse the situation,” but that their disagreement “escalated and matters became worse” and added:
“She felt this action was a threat towards her and tried to reach out for help.
“Not long after her cry was posted, the police came and knocked down the front door. They drew their guns at me and handcuffed me.”
Larissa hails from Brazil and met Colt via social media.
The two met up in Mexico and Colt later proposed after just a few days together.
According to court records obtained by E! News, this is Larissa’s second arrest for domestic violence, although charges from earlier this year were dropped.
Revealing that he and Larissa are married, Colt continued over the weekend:
“The police interviewed us but not long after they decided to arrest Larissa. No one was hurt and I did not press charges against my wife.
“However it is policy in the state of Nevada that since we are in a domestic partnership, someone had to be arrested.”
We’ll have plenty more on this story as more news breaks.
For now, it may simply raise questions about a show based on two people who have just met and decided to get married, mostly so one of them can remain in the United States.
“The couples must marry before the visas expire in 90 days, or else the visitors have to immediately return to their countries,” reads the official TLC description.
Is this really something around which we ought to build an entire program?
Does it not increase the possibility that something such as this arrest can take place, as one person’s future is based on making a marriage work with, basically, a complete stranger?
Just sounds like a recipe for disaster.

90 Day Fiance Star Ashley Was Kidnapped at 19
Ashley and Jay are one of this season’s new 90 Day Fiance couples, and so far they’ve been fun to watch.
Unfortunately, Ashley’s life has known real pain and real horror, as she took to social media to reveal.
When she was 19 years old, Ashley was kidnapped by a stranger.
Ashley Martson took to Instagram to share an important, personal story with her followers.
“As most of you know,” Ashley writes. “An old friend decided to send the tabloids a very personal story about me.”
“Yes,” Ashley continues. “When I was 19 I was kidnapped, raped, and almost killed by a stranger.”
That is absolutely horrific.
“Many outlets were reaching out to me for comment,” Ashley shares.
“I reached out to @johnyates327 who was also sent the story,” Ashley says. “And asked him to leak it first”
Ashley says that she knew that the report would come out anywya.
She then writes that she asked for it to be leaked “because I wasn’t sure how the other tabloids would portray me.”
That is a very fair concern.
“I knew he would post it with the with dignity and respect,” Ashley says. “With the understanding that this is a very sensitive subject.”
“People are disgusting,” Ashley says.
True.
“Sending this story to tabloids shows how s–tty people really are,” Ashley expresses.
“Everyone take it easy on @johnyates327,” she asks. “He has my permission.”
Ashley is known now for her sweet (if dramatic) romance with Jay.
We can understand her nervousness about fans reading up on her backstory.
Her case involves some truly horrific details.
In 2005, when she was 19, she was on her way to her job when a man, Sean Patrick Gallagher, tried to rob her.
He pressed a box cutter to her throat.
When she told him that she did not have any money, he forced her into the back of her own car and bound her hands with zip ties.
He then drove her car to a small athletic field where he terrorized and sexually assaulted her.
Police testified at Gallagher’s trial that he had bound her hands so tightly that they turned blue.
He never let her go — she had to escape.
Though Ashley was only 19 at the time, she mustered the incredible courage to fight back.
She struck him with her bag and used her own teeth to chew through the zip ties that bound her.
Gallagher was identified by DNA evidence.
It took the jury only 90 minutes to hand down the conviction.
Ashley was right to be nervous about how she would be portrayed and how she would be perceived.
Unfortunately, even after the dawn of #MeToo, too many women are second-guessed or even blamed after surviving harrowing attacks.
And now that Ashley has seen ugly responses from fans and viewers, she has to be on her guard about any stories about her.
(It wasn’t so long ago that a fan tried to portray her fiance, Jay, as some sort of sexual predator, using clearly fake texts to make it look like he’d flirted with a 16-year-old)
The world can be so unkind, even to people who have been through unspeakable experiences.

90 Day Fiance: Kalani Defends Sister, Father Against Viewer Backlash
Even though Larissa made Colt’s mom cry on this week’s 90 Day Fiance, she’s not the only target for the wrath of viewers.
Kalani’s sister and her father have both been the targets of intense fan criticism over how they treated Asuelu in the episode.
So Kalani took to social media to defend her family. She also took her social media private to block out the haters.
Kalani does not have time for haters who are coming after her family.
On this week’s episode, Asuelu met Kalani’s family and began his uphill battle towards being accepted.
It didn’t help that he took Kalani’s virginity and impregnated her while she was on vacation.
(That’s not a way to start things off on the right foot with someone’s deeply Mormon family, folks)
But Kalani’s sister also resented his sudden intrusion into the family — and the fact that he had cheated on Kalani.
Kalani’s dad had … other, more complicated concerns.
First, Kalani defended her sister, Kolini, after fans gave her a hard time for resenting baby Oliver’s dad.
“My sister WAS Oliver’s dad for his first five months,” Kalani writes on Instagram.
“She watched him when I had to go back to work for Asuelu’s papers,” she says.
“She bought all of the s–t I didn’t get from my baby shower,” she adds.
Kalani continues: “and let me skip rent/bills when I had to buy his plane tickets for his interviews and doctor’s appointments.”
That is one hell of a supportive sister — and a supportive aunt.
Kalani makes it clear that Asuelu deserved some of her sister’s ire.
“Asuelu wasn’t paid in coconuts, dumbasses,” Kalani says of her baby daddy’s job.
“He made $ 600 American a month,” she shares. “With no bills.”
“As a sister, if you know you’re throwing downtime and money to help your nephew,” she says.
Kalani continues: “and know that the father isn’t helping in ways that he could — YOU’D BE SALTY TOO!”
Yep.
As we mentioned, things were a little more complicated for Kalani’s father.
Her dad didn’t want her to be with a Samoan man, which sounds racist until you remember that he himself is Samoan.
“You know how I feel about you being with my kind of people,” he told her on 90 Day Fiance.
“It’s just the way I was born and raised,” he said. “It’s a fast life here and it’s a slow life there.”
That sounds like internalized racism — when people absorb prejudices about themselves — and fans were upset.
Kalani says that some of her statements about her dad wanting her to be with “white men” were taken out of context.
(We absolutely had to include this — both Asuelu and baby Oliver’s first Halloween!)
90 Day Fiance is absolutely no stranger to scenes in which things were taken out of context.
We don’t think that Kalani thinks that white men offer more stability than Samoan men.
We hope that her father doesn’t really feel that way.
It is totally understandable that Kalani opted to make her Instagram private after dealing with all of that backlash following this week’s episode.
We all might wish that her family had been a little more open to Asuelu, but that doesn’t make them monsters.

90 Day Fiance Sneak Peek: Fernanda Struggles to Trust Jonathan
Pro-tip for anyone moving in with a new significant other: you probably want to not still be holding on to an ex"s underwear.
That has of course been an issue on 90 Day Fiance, when Fernanda found Jonathan"s ex"s thong in his home.
In this sneak peek, we see that she"s still trying to decide whether or not she can trust him, with the awkward help of his friend.
So, Fernanda Flores had the misfortune of not only finding another woman"s thong, but having that be almost her first experience in Jonathan Rivera"s home.
This brought underlying doubts about everything — the move, the engagement, and their 13-year age gap (she"s 19, he"s 32) — to the surface.
As you can see in this video, one of Jonathan"s friends was there to lend some emotional support.
"It’s hard to talk with Jonathan’s friends about our problems," Fernanda admits.
"I feel, of course, more comfortable talking with my friends but I don’t have that option," she explains.
Fernanda is very aware that "If I told my friends and my family, they will be disappointed in Jonathan."
She realizes that she was nervous, and that finding Jonathan"s ex"s thong, which he"d forgotten in a drawer, seemed like her worst fears realized.
"It was terrible,” Fernanda admits.
At this point, speaking to Jonathan"s (thus far unnamed) friend, she begins to cry.
Jonathan"s friend gives her a hug and a literal shoulder on which to cry.
“When I came here," Fernanda laments. "I’m so excited and it made me feel stupid."
They"d met while he was on vacation, but ultimately she didn"t know much about him except what she had told him.
It sounds really romantic, but it can lead to doubts.
"I want to believe in him," Fernanda explains.
"But," she admits. "You think the worst."
"Of course she had some concerns," Jonathan"s friend, who is both kind and no-nonsense.
"If I had been in the country for the first time [and] I’m giving up everything to come here and marry someone," his friend says.
She continues: "and then the first day I get there I find a woman’s underwear, I would have lost it."
But, she says, it"s not a sign that he"s a cheater.
“This is typical Jonathan," she says. "No telling how long that’s been in there."
"He hasn’t thought about it," she explains. "He’s just a boy and he’s dumb."
Jonathan"s friend just explained at least one-third of all relationship problems.
(Seriously, can we get her to show up on 90 Day Fiance for other couples? Can that be a thing?)
It seems that the thong looked like a red flag, but also represented — as we mentioned — other concerns.
Hopefully, this talk with Jonathan"s friend (even if she"s not exactly a neutral party) helped to allay Fernanda"s fears.
It may have been awkward for her, especially when the reality of "my friend is going to marry a teenager" set in.
But everyone involved here is an adult. It looks like they met naturally and fell in love.
Fair warning, folks, we have a bit of a 90 Day Fiance spoiler for you.
If you find yourself rooting for Jonathan and Fernanda (I know that I have been), you"re in luck.
The two of them celebrated Halloween together this week. That"s not usually something you do when you break up.
And some reddit sleuths unearthed what appears to be evidence that these two got married back in May.
Sometimes, people make it work.
