90 Day Fiancé: Lily’s Family Balks at Her Relationship with Unemployed Josh—What’s Behind the Conflict?
Season 6 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way has introduced us to a captivating mix of couples, each navigating their unique relationship challenges. Among them are Lily and Josh, who are quickly becoming fan favorites. Unlike most couples on the show, fans believe Lily and Josh offer a refreshing dynamic on the show despite facing their own set of issues.
Lily is an independent single mom with her own cosmetology business. Josh, on the other hand, has left his job in South Carolina to join Lily in China. With Josh no longer being the breadwinner, tensions are rising between the two. Recently, Lily’s sister also expressed her doubts about Josh not working. So, what did she say? Will this cause a dent in their relationship? Let’s find out.
90 Day Fiance: Lily’s Sister Feels Bad About Her!
Lily and Josh are the newest additions to the cast of 90 Day Fiance season 6, and fans love this fresh duo. Lily is a 46-year-old business owner living in Hangzhou, China, while Josh, 42, hails from South Carolina. The two met on a language learning app, where Lily was trying to speak English, and Josh was learning Mandarin.
The couple tied the knot in Las Vegas two years after Josh proposed. With Lily never wanting to live in the U.S., Josh moved to China on her spousal visa to settle with her there. However, the country is entirely new for Josh, and due to legal reasons, he cannot work for another five years.
Recently, Lily’s sister sat down with the couple to discuss Josh not being able to work in China. “It’s not by choice. We knew when we moved to China I can’t work,” Josh told Lily’s sister. He emphasized that the couple wanted to be together. So, he quit his job. During a private confessional, the 90 Day Fiance star admitted feeling judged for not being able to work.
“I don’t want Lily’s family to have any reason to think that this marriage is not a good idea,” he added. Speaking to her sister, Josh listed the things he could help with while being a house husband, such as cooking and cleaning. While Lily’s sister listened carefully, she appeared hesitant.
Talking to the camera privately, she expressed feeling like Josh being unemployed could put “more pressure” on Lily to support her family financially. “Our family is worried about her,” she added. “We feel bad that she’ll need to work so hard.” The conversation seemed a bit tense with Josh looking visibly uncomfortable.
90 Day Fiance: Are Lily and Josh Still Together?
Lily and Josh were introduced in the latest season of 90 Day Fiance, quickly becoming fan favourites with many rooting for their success. While it is uncertain if they are still together, their joint social media accounts on Instagram, TikTok and Cameo suggest a strong connection. Recent posts from Hangzhou, China, indicate the couple might have successfully settled there.
Societal norms often dictate that men should be the breadwinners, a belief that seems to be challenging their relationship. Josh’s jealousy issues have also surfaced, particularly when he was uncomfortable with Lily playing badminton with men. These issues could potentially strain their relationship.
However, based on their social media presence, it appears the couple is still happily together. It suggests their love has triumphed over these challenges.
