The highly anticipated Tell-All Part 1 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 7 aired on January 12, 2025, bringing the drama and revelations fans have come to expect from these reunion episodes. Among the most compelling storylines was Loren Allen's complicated relationship with Faith Gatoc, which took center stage as cast members gathered in New York City.
Fresh from his return to American soil, Loren immediately addressed the criticism he's faced throughout the season.
He told the 90 Day Fiancé cameras:
"I feel misunderstood. I mean, I might have unconventional views compared to some of the other people that are here today, but I mean, like, it's not their relationship,"
And he concluded with a, "Why do they care?"
Host Shaun Robinson led the cast through a number of difficult conversations, ranging from relationship updates to confrontations regarding previous transgressions, with Loren and Faith's story capturing the interest of both cast members and viewers alike.
90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days’ Loren and Faith’s story so far
The Tell-All revealed surprising details about how Loren and Faith's relationship began, including an unexpected twist about Loren's initial plans in the Philippines. His friend Esther shared that Loren's journey actually started with another trans woman who allegedly deceived him and "pretty much took all of his money."
Loren then explained his pivot to pursuing Faith:
"And then I'm like, well, if I still have a ticket to the Philippines, I have to go find love for real, right? And then I started talking to Faith."
Despite their tumultuous past, 90 Day Fiancé's Faith confirmed maintaining daily communication with Loren since returning his engagement ring. While Loren considers himself engaged and attempted to return Faith's ring (though the package was reportedly stolen), Faith maintains a different perspective on their relationship status. Though not considering herself engaged, she acknowledged they were back together.
In an emotional moment, Faith opened up about her struggles:
"I think it's very hard to fight to accept for who I am because you know, I'm a lady boy," she shared through tears.
Her vulnerability sparked concern among fellow cast members, who unanimously advised her to end the relationship.
The 90 Day Fiancé Tell-All revealed various worrisome activities, including Loren's dating tendencies. His friend Esther highlighted his propensity to switch between relationships while keeping "backups" of possible lovers on hand.
The show also rehashed a tense scene with Loren and a butter knife, which made Faith uncomfortable enough to take it away. Loren blamed his conduct on anxiety, stating he hadn't comprehended the consequences.
The cast raised concerns regarding Faith and Loren’s relationship
The other cast members didn't hold back their opinions about Loren and Faith's relationship. Niles was particularly vocal, warning Faith, "he has shown you who he is." This sentiment echoed throughout the group as they expressed concerns about the couple's future.
When Robinson asked Faith about Loren's potential for change, her hesitation screamed volumes. Despite her fellow cast members' strong desire to end the relationship, Faith appeared uncertain about their future together.
The 90 Day Fiancé Tell-All allowed Loren and Faith to express their opinions, but it ultimately created more concerns than answers concerning their relationship's future. As viewers process these disclosures, it's apparent that their journey remains one of the season's most complicated and debated themes.
