wow, what a tangled web.  I will say that its possible, just possible, that the "modelling" pictures were used for other purposes.  But she sure does look so pretty in them, if they were used how I think they might have been used I could see someone wanting her to look as pretty as possible.  She also looks happy with that other guy Jaime....who I think is sort of cute!  I'm trying to access the link in the story to see what these various modelling jobs were.

 

I'll never believe that the magic of Dani/Mo was fake.

Right. Just because she's sweet doesn't mean she's not straight up out of her mind right now.

I can see Mark thinking "Oh boy, this great show will showcase my love story with Nikki, and my business, and people will be calling me all day long to rent pianos!"

What I'm hearing is that people are calling him names, harassing him for being a nutjob, etc. It's done more harm than good. And there are rumors that his daughter Elise is who put out the links and stories about Nikki's modeling career. I have no idea what's truth or fiction at this point.

I am sure that long before any 90 Day show, that Mark was and still is the kind of person , who when shop clerks, food servers or anyone who has had the displeasure of spending more than one minute with him , runs in the opposite direction and quickly puts up the closed sign.

 

Everything about him is like Godzilla's fingernails on a blackboard.

There is something not right about her too.

I think the whole confusing thing with her multiple profiles, references to ex husband, modeling pics, etc goes like this:

 

1.  Professional photos done in Cebu in 2014.

2.  Reference to husband "Jaimie Jamarillo" and the picture of her with the older guy on Pinterest are both exes (if not the same ex)  Jaimie was never a husband, but an ex-boyfriend and they just referred to each other as "hubby/wifey".

3.  FB profile "Nikki Ross Gervise (Mediano)" which now seems to belong to a male, is apparently her brother.  Not sure why he took over her facebook profile instead of creating his own.

4.  She has a second FB profile "Nikki Mediano" which used to have a picture including Mark, but has since changed to just her face and torso.  Only one friend listed.

4.  Explore Talent is an account she created later and simply features the professional shots she had done in Cebu.  It is an agency based in LA but she is not.

 I think she just had the pics done in Cebu and put them online just to see if she got any offers

 

I have posted most of this before....the pic of her and guy with glasses is her Pinterest profile

He may not even be Jaime - many Filipinos have latin names

Jaime may be a young guy

I thought glasses guy looked like he was not from Phiipines

now that I see profile on explore...maybe it is him? Says 31 Hispanic from Philly..no picture

I would not blame Elise at all 

For those who think Nikki sincere with Mark...how did she find time for Jaimie?

Jaime is an ex.   Although Mark first met her when she was 16, however, it could have gotten more "serious" after she and Jaime broke up.  Or perhaps she broke up with Jaime to be with Mark.

From what I've been told (by a woman who was a Filipino online bride), most of the girls on the Filipino marriage sites are involved in more than one "exclusive" relationship.  They juggle a few and pick the one that can offer the most or proposes first.  The one I know married a high school friend of an ex of mine.  She had multiple guys on the string, but picked this one because he owned two houses, had a good job, and seemed harmless.  He was 46 and had never had a date.  They seem ok--she takes his credit card and buys stuff until he yells at her and cooks him massive amounts of artery-clogging and sugar-laden food although he has diabetes and high cholesterol.  I asked her once if she was trying to kill him and she winked at me.  I had to laugh.  At least she was age-appropriate, being 32.  I think they each got what they wanted, so it worked out all right.

If the point is to escape a situation asap, I think casting multiple irons into multiple fires makes sense.  Which would support that Mark may have been much nicer when he was "wooing" her and then changed once he actually got her here.

I went deep into Facebook and found Aleksandra's dad's page (BTW poor Aleksandra is somehow friends with Dani).

So before the world's most boring bachelor party, they at least had brunch and went horseback riding. I suppose that just showing the pizza and video games really drove home the point of the boringness of being Mormon compared to wild Russian parties/Prague.

When exactly did the show start filming? I just wonder how many old men Nikki tried to be with while being underage.

 

Nikki modeling, she couldn't model a Pledge can.

I believe I can comment on the social media and links on this page.  There is no rule that I need to have links to back up in my opinion here or anywhere on this site. This page is where people can come and share social media and links, however there is no rule prohibiting a person from commenting without sharing a social media or link.  So....I'll stay here and comment as I see fit.  Or, if I've misunderstood the rule, and I have to give a social media or link in order to post a comment here I'll wait for cooksdelight...the moderator to let me know.

 

I posted my comment here because this thread is labeled as "spoilers," so if I went to the Nikki thread with what I was discussing wouldn't I be ruining that thread?

Dr. Phil's thing now is exposing catfishers. He gets some lonely old woman on stage who has been sending her life savings in cereal boxes to Nigeria and acts like he's some kind of new age Columbo when he (his staff) tracks down the guy whose picture has been stolen. I can spare everybody the hour. He'll say the following: "a pancakes got two sides to it, I'm just an old country boy, and my son Jay and I wrote a new book. It's called the 20/20 diet." I guarantee he'll use that last plug on Beverly. He used it on a woman who'd just buried her mother and daughter.

Dr. Phil has done a lot of catfishing shows, but I don't think Devar can be classified that way.  Catfishers are usually someone pretending to be someone else who manipulates their victim into sending them money.... most of the time they never even meet.  Devar may end up being a user who takes advantage of Melanie, but can he really be classified as a catfisher?

Ooh! Is he going to talk about Meri Brown from *Sister Wives* and the raving nutjob who catfished her?

Yeah I know Devar's not a catfisher. My point is that Dr. Phil will treat this show like all his others with his repetitive sayings and his catch all formula for all his guests. He'll put a redundant timeline up on his new space age touch screen computer and calculate all the money Melanie has spent since meeting Devar. Then he'll read all their facebook posts and text messages out loud. Then offer Dr. On Demand to all of them and the 20/20 Diet book to Bev. His show is formulaic whether the guest is a catfish, habitual liar, victim of abuse, or morbidly obese circus clown. Edited by charmed1

did the diet book offer work on the circus clown?  ;)

I haven't watched it yet, but found this YouTube video posted by Noon or Kyle titled Loren and Kyle Read Mean Tweets It's 2 min 26 sec long. 

 

The things I really noticed in this clip were

 

1. Alexi isn't sitting next to Loren 

 

2. The guy sitting next to Loren is sitting really next to Loren

 

3. Alexi's facial hair looks awful

 

4. Alexi looks either bored, annoyed or just over it.  His mind looks like it is somewhere else entirely, but he is just going through the motions and trying to look like he is having a good time

I can't understand anything the guy next to Kyle is reading.

Loren over-emotes and moves her face too much. I don't care that she's not sitting next to Alexei, though. I try not to always cling to my husband in social settings. We're there to interact with people we don't see every day, and especially when we're with single friends, I try not to be a smug married.

I'm digging around on Twitter and thought I would post some of the cast links. I don't follow any of them, but they are public so you don't have to. If you don't have a Twitter account, the main page will just show the tweets made by that person, and the Tweets and Replies option near the top will let you read what they reply to others.

 

Kyle has posted some photos of something they did at the Thai temple recently, and I think some wedding photos that he had to hold onto until after the episode aired. I haven't looked at the others yet.

 

Kyle:  https://twitter.com/0h_my_buddha

Noon: https://twitter.com/NooNBajaree

Fernando: https://twitter.com/frendo28

Melanie: https://twitter.com/mbowers81 just peeked and it looks like there is a @MelanieBowers90 that may be a fake account. They are arguing with each over about which one is real, but it looks like 81 is because she has a location check-in of Manhattan, NY when they were filming the Tell All, and the other was still showing Pennsylvania. The 90 acct has several photos so must know her personally. I'm wondering if it was who was posting nude photos of her online.

Starcasm has a story about Mel and Devar appearing on Dr. Phil on 12/10. Apparently, Jason and Cassia approached the Dr. Phil show and were scheduled to appear, but TLC/Discovery talked the show into having Melanie and Devar instead.

Someone called Bring Me Your Torch says they can confirm that TLC blocked Jason & Cassia, then Melanie snips at Jason in the comments. https://twitter.com/BringMeYourTorc/status/674583399487574017

I agree, but Loren strikes me as a woman who doesn't always take the feelings of others into account and honestly, even if she was, I would expect people who just got married to at least sit together.  But I don't consider that smug married.  Now kissing each other all the time or something like that...perhaps that is a little smug married :)

I wonder if Alexei isn't shaving cleanly now that he is married? I didn't notice it until it was mentioned, but now I can't not notice that it looks shaggy.

 

Somewhere, hours ago and before I got lost in the deep dark recesses of z-list celebrity gossip,  I posted that I would find the Twitter feed where Jason took credit for Kyle getting paid $5k, and told him to save the money. The threads linked off to several different branches, if you will, and it got funny to me in my sleepiness that night. I can't get them to post flat, so I will link them separately, and you'll have to click the "View Other Replies" to get the full effect. 

 

This first link is where he claims credit for him getting paid $5k because season 2 set records. https://twitter.com/hitch4life/status/661017684390379520

 

The next two have some repeating tweets, but others are new. I'm posting both because there doesn't seem to be a way to get all responses in one thread. It will actually start you in the middle of the page, a few tweets down, and you'll have to scroll up to begin, and also click the "View Other Replies."  From what I gathered, Jason does a video review of the episodes and stated that Noon was just here for a better life, and called her uneducated. I did not watch the video, so that may be out of context. Kyle responds, and Jason defends himself because Cassia was called horrible names, and tells them they need to promote themselves.

bless your sweet soul for bringing me this drama.

 

I have to honestly say that it sounds like Jason has sour grapes.  Kyle and Noon were probably the most positively portrayed couple this season.  With the exception of the roaches they came off as likable.  Neither Jason, nor Cassia were likable on their season.   Jason was upset that people judged he and Cassia off of what was shown on TLC, yet he judged Noon based on what was shown on a show.  Turns out she has a bachelors degree, you would have thought the fact that Cassia was called awful names would have made Jason think for a minute before calling anyone....anything.

 

However, I think Jason is shameless in trying to promote his interests in leveraging his story into opportunity and I'm sure this is part of it.  If he can stay relevant by getting into it with couples from this season more people will be paying attention to him.  It seems a little shitty to me, but I think he would go away if they just refused to engage him.

I feel like they were asked to fill in. The article says "a much younger man (Devar)." He's only five or six years younger. The main story is about a woman who married a man 26 years older, so I'm not understanding where Mel and Devar fit into a show about marriage remorse and huge age differences. I could see the obvious: Mark and Nikki. (According to Jason, Mark hated how he was shown on TV.) Even the last season's favourite trainwreck that involved the girlses would've aligned more with the episode title. I'll be sure to tune in.

I actually think Carolina/Fernando would have been a much better fit for a May/December romance.  And Dr. Phil could have used all the footage to embarrass Fernando, and grilled him about living in his mom's house.  He could have used all his research tools for that.  Could have had Mama Fernando on the show too.  I honestly think it could have been much more drama than Mel/Devar/Bev and would have fit better with the show title.

 

Oh dear... just when we were starting to like Fernando...

I've never been a fan of Fernando's, but he will find a way to slither out of any accountability for this too.

Neither my DVR guide nor the commercials being aired today are showing anything about Bev, Melanie or Devar. It's some other couple with issues.

Directly from the Dr. Phil website

"Brenda says she fell in love with and married her husband, Don – despite their 26-year age gap. But soon after, she claims her “Prince Charming” turned “crazy” and “temperamental.” Is their age difference at the root of their issues? Then, Bev says she’s concerned for her sister, Melanie, who married her much younger man, Devar, after meeting him on a Jamaican vacation. Is Devar in it for love, or for a green card and money? And, Dr. Phil catches up with best-selling author Mitch Albom."

 

I just hope their segment isn't a brief one.

jujuebes

I'm watching it right now and they aren't even talking about the age difference.  They are talking about whether this is a scam or not and how much Melanie has spent and red flags over whether this is just for a green card.

It isn't on for me for another 1.5 hours. I hope they ask real questions like many people have on this forum instead of giving us info we have gotten from the show!
