Luis Mendez Fires Back at Ex Molly Hopkins: She Used Me, Too!!

Luis Mendez’s 90 Day Fiance marriage may not have worked out, but the dude has remarried just months after his divorce.

His ex Molly Hopkins says this is proof that he was just using her.

Now, Luis is hitting back — saying that she was using him, too.

Speaking to Us Weekly, Luis Mendez fired back after his ex-wife claimed that he was just using her to get tot he United States.

“You know something?” Luis begins his statement.

You can tell from his phrasing that he is feeling a little hot under the collar about the accusation.

He says that it was Molly who was using him.

“[Molly] only took me here to get fame for her business,” Luis claims.

Molly has a lingerie business and has eagerly promoted it on social media during her time on 90 Day Fiance.

Luis claims that their marriage was never about him.

“She never wanted to give me the opportunity to get my papers,” Luis accuses.

Luis then repeats himself for emphasis: “Never.”

Interestingly, that is not the same thing as a denial that he just wanted to come to America.

Luis Mendez remarried in September, and made headlines this month when the world learned of it.

He has not revealed the name of his new bride, but has gushed about how in love he is with her.

His divorce from Molly was finalized on May 4 of this year.

Some may find it suspicious that he did not immediately defend himself by saying that he married Molly because he was “in love.”

Keep in mind that English is a second language for him, and also that his romance with Molly ended very poorly.

It’s understandable that feelings that she tried to sabotage his status in America would come to mind.

Molly spoke out about Luis’ marriage just one day earlier.

“I feel it clearly shows he was possibly using me and my finances to get here,” Molly accused.

She feels that this is obvious “because our divorce was final in May.”

“So he either already knew [his new wife] and had a plan all along and I’m a fool,” Molly suspects.

“Or we are both fools if she doesn’t know him,” Molly said.

Molly concluded: “Because I met Jeykll in the Dominican [Republic] and got Hyde here, or vice versa. Either way, may it work out because I’m glad he’s gone.”

(As we said at the time, Hyde is always the bad one)

(Yes, this is an actual photo that Luis and Molly took during their relationship)

It may be that Molly and Luis had true feelings for each other, once upon a time.

Then, when it didn’t work out, those feelings of affection turned to resentment and bitterness.

It is also possible that they were both using each other from the start.

Molly got a hot, younger husband and a measure of reality television fame to promote her business.

And Luis, well, he got to come to America.

It’s difficult to tell what went into their marriage to begin with.

Through the fog of anger that led to their divorce, it’s possible that even Molly and Luis themselves are no longer sure of how they used to feel.

It does seem safe to say that they’re both happy to be out of this toxic relationship.

Maybe Luis’ new marriage will work out better than his old one.

Molly Hopkins: Luis Getting Remarried is Proof He Was USING ME!

Former 90 Day Fiance couple Molly and Luis are over. So over, in fact, that one of them has already moved on.

Luis got married just a few months after their divorce, and now Molly is speaking out.

She says that this marriage is proof that he was just using her to get into America.

Molly Hopkins spoke to Us Weekly and says that Luis Mendez’s wedding is evidence that he is no good.

“I feel it clearly shows he was possibly using me and my finances to get here,” Molly says.

“Because,” she reasons. “Our divorce was final in May.”

Their divorce was May 4. Luis then got married in September, just four months later.

“So he either already knew her and had a plan all along and I’m a fool,” Molly explains.

“Or,” Molly says. “We are both fools if she doesn’t know him.”

That makes sense. It does seem like either Luis had this woman on the side all along, or has simply moved on.

Molly warns that Luis is not to be trusted “because I met Jekyll in the Dominican [Republic] and got Hyde here, or vice versa.”

(For the record, Hyde is generally the bad guy)

“Either way,” Molly wishes. “May it work out.”

She explains that she gives this union her blessing “because I’m glad he’s gone.”

As we previously reported, Luis gushed about his new bride.

“I love this girl so much,” he shared. “She’s amazing.”

Luis has yet to reveal his new wife’s identity.

“The most amazing part was meeting her,” he raved. “Because she changed all life to happiness.”

He says that he and Molly “have no contact.”

Despite the contentiousness of their relationship, Luis doesn’t seem to outwardly harbor any ill will towards his ex.

“I just want to be happy,” Luis claimed.

That said, he wants to keep his distance.

If Molly has a response to his marriage, he said, “I don’t want to know anything about it.”

“But,” Luis continued. “If she wants to congratulate me, it’s OK.”

Before speaking out, Molly did go on Instagram live and acknowledge that Luis had gotten married.

“Oh yeah, for all of you who care,” Molly said. “I totally got used, but it’s all good

“Yeah, he’s married to someone else,” she acknowledged. “She looks older than me, from the Dominican Republic.”

“So all the people who thought I was crazy, his situation was pretty lovely,” Molly said of their erstwhile relationship.

“I mean, we were together for two years, so it’s all good,” Molly concluded. “Oh God, it doesn’t hurt at all. I’m good. I’m so good.”

At one point, it appeared that Luis was accusing Molly of abusing him during their marriage.

Domestic violence is extremely serious.

Even before that, a lot of people were convinced that Molly was no angel — but that Luis was just trying to use her.

Some would say that two bad apples deserve each other.

We would say that the entire world is better off with one fewer toxic relationship.

Luis Mendez is Married Again; See How Molly Hopkins Reacts!

After a tumultuous relationship, 90 Day Fiance stars Luis Mendez and Molly Hopkins got a divorce earlier this year.

Now, wedding photos have surfaced and Luis has confirmed that he has remarried.

Molly also saw those photos, and she has a lot to say about it.

Earlier this year, Luis Mendez and Molly Hopkins finalized their divorce.

It was May 4, in fact — Star Wars Day.

Now, just over five months later, Luis has not only moved on — he has gotten married.

No, he didn’t get back with Molly.

Yes, Luis has confirmed that he tied the knot (again).

And also yes, there are photos, courtesy of the Instagram account @90dayfiance_.

Luis spoke to In Touch to confirm things.

“Yes, I did get married,” Luis affirms.

“That was my wedding [on] Sept. 19,” he says.

There, he is referring to some earlier and much vaguer photos of him wearing a tux at what people had assumed was a friend’s wedding.

“I love this girl so much,” Luis gushes. “She is so amazing.”

That is so sweet!

So, what does Molly Hopkins, his very recent ex-wife, think of all of this?

“I have no contact with her,” Luis says.

Luis explains: “I just want to be happy.”

Where Molly is concerned, he says: “I don’t want to know nothing about it.”

“But if she wants to congratulate me,” Luis adds. “It’s okay.”

Molly did address Luis’ marriage on Instagram Live. We don’t know that we’d call her message congratulatory, however.

“Oh yeah,” Molly says. “For all of you who care or who wanted to talk junk about me, um, yeah I totally got used, but it’s all good.”

“Luis got married to a Dominican lady in Jersey, the best I could tell,” Molly explains.

“I saw pictures,” Molly says. “So yeah, he’s married to someone else.”

And Molly, who recently flaunted her weight loss on social media, doesn’t have a high opinion of this new union.

“Oh yeah, he totally married someone,” Molly says. “She looks older than me — from the Dominican [Republic].”

“I just saw the pictures,” Molly continues. “So for all you people that thought that I was crazy…”

“His situation was pretty lovely,” Molly claims. “I mean, we were together for two years, so it’s all good.”

“I know, I just — I feel like I need to redeem myself,” she explains. “Because a lot of people talked so much s–t about me, and I’m not with it.”

Molly then concludes: “But, hey, it’s all good!”

A lot of celebrities like to assure fans that things are all good when reality is otherwise.

We can only hope that Luis’ current marriage is less problematic than his last one.

90 Day Fiance fans were immediately suspicious over the age difference between Molly and Luis.

Some feared that he intended to exploit her for a Green Card.

The actual marriage turned out to be worse than that, and there was even a video that may have shown Molly abusing Luis.

Domestic violence, or even the implication or accusation of it, is absolutely never okay.

We should note that, even if Luis’ new bride is an American citizen, Luis would still have to return to the Dominican Republic and reapply for a K-1 visa.

However, there were suggestions on Instagram earlier this summer that Luis had returned home.

At the time, 90 Day Fiance fans assumed that Luis had been deported. He had been staying with family in New Jersey.

But now, that July visit might be explained if he went back for a couple of weeks in order to prepare for a new marriage.

We do not know enough to confirm that. All that we know for sure is that this looks like one hell of a rebound.

Molly Roloff Actually Visits Family Farm, Makes Amy One Happy Mama

Molly Roloff may not be a cast member on Little People, Big World.

But that doesn’t mean she isn’t a very welcome member of her own family.

Unlike her brother, Jacob, who quit the aforementioned TLC series last summer in a major huff, Molly has never made any grand statements about the show being fake or phony or silly in any way.

Nope.

She’s simply chosen to live a more private life, one that has taken her away from her family farm and one that includes a very normal and content existence with husband Joel.

Like we said before, however, Molly is on great terms with her parents despite having removed herself from their everyday lives and their most profitable source of income.

And that relationship was on full display this past weekend.

In honor of the beginning of pumpkin season at Roloff Farms, Molly and Joel drove on down and supported their loved ones.

They posed for a photo with the entire family, and they also posed for a photo with just Amy, as you can see above.

“I was so so excited that Molly and Joel were able to drive down for opening weekend of pumpkin season at Roloff Farms Pumpkin Patch,” Amy wrote as a caption to the two images above.

She added:

“It was wonderful to see them. This mom was happy.”

And below is the snapshot that has been making the Internet rounds, with nearly every single Roloff in the same place for a fun change:

As far as Molly goes, she recently hung with her dad as well and does try to come back to the farm when she can.

But she headed off college at Whitworth University and then met her now-husband shortly thereafter, Joel Silvius.

Together, the couple chose to stay in the area and they’re now permanently based in Spokane, Washington, which is about a six-hour drive from where Matt and Amy reside.

(Yes, Matt and Amy are divorced, but they still live on the same large piece of property. It’s a whole thing.)

It’s not a short haul for Joel and Molly to visit the farm, but pumpkin season is THE huge event for this family.

At least professionally speaking.

“The first weekend of pumpkin season has officially come and the whole family came out!” the Roloffs shared on the farm’s official Instagram page.

“Thank you to everyone who has come out despite the rainy Oregon weather!”

Amy Roloff Shares Rare Photo with Molly... and Jacob! Wow!

It’s a good time to be Amy Roloff.

Earlier this week, the Little People, Big World star was actually knighted, as she was awarded a pretty special distinction by those in charge of the Portland Rose Festival.

Then, she celebrated a very cool milestone with members of her family.

But both of those achievement paled in comparison to what Amy was likely most proud of from the past few days…

… a chance to spend time with her son AND daughter.

Indeed, Molly Roloff has apparently paid her mother a rare visit, as Amy has excitedly shared multiple photos of herself and her loved one on Instagram.

“Molly came to the farm for a short visit this past weekend and I was so excited and happy to see her. Love this girl. She’s doing awesome,” wrote Amy as a caption to the trio of images we’ve shared here, adding:

“She was here to see good friends for one is heading to NYC. #momentslikethesearepriceless #familyandfriends #amyssecondactcontinues.”

Making the occasion even more unique, as you can see above?

Amy got to hang out with both Molly and Jacob.

The Roloff matriarch has a perfectly strong relationship with both of these children, of course.

But unlike her two other kids (Zach and Jeremy), they do not film Little People, Big World with their parents; nor do they live close by.

Molly and her husband live a couple hours away, while Jacob and his fiancee live anywhere they want in the Pacific Northwest, traveling the region in their RV, with their two dogs.

As you can see below, Molly made the most of her time with family, too, getting a visit in with sister-in-law Tori and adorable nephew, Jackson.

He really is so very precious, don’t you think?

Amy last hung out with Molly in late April, making the journey over to her house in Spokane, Washingtin to chill with her and husband Joel.

“The best time in Spokane visiting Molly and Joel this weekend!” wrote Amy on Instagram at the time, concluding:

“Hike, walk around the neighborhood, favorite bookstore, local eatery, church, great conversations…. Sure will miss them! I’ll be back.”

We doubt Molly will ever be back on TLC, however. She seems very content to remain far away from the glare of television cameras.

Could we see a return from Jacob, though? It’s possible.

The youngest of the Roloff clan has very clearly reconciled with his parents and siblings.

But questions have now been raised in general about the future of the farm and of this reality TV show.

Did you catch the latest Little People, Big World episode? We explained HERE why it cast some doubt on what’s to come for various members of this family.

We also outlined below why the series may soon come to an end.

We hope we’re very wrong, but take a look and see if you agree with the points made here:

Molly Hopkins: Caught on Video Abusing Luis Mendez?

Be warned: this video features some upsetting content.

90 Day Fiance couple Molly Hopkins and Luis Mendez are divorcing, and, at one point, it seemed that Luis was accusing Molly of domestic violence.

Now, this very tense video has surfaced. Is this evidence?

Molly is from Georgia. Luis is from the Dominican Republic.

The two met in Santo Domingo and fell in love. But they had a falliing out and, despite efforts to make it work, decided to divorce at the beginning of the year.

Later, Luis hinted to followers that there was more going on than a simple parting of the ways.

"If you want to see all about domestic violence soon," Luis teased on his Instagram. "Follow this page. It"s gonna post there."

Now, it appears that cell phone video that Luis may have recorded during his relationship with Molly has surfaced.

The one-minute video appeared on multiple social media outlets, though it is not currently on Luis" actual Instagram page.

The unsung superheroes over at Starcasm did their best to piece together a transcript of the audible parts of this video.

They note that there is some disagreement over whether Luis is saying the word "hate" or "hit" in this video.

That is a … very important difference. We"ll have more discussion of that at the end.

Molly: "Good luck! Oh, you think you’re going to get something from me? Cause you ain’t takin’ s–t from me!"

Luis: "Why you have to …?"

Molly: "You’re not gonna do anything. Where you talk about …"

Not everything that they say is easy to understand. There are portions of the video where the audio is just garbled.

Luis: "Why?"

Molly: "You think you’re gonna get s–t? You ain’t gettin’ s–t!"

Luis: "Why you — Why you hate me? Why you hate me? Why you hate me? Why?"

There"s some more audio that is just unintelligible.

Molly: "Good luck with that! Oh, I got money, and I got a lawyer. You’re out. You’re f–king outta here!"

Luis: "Why? Why you hate me? Why you hate me?"

Molly: "Because you know exactly!"

Luis: "That is a bulls–t. That is a bulls–t."

Molly: "You manipulate!"

Luis: "After I left everything for you? Because I …"

He is referring to leaving his home in the Dominican Republic to come to George to be with a significantly older woman.

Molly: "You didn’t leave everything! …it has nothing to do with filming. It has to do with you…how you think you’re gonna stay here"

Molly: "Don’t f–kin’ threaten me. Don’t threaten me…"

Luis: "You know, I did everything because I love you."

Molly: "…piece of s–t. You’re f–king trash"

Yikes.

Now, quite frankly, with the exchange of those heated words, we feel very confident in saying that these two should not be married.

If someone talks to you that way, they are a toxic influence on your life.

But … while this sounds like verbal and perhaps emotional abuse, was there any domestic violence in this video?

Several times, it seems that Molly is raising her hand. But whether she was trying to strike Luis or simply poiting for emphasis (as many people do while speaking) is not entirely clear.

(In contrast, 90 Day Fiance"s own cameras were there to film it when Anfisa Arkhipchenko struck Jorge Nava, which left little doubt)

Perhaps a courtroom video analyst who has trained for years in these things would have better luck determining if the video is evidence of violence.

Similarly, perhaps some fancy audio tech could help determine whether Luis is saying "hit" or "hate." Hate is toxic, but hitting is domestic violence.

No matter what, the video sure is intense and a little scary.

90 Day Fiance: Molly Hopkins & Luis Mendez Are Divorcing

90 Day Fiance couple sometimes get their happily ever after. Since Molly Hopkins and Luis Mendez beat the odds and got married, it looked like they were home free.

Unfortunately, as we mentioned, Molly and Luis separated a few days after New Year’s Day.

Now, it’s official — Molly has filed for divorce from Luis.

At first, it was a classic boy-meets-girl story.

Almost.

In this case, the “boy” was 26 years old and working in a bar in Santo Domingo.

The “girl” was much older than he and from Georgia in the US.

They met when she was on a trip to the Dominican Republic and they fell for each other.

And they decided to broadcast their story on 90 Day Fiance.

Aside from criticisms over being perceived to be using each other — Molly wanting Luis as a “boy toy” and Luis wanting US citizenship and perhaps Molly’s financial stability — they had other concerns.

The biggest was Molly hoping that Luis would be a good stepfather to her two daughters.

There was also Molly’s shady criminal history. Suffice it to say that her driving records are a little scary.

But apparently they found a way past all of that.

In July of 2017, Molly and Luis got married.

They made it! … Sort of.

Marriages, as we know, aren’t always a guaranteed happily ever after. Far from it, honestly.

Molly and Luis had some sort of spat and parted ways before the 90 Day Fiance Tell All Special … but they reconciled before the special itself aired.

That was not to last forever, though.

On January 5th, the couple separated.

Some fans who learned of the split hoped that they would reconcile. But that was not to be.

Now, Reality Blurb reports that Molly Hopkins filed for divorce from Luis Mendez on January 23rd.

The papers were filed in Georgia, of course. Molly used her married name, Molly Mondez, when doing the filing.

Like most divorces, she cited irreconcilable differences, writing:

“Plaintiff is entitled to a divorce from Defendant in the statutory grounds that the marriage is irretrievably broken with no hope of reconciliation.”

The 42-year-old is keeping their finances separate and hopes that Luis doesn’t make any moves to dispose of any shared marital property that they might possess.

A sad ending to a story that many had hoped would end with a new, happy family.

Luis doesn’t seem to be too broken up about the divorce — he’s nonchalantly posting topless selfies on Instagram and promising fans that he’d be happy to meet them after the divorce is finalized.

He did, however, rant and rave about TLC because he claims that he wasn’t paid for his time on 90 Day Fiance.

It’s been speculated that non-American stars on the show may have to wait to be paid until they have their work visas, for legal reasons.

But Luis declared his threat to sue over it, saying that foreigners were simply used for free labor and discarded like trash. Yikes.

It’s probably safe to say that Luis has some regrets.

90 Day Fiance Spoilers: Do Molly and Luis Make It?!

One of the new 90 Day Fiance couples that we’ve been getting to know is made up of Molly and Luis.

They face a number of relationship hurdles beyond the issue of citizenship. The biggest of those is probably a conspicuous age gap.

But we now know a huge spoiler about what awaits Luis and Molly. Okay … you’ve been warned!

First, a refresher.

Molly is an American from Georgia. She’s a lingerie entrepreneur. She’s also 41.

Luis is Dominican … and he’s only 26.

Their age difference is pretty significant, though we’d point out that part of what raises people’s eyebrows is that they’re accustomed to seeing the gender dynamic being a little different.

.In other words, when a man has a girlfriend 15 years his junior, he’s praised. When a woman like Molly does the same, people are more likely to emphasize her age and suspect the man of being up to something.

In this case, some fans wondered about Luis’ intentions.

He was working in a bar into Santo Domingo when he and Molly met, and some wondered if he was less interested in Molly and more interested in her US citizenship … and potentially her money.

Molly is also a mother, and 90 Day Fiance teased that her daughters weren’t entirely onboard with her prospective new husband.

We’ve also learned a bit about Molly Hopkins’ shady history.

Long story short? Molly’s criminal record and multiple mugshots suggest that she might not be the safest driver.

We sure hope that Molly told Luis about all of that before …

(Remember how we said that there woudl be spoilers?)

… They got married!

Starcasm reports that Molly and Luis are married.

Reality shows thrive on secrets, but it’s hard to keep marriages a secret when they’re a matter of court record.

In this case, the court records show that Molly Hopkins and Luis Emmanuel Mendez Rosa tied the knot on July 20, 2017.

(Just two days before Selena Gomez’s birthday!)

It’s wonderful that they were able to get past their relationship barriers and make it to the altar. However … it seems that, in so doing, they may have stirred up some trouble.

See, remember how Molly has two daughters? The youngest one’s name is Kensley.

Kensley’s father and Molly got their divorce a little over three years ago.

Molly was granted full custody, and records indicate that her ex made child-support contributions but not on a regular basis.

Until this year, the biggest “stir” that Kensley’s father had made, that we know of, was asking for legal recognition as Kensley’s father (so, ensuring his visitation rights) and for an amount to be set for child-support payments.

In July of this year, he suddenly changed his tune … and filed a Complaint For Equitable Partitioning And Damages.

That means that he wants payment for his portion of the house that he says that they jointly own, and repayment for a $ 45,000 loan that he says that he gave Molly. (He says that she has repaid over half of it, but that a $ 20,500 balance remains)

Molly says that she is unaware of any lingering balance on the loan.

Molly’s ex is asking that she be forced to sell her car (which she was awarded during the divorce) in order to pay.

We somehow suspect that the timing of all of this was not a coincidence.

Marriage represents an opportunity in the eyes of divorced exes. When alimony is involved, it’s usually grounds for them to stop paying.

In this case, it may be that Molly’s ex doesn’t like the idea of another man living in a home where he once lived or driving a car that he once drove.

Some exes can’t let go.

And then there’s the reality of Luis now being a stepdad to Molly’s daughters. That can easily stir up unhappy feelings.

We don’t know whether Molly’s ex sees this as more of a legal opportunity or an emotional motive, but … we imagine that the litigation for this isn’t a lot of fun for anyone involved.
