After Ken drove all the way to the small town of Mexico to be with his love, this couple is figuring out their life together.
Kenneth Continues Updating His Fans About The Relationship Status
Despite their NDA with the network, the couple tries to drop subtle hints indicating the development of their relationship. For instance, Kenneth, who was a father of three, has now updated his Instagram bio to ‘father of 4.’ The last Kenneth shared a picture with Armando on September 16 after the two visited the vineyard.

90 Day Fiance: Sneak Peek Into Recent Episode, Armando Coming Out To His Family
In the latest episode, we see Armando and Kenneth meeting the former’s family after their engagement. Armando is visibly anxious before seeing his family. He fears rejection and freaks out. However, his partner is calm and asks him to be patient as well. When they reach the destination, there are a few people lined up there. The fans might recall that it’s been a short while after Armando came out to his family as gay. So his anxiety is quite natural. When Armando’s mother, Virginia, spots him, she’s happy. However, she later confesses that she was uncomfortable to see her son with a man. Moreover, she revealed that her husband was absent from the scene because he was tired.
It is clear that Armando’s parents do suffer from homophobia. But if they can acknowledge this, they can surely accept their son and his partner because there could be no right excuses for one’s homophobia.
