She literally sold a handful of shampoo hanging from her corner store shack for pennies that she said she broke even with. Do u know how poor the neighborhood must be to be buying shampoo at a handful at a time?
She’s not getting paid though, from what I understand, and Brandan could likely make more just getting a regular job in the states, without all the mental trauma of being on TV.
You are 100% wrong, the foreigners get paid. The only show where they don’t is 90 Day, sometimes HEA IF THEY DONT HAVE WORKING PAPERS YET. If they’re in their own country they get paid, the same way you get paid if you work in your country.
To no one in particular, on ANY show, wherever they’re shooting, the person doing the “acting” only gets paid if they are legal to work in that country. On a temporary basis, sometimes they get temporary work visas. There is no rule about anyone getting paid or not getting paid but for what I’ve just said. And no one gets paid until the end and no one gets someone else’s “share”. It’s pretty cut and dried. Legal? Paid. Not? Won’t.
Further, they also only get paid for the number of episodes they actually show up in. These people can be filming for months, 12+ hours a day. After putting all that effort in, your story could still mostly end up on the cutting room floor.
That’s for the original show, because the partner without a green card is legally not allowed to earn money. But this isn’t the original show - they’re in the Philippines, so I imagine TLC was sending them both money before they were fired for breaking the NDA.
We already knew she was untrustworthy and had no problems exploiting her kids for money. It’s really sad though that he still lets her in to ruin his life some more.
ok but, who made the comment? I don’t think YT comments are any more or less credible than what we read here, unless it was made by someone in the TLC family.
imo, I think that was the amount the cast was earning at the beginning but it goes up if they progress through other seasons and/or spin-offs. Otherwise, I can’t see very many potential cast members being ok with that.
That is true although do they make enough to make a difference? I heard the foreigners don’t get paid at all and the Americans not a whole lot.
$5 would make a difference.

Your thinking about 90 day fiance.
In the other way they are in the foreigner’s home country so it’s legal to pay them and they do.

The attorneys, paper work, visas and sponsors are probably going to be sticking points when you have no money.

Blows my mind how Brandan’s mom abandoned him early in his life then reappeared to ruin his TLC opportunity.

god i hate that fucking bitch
What happened with her? I haven’t been able to get caught up and only saw a short commercial clip of her showing up
I read on TLC utube channel the Americans get 1k- 1.5k an episode.

What the Americans gain will be enough for necessities for few months probably. But not for their debt
