Kalani Faagata and Asuelu Pulaa have been married for nearly three years and have two beautiful children, but their marriage has not been going as smoothly as they had expected. Asuelu had been wanting to head back home in the hope of meeting his parents but due to the measles outbreak, Kalani and her family thought it would be best not to put the children at risk. 

While they agreed to put a pause to the idea, Asuelu was not happy with the outcome. He thought he did not have much say in the decision making because Kalani's parents were with her and outnumbered him. Despite their disagreements, Kalani's family thought they could take a trip down to California to celebrate Oliver's birthday. Despite this decision, Kalani thought things would be fine between them but their road trip soon turned out to be a nightmare. Kalani hinted that she was not feeling well and neither were the children. Asuelu used this time to take a dig at her by stating that they should have stayed home if the children were not feeling well. Hinting that the same rules should have applied like they did when he wanted to go to Samoa.

While Kalani tried to ignore these digs, things got heated between them when Asuelu stated that her job was an easy task. Speaking to the camera, Asuelu stated that the lives of American women was easier as they had all the technology at their disposal to help them out. He further added that Samoa women had to do everything with their hands and lived a tougher life but never complained. Hearing these words Kalani was shocked and reminded him that he failed to get up and take care of the children while she was awake all night for them. Asuelu tried to justify his actions by stating that he managed to wake up a few times. 

The discussion ended with Kalani's mother warning Auselu about his actions and warned him against saying such things in front of her husband. While Asuelu eventually ended the conversation, he was soon criticized by the viewers. 

"Asuelu is a misogynistic dingbat," read one comment. "I dare Asuelu to switch with Kalani’s life for a week. See if American women’s lives are so easy. What a cry-baby. Poor Kalani who has 2 children with that guy," read another comment. "It’s funny how Asuelu thinks cleaning and taking care of kids is an easy job when his job is to hand out samples all day at a grocery store. 15-year-olds do his job," another wrote. 

'90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?' airs on Sundays at 8 pm ET on TLC.
