There have been many cringey moments in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, but these cast members’ awkward behavior and bad decisions make fans groan.
Though the 90 Day Fiancé franchise is supposed to deliver inspiring love stories, many fans watch it because of the awkward and entertaining cast members it features. There are many stars in the franchise, but some of them cause so much second-hand embarrassment, viewers can’t help but cringe at their weird antics.
There is no shortage of cringey cast members in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, and fans often form a love-hate relationship when watching them that oddly makes the stars more compelling. Some make viewers face-palm on their behalf because of their terrible decisions, and others just exude awkwardness from every pore in their body.
The show likes to highlight uncomfortable and cringeworthy moments, though that’s not always reflective of what a cast member is like all the time. However, these stars are the most awkward in the franchise, and viewers can’t resist tuning in, despite feeling embarrassed on their behalf.
Jenny Slatten
For years, fans have groaned while watching Jenny’s relationship with Sumit Singh because it seemed so obvious to everyone that he was stringing her along. Now on the current season of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, it’s gotten even worse because all the roadblocks in the way of their relationship are gone and Sumit still won’t marry Jenny. It’s hard for fans to watch Jenny make excuses for Sumit, and she’s definitely giving off cringey vibes.
Ed Brown
Viewers have always gotten entertainment out of Ed’s awkward ways around women, and this season of 90 Day: The Single Life is no exception. His first date on the second season was almost unbearably embarrassing, and he even started tearing up during the middle of it while talking about his ex-girlfriend Liz. Though he used to be compelling, many fans are beginning to grow tired of Big Ed’s brand of awkwardness.
Steven Johnston
Steven has made many viewers uncomfortable with his strange behavior, and at times it’s made them concerned for his Russian fiancé Alina. While fans love to joke about his weirdness, Steven has been called too immature for Alina—despite being five years her senior. Steven’s behavior often crosses the line from entertaining to way too cringey, and fans are hoping he departs the franchise.
Angela Deem
From her awkward solo Instagram dance parties to her raucous laughter, many fans find Angela to be embarrassing. She seems to purposefully do wild and outlandish things to keep people talking about her, and it often borders on grating. Since she’s no longer appearing on a current season of the franchise, Angela is doing anything to remain relevant, and it’s making fans uncomfortable.
Colt Johnson
Colt has always been extremely cringey to fans, which is something he seems to lean into sometimes. In the past, he’s embraced his criticisms and done things like wearing racy speedos on the beach, knowing how fans will likely respond. However, he seems to have gotten less awkward after marrying Vanessa, and now Colt’s mom Debbie is the one who makes fans cringe every week on The Single Life.
Danielle Jbali
Though her heart is usually in the right place, it’s hard to not get embarrassed watching Danielle make poor relationship and dating decisions on the show. Her relationship with husband Mohamed crumbled on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? and then on The Single Life, her attempts at dating were unsuccessful and it was difficult to watch for some viewers. However, Danielle keeps up a positive attitude and doesn’t let her awkwardness get to her too much.
Like with any reality TV show, on the 90 Day Fiancé franchise shows, sometimes embarrassing and cringey behavior is the most compelling, so it’s no surprise that the network has cast several stars over the years who personify exactly that kind of behavior. These cast members’ may make the audience groan with embarrassment, but at least they’re still TV stars.
