90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 7 episode 6, which aired on October 6, has shed light on their struggles, particularly surrounding Tigerlily's beauty routines and appropriate attire in Jordan.

Tigerlily wore a low-cut V-neck top and pants for an outing, which Adnan's brother deemed unsuitable for the local culture. This incident sparked tension, with Adnan defending Tigerlily against his brother's criticism.


Tigerlily’s attire spark tension on 90 day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days

A recent episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days highlighted a cultural friction point between Tigerlily and Adnan's family. For the outing, Tigerlily had chosen to wear a low-cut V-neck top paired with pants. This choice of attire prompted a comment from Adnan's brother, who stated,

"This clothes is not good in Jordan."

The comment from Adnan's brother about Tigerlily's clothing sparked further tension. Adnan quickly came to Tigerlily's defense, telling his brother to "Keep his mouth shut a bit" and asserting that Tigerlily's attire was not his business. This intervention demonstrated Adnan's willingness to stand up for his wife in the face of family criticism.

However, Tigerlily noticed a discrepancy in the standards applied to her and Adnan's appearance. In her confessional, she pointed out that while her low-cut top was deemed inappropriate, Adnan's shirt was unbuttoned down to his belly button.

Tigerlily described this perceived double standard as "completely ridiculous," highlighting the complex dynamics of cultural expectations and gender norms at play in their relationship.


Three-hour wait leads to confrontation

Same 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days episode also captured a tense moment between Tigerlily and Adnan before discussions moved to cultural differences. The incident unfolded when Adnan and his brother found themselves waiting in a car for three hours while Tigerlily prepared for an outing with her glam squad, Shay and Cruz.

Upon Tigerlily's arrival, Adnan wasted no time expressing his frustration. He immediately confronted her, saying,

"Baby, this is so annoying! Every time I am going anywhere, I [have to] wait."

This outburst highlighted the growing tension between the couple over Tigerlily's lengthy beauty routines.

Tigerlily justified her behavior by saying she needed more time to get her hair done. She challenged Adnan's complaint by asking, "Do you want me to look ugly?" In response, Adnan acknowledged her efforts, stating, "You are always a queen. I know that." However, this exchange did little to resolve the underlying issue.

In a later confessional, Tigerlily revealed her perspective on the situation. She expressed feeling "completely annoyed" by Adnan's lack of patience, especially considering the effort she puts into looking good for him.

Tigerlily maintained that Adnan would need to adjust to her beauty routine, signaling an ongoing point of contention in their relationship.


Ongoing cultural adjustment issues

The clash over Tigerlily's attire and beauty routine is part of a larger pattern of cultural adjustment issues plaguing the couple. Previous episodes have shown Tigerlily expressing surprise at Adnan's jealous behavior, which she had not anticipated before their marriage.

One specific incident that underscored this jealousy involved Adnan becoming upset about Tigerlily's hairdresser being male.

Beyond jealousy, Tigerlily has been grappling with her limited decision-making power within the relationship. Tigerlily's frustration with these limitations has led her to question her decision to be with Adnan, as she admitted in a candid moment on the 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days.

The rapid progression of their relationship, culminating in an early marriage, left little time for the couple to address and reconcile these fundamental differences in expectations and lifestyle.


90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days episode 6 highlighted increasing difficulties that Tigerlily and Adnan. The couple's story remains ongoing, with the resolution of their growing conflict remains to be seen in upcoming episodes.
