TLC is under fire again, and this time, it is more about the scripted drama. 90 Day Fiance fans are lashing out at the producer for crossing the line and creating an “unsafe” place for the celebrities. They accused the network of pushing people into dark places with its tone-deaf behavior. The controversy exploded after the host pushed Stevi Nichole to open up about her sexual orientation. Over the months, fans followed her relationship drama with her Iranian partner, Mahdi.
However, the majority of her storyline focused on the TLC star’s sexuality. Mahdi wanted to know whether his girlfriend was bisexual. But Stevi stood on her ground and refused to give any clear answers. She walked down the aisle with her husband and started a beautiful life with him. But why does TLC still want her to disclose her sexuality? What made fans angry?
90 Day Fiance: Stevi Praises Mahdi For Supporting Her Passion For ‘Nude Painting”
Stevi Nichole kept many things from Mahdi before he moved to America. The latter was completely shocked to learn about her passion for painting ‘nude women.’ He was unable to process everything because of his conservative upbringing. Hence, the 90 Day Fiance celeb began questioning her sexuality in Season 11. Fortunately, Mahdi accepted Stevi without pushing her too much about it. He even showed support for his wife’s passion with a sweet gesture.
Nichole uploaded an Instagram video to share her new corner. She always dreamed of having a quiet corner in her home where she could paint. So, Mahdi decided to fulfil her dream and chose a home where she could spend some time with herself. He stated, “I want you to have a space to paint.” Stevi was overwhelmed by her husband’s gesture to keep her dream alive.
90 Day Fiance Fans Slammed TLC For Pushing Stevi Too Much About Her Sexuality!
Stevi Nichole refused to open up about her sexual orientation on the show. She faced several struggles with Mahdi during their journey. Fortunately, the latter respected his wife’s decision and tied the knot without pressing her too much about it. However, fans were surprised when the network asked Stevi about her sexuality again and again in the Tell All.
A Redditor slammed the host, Shaun Robinson, for pushing the topic too hard and making people uncomfortable. She even asked every female on he cast if they ever kissed any woman in their life. Stevi refused to speak on the matter twice. Hence, a Redditor pointed out, “Stevi was so unproblematic that they had to create fake drama that does not matter.”
The fan felt she didn’t owe anyone an explanation about her sexuality. Several 90 Day Fiance viewers felt the discussion quickly went from inquisitive to invasive. They lashed out at Shaun for being so insensitive towards the cast members. One fan said, “It perpetuates the myth that bisexual people are constantly looking for someone of the same sex, no matter who they are with.”
Another user felt the host shouldn’t have pushed Nichole about her sexual orientation when her husband wasn’t asking anything. Others on X accused TLC of making people uncomfortable and pushing them into dark places. A different fan added, “The #TellAll is not a safe space.” Keep coming back to TV Season & Spoilers for more updates on Stevi and Mahdi’s marriage.
