They said early on in this season that she lived in India for a year before deciding to move there permanently to be with TJ. Did people not see where she said that the things she chose for the apartment construction were not what she picked out before she left? Why is everyone saying she should have researched the culture? I’m pretty sure living there for a year can equal to doing some research on the internet.

    Thank you! You do not learn about a person and a family from ‘research’. You learn it from conversation. She was deprived of knowing what others were saying, and he lied to her about his family’s expectations.

    TJ should done HIS research. He should have listened to her words, should have known who he was marrying!! HE KNEW she did not intend to spend her day cooking and cleaning. He married her knowing her views and intentions, and knowing he would jam that square peg into a round hole after she was stuck.

      Amen!! It’s sickening how so many people are trying to blame KIMBERLY for TJ LYING TO HER. Such a misogynistic culture we have, and people don’t even realize when they feed into it.

        I don’t blame her for the lies at all. But she can be very annoying. She should learn how to speak on not scream. IMO

          She starts by talking, but after 30mins of hearing how she’s wrong and should just do as they do, she explodes. He told her they would have their own lives and not copy his family. He lied. She should make him sleep on the living room floor alone for a week and ask if he wants to continue living like his family.

            Yeah I don’t blame her for exploding, even just watching the condensed version of his nonsense.

            I’m kinda shocked at how many people on here criticize her reactions. Like… did we watch the same show?

      He probably kept her in the headspace of what is beautiful in India, the meditation, beautiful fabrics, palaces. She said,“This is like a fairy tale.”

      I still think he wanted a prized, fair-complected, pretty woman he could display as a status symbol. She probably only exhibited the adoring, soft-spoken side of herself that you see at the end of the wedding.

      Not the raving banshee side.
