90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way couple Nicole and Mahmoud Elsherbiny aren't fooling anyone with their fight to be together, as fans think they're only keeping their relationship going for the show. The married couple appeared during the new season's second episode, with Nicole explaining the many barriers to their relationship. Because Mahmoud is Muslim, he wants Nicole to cover her body and hair and not hug or touch other men. Nicole disagrees with his beliefs and admitted that the pair almost split up but are now determined to live together in Egypt. Nicole's friends have many concerns about the relationship.
In the 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way season 4 episode, Nicole revealed that she used to work in the fashion industry but didn't think it was a good fit for her, so now she is a pizza delivery woman and sells vintage clothes on the side. The pair met while Nicole was on a spiritual journey in Egypt and got married very fast. Nicole lived in Egypt initially but left because she didn't like it. Nicole's friends were confused when she shared that she would no longer be splitting up with Mahmoud and instead is moving to Egypt for him.
Nicole & Mahmoud Are On 90 Day Fiancé For Money
However, fans don't believe the 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way couple would be together if it weren't for the show. Twitter user @jessbay00 believes Nicole and Mahmoud aren't together anymore but "are willing to give it a last chance only to be on the show." The fan points out that the pair aren't a good match, and they know it. Another fan on Twitter, @FranksLawnmower, agrees the two are pushing for their relationship to work out so they can be on 90 Day Fiancé and make money from the show. The fan suggested that Nicole and Mahmoud were ready to get divorced until Nicole realized she could make some extra cash by starring on 90 Day Fiancé. "I might not have to deliver pizza anymore," the fan predicted Nicole might have said.
Nicole & Mahmoud's Relationship Doesn't Make Much Sense
A lot doesn't add up with Nicole and Mahmoud's relationship, so it makes sense that fans would question the real reason the pair is on the show. They would not be the first ones to go on a reality tv show hoping for some quick cash. It's been done many times before, and whether people like it or not, it tends to work. This could also be the case for 90 Day Fiancé's Daniele Gates, who can't afford to live in New York anymore and filed for bankruptcy in 2022. However, there's also a chance that Nicole and Mahmoud really do love each other and had a change of heart about their split.
Still, like many other 90 Day Fiancé couples, it's hard to ignore how little sense their relationship makes and how convenient it would be for them to join the show just for a paycheck. Fans will have to keep watching the season to see if their theory adds up. While there are many more 90 Day Fiancé The Other Way season 4 episodes to come, it's likely fans will find out the truth as they tune in every week.
