Sarper Güven from 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way may be a playboy, but Shekinah Garner could be playing him. The Turkish and American couple’s romantic connection made viewers skeptical from day one. Their relationship seemed riddled with red flags. One of the biggest issues was Sarper’s self-proclaimed bad boy attitude, which became evident when he pushed Shekinah to drop extra pounds. The 43-year-old even got the scale out to measure Shekinah’s weight loss progress after she flew thousands of miles to settle with him.
While Shekinah’s family was already against her dating Sarper, she was initially confident in their connection. However, the 41-year-old single mom also started regretting her move when she saw Sarper’s bad habits. Shekinah disliked Sarper’s smoking addiction and expected him to change. Shekinah also asked Sarper to go Instagram official with her to make their relationship public. Despite her demands, Shekinah struggled to overcome the fact that Sarper had been with over 2,500 women before her. There is some suggestion that the pair will split up eventually.
Shekinah’s Ulterior Motives Could Be The Reason She Hasn’t Left Sarper
So far, Sarper seems to be the shady one in the relationship. However, a few clues hint that Shekinah could be using him. Over the weeks, Shekinah has talked about her rebellious nature and how she broke free of her Amish household. She’s a businesswoman who understands what is good and bad for her. Shekinah may be with Sarper for ulterior motives. She hasn’t left him because she can use him to be on reality TV, earn social media clout, and later utilize it to expand her business.
Shekinah Hasn’t Moved To Turkey Yet Her
It’s shocking to see a well-settled single mom like Shekinah wanting to leave her American life behind to marry Sarper in Turkey. However, social media details suggest she has probably lied about her plans on camera. Shekinah’s Instagram still shows that she’s in the United States despite claiming she’s willing to settle with Sarper. The couple have already created a social media account where they claim to be in love and together. It doesn’t seem like Shekinah has stuck to her plan despite being with Sarper, which may hint that she used 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way to her benefit.
Shekinah’s Reality TV Past Raises Eyebrows
Shekinah has already tried her hands at being a reality TV star in the past. A few years ago, she was on another dating show, Millionaire Matchmaker, pursuing a different man. It seems like she has been trying to achieve that celebrity status for a while and joined the 90 Day Fiance franchise for the same. Sarper appears to be the bad guy in the relationship, but clues suggest that Shekinah is probably too smart to fall for his trap. Shekinah is likely the mastermind behind her latest appearance on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 5 and used Sarper for that.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on TLC.
