90 Day Fiance: The Other Way alum Deavan Clegg, who has alleged she and Jihoon Lee often faked their storyline for the show, has revealed why she'll never film another 90 Day Fiance spinoff.

Deavan and Jihoon were shown working on their marriage on the first two seasons of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, which aired from 2019-2020.

Deavan previously claimed Jihoon was "abusive" during their relationship and that the father of her three-year-old son Taeyang had done "disgusting" and "vile" things.

Deavan even alleged Jihoon had abused her five-year-old daughter Drascilla from a previous relationship, which Jihoon firmly denied.

Deavan filed for divorce from Jihoon in September 2020 and their divorce was just finalized recently.

On May 23, Deavan conducted a Q&A on Instagram Stories with her followers.

"They asked if I was willing to continue filming with [Jihoon] for [90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?]. This would be after production knew of the abuse," Deavan wrote to a fan.

"This is a huge reason why I severed ties and will never do the show again."

Back in 2020, Deavan insisted she was completely done filming with the 90 Day Fiance franchise after multiple bad experiences.

Deavan said at the time she had been asked to fake scenes with Jihoon, and she also accused the editing team of making Drascilla look out of control on Season 2.

Deavan also made the bold claim that 90 Day Fiance's production company had driven cast members to consider suicide.

Deavan elaborated on what was allegedly fake about her storyline during her Monday Q&A session.

"When I moved [to Korea], we never slept in the same bed. We faked it for YouTube and the show," Deavan wrote.

However, Deavan assured 90 Day Fiance fans that "some" of the footage "was real" and "some was fake."

"Season 1... 96 percent fake. I wasn't seeking (honor/approval) when you saw us in Vegas. We were already married on paper," Deavan said. "It wasn't either of our ideas to get married. But his parents insisted to make it work."

Deavan elaborated, "We both thought we were doing the right thing and feelings could happen later on. I never moved to Korea in Season 1."

Instead, Deavan said she and Jihoon had "planned a 7-day trip because filming insisted we had to film scenes in Korea because its TOW."

"I was never going to move. We got [cast] for Season 2 and agreed to stay in Korea for filming. As for his debt and crimes, I really didn't know and found out on camera," Deavan said, referring to Jihoon's former illegal business of buying and selling used phones.

"Season 2, I would say, 50/50 drama was real. After the Tea House, we were both in it just [to] get paid. We knew if we didn't finish the season and spoke out, we wouldn't get paid. Because they don't pay you until the show is finished airing."

Deavan said she and Jihoon had ended their relationship in November 2019, shortly after she announced having a miscarriage with their second child on social media, but they chose to continue filming the show for the money.

Looking back on the 90 Day Fiance footage, Deavan shared, "I thought it was pretty obvious to viewers we didn't like each other. I've looked back and watched the show with clear eyes now. I wish I saw the signs before it got out of hand."

Viewers watched the couple's marriage appear to crumble when they were forced to quarantine together in their small Korean apartment with Deavan's two kids in early 2020.

Deavan claimed Jihoon just played video games in his room all day and wasn't helping out with the kids.

Deavan revealed in August 2020 she had moved back to the United States after trying to move to South Korea for the second time, and Jihoon then confirmed their split shortly afterwards.

Deavan said she regrets filming Season 2 but doesn't regret participating in Season 1 because it was "a fun experience" overall.

Deavan also clarified in her Q&A on Instagram Stories her claim that Jihoon "hasn't spoken to [Taeyang] since he was 13 months old."

Deavan insisted Jihoon's alleged lack of responsiveness and care for Taeyang is why a judge awarded her full custody of Taeyang during the divorce proceedings, and she added, "Now it is permanent."

When asked why Jihoon -- who allegedly never paid child support, according to Deavan -- suddenly seemed to stop caring, Deavan replied, "I don't know. In my personal opinion, it was all for the show."

Deavan is currently pregnant with her third child. The former reality TV star revealed earlier this month she is expecting a baby with boyfriend Christopher "Topher" Park who is due in Fall 2022.

Deavan went Instagram official with Topher the same month Jihoon confirmed their breakup, in September 2020.

Deavan suggested in her Q&A that she's thinking about having Topher adopt both Taeyang and Drascilla, whom she had with a prior boyfriend prior to meeting Jihoon.

"He would very much love that... Blood doesn't make a father a father," Deavan shared on Instagram Stories.

She elaborated, "Topher has been in Taeyang's life for two years. Taeyang calls Topher dad and cries for him more than me. I think Taeyang only knows him. Unfortunately, that is what my ex decided. He had his rights and didn't take them."

Deavan is pregnant with a rainbow baby one year after she had another miscarriage in April 2021 with Topher's child.
