90 Day Fiance couple Laura and Birkan have sparked controversy from the start. Friends and family warned Laura about Birkan, but she chose to ignore them. Now, Laura has finally opened her eyes. Birkan used his charm and intimacy to distract Laura. But Birkan’s controlling nature totally blindsided Laura. She can no longer ignore how red the flags are.

In her confessional, she states that she knew Birkan did not like Michal but didn’t expect him to be a control freak. Laura feels hurt and does not know what to do.
On 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, Laura learns of Birkan’s story about how he got so much debt. She also learns how he earns his living – gambling. This revelation shocks Laura, and she is left thinking whether a relationship with him is the right decision. She says, “This is really serious”, and that she “should just pull the plug and go home now”.
Birkan’s problem with gambling started after his business went bankrupt due to COVID. He tells Laura that he tried to work daily wage jobs, but he was paid low wages. So he planned to gamble and pay it back. Laura asks him how often he gambles, and he answers, “Whenever he has money.” This is a classic sign of a gambling addiction. Fans think Laura also knows that this gambling as a profession is because Birkan is addicted to gambling.

But now that she knows, she doesn’t think it will be something so bad. No one can blame her for wanting a way out of the relationship.
