I seriously doubt when Russ and Paola (?) were dating, modeling lingerie ever came into the equation. I think her friend is right; she used him for a green card. In the interim she developed feelings for him. Her modeling career isn't what most of us think of when we hear a modeling. The town home they are renting is beautifully furnished and I too noticed the live orchids everywhere. They had no money for their Oklahoma mortgage and couldn't sell the house. They seem to live quite well. This was her first job and he's been unemployed for a year.
Danielle's daughters, the one in particular, seem so mature and level headed. If nothing else, at least by being on this show and airing her story, the children have a decent roof over their heads. Danielle does need serious help. I do fear that her story will continue on her own show. The public loves those TLC train wreck shows.
I cannot help but wonder how much of Chantel's and Pedro's wedding story was staged for this show. I have little doubt TLC paid the wedding. These two do not have 2 nickels to rub together yet she had a beautiful gown and venue. Who paid for all the flights, hotel rooms, car rentals, food, flowers, and so on?
The after show looks to be a firestorm.

Lulu - you are so right - next week's show looks like a firestorm.
Lots of people walking off the set.

@sunshine 919 and everyone else....please forgive me on the names as I am terrible and when referring to most things in the forum I often have to go searching to reference people's names, so I describe them.
You are right about that girl. She did say from day one she wanted to be 'taken care of....have nice things...etc'. She's never made a secret of what she expects. He seems like a looser anyway. I saw the part where he went with his friend to get the bracelet. I didn't see if he bought it (couldn't stand watching it).

@sunshine 919 I am so glad I read your post. I went back and got the show on again, and there it was. I didn't see this show at all. I don't know what happened. But it recorded. I don't know what happened. Also, when my DIL and I were texting and she said "oh boy, balloons" I didn't know what she was talking about so I just ignored it. I guess we were watching different shows???
Anyway, thanks again for mentioning it. I am saving it to watch later (one of my guilty pleasures)...... Am now with CNN watching the eclipse.

@mousiegirl Yes! I've been hearing/reading that (about him MAYBE in Tunisia). However, most things just say something about 'he's not showing up anywhere'.
If I were him I'd be worried with the way things are here about coming into the country, he wouldn't be able to get back in (were he to leave).... He's so full of himself he probably doesn't even think of that.
Out of all of them that couple and the beautiful American American girl makes me sick to my stomach. I only watched enough to see if she actually married him and it looks like she did! So hard to believe it. I mean look at her! She amazing in looks and everything. She comes from a good family who love her so much, yet ......(anyway)....see...I'm getting worked up! Ha!
Can you imagine being related to some of these Americans? We have a lot of (let's call them trouble makers, etc) in our family but thank goodness we don't have any of that...
The couple where he's from Oklahoma seems like she might really love him but thinks she's going to be...what? a model? Does she have any idea how many people want to be models and actually achieve that? Obviously no...
I'm sure the QVC models make good money, but most of them have other jobs. I know some of them are also things like nurses, etc. I think maybe Jackie and a few don't work in another job, but many do.
Anyway, I think she wants to be a print model. I kept hearing her say she was in a video....whatever.

You are welcome I am watching msnbc. I think we have a partial one where I am but it is really smokey here due to fires.

I think only one couple will still be together...The gal that has T.S.and her husband.
08-21-2017 03:43 PM
@cowboy sam I agree with you. He and she seem to work together well. I hope they are able to stay together. The other's.....well....umm...I don't think so.

I did not realize Paola and Russ are from season 1. (although back then she was listed as Pao) That being true, they've been together a long time.
Most viewers seem to side with Chantel. She lied to her family for 85 of the 90 days. Clearly she is/was a party girl. Whether or not Pedro's family sent him to America to take advantage of her, who knows. (it wouldn't be the first time an impoverished family thought the USA was their ticket out of poverty)
The chicken feet incident could have been over by saying, no thank you, we do not eat chicken feet. There (obviously) was other food. Chantel's family accepted an invitation to Pedro's grandmother's house. They knew it was in the boondocks. Their refusal to at least meet Grandma WAS rude.
I've read Chantel and Pedro both used fictitious names. She applied for the show because she wants to be an actress. (if so, she needs a VOICE coach ASAP) As far as I can see both "Baby" Chantel and "Baby" Pedro deserve each other and their respective families.
Wiki has some interesting updates on all the couples. Surprisingly, most are still together, some even have families.

Anyone remember Melanie and Devar from last season or the one before that? Well she's pregnant. I'm pretty sure they are going to be on a new season soon. I read that he's going to school to do underwater welding and she's a traveling nurse. Doesn't leave much time for a baby now does it? I wonder who cares for her son while she's gone? Him I suppose. Or her sister may help. I still don't think her sister likes Devar.
