'90 Day Fiance: Fans slam cast for IGNORING Mike's 'slut-shaming' behavior

The tell-all cast was quick to label Ximena as a gold digger, giving Mike and his problematic actions a free pass

It looks like confrontation is the name of the game on '90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days' Season 5 tell-all. Each of the couples are addressing their multiple issues during the special and let's just say there is a lot of unresolved drama.

From the start of the season, it looked like Mike and Ximena weren't built to last. While Mike was thoroughly invested in the relationship, the same could not be said about Ximena. However, she didn't hide how she felt about him to her credit.

With Mike and Ximena getting back together despite breaking up at the end of their season, it looks like the full cast was determined to help Mike see the light. His friends, John and Nelcy even joined the show, in the hope of making him realize that Ximena was only using him for his money. Ximena noted that Mike was a good man but she was not in love with him, causing the conversation with her and Nelcy to get heated. Ximena walked away while Mike asked Nelcy to 'shut up', causing her to leave as well. While everyone seemed to be on Team Mike, fans were livid that no one was defending Ximena, seeing that Mike's behavior was just as problematic, if not worse.

"TLC, why are you not showing Mike and his manipulative, slut-shaming ways? #BeforeThe90Days #90DayFiance #MikeandXimena" tweeted a fan. "Really disappointed they didn’t bring up the slut-shaming and the edit is clearly trying to make Mike look like a good guy. #90DayFiance #90dayfiancebeforethe90days" added another. "#90DayFiance Ximena is being honest so why are they mad they met on a web cam site what was expected?!" stated a fan. "They all coming at Ximena for a problem Mike Caused. He basically applied to be her employer in a way. It was never she was doing the job of being with him for a fee" agreed another. 

"Shame on all the cast, Mike’s friends AND Shaun for the complete gang up on Ximena. You all enable Mike to behave as disgustingly as he does and he feels emboldened by your support. Ximena is not perfect, but no one is calling Mike out" tweeted a fan. "This man took a liking to her, accosted her during her cam time, convinced her to stop the job that he met her on and said he’d take care of her, and proceeded to act like he was surprised that she expected money from him. Mike needs help #90DayFiance" said another. 

Although '90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days' Season 5 has ended, you can catch the premiere of '90 Day Fiancé' Season 9 on Sunday, April 17 at 8 pm ET/PT on TLC.
