I can’t tell if the producers are just picking couples that have major secrets for the drama. But I can’t imagine being in a long-distance relationship in which all you can do is talk on the phone — and yet when you start the 90 days you are only just finding out major life details about your partner??

  • Gino didn’t tell Jasmine about quitting
  • Jasmine lied about the butt implants
  • Nikki only admitted she was trans during a fight
  • Sophie hadn’t told Rob about her ovary cyst surgery
  • Ashley didn’t tell her fiancé she was a witch
  • Her partner (sorry forgot his name but would never forget Rico MFing Suave) lied to his family about where he was

There might be more as I’m only a few episodes in. It’s just odd to me because I could never keep major life events like that to myself in a relationship. Is that just more normal than I realise??

    I remember listening to a previous person that was on 90 Day, saying that the producers would put them in situations that would purposely cause conflict between the two. I imagine there’s a lot of that going on, which causes the drama you see. I think she said the drama is technically real too (vs completely fabricated).

      I believe someone posted TLC’s questionnaire for couples who want to be on the show and one of the questions was “do you have any secrets you haven’t told your partner?”
