    Let’s look at Rob and Sophie subjectively for a second.

    Rob is broke and jobless with an abrasive personality. She could get thousands of guys in LA who would be willing to take on Rob’s role but with financial security, a better personality and a bathroom.

    She already lives in a first world country of England, she is already wealthy as she claims, so what is it she is after then? Fame? Reality show career? Something isn’t adding up.

      Rob is literally a walking red flag, talking about he wants to humble her but is clearly feeling someway that she comes from money— asking her to ask her family for money ? Absolutely not— he must think because of his “ like Mike “ braids he’s hot shit, he needs a wake-up call

      Yeah,I don’t think she’s as rich as she claims to be. Rob has an awful personality. I don’t know what she sees in him.

        Agreed, I don’t believe she’s ever been that rich unless it’s in comparison with Rob. I do believe she’s estranged from her family and couldn’t think of what to do other than go try it out with The Knob.

      I really wish people would stop acting like US citizenship is some kind of prize for people coming from other first world countries. We’re a third world country wearing a Gucci belt, I’d much rather live in the UK than here, frankly, and I’m solidly middle class. They showed Sophie in her very nice apartment in the UK and she seems to do just fine as an “influencer” so I doubt her goal is to get her greencard so she can claw her way out of poverty in her home country. I think she just wants to become famous (D list 90 day famous would suffice) so she’s using Rob for the show. I really HOPE that’s the case, because there’s no other objective reason why anyone would date that douche.

      Also, can we talk about how Rob seems like he’s got some crazy abusive energy. He is angry, defensive, rude, he puts her down. He flat out scares me

      Rob is broke and jobless with an abrasive personality.

      Has he held a job previously or just another model/influencer blah blah blah type?

      I think she grew up with some level of “new” money and her living in different countries, combined with new money help or gifts when she was younger, gives him this chip on his shoulder that he’s also using against her. I think the producers are pushing this angle because otherwise, they have nothing to argue about other than he’s an asshole.
