Julia Gets Jealous on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After

Julia Trubkina agrees to meet hubby Brandon Gibb’s high school friend Melanie. The evening starts off on a sour note when Brandon chooses a place that doesn’t have a full bar. While he’s happy to sip on beer, Julia whines that she doesn’t like beer. But she makes do with a Twisted Tea. When Melanie arrives with her boyfriend Julia is instantly peeved that she has curled her hair and put on makeup. She thinks she did it for Brandon.

Things get worse on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After when Melanie and Brandon remember good times on the farm. They used to raid his parent’s liquor cabinet and stay up all night watching scary movies. Julia would like to think that Brandon had never even spoken to a girl till she came along. Thank God Melanie didn’t mention hanging out in the hot tub where clothing isn’t allowed. Julia gets a little snippy with Melanie.

Melanie isn’t going to take it and starts questioning her intentions with Brandon. She pretty much point blank asks her if she’s using him for a green card. She also brings up her past as go-go dancer. Julia says she wouldn’t tell Brandon if she was using him for a green card anyway and storms off. Brandon wonders why she can’t just be normal. Kind of an odd thing to ask for an exterminator who co-exists with crickets. So, he follows her out and they leave.

Kalani’s dad Low has returned from working in California. He wants to take Kalani out for coffee and talk. It seems her mom Lisa tipped him off to the couple’s marital woes. Kalani agrees to chat over some java.

She is kind of taken aback when her dad suggests she hang in there and not give up on the marriage. In the beginning Low was not a fan of Asuelu. But he tells her that in Samoa there is no divorce. And that she has the two boys to consider as well. Kalani agrees that it’s a tough decision especially because of the kids. But she is really struggling with all the fighting and communication problems.

Next on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After, Low takes Asuelu golfing so they too can have a chat. He lets Asuelu know that the problems are serious. So much so that Kalani mentioned divorce.

Proving that behind that beard braid and tough exterior is a real softie.

She is relieved when Andrei comes home until he starts telling her that her brother and sister attacked him and called him a d*ck.

On 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After, Elizabeth gets irate and Eleanor begins to cry since her parents are carrying on. Andrei yells to give her a cracker or something. Libby tells him her day was awful and she will need a nanny because she can’t be juggling a toddler and a real estate empire. Andrei isn’t down with the whole nanny thing because he doesn’t trust anybody with his daughter.

Later it’s back to the immigration attorney for Andrei. He needs to reapply for his green card. The lawyer says immigration has been a pain lately so he can’t take this lightly. And he needs to keep working to prove that they share income. She also suggests that any shady stuff from his past could  come back to haunt him. And may even result in deportation. Andrei says he’s buried all that and it’s not a problem. Libby makes shocked faces and the attorney calls him arrogant.

And Natalie blames her as the reason Mike got cold feet and called the wedding off the first time. So, she is pretty crabby.

Mike asks what she thinks Oklahoma will be like. And Natalie says like The Wizard of Oz. Mike tells her that was actually Kansas. He asks if they can help Natalie make a traditional Ukrainian dish on thanksgiving. This makes her very angry as she says only natives can make the dish. Trish is there to greet them at the airport and Natalie hangs back a little but does compliment her plaid shirt.

On 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After, Natalie is a bit surprised to walk into Mike’s mom’s house and see hundreds of ceramic pigs. It seems she collects them.
