90 Day Fiancé Heartbreak: The Split Fans Never Wanted To See — And The Dark Reason Behind It

After five years together, Julia and Brandon, who met on 90 Day: The Last Resort, have faced ongoing challenges: Brandon wants children, Julia wants boundaries with her in-laws, and they are hoping to bring her family to America. By the Tell All, they were the only couple still together, but Happily Ever After? has tested their relationship. Julia’s parents’ visit was meant to celebrate their life as a couple, but the first night erupted into a massive fight, ending with Brandon storming out with his parents. What does this mean for this couple on the show?

Julia Clashes With In-Laws, Brandon Storms Out

Brandon’s parents, Betty and Ron Gibbs, have always struggled with boundaries and this season is no different. Julia is excited to bring her parents abroad and show them their lifestyle as a couple. She even warns her in-laws beforehand that there won’t be much space once her parents arrive. Yet, after spending hours driving back and forth to the airport, and hours on the plane in the case of Julia’s parents, they are greeted by Brandon’s eager parents. Everyone is exhausted from their trips and Julia lost her voice playing translator. Julia is clearly unhappy and while she tries to explain why she was upset, it is clear her emotions are getting the best of her.

While she might not have had the best attitude, Brandon’s parents were offended by her actions and stormed out. Brandon, equally upset with his wife, because he didn’t like how Julia “treated” his parents, stormed out behind them. Although Julia clearly communicated before and during the events, it seems that the Gibbs had ganged up on the Russian native. Now it seems like the 90 Day Fiancé couple has reached an all-time low, especially with Julia threatening to change the locks.

‘90 Day Fiancé’ Horror: Brandon Storms Out As In-Laws Humiliate Julia

In the past, the 90 Day Fiancé star’s parents were labeled as franchise master manipulators. Julia and Brandon’s parents struggled to get along from the very moment she learned she would live and work on their farm, as well as abide by their strict rules. However, Betty and Ron refused to respect the couple’s privacy and independence as a new couple. In fact, Betty even went so far as to humiliate her son for having a hickey, despite them being engaged and well into their 20s.

Living together was causing too much turmoil, so Brandon and Julia finally signed a lease, but that only set Betty off. She wasn’t ready to lose her son and, in a fit of tears, she cried that Julia was the one manipulating Brandon. Ron was equally irate, screaming at the young couple for having the audacity to move out. Fans saw past the tears and yells quickly — it seemed they cared more about free farm work.
