Elizabeth Potthast Castravet and Andrei Castravet have been meaning to get married again, but this time he wants it done with his family around. When Elizabeth and Andrei first got married, the pair was in the US and his parents were unable to be there for the wedding. After a lot of thinking, Andrei decided it would be best for them to get married again. 

The pair decided to travel to Moldova and have their second wedding where Andrei's friends and family can be there to attend. However, before getting married, Andrei informed Elizabeth that she would have to convert to his religion if she wanted to go ahead with the ceremony. He further explained that the church in Moldova was strict and would only allow them to get married if they were of the same religion. 

In the preview clip, Elizabeth can be seen getting ready to enter the church. Her sister-in-law helps her wear a scarf and she does not seem pleased to know that only the women have to follow certain rules and regulations. Elizabeth admitted that she wasn't aware of how things would go but wanted to finish it so they could move on and focus on the things that were more important. 

As Elizabeth prepared herself for the ceremony, she gave more insight into Andrei's religion. The reality star explained that the women have to wear a headscarf, are not allowed to wear makeup during this ceremony and have to wear an all-white dress. She admitted that it is all new for her and added that it feels like she is in a different world. Looking at how Elizabeth seemed to have mixed emotions, fans were quick to respond. "I feel that Andrei takes pleasure in belittling her! He snatched her phone out of her hands when she was texting her sister. Now telling her to shut up! She allows it!" one user wrote along with the hashtag that said "verbal abuse".

Another wrote, "Why it seems like she always ends it up doing things that she doesn’t want? Like ask money from daddy, marriage when Andrei wanted, etc..." Another said, "Run as fast as you can. Why do you always have to bend to his rules and lose your rights? Your living in America right?"

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