Andrei Castravet and Elizabeth Potthast Castravet had a second wedding in Moldova and the celebration did not go the way they had hoped. Andrei had invited Elizabeth's family for the wedding and had imagined they would be able to move past their differences and enjoy the day. However, Elizabeth's family had a lot of questions ahead of the wedding.

Coming to the tell-all, Jenn, Charlie and Chuck Potthast put forward their thoughts on Andrei. Right from calling him a "cold heart" and "aggressive" to questioning him about asking Chuck to pay for the second wedding, Jenn was quick to talk about the problems she has had with him. 

Host Shaun Robinson also brought up the part where Elizabeth's family spoke about the Moldovan culture. During their visit to Moldova, Chuck, Jenn and Charlie were talking about the food that was available for them. Calling it "peasant" food and asking things like whether Moldova had a McDonalds, Andrei was not happy to see the things Elizabeth's family had to say. 

At the same time, Elizabeth admitted it was the first time she was seeing the scene and was not happy with how her family spoke about the culture and Andrei. Despite other cast members admitting it was disrespectful to the culture, Elizabeth's family were unapologetic. Jenn was quick to add that everyone had the right to have their opinion. 

Undoubtedly, Andrei was not happy to hear the things they spoke about either of them. Fans took to social media to call out the family for being a "racist". "Libby's family pisses me off just as much as Andrei does! Andrei needs to grow up and her family needs to quit being so racist!" read one comment. 



 



 

Another added, "Finally @90DayFiance addressing Libby's family's racist & classist views. And no surprise that they took zero accountability or don't regret anything. Glad the rest of #90DayFiance couples called it out!"



 



 

"CHUCK HAS THE NERVE! 'Are you seriously defending that right now?' After you just defended you & your family’s blatant disrespect you had for his country & culture," read one comment. "After watching Libby's family disrespect Andrei's culture and traditions, it clearly proves that they have never (and should never) leave the backwaters of Florida," another said. 

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