Manuel traveled all the way to america, to move, with one backpack!? What is this? Kept expecting them to go to baggage or for the bag to be in the background. Nope one single backpack for supposedly the rest of his life. TLC fakery? What’s he really here for and for how long?! 🤥🤔

    We didn’t know a lot about his backstory other than he’s a construction worker and told his mom he went to a job. I wondered if he lives with his mom and just packed “as normal” so she wouldn’t question why he was packing more than usual. It’s likely he also doesn’t have a lot of material things other than clothes and toiletries (like a lot of guys will be) and figured he can get that stuff after he came to the states.

      I think maybe in the first episode, he had been working out of town or traveling to jobs, so he probably is used to packing lightly.

      Secrets out thanks to her family & friends all over Rochester. Its staged. He and Ashley came to a financial agreement. He leaves family behind, they get paid on the show, split it and after she becomes a realty tv star he can bring his family over in a couple of years.

        I think you nailed it. I can’t see why Ashley would want to be with this loser. Other than she likes to sex. He’s got nothing going for it looks like a staged act for the reality show world.
