Earlier, we saw in a 90 Day Fiancepreview clip how nervous Benjamin was when he was about to make the trip to Kenya. He was teaching a class, and even his students were genuinely concerned for him. But now, he is in Kenya. But before he and Akinyi can be together, they have to get her brother and father’s approval. Not to mention, the expensive bride price he has to pay for having Akinyi’s hand is marriage. And the TLC cameras will be right there to document it all.
Moreover, Akinyi’s culture doesn’t really approve of Ben being a divorced father. Also, Akinyi is slowly beginning to regret being on ’90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way’. Let’s take a look.
‘90 Day Fiance: The Other Way’ Akinyi’s Dad Refused To Meet Benjamin
When Ben went to meet Akinyi’s dad, he refused to see him. At that time, she made it clear that they won’t be able to be together without her family’s blessing. Akinyi waited for her father for hours, but he didn’t show up. She left from there and told Ben that her brother said something that deeply upset her. She also told him that she wants to be alone for some time. Ben told the cameras that he came from across the other end of the world to be with Akinyi, and she wants him to leave her alone.
Moreover, she is not telling Ben what’s going on, and tat’s even more frustrating for him. It hurts him that she doesn’t want to be with him. He said that it’s definitely not okay. But at this point, he doesn’t have much of choice.
‘90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way’ Akinyi Is Facing Regrets
Akinyi posted on her Instagram story, “I am slowly regretting this.” Well, if you ship Akinyi and Benjamin, it doesn’t sound good! Fans think both Akinyi and Benjamin are nice. But they might not be suited for one another. On the other hand, the more likely possibility is that Akinyi regrets being on the show. Relationships can be as hard as it is. But having a new relationship portrayed on TV is taking it to a whole new level.
Akinyi blames 90 Day Fiance producers for making her family look bad. She calls her culture beautiful and states that they are very welcoming people. However, she can’t control what they show on TV. She continues to state that they are portraying Ben as an innocent American whom her family is treating badly. Akinyi then proceeds to call out Ben because he didn’t defend her family publically. She has been receiving a lot of hate from fans lately.
Do you think they are still together? Did Akinyi’s family give them their blessing? Even if they did, how will Ben arrange the bride price considering that he has already spent a lot on the trip? Let us know in the comments below. Stay tuned for more 90 Day Fiance updates.
Ben is being used so extremely, The one thing I will never understand WHY ARE PEOPLE SO DESPERATE & DUMB THAT THEY GO ON LINE AND THINK THEY MET “” THE LOVE OF THEIR LIFE “ they have no idea who their taking to & not only that but it could be very dangerous, by if Ben was Smart he’d get on the next Airplane ✈️ & get back to the US!
I agree! He needs to get out of there!
There is no one to blame here. You cannot use U.S. criteria to judge their culture. I think the passive way they protect their family is really sweet.
That Kenya girl is a nasty person treating the guy the way she does.Its NOT TLC its YOU AND YOUR FAMIY.You and Ben NEED to go your separate ways. Jenny go back to the States and ask for your job, go buy a car and stay with your daughter or go to your home you left. Sharing MY husband or man is something I will not do, your a fool if you do.The USA is a beautiful place to live.
