Netizens react to 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 5 cast member Mary's lie

Before Brandan moved to the Philippines to meet Mary, the couple maintained a long-distance relationship where they were always chatting via video calls. Furthermore, the couple was even making video calls while asleep out of fear related to cheating and general insecurity.

During his talk with Mary's friends, Brandan explains how he often gets jealous of her hanging out with her male friends. According to him,

“When she went to the beach with you guys, there’s like no service. So I can’t be on the phone and you guys are just having fun while I’m just, like, not … she would tell me, so I don’t like, overthink. We don’t hide secrets.”

At this juncture, Mary's friend tells him that she would often unplug Wi-Fi just to hang out with them, and she would sometimes turn off her phone as well.

Brandan confronted Mary about this, to which she replied how important her friends are to her. Following the release of this episode, fans took to social media to share their reactions, with many rebuking Mary for her actions and simultaneously calling the pair's relationship dynamic "unhealthy" and "toxic."

The two 23-year-olds aren't exactly known for their trustworthiness with one another. Their relationship has been marred by envy, insecurity, and serious trust issues thus far.
