Amid their debut season, the couple were called “drug addicts” and “meth heads.” Wayne and Holly also faced backlash when he criticized the way Holly dressed during the July 31 episode. While some viewers accused the plumber of being “abusive,” others called out Holly for tolerating his comments.
In addition to slamming fans, Wayne also slammed the network for editing their scenes to portray them in a negative light.
“[It’s] what the show does. They make you look like lunatics. That’s why they want you here because they just care about their pockets. It’s all they want,” he said. “So you know what, guys, if you want to, judge us. If it makes you feel better or it makes you feel like you’ve done a good deed, then judge people, talk bad about people so you can feel better.”
Can 90 Day Fiance’s Wayne Afford a New House for Holly?
Following her arrival, Holly and her mother, Judy, feared for Holly’s safety while living in South Africa. Wayne’s house has been burglarized multiple times in the past and they felt the only suitable solution would be moving into a gated community.
Holly made an appointment for the couple to look at a gated community during the August 21 episode and it was clear she was unaware that Wayne couldn’t afford to live there.
“I don’t have any money save ‘cause I wasn’t planning to buy a house yet,” he told the U.S. native. In a separate interview with producers, he added, “If Holly realizes that there’s absolutely no way that I’m gonna be able to afford to give her what she wants, I’m thinking will she be there emotionally for me?”
In a later conversation about his finances, Wayne revealed his work has been slow and also dropped a bombshell that he invested $40,000 into cryptocurrency. While Wayne felt the investment could have them set for life, Holly was upset because that was their honeymoon money.
“I feel like you should’ve included me with that because, like, I gave up a lot to be here,” Holly replied. “You hurt someone that loves you so much and someone that sacrificed everything.”
The business owner opened up about his money problems, explaining he didn’t think Holly would want to be with him if she knew he was struggling financially.
“When I was dating Holly, Holly told me that she would never be with someone that’s financially struggling,” he explained during the August 28 episode. “So she’s just living in the dark, not knowing what’s happening.”
Prior to walking down the aisle, Holly also learned that Wayne was behind in his payments, making her question her trust in her future partner.
“I feel really hurt that he concealed his financial situation from me,” the hairstylist told producers in an interview during the September 11 episode. “The days leading up to my wedding should be the best time of my life and it’s not because of all this.”
Wayne admitted that his financial situation made him feel “less of a man,” but was determined to prove himself to her.
“At the end of the day, if I’ve got to work three jobs to support you, that’s what I’ll do,” he reassured her. Despite his promises, the U.S. native wasn’t fully confident in his abilities as a provider.
“I didn’t know he was in debt. He hid that from me. So, finding out that he’s in a lot of debt is a huge shock to me,” she said in a private interview. “It makes me concerned; does he not handle money correctly? Is he bad with money?” Both pushed through their anxieties, however, and tied the knot during the October 2 episode.
