'90 Day Fiance': Is Brandon gay? Fans say he's simply trying to convince viewers that he's straight

'Every season there’s a gay guy who tries to convince us he’s straight...this season, Brandon is that guy' viewers said

Of the three new couples who were introduced in the premiere episode of '90 Day Fiance' Season 8, Brandon and Julia seem to have made the most noise among fans, especially Brandon and his family who seem to have a unique approach to living their lives. 

The family has a farm tucked away in a quiet corner of Dinwiddie, VA, where they rear goats and run a dog breeding business, which drew a lot of flak on social media. Even though Brandon works a job as a pest control agent, he gladly helps his parents - Betty and Ron - out at the farm by feeding and taking care of the animals. He wishes to continue doing it more because he doesn't have a choice given how he exhausted his savings on his relationship with Julia, a go-go dancer from Russia. 

Brandon is someone who is a dutiful son and will listen to everything his mother says, even if it didn't sit well with his thoughts on life. For instance, Julia and Brandon will be living separately once she arrives in the country, which meant they would have to spend their nights by themselves in their respective bedrooms. He seemed reluctant to agree to it but gave in eventually. 

Betty didn't stop at that. She asked questions about Julia and if she was on any kind of birth control. While Brandon admitted that he has spoken with his girl about it but Betty was not convinced and decided to take matters into her own hands. While on their way to the airport, she called up a clinic to set up an appointment with a gynecologist for Julia to have a discussion with so that she knows and understands her birth control options better. Brandon was quiet all along, which had fans convinced that he needed to grow up and share his thoughts with Betty more often. Some even pointed out that given his relationship with his parents, it won't be surprising if he were gay. 

"Every season there’s a gay guy who tries to convince us he’s straight...this season, Brandon is that guy! #90DayFiance," a user commented, while another shared: "Heyyyy juuuuls" that was gay as hell. #90DayFiance."

"#90DayFiance When you realize you should’ve just told your parents your gay," a user shared, to which another responded: "I can’t tell if these parents are tolerant OR not. They might of sent him to one of those conversion camps." "Alright, I’ve seen enough. Brandon is gay. #90DayFiance," fan tweeted.
