'90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way': Kenneth finally meets Armando's parents, but will they accept him?
Kenneth Niedermeie and Armando Rubio have had a lot to celebrate recently as the two got engaged. The pair has won the hearts of the viewers ever since their storyline was introduced. Being the only ones engaged on the show, one would think their relationship would be a smooth ride. Unfortunately, the pair still has a lot to deal with.
When the show first started, Armando was vocal about his family not being supportive of him being gay. Being a single father, his family cared more about what society would think and how their son would survive in a place that did not respect gay people. Fortunately for Armando, after having a heartfelt conversation with his family, his mother and sister accepted him.
While his father hinted that he loves him, he had a hard time coming and saying goodbye to Armando when he was about to leave to meet Kenneth. Armando admitted that he felt emotional about not seeing his father but understood that he needed time. Now that Armando and Kenneth have been away for so long, it is finally time for them to meet his family as a couple.
Kenneth had been worried about how his family would react to the news of them getting engaged. Even though it was a joyous occasion for them, Armando made it clear that he would not be telling his family about the engagement. Fearing that it might be too soon, Armando thought it would be best for his family to first meet Kenneth and then break the news.
While Kenneth did not object to Armando's decision, he admitted that he feared if things would change. Kenneth wondered if it would reach a point where Armando would have to choose between his family and him. To make things more complicated, the pair was recently a victim of a homophobic slur.
The pair had been spending their time together when one of the locals decided to pass a comment. Armando admitted that it had been hard for him to come out to the world while staying in Mexico and this event made things harder for him.
Right from how to break the news about his engagement to his family to deciding on whether to live in Mexico, Armando sure has a lot on his plate.
'90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way' airs on Mondays at 9 pm ET on TLC.
