ASHLEY and JAY
The 90 Day Fiance broadcast began with Ashley still reeling from the revelation Jay had been cheating on her. She found out he had created a secret profile on a dating app to meet other women, and she was completely devastated one week after their wedding ceremony."It's funny how one action can make you regret and want to take back a relationship, because if you can do something that quickly after you get married, you've been doing it -- you just didn't get caught," Ashley said.
"I asked him, 'What did I do? What were you missing to have to go out and find other women?' And he said he was bored."
Jay apparently invited some of the women he had met on a dating app to Ashley's home. She wanted to know how Jay could hurt her like that, and he insisted none of the ladies meant anything to him.
Jay confessed to cameras he didn't respect Ashley as much as he should have and it would never happen again.
Jay took full responsibility for his actions, but Ashley pointed out he never would have admitted anything unless he got caught.
Jay, however, told the cameras he was just "flirting" with a girl and messing around because she had messaged him. Jay did not own up to hooking up or having sex with anyone he had been in contact with. In fact, he was surprised Ashley might leave him over just a few alleged messages.
"She's going to have to get the police to come get me out, because I'm not leaving," Jay said in a confessional, adding that he loved her and wanted to fight for their relationship.

Ashley disclosed the woman Jay had been "flirting" with on the dating app was the total opposite of her, except for the fact they are both Caucasian. Ashley said the woman looked nothing like her, as she's much taller and only 18 years old.
"It's not so easy to [end things] when you are going through the K-1 visa process. I signed my life away to get him here, and ultimately, until he is back on Jamaican soil, I am still fully responsible for him as if he were a third child," Ashley explained.
Ashley was torn because she really loved Jay, but their trust was broken. She was angry, hurt and didn't know what to do or how they could move on together. Ashley admitted it "would be a serious road to recovery" for them.
Jay ended up telling Ashley that he didn't receive enough attention or love from her. He had left his home country for her and accused Ashley of being on her phone all night upon coming home from work.
Jay insisted he had made a mistake and would be willing to spend the rest of his life making it up to her. Jay also reminded Ashley that he never physically cheated on her with another woman.
Ashley said she needed some time apart from Jay and the best thing for her to do would be to walk away from him. She had invested so much time and money into their relationship, yet Ashley had "no idea" what the future held for them.
"Going through the 90 days and getting married, at this point, I regret every choice I made," Ashley told the cameras.

KALANI and ASUELU
Kalani and Asuelu woke up on their wedding day, and Asuelu said he couldn't wait to say "I do" to his future wife.Kalani revealed to Asuelu that she had told her sister, Kolini, she was pregnant. When Kalani had shared the news, Kolini immediately broke down into tears because she was a combination of surprised, upset and worried. Kalani hoped her sister's emotions wouldn't ruin her wedding day.
Kalani hoped that, one day, Kolini and Asuelu would like each other and not just tolerate each other. It was hard for Kalani that her sister wasn't entirely onboard with the wedding.
Kalani's father didn't know about the pregnancy, but she didn't want to give him another reason to doubt Asuelu. She therefore planned to hold back the news until after the wedding so he wouldn't attempt to call the day off and question Asuelu's motives even more.
Once Kalani put her lace gown on, she started to feel excited about being a bride. The couple eventually got married on a beautiful boat -- which Asuelu awkwardly called the "titanic" -- and Asuelu just hoped he'd be able to keep Kalani's pregnancy a secret.
Asuelu cried upon exchanging vows with Kalani, and his actions allowed her family to believe he really was getting married for the right reasons. Kalani also was touched to see her husband get so emotional.

ERIC and LEIDA
It was the day of Eric and Leida's wedding, and Leida was excited to get her hair done and look her absolute best.In the couple's relationship, Eric had doubts Leida being his wife was "achievable," but he was 100 percent ready to marry her. Eric hoped his children would show up for his big day, but he wasn't sure that was going to happen.
But 25 minutes prior to the ceremony, Eric realized his suit pants were missing. Leida couldn't believe her future husband forgot his pants on the biggest day of their lives. Since Eric didn't have time to go back to the apartment, he ran out to buy some trousers.
Leida was angry and noted that Eric always found a way to piss her off. She simply wasn't a happy bride.
Eric ended up having one daughter, Jenna at the wedding. His hope for the future was that he could work things out with Tasha and that he may one day have a blended family with everyone working as a team.

COLT and LARISSA
Colt and Larissa were also preparing to wed, and Colt was really looking forward to Larissa becoming his wife.Colt's mother Debbie never thought Larissa's 90 days in America would truly end in marriage, but Colt wanted to spend the rest of his life with Larissa.
Colt admitted to cameras he had invited John to their wedding although she had demanded he not show up following an explosive argument in Colt's home. Colt feared John's presence might anger Larissa, but it was important to him to have some of his family there.
Larissa couldn't say everything was perfect in her relationship with Colt, but she said she was "completely in love" with him. She was also glad to have made up with Debbie.
Larissa kind of anticipated John would be at the wedding since he was one of Colt and Debbie's only relatives in Las Vegas, but she was ready to attack on the off chance he would attack her on her big day.
John, his wife Lea and their child did end up going to the wedding, but he admitted he did not like Larissa and what she stands for -- and he thought Colt was making a big mistake. However, John was going to support his cousin regardless.
When Larissa saw John at her ceremony, she managed to keep calm and maintain her composure. Colt felt Larissa's control over her actions showed promise for the future of their relationship.
Larissa said "I do" to Colt in a princess-style gown from Goodwill that Colt could afford. Debbie felt she was losing a son and gaining a daughter-in-law, but she loved seeing her son happy although she was experiencing mixed emotions herself.
Debbie wanted Colt and Larissa to be "an independent" and "happy" couple, and happy they were.

After the wedding, Larissa locked herself in the bedroom and yelled about being "emotionally exhausted." Colt explained they had a problem that wasn't going away.
"I got a notification from the state of Nevada. Larissa has been charged with domestic battery," Colt told his mother, adding that their altercation was "very private" and happened four days before the wedding.
"She kept going and going and going. I was worried for her. I just wanted her to stop and calm down. I had never seen her like that before. Things got heated and then I called the police. She ended up spending 48 hours in jail."
Debbie was surprised Colt and Larissa had such a bad argument, but after calling the police, Colt asked them not to show up. The police came anyway and Colt did not press charges, but the state of Nevada apparently did.
Larissa had a court date set for a few months from that point, and Colt feared this problem would affect Larissa receiving her green card. Colt said calling the authorities was "one of the worst decisions" he had ever made.
"I don't think I could ever truly make up for what I did," Colt said in a confessional.

STEVEN and OLGA
The newly-engaged couple had been through a lot during Steven's stay in Russia, and he felt bad her K-1 visa was going to take more time to be approved.However, Steven planned to work hard in the United States during their time apart and save up some money for his family.
Steven had a very hard time saying goodbye to his son, Richie, but he knew leaving the baby behind with his mother was the right thing to do.
Steven promised Olga they could make things work and would reunite in America soon enough. Olga cried at the sight of Steven leaving, and then they both said, "I love you," to each other.

Olga worried about being a mother without having a partner around to help her, but she was glad Steven didn't take their son away from her. She also noted that a part of Steven was still with her since she had their son.

JONATHAN and FERNANDA
It was also Jonathan and Fernanda's big day! They decided to wed in Chicago since Jonathan's family lived there, but none of her own family members would be able to attend the wedding.Fernanda was most upset her best friend, her mother, was not going to be there.
Fernanda admitted the past 90 days had been the hardest days of her life since she was separated from her loved ones. She also didn't have the full support of Jonathan's mother, who sadly was going to miss the wedding in order to take care of Jonathan's sick grandmother.
There were a lot of emotions going through Jonathan's mind, as he was both nervous and excited. Jonathan's brother, Nick, couldn't believe Jonathan was getting married because he was "kind of a pimp" and could "pull any" girl he wanted.
Although Fernanda had picked out a beautiful gown with Jonathan's mother and sister, she decided to wear a simple, knee-length dress will bell sleeves and save her dramatic gown for her future ceremony in Mexico.
"This isn't the wedding of my dreams but it is with the man of my dreams. And that's the only thing that matters," Fernanda told the cameras.
The couple tied the knot in an intimate, outdoor wedding, and both individuals were excited to spend the rest of their lives together. Despite language barriers and different cultures, Jonathan and Fernanda believed they had found the love of their lives.
"I am a much better person because of her," Jonathan said in a confessional.
