In an exclusive sneak peek of the Oct. 30 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After, Angela Deem and Michael Ilesanmi continue to...Decision day for the Married At First Sight couples was shocking, to say the least. This season it has been practically impossible to keep up with all of the explosive arguments, insecurity and all of the challenges thus far. This has led many of us not to be sure of which couples would actually stay together. Let me just say, I was very surprised in many cases. I have a feeling that we will uncover more juicy details at the reunion and I can’t wait! My gut is telling me that all decisions, may not be final.
It’s time for the couples to take control of their marriages and their futures as they make the decision to stay married or get a divorce. But as they prepare to move forward from the experiment, a shocking realization leads one couple to reverse their decision. Let’s get straight to the recap.
The first couple to decide whether they will stay together or go their separate ways is Nate and Stacia. Recently, the two have been having issues when he felt his wife was diminishing his efforts in the process. Stacia worries that his maturity and lack of relationship experience could result in a loveless marriage. Despite all of their issues, this couple decided to memorialize their wedding date by getting it tattooed on their fingers. That has to mean something, right?
Nate presents Stacia with flowers as they sit with the experts. When asked some of her concerns, Stacia wastes no time pulling out a list. Namely, his anger and mommy issues have become a major source of frustration. Nate reminds his wife that it’s not just him; they both have things they need to work on. Nate decides the positives outweigh the negative in their relationship and choses to stay married. Stacia reveals she had to think long and hard, but ultimately she believed they will be able to overcome their issues. Personally, I think he may run away screaming when he moves into her all white brand new home. But if they are up for the challenge, maybe there is still hope.
The second couple to decide is Alexis and Justin. Despite being the initial front runners of the show, their relationship has been plagued with numerous ups and downs. After Justin’s dog attacked Alexis’ they just couldn’t seem to get back on track. Justin is sensitive and insecure. But his wife isn’t sure she is able to deal with everything that comes with the man she married. Throughout the season, she has complained of feeling smothered, him not being an alpha male and having stamina issues in the bedroom.
While talking to the experts, Alexis makes it clear she didn’t appreciate him continuously reminding him he gave up his dog. Whew! I think if I made that hard decision and my partner didn’t appreciate it, I would remind them as well. Unsurprisingly, Justin wants to stay married. He is practically begging her with his eyes to make the same choice. Alexis reads a letter she wrote agreeing to stay married. But she admits she isn’t sure about forever, but she is willing to give them time.
After saying yes, Alexis makes it clear she still feels they have major issues. She only said yes to give them more time. Things go left quickly, when Justin tells her his biggest fear was his wife quitting. This results in an argument where Justin challenges if she truly wants to give them a real chance. Sigh! Obviously, Justin needs validation and Alexis is unwilling to give him that in the way he desires. In a post interview, Alexis make the decision to change her mind and leave the marriage. I feel bad for Justin, but ultimately I think its for the best. But Justin really have to do this with the rest of the cast all together?
Lindy and Miguel are next up and I must admit I am curious about how this is going to go. Although they had a great start, these two have had a tumultuous relationship. Both of these people are overdramatic and unpredictable, so I have no idea what is going to happen. Miguel has worried if he could deal with his wife’s angry outbursts and negativity. Lindy feels like his controlling demeanor and him doubting their marriage caused her to constantly second guess things. Despite their challenges they both decide to stay together. Personally, I think we may see an update saying the opposite in the future. The issues they have don’t just go away.
Our final couple, Krysten and Mitch are probably the ones everyone is the most curious about. Although they have found a way to experience happiness together, no one can forget all their issues. Very early on, Mitch was unsure of his compatibility with his wife based on attraction, social and environmental issues. He has been uncompromising and Krysten has been too accommodating which has made their relationship unstable. At one point, her frustration bubbled up and she lashed out at the experts when she felt they suggested she should accept him saying he was “attracted enough” to her. Like her, I feel she deserves someone who doesn’t make her insecure.
When Krysten and Mitch sit down it is obvious the experts are advocating for them to stay together. He isn’t able to provide the level of commitment that he knows Krysten deserves. Of course following his speech, she decides that she needs to choose herself. Though they both decide to get a divorce, they still hold hands and say positive things about each other. For some reason, she still feels the need to leave the door open for them to possibly cross paths in the future. Huh! I just want Krysten to value herself more and put her needs above others. Sadly, she had to learn this lesson in front of the other couples when Mitch was forced to admit the door was closed for him.

Last week on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion, Lisa Rinna addressed claims that she was using her grief over the death of her mother, Lois Rinna, to excuse her bad behavior.
Now this is the main event. Kathy Hilton is joining the RHOBH reunion to take on Rinna and Erika Jayne. She arrived in her robe and slippers, and she has her brand of tequila. Of course! Meanwhile, Rinna is pacing the stage, repeating, “All I have to do is tell the truth. That’s all we’re doing-just telling the truth.”
Erika has friends with benefits-more like “a roster.” You go, girl! Next up is a package of Erika being “lit” and telling Garcelle Beauvais’ son Jax to “get the f*ck out of here.” Erika owned that her drinking was an escape and that she was “numbing” her pain.
Garcelle started to worry about Erika’s drinking when she saw the clip of Erika swearing at Jax. Garcelle called out Dorit Kemsley for not speaking up at the time.
Kyle Richards, her husband Mauricio Umansky, Dorit, and her husband, PK Kemsley, all laughed about it. After Kyle watched the clip, she felt awful. Garcelle pointed out that if she had done that to one of their kids, it would have been a totally different reaction. Exactly!
Erika was cleared in a fraud lawsuit. Sutton Stracke was the first person to text Erika and say that she was happy for her.
The singer said that she doesn’t have a responsibility towards any of the victims, and she is in a complicated legal situation. Dorit called out Erika for her delivery. Erika admitted that she has been “disappointed” by her behavior this season.
Kyle said that she was upset in Aspen when Erika didn’t show empathy for the victims. Erika stated that she was angry, and she was speaking the truth. Kyle pointed out that she takes heat for being friends with Erika. Erika insisted she has shown empathy, but host Andy Cohen noted that “it’s not landing.”
Andy asked if Erika is trying to get her earrings back. “We are on appeal-for legal reasons,” Erika repeatedly told Andy. When asked if any of the other ladies would have kept the earrings, Garcelle, Crystal Kung Minkoff, and Dorit immediately said they would not have. Erika claims she never “whined” about losing her previous life.
Kathy settled in next to Kyle. Buckle up! Now we are reviewing the Aspen trip and Kathy’s meltdown. When the recap shows Rinna saying that Kathy threatened to “destroy” Kyle and her family, Kathy remarked, “You want to swear on your life on a bible?” Wow!
A viewer questioned why Kathy wasn’t allowed to promote her tequila like the other ladies promote their brands. At Kemo Sabe, Kathy thought that Kyle had arranged a tasting at the bar. She copped to being mad at Kyle, not Rinna. Rinna ordering her friend Kendall Jenner’s tequila simply aggravated her. Rinna said that she promoted Kathy’s tequila other times during the season, and Kathy agreed. Kyle started to cry, saying that everything is always her fault. Kathy accepted responsibility for being upset at Kyle.
At the club, Kathy explained that the DJ didn’t see her. She asked a manager to put some songs on and offered to pay him. He asked where she was from, and he told her to “go back to LA.”
Kathy wanted everyone to leave and yelled at Kyle. Erika said that she saw Kathy coming from the dance floor, and that Kathy allegedly called the DJ a slur. Kathy denied it, and Erika insisted that she was telling the truth. Kathy also said that she has “a little more credibility” than Erika. Yikes!
Andy said there was a human resources investigation, and it came down to a “she said, she said.” So, no conclusive result.
Rinna took Kathy home in the sprinter van. Kathy admitted to venting and felt she could talk to Rinna off-camera. Kathy claimed that Rinna said, “I get it. I get it. You’re preaching to the choir.” Rinna doesn’t remember those words exactly.
Andy gave a run-down of everything that Rinna reported that Kathy said about the other ladies. Kathy told Rinna that Rinna is going to take a lie detector test. Shades of Lisa Vanderpump taking a lie detector test during “puppy gate.”
Kathy denied all of it. She said that Rinna is “having problems.” Kathy accused Rinna of making up the text about staying silent because it wasn’t on her phone. But Andy saw it on Rinna’s phone.
“You were having a psychotic break,” Rinna said. Kathy replied that she said other things, like Kyle really hated her sometimes. Kyle was upset that it got out from the group to the press, which made it difficult for her and her sister. Erika said that her publicist also represents Nicky Hilton. Kathy didn’t think that he would do it. Erika said she wanted it all to be discussed at the reunion.
Kathy apologized to Kyle on camera to make things right. Then Kyle wanted her to apologize to Rinna. Kathy said that Rinna wanted the apology on camera to save her job. She said Rinna “fights with everybody.” She added that Rinna drove Lisa Vanderpump off the show. Kathy referenced what Rinna did to her sister, Kim Richards, and how she had issues with Camille Grammer.
Kathy called Rinna “the biggest bully in Hollywood and everyone knows it.” Kathy added that Rinna is “mean and you don’t tell the truth.” Kyle’s sister wanted to know why Rinna didn’t say something to her that night, and then left it between she and Kyle.
Rinna alleged that she was “abused” by Kathy yelling at her. Garcelle pointed out that if it is between Kyle and Kathy, then Rinna should back out. And Rinna is hurting Kyle, her supposed friend. Rinna “lets it go” and wished both ladies the best. A moment later, Rinna stated she was “traumatized” by Kathy’s behavior. Andy remarked that Rinna has seen some stuff on RHOBH.
“I saw the devil. You are a f*cking monster,” Rinna remarked. Well, I’m glad that she let that go!
Kyle started to sob and can’t speak. She told Erika and Rinna that she is the one who gets hurt and that she was also wounded by her sister. Kyle is tired of the stress in her family. She needs to be in a better place with Kathy, but her sister shut it down. Kathy was upset with Kyle and accused her of acting like “a martyr.” Kathy gets ready to leave the stage and claimed that Kyle didn’t “say two words.”
Kyle was upset and told Garcelle and Sutton she didn’t want to do the toast. Kyle asked Andy if she could skip it. Andy asked if the sisters can move forward, and Kyle whispered, “I hope so.” All the ladies except Kyle did the toast. Andy hugged Kyle. Dorit went into Kyle’s dressing room and gives her a pep talk. Kyle fears that this time, her bond with Kathy cannot be repaired.
TELL US- WILL KATHY AND KYLE FIX THEIR RELATIONSHIP? DO YOU BELIEVE KATHY OR RINNA ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN ASPEN? WHAT DID YOU THINK OF THIS SEASON?
