Recently, 90 Day Fiancé stars Jovi Dufren and Yara Zaya got into a major disagreement over their parenting styles, and based on a fan poll, viewers seem to be overwhelmingly siding with Yara. In the past, Jovi’s family have been slammed for criticizing Yara’s abilities as a mother, and now fans are once again backing Yara and her outlook on raising her daughter Mylah.
On the latest episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Jovi and Yara took a trip to Miami (with Mylah and grandma Gwen in tow) in an effort to get some alone time together. But during a fancy rooftop dinner, Jovi and Yara got into an argument. Jovi felt that Yara had changed completely from the fun girl he knew into a boring mom who isn’t interested in her relationship with him. However, Yara responded that Jovi needs to grow up and realize that as a father, his life and priorities need to shift.
Reddit fans took a poll about who users agreed with more, Jovi or Yara, and the response was overwhelmingly one-sided. Of the 300 voters, over two-thirds of them defended Yara’s position. “I don’t know why people have kids and then act surprised that their lives change,” a fan commented. Another added that “Jovi just showing his true colors that he is always gonna be a selfish frat boy,” and doubted that he would ever change. Many agreed with Yara that her and Jovi’s lives are fundamentally different as parents and now Mylah always comes first.
However, despite most responding fans feeling like Yara was being mom shamed, there were others who sided with Jovi. A little under a third of the fans who voted thought Jovi wasn’t out of line to point out how much Yara has changed since Mylah was born. They agreed that as her husband Jovi should still be a priority to Yara, and she should still put effort into their relationship. There are still fans who think Yara is being overprotective of Mylah and is ignoring Jovi.
Regardless of whose side 90 Day Fiancé fans were on, many could agree that the couple’s disagreement felt more nuanced and organic than many of the dramatic blowups viewers have seen this season. Most of the other couples and families have explosive arguments, but Jovi and Yara’s disagreement was authentic and a relatable issue to new parents navigating the changes in their own lives. Fans may be split about who’s right; however, many can agree that Jovi and Yara are one of the least contrived couples on the show.
