Many 90 Day Fiancé fans adore Big Ed Brown’s ex-girlfriend Rosemarie Vega, but plenty of viewers cannot stand his new partner Liz Woods. Unfortunately, fans will have the opportunity to see more of Big Ed and Liz when the upcoming season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? airs on August 28. There are multiple reasons why franchise fans dislike Liz almost as much as they dislike 90 Day Fiancé villain Big Ed.
Big Ed became an overnight viral sensation after he appeared on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. He immediately became known for his gross habits and controversial behavior, as he was notoriously rude to Rose and did unconventional things such as putting Mayonnaise in his hair. While Rose was celebrated for dumping Big Ed and standing up for herself, he went on to seek love on 90 Day: The Single Life. Although viewers first felt sympathetic towards American waitress Liz after Big Ed started pursuing her, many now strongly dislike her.
Liz started out as an apparent victim of Big Ed’s persistent pursuit, but she shocked viewers when she fell for him. Liz had a complete change of opinion about Big Ed. Many franchise fans find this to be suspicious and believe that Liz is only with Big Ed for clout. Liz went from rebuffing Big Ed’s kiss to sobbing over him at the Tell-All, and it has been hard for viewers to keep up with her emotions. Therefore, some fans think she is as fame-hungry and clout-greedy as Big Ed. This apparent desperation has made many viewers pan Liz, while Rose’s warm and bubbly personality and perseverance have instead made her a franchise icon.
Now that Liz is outspoken about her relationship with Big Ed and often sings his praise, many viewers dislike her. Big Ed has demonstrated his problematic personality on several occasions, including when he mistreated 90 Day Fiancé franchise fan-favorite Rose and frequently insulted her. Therefore many viewers believe Liz is compliant since she praises Big Ed and excuses his bad behavior. Liz has been grouped in with her franchise villain boyfriend because she stands by his side and celebrates him. Many viewers are frustrated that Big Ed has not addressed his problematic behavior, while Liz enables him to move forward in the franchise.
Overall, the choice to cast Liz and Big Ed on Happily Ever After? has turned many franchise fans off from the upcoming spin-off show. Big Ed and Liz never appeared on 90 Day Fiancé, and the Americans are also not an international couple. Liz is younger than Big Ed’s daughter and the duo displays crass PDA that many viewers dislike. Big Ed and Liz might think they are 90 Day Fiancé franchise royalty, but the reality is that many viewers hope to see them disappear from reality TV altogether.
