From Screenrant: This video tells us every reason not to buy it: There will be a 90-Day talent portion, where Shaun touts Big Ed, who's "feeling himself," and Annie & David's cooking show. Angela has a recurring segment - Angbush, where she ambushes other cast members. TLC is promoting and rewarding her violence. Shaun Robinson is the host of the Bare Alls. She suddenly acts like she actually watched the show. Oh - and Angela is her favorite. They advertise hearsay their crew learned a week after as new revelation on the Sumit & Jenny break-in that was already irrelevant last season. Shaun doesn't actually confirm, but she leads the interviewer to believe, that Yazan's parents will appear and give their side of the story about their fight with Brittany. The drama in that fight was that the mother refused to appear on camera, due to religious reasons. I guess she pimped out her lifelong beliefs for the low price of a TLC appearance fee that didn't appeal to her before. Shaun kept on hyping that there will be content that they weren't allowed to show "because of the rules," but they're already on cable TV.

Others said waaay nastier stuff than me (my comment was "Mommy and son time is so important.") and boy did I hear it: "Wow you must be a mean, nasty and miserable person!"

Christina January 19, 2021 Share January 19, 2021 Jenny and Sumit had a Bares All episode and someone on Reddit summarized it. Quote Jenny and Sumit on Bares All: behind the scenes footage & inside interview w/ their producer! I wish I could post a video of the entire segment, SO much happened & the show was finally worth watching! It started with a virtual update, they are still together in India. Jenny has so far, been able to apply for monthly extensions due to the pandemic. His parents were also shown remotely. Sumit’s parents once again stated that Jenny initially came to their house under false pretenses as his FB friend. Jenny then challenged that to their face & said that it wasn’t true & they knew right from the start that she was his girlfriend. They didn’t have much of a rebuttal. Sumit was suspiciously quite. Their producer was then brought out & Shaun asked him what he believed was the truth (drum roll...). He said that he believed that Sumit’s parents DID know from the start that Jenny & Sumit were together. But it all became too real & too much for them. He believed that their shame & embarrassment led them to somewhat burry the truth in their subconscious. They reinvented their own version & even believe it themselves. [Keep in mind that the producer has also spent a great deal of time with his parents & convinced them to be on the show. He knows them pretty well.] Next they showed behind the scenes footage from when the film crew first arrived after Jenny found out that Sumit was married. Jenny was physically shaken and distraught. I know there have been rumors that she actually knew all along that he was married. After everything they showed, I’m convinced that she knew absolutely nothing (or she really deserves an Emmy). The producer also felt completely shocked, betrayed & baffled when he found out. They also showed a Skype call that Jenny had with the producer right after it happened. He asked her if she had any idea that he was actually married. She said the only thing that she knew was that about 2 years prior, Sumit told her that his parents were trying to force him into an arranged marriage, but he was trying to get out of it. She said the next time they spoke, she’s asked if he was getting married and he said “I don’t know what to tell you.” Jenny hung up on him & immediately broke things off. 2 months later, curiosity got the better of her & she was wondering if he had gotten married. When she called, he was at work, but was so happy to hear from her, he cried in front of everyone. She asked if he ever got married & he said “No” & they’ve been together ever since. I wish everyone could have seen this, because it was really eye opening & really cleared a lot up. I had already tried to remain somewhat neutral, because I know that editing can be extremely biased & we really didn’t know anything for sure. But Jenny got a tremendous amount of hate during this last season & I feel like a lot of it wasn’t fair (especially now). I’ll still never understand being with someone so much younger, I find it creepy and gross. So I’m not giving her a total pass, but I don’t think she’s nearly as bad as many of us thought she was. 7 3 Link to comment

Meh, so the producer thinks the parents knew all along? I’m sorry was the producer there years ago when this actually happened? No. The producer may have been around a lot once they decided to pimp themselves out to TLC but not when they actually met and didn’t Jenny say at the beginning she told Sumit’s parents that she was a FB friend? Sounds like Jenny wants some damage control and TLC is providing it. So yeah, still Team Sumit’s Parents. And Jenny can go peddle her “twue wuv” story elsewhere. 3 9 Link to comment

hookedontv January 19, 2021 Share January 19, 2021 In my opinion, this doesn't change the fact that Jenny is a whiney, needy, older lady with her head in the clouds with all her fantasies of Romeo and Juliet, star crossed lovers, gave everything up for love and is devastated at every turn and is shocked at the blows she's been dealt. Jenny is "in love" with a guy who doesn't work and expects her to pay for the apartment, food, living expenses. She hasn't planned anything out except for showing back up in India, not even sure he would truly be getting a divorce. This is why I don't like Jenny (hate is too strong a word). Jenny is dumb. Don't be like Jenny. 17 Link to comment

Jenny is an idiot. I wish the parents would give their blessing, because I want to see how Sumit would weasel his way out of the marriage, because I don't think he has any desire to be married to her.

CrazyInAlabama April 8, 2021 Share April 8, 2021 (edited) I suspect there's a large backlog of visas from India. Also, he wasn't eligible for a K-1, because he was married until he got divorced on the show (if they were telling the truth, and I'm not betting on that). Also, if they marry, then that's another visa situation, and I doubt some guy who works in a call center is all that needed here. Even with a visa, wouldn't he would have to get a green card, or some other work permit (I don't know much about it)? Jenny is supposed to be on social security only, so she probably wouldn't qualify to sponsor him, and if anyone else in the family would agree to do that, and that's a big obligation. Where would they live here, on the daughter and her wife's pull out couch? He might not want to try to come here anyway, not everyone does. Their relationship might be a big deal in India, and even without the parents issues with Jenny's age, whether married or not, it would still be a big deal in the U.S. Edited April 8, 2021 by CrazyInAlabama 1 2 Link to comment

When we got married we considered marrying there and bringing him over on a spousal visa. At the time, though, there was a huge discrepancy in processing time and cost.

As long as he didn't stay past 90 days then he was fine to enter. It was still legal for him to do this while the visa was processing. When our number came through he just had to return to England for the interview and medical exam. The spousal visa was another matter. Once we applied for it he couldn't travel to the US until the visa processed. That was taking a year. Since I was pregnant at the time, it was important for him to be here. The fees are pretty comparable now but, ironically, it's MUCH harder to get a spousal visa. The parameters and requirements are not the same.

The K1 visa is not an immigration visa. It's actually a non-immigrant visa. So, processing shouldn't take as long. There is also something called the K3 the visa (which is for spouses of US Citizens). The K1 and K3 are quicker to process because a lot of the immigration paper work (adjustment of status) is done *after* the foreign fiance/spouse arrives. I believe not many K3s are being processed these days though... so most spouses go through the CR1/IR1 process. One of the benefits of the CR1/IR1 visa is you're able to work as soon as you arrive in the States. You need to wait for work authorization when you go through the K1 visa. . . 1 hour ago, mamadrama said: When we got married we considered marrying there and bringing him over on a spousal visa.

At the time it was also based on what nationality you were and whether or not you were able to travel freely to the US before you applied. Since my fiance at the time was from a Visa Waiver country then traveling to the US while waiting for the K1 was fine. The spousal visa left zero room for travel to the US, though. Once you applied you had to wait and wouldn't be allowed into the country until you had visa in hand. However, this was in 2007. Many things have changed since then. In fact, the fees themselves have almost tripled. That's one of the main reasons why we married almost as soon as he landed. We knew the fees were goi g to increase in a few weeks and we wanted to get in under the wire. You'll definitely want to check on ant travel restrictions. Each visa tends to have their own rules and they can change at any time. In any case, Jenny and Sumit are better off marrying there and bringing him over as a spouse. They wouldn't have to worry about a separation because she's already in India. They could just wait it out and then travel here together. I can't see an incentive of getting a K1 in their situation. I'd have done the same, just stay there until our spousal visa came through, but I had to return to the US. I'd lived abroad for years and my British visa, which gave me access to the NHS, was set to expire. I could've stayed on as a tourist for awhile, but I was 8 months pregnant and needed medical care. 4 Link to comment
SunnyBeBe April 24, 2021 Share April 24, 2021 (edited) The covid conditions are beyond horrific in India now. I’m not a Jenny fan, but still feel for her if she’s trapped in that situation. I wonder if she’s had access to a vaccine. Sure hope so. Edited April 25, 2021 by SunnyBeBe 3 Link to comment

True, and not to be totally heartless, but I think each and every one of us has been thrown off kilter by the pandemic. It's beyond what any of us could have imagined. 9 Link to comment

My husband’s coworker is trapped in India due to new flight restrictions. He went there to bury his parents. The situation there is beyond horrific. I hope they are okay. 4 Link to comment

But I am thankful as well as I don't have little kids at home as well. The paperwork, in sped, is overwhelming at times. Covid really knocked everyone off their feet. 7 Link to comment

Early in the pandemic, Sumit and Jenny wore lanyards with a cardboard-looking thing that was supposed to kill germs in the air around them.

CrazyInAlabama April 28, 2021 Share April 28, 2021 (edited) I wonder if Jenny thought ahead, and bought travel health insurance? Because if not, she's not insured during a pandemic. The health care system is collapsing under the massive numbers of patients. When other countries are air lifting oxygen tanks, and sending vaccines, you know it's bad. I can't believe they ever believed that garbage about those lanyards with the cardboard on them would stave off a deadly disease. Edited April 28, 2021 by CrazyInAlabama 1 3 Link to comment
