The latest season of '90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days' introduced many couples and promised a show that would be entertaining and full of drama. When the show first released its trailer, one person who stood out the most was Big Ed who started being referred to as "No Neck Ed" because of his appearance. 

Ed made it clear that he had lied to his partner, Rosemarie, about his height and was worried if she would expect him or not. While he made it clear that he should not be judged by his height as his personality speaks volumes, one thing viewers did not expect to see was behavior that would make them question the type of man he is. 

Once Ed arrived in the Philippines to meet the love of his life, Rosemarie, fans were surprised that she did not raise issues about him lying to her. While they were convinced that this relationship might last, as the season progressed things became doubtful.

The first red flag that was raised for viewers when Ed asked Rosemarie to get an STD test. Viewers were not happy to see that Ed expected Rosemarie to get a test but denied getting one himself when she asked him to do so.

To make things worse, viewers were left cringing in another episode when Ed asked Rosemarie for a kiss. Many could not help but notice how Rosemarie quickly pushed herself back when Ed kissed her on the lips. 

Looking at how the entire scene played out, many started calling him a "pervert" and questioned his actions. "Girl, please run. Don't let that pervert anywhere near your bits. Sorry, but Ed is an icky perve," one shared. Another added, "I want to puke Ed is a pervert this is so wrong." 

While viewers expected things to not get worse than this, some of Ed's comments had them wondering if he even loved Rosemarie.

Time and again Ed tried to pick out faults that Rosemarie had. From telling her that she needs to shave her legs because it is "not pretty" to gifting her toothbrush and mouthwash while telling her that her breath stinks, fans questioned Ed's behavior. 

In the latest episode (May 3), Ed was called a liar again for hiding the truth about wanting more children. While Rosemarie had always made it clear that she wanted more children, Ed seemed hesitant to have another child.

"Ed is an Egotistical Liar with an over-inflated vision of himself! He is a Buffoon! If he truly looked in a mirror he'd see a middle-aged, short, overweight man without a chin & a greasy excuse for hair! Rose dodged a bullet!" read one comment. 

Another wrote, "Umm one person not wanting kids while the other does is as incompatible as you get, Ed. No need to proceed to meet in person after that. But you know this, liar." To make things worse, one woman recently came forward claiming that Ed had sexually harassed and assaulted her

Ever since he appeared on the show, Ed has had a great social media following but his behavior has also paved way for people to hate him. While he seems unapologetic, it looks like viewers have made up their minds about him.
