Summary

- Holly has no understanding of Wayne’s financial situation and appears to be completely dependent on him, causing tension and unhealthy expectations in their relationship.
- Holly’s inability to adapt to South African culture and her insistence on her own comforts and desires may ultimately lead to the end of her relationship with Wayne on 90 Day Fiancé.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 5 couple Holly Weeks and Wayne Cornish are facing certain disaster, as Holly’s inability to grasp her new life circumstances will lead to disappointment. The Utah woman moved to South Africa to be with her future husband. However, a lack of communication mixed with a lot of unrealistic expectations is setting Holly up for an unhappy marriage and move.
Holly is an eccentric American woman who decided to quit her job as a hairdresser and follow her heart to South Africa. Since she has visited before, Holly is aware of the dangers where Wayne lives. Wayne resides in a neighborhood with frequent break-ins, though he recently tried to take more security measures to make his future wife feel safe. However, Holly is determined to have Wayne buy her a new house. This led her to book house-hunting appointments and get a rude awakening when she realized Wayne didn’t have the funds she expected to buy her home.
Holly Has Unrealistic House Expectations
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 5 newcomer Holly comes across as delusional regarding the house hunt. The Utah woman told the real estate agent that their budget was 400,000 American dollars or approximately 4 million in South African currency. Wayne was blown away by this figure, which she seemed to conjure out of thin air. In contrast, the house they looked at was a fourth of the price and still out of Wayne’s budget. Therefore, the extent of Holly’s delusions appears to be very high. Even the real estate agent was shocked by her words, as she clearly listed a massive budget for the area.
Holly Has No Grasp On Wayne’s Finances
While Wayne is also partially to blame for Holly being kept in the dark about finances, it’s clear she moved around the world to live with someone without inquiring about their financial situation. Holly knows nothing about Wayne’s finances and only now learned he has no savings, put his money in Cryptocurrency, and lost a major work contract. Holly also never commented on her financial situation or career goals in South Africa, as she appears to be completely dependent on Wayne. Therefore, while she faulted him for not buying her a honeymoon, she also didn’t offer to pay for one. Overall, such tension and expectations do not seem healthy.
Holly Can’t Cope In South Africa
Ultimately, Holly and Wayne appear to be a doomed 90 Day Fiancé franchise couple. They have experienced a lot of problems already this season, and it’s clear Holly isn’t accepting the standard of living in South Africa. She insists on wearing short clothing and asked to jog at night, even though Wayne explained the dangers of such actions in his country. Holly also demanded many luxuries, including a gated community, swimming pool, and air conditioning. Given their many differences and new tensions, it is currently unclear if Holly and Wayne will make it down the aisle on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 5.
