"Poor Julia. If she wants kids, I hope she can have them. Whatever that looks like for them," a fan wrote.
"Julia’s fear of having the second opinion confirm the first doctor’s opinion is so valid," another fan commented.
"Oh…. Now Julia and Brandon’s child issue is making more sense. I can understand why she is scared. Don’t know if they are still together but I hope they find a solution that is suitable for both," a netizen tweeted.

Many 90 Day: The Last Resort fans sympathized with Julia, hoping she could find a solution soon.

"Poor Julia I can imagine hearing you can't have kids from a doctor would scare you into not wanting a second opinion only to have your worst nightmare confirmed," a user reacted.
"Oh poor Julia.. Unable to have children because of sickness.. I wish she'd have told Brandon sooner. It's not like they can't adopt. If I physically could have taken care of children, I'd have adopted," a person commented.
"Awww Julia. We love you," another fan wrote.
"Kudos to Jasmine for saying to Julia that she will be an amazing mom some day," one user posted.

"Brandon is being a bit of a d**k He needs to be more understanding Julia's fertility problem is clearly quite traumatic for her," another netizen commented.

"I'm so scared to be in reality" — 90 Day: The Last Resort's Julia hesitates to get a second opinion

While commenting on their performance during the rowing challenge, Brandon said that they could use their teamwork skills to resolve their relationship issues, particularly the task of being unable to have children. Upon hearing that, Julia became anxious, saying it was a "painful" topic of discussion.

When the therapists requested the 90 Day: The Last Resort star to elaborate, she said:

"So, when I say, like, I don't want kids... And when I say I don't want because I'm so scared to be in reality. So, I can't have a kids."

She revealed that two years ago, she visited Russia and got all fertility tests done. The doctors told her she could not have children because of a certain illness. However, Brandon stated they did not know that for sure, which was why he requested her to get a second opinion in America.

While speaking to the cameras, Julia expressed hesitation regarding a second opinion because she did not want the doctors to confirm her fear. While she worried about the consequences of her fertility issues, Brandon elaborated on the importance of having children.

Watching the 90 Day: The Last Resort cast member get emotional, her co-star Jasmine said:

"And one thing is for certain, mark my words, one way or the other, you're gonna be an amazing mom."
