Recently, James and Meitalia decided to start living in Indonesia with Meitalia’s parents. But it seems there’s more to the story than James is revealing. The latest TLC episode brought many hidden emotions to the surface, culminating in Meitalia breaking down at her mother’s feet, pleading for forgiveness. So, what led Meitalia to this emotional moment? Let’s find out.
90 Day Fiance: Meitalia Breaks Down, Kissing Mother’s Feet For Forgiveness!
In the August 12 episode of The Other Way, 90 Day Fiance couple Meitalia and James revealed their plans to stay in Indonesia to Meitalia’s parents. Initially, her parents were thrilled; her mother even mentioned that this had been her hope from the beginning. Her father also didn’t mind if James wanted to help with the family’s banana chip business.
However, tensions soon emerged. The couple disclosed their intention to earn a substantial amount to pay off their $15,000 car debt. Moreover, James wants Meitalia’s parents to pay him for selling banana chips for the family business. So, he can cover his $700 monthly car payments back in America.
Meitalia’s father, while receptive, agreed to pay off his debt. However, he set a condition: James must not incur any more debt. The ultimatum doesn’t sit well with James. “I would say ‘yes,’ but sometimes in life, you have to take a loan,” he clarified. Moreover, he had also not learned the Indonesian language, creating a language barrier between him and her parents.
The growing tensions culminated in Meitalia breaking down in tears. She believed she was burdening her parents even after marriage. However, her mother assures her, saying, “It’s not a problem for me.” Despite this, Meitalia continued to cry, burying her face in her hands. She kept repeating that she was burdening her mom with more problems.
Her father then insists that Meitalia kiss her mother’s feet, asking for forgiveness. Meitalia immediately kneeled on the floor and kissed each of her mother’s feet. “I’m so sorry, Mom,” she pleads. Meanwhile, James had no clue about what just happened. In the tense moment, he admits feeling lonely.
90 Day Fiance: Are Meitalia and James Not Really Moving To Indonesia?
In the latest episode of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, Meitalia was seen kissing her mother’s feet, seeking forgiveness. During the same episode, Meitalia and James also revealed that they are staying in Indonesia. However, something seems fishy about their decision. James insists on paying his car debt in the United States, which seems unusual since he isn’t using the vehicle.
It would make more sense for James to sell off the car and clear the debt using that money. However, James insisted otherwise. Back in the US, he had a stable job and his family. In Indonesia, he can barely make a profit selling banana chips. It appears he believed his stay in Indonesia would be temporary. James might either plan to move back soon or believe Meitalia will eventually realize they need to return. Keep coming back to TV Season & Spoilers for the latest 90 Day Fiance tea.
