Former 90 Day Fiancé star Molly Hopkins has instituted legal proceedings against her former best friend, Cynthia Decker. The end of the friendship between the 47-year-old Georgia woman and her ex-friend left viewers stunned when it became public news in December. The former best friends and business partners were close for over a decade and were a fan-favorite duo on 90 Day Fiancé: Pillow Talk. As a result, their sudden split sparked speculations, with rumors circulating about the cause.

While fans still don't know what caused the split, 90 Day Fiancé's Molly and Cynthia's business has been functional despite the drama. Moreover, the 90 Day alum has seemingly been unaffected by her recent separation from her former best friend. Despite the sudden breakup and rumors circulating, Molly's representative has stated that she is focused on her business and charity work and doesn't want to be distracted by negativity. During Christmas, Molly helped multiple families behind the scenes and is said to be staying positive and looking forward to the future, disregarding any negative energy surrounding the situation.

While Molly remains tight-lipped on the topic, In Touch has reported that she has sued her former best friend and 90 Day Fiancé: Pillow Talk co-star, Cynthia, over another business. According to In Touch, the 47-year-old reality star is suing Cynthia for starting a competing company and violating their operating agreement. Molly is asking for a declaration that Cynthia is a member of their joint business, LiviRae Lingerie, and for a temporary restraining order, damages, attorney fees, and other relief from the court. Molly claims that Cynthia has started a competing business, taken client information, and continued to harass employees even after being served a cease-and-desist letter.

90 Day Fiancé Fans React To Molly Hopkins' Lawsuit

Cynthia has disputed the claims, stating that the lawsuit is frivolous and that she had a verbal agreement not to return to the store. However, Molly alleges her former friend has been spreading false accusations about her to the business accountant and anyone who would listen. Legal proceedings suggest that the split between the former best friends is about a business dispute. According to a Reddit thread started by u/oreoe92_lci, many fans feel the lawsuit is ridiculous. A Redditor said, "There are enough b**bs in Georgia for both of them to support," so they shouldn't fight over it.

Fans think the fight between Molly and Cynthia is confusing and "bizzare." A Redditor wrote, "She says Cynthia is a partner & therefore can't start her new business, then says Cynthia hasn't worked there since 2019. And filled a restraining order against her," adding that the whole story has contradictions. Another Redditor commented, "Cynthia liked one of kelly's recent IG posts. i think the problem is olivia." Fans may be onto something, as Molly's daughter Olivia has been the center of several controversies. Until a few weeks ago, 90 Day Fiancé fans hoped Molly and Cynthia would resolve their issues, but it now seems there's no chance of reconciliation.
