In the second episode of Dubai Bling season 3, Farhana's son Aydin had a playdate with LJ's daughters. After Farhana's GoldPesa event, which LJ missed, they organized a painting activity for the kids.
During their chat, Farhana shared that she felt overwhelmed as a single mom to Aydin, who was diagnosed with autism at age two. She described Aydin as a special gift from God but explained how his challenges and issues with her ex-husband Heroies were affecting her.
"When Aydin was two years old, we found out that he's on the spectrum. He's a special boy. Of course, there are so many challenges he faces, challenges I face as a mom, especially as a single mom," Farhana said.

LJ praised Farhana as an "amazing mom," which touched Farhana's heart. She became emotional and teary-eyed, sharing that she sometimes struggled with her feelings. Her son, noticing her distress, comforted her, telling her not to cry.

She felt that their actions were hurtful and affected her work and collaborations. LJ offered words of encouragement, telling Farhana how much she inspired others. LJ admired Farhana as a hardworking single mom and cherished their friendship. Farhana confided in LJ on Dubai Bling about how Zeina and Safa's behavior impacted her life and work.
"I have my own problems. I don't need some people, like Zeina and Safa, come and destroy me and put me down and make me look like I'm nothing," Farhana said.
Farhana confided in LJ about how Safa and Zeina's actions affected her work and collaborations. LJ asked Farhana if she thought Safa would talk about her if Safa was happy in her own life. Farhana shared her thoughts, and LJ expressed that she felt like Safa had been trying to steal Farhana's contacts and social-climb.
An emotional Farhana felt hurt by Safa's actions, which made her feel belittled. In a confessional, Farhana expressed her desire to provide the best life for her son and wished others could understand her motivations before judging her.
"I just want the best for my son. So whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it for him. And I wish the world can understand this before judging me," Farhana expressed.
Later, Farhana mentioned her conversation with Jwana on Dubai Bling and expressed her desire to fix things between Jwana and LJ. However, LJ downplayed the issue, saying there was nothing to fix. Farhana disagreed, feeling that LJ was not being truthful about her past closeness with Jwana.
"There's nothing to fix. Me and Jwana, we know each other socially from a distance. 'Hi, hi,' that's it. We don't have something, like, to talk about." Dubai Bling's LJ stated.
LJ explained that people can drift apart, and that didn't mean anything was wrong. In a confessional, LJ stated that she had no interest in discussing her past with Jwana further, believing that sometimes silence is better than words.
All the episodes of the third season of Dubai Bling can be streamed on Netflix.
