90 Day Fiance: Catie Throws Josh a Party

Catie Norboe pops Cheetos on the drive to the hotel after picking up Josh Atkins on 90 Day Fiance. She leads him in a bungled attempt of the national anthem. Josh thinks the Cheetos stink. But she thinks he smells bad especially his breath. Josh admits Catie can be a menace. But he melts when she does things like decorating the hotel room with an American theme. Catie Norboe admits she wants Josh to want her and feels insecure.

The couple pass out from exhaustion. But Josh Atkins rallies in the morning and Catie Norboe wakes up happy. They spend the day exploring Portland and interact with a goat. Josh expresses his concern with Catie’s loose lips when she drinks. She promises she will try to curb her make-out mania. Josh is patient and understanding. But feels disrespected. Catie Norboe lightens the mood by admitting she planned a welcome party for him.

Catie Norboe admits to 90 Day Fiance producers that there will be more than a few people at the party who she’s swapped spit with. She’s made out with about 90 percent of the men in her running club. Nevertheless, Josh Atkins is excited to walk into the party but leery when Catie starts drinking. He mingles with a few guys who hint around they’ve experienced Catie’s craziness. Josh admits he feels awkward. But stands by his love for Catie Norboe in the end.

90 Day Fiance: Shea McGuire Gets Clean

Shea McGuire prepares his home for Anabelle Chua’s arrival on 90 Day Fiance. Anabelle is a neat freak. And doesn’t care for dog hair. So, Shea lint rolls the couches while making the dogs give up their sofa habit. The couple have an emotional reunion at the airport. Anabelle thinks Shea could benefit from some exercise. And can’t wait to scrub him down especially in his privates that she refers to as balls and eggs.

In a scene that everybody could do without Anabelle Chua makes good on her promise with zest. She even clips his toenails. Shea of course loves it and once she’s done scrubbing him down he pops some champagne. The couple are staying at a former church that has been remodeled into a hotel. Shea McGuire isn’t intimidated by the fact that they are getting busy in an old church. And Anabelle doesn’t seem to mind either.

Debby Fears Mido Has Cold Feet

Debby Rolando is new to this season of 90 Day Fiance. She lives in New Orleans with her daughter Devyn and adorable dog Lil’ Bit. She works in insurance. And describes her work as monotonous. But her personal life is anything but. Six years ago she took a trip with her daughter Devyn to see the pyramids in Egypt. The tour guide called her Cleopatra. And Devyn told her mom he was actually flirting with her.

Debby was doubtful until 30 something tour guide Mohamed “Mido” Fayed planted a kiss on her. She claims he’s an Egyptian movie star. But he won’t send her any of his movies. She cites the fact that he has hundreds of thousands of Instagram followers. So he must be a big star. But he doesn’t post anything about Debby on his Insta. Mido sends headshots and her daughter Devyn finds them comical.

But Debby Rolando is all in on 90 Day Fiance. She’s even willing to boot her loyal sidekick Lil’ Bit out of the bed where she has slept next to Debby her whole life. Harsh. She claims since Mido Fayed is Muslim, Lil’ Bit can’t share the bed. She meets with friends who are shocked as Debby reveals he’s also a 41-year-old virgin. But as Mido’s arrival gets closer he goes silent. Eventually postponing his trip to the United States due to his father being ill. So Lil’ Bit can keep her spot for now.

90 Day Fiance: Marissa Promises Her Kids a Dog

Marissa Rubinetti lives a fast-paced life on 90 Day Fiance. She treasures her time with her kids in the suburbs after the hustle and bustle of her job as COO of Kleinfeld Bridal in New York City. Her two young sons have adjusted to 50/50 custody after the divorce. But Marissa has concerns how things will be when her younger fiance Edward Miguel Gomez arrives in a few days from the Dominican Republic. The boys admit they are excited. Because Marissa sweetened the deal by throwing in the promise of a pet dog.

Marissa Rubinetti assures the kids that Edward Miguel Gomez isn’t there to replace their dad. But rather just another person living with them and interacting. The kids are polite and well spoken. But admit the dog is really the end goal. The older son wants to know if Edward has money. And what he will do for work. Marissa explains that Edward worked in a hotel. But there aren’t really many resort hotels in suburban Pennsylvania. So Marissa will be supporting him.

Ashia Won’t Take No for an Answer

Ashia is on a mission on 90 Day Fiance. She’s determined to appeal the decision of the embassy. After her fiance was denied a k-1 visa. Ashia admits she doesn’t take no for an answer. She gets support from her mom and her God brother Rod. He will accompany her to see an immigration lawyer. Rod has plenty of concerns about Ashia. He suggests she date in America. Pointing out there are Nigerians in America. Ashia admits that’s true but says they aren’t the ones for her.

Rod suggests Ashia may be getting scammed. And even finds the law office name “Love Immigration” a little sketchy. Ashia explains to the attorney what went down at Maxwell’s interview. Unfortunately for Ashia, an appeal isn’t possible. There are a few other options including getting married in Nigeria and applying for a different type of visa. But it could still take a year or more. Ashia is devastated by the news. But she’ll keep on fighting. Till next time!
