'90 Day': Darcey Tones Herself Down to Please Georgi's 'Conservative' Family but He Fears She Isn't Taking the Trip Seriously
NEED TO KNOW On the July 20 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Darcey was focused on appearing more 'conservative' for Georgi's family as they prepared to travel to Bulgaria Though she was determined to tone down her look, Georgi feared she was not taking the trip seriously and urged her to hide her "big cleavage, your super shoes and your short skirt" Tensions hit a breaking point as Georgi ultimately confessed, 'I'm worried [about] what my family and friends [are] going to think about her and what [they're] going to think about me too, because she's my wife"Darcey toned her style down ahead of her trip to meet Georgi's family in Bulgaria, but he still worried she was not taking the trip seriously. On the July 20 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Darcey spent her final days before the trip doing whatever she could to appear more 'conservative' for Georgi's family — from getting new clothes to swapping out her old, long lashes for new, shorter ones. First, Darcey went shopping with her friend Roxy, who is also from Bulgaria, as she looked for some more appropriate clothing to wear on her upcoming trip. But some of the outfits Darcey liked, according to Roxy at least, still were not conservative enough for the culture in Bulgaria — including one black jumpsuit she tried on. 'I like this one!' Darcey exclaimed as she exited the dressing room. 'It feels conservative enough where it respects the family and the culture.' However, Roxy disagreed. 'You want to earn their respect,' she explained. 'Or they're going to send you back to America.' In a confessional, Darcey revealed she is 'scared, nervous and anxious' ahead of the trip. 'I don't know if his family is going to approve of me and accept me,' she explained. 'It's a lot of pressure.' Roxy said when she first met her partner's parents, 'it took a few trips until I earned their respect.' The first visit, she added, 'was probably the hardest one.' Roxy also suggested Darcey tone down her nails and remove her long eyelashes ahead of the trip. Darcey protested a bit, but ultimately agreed. She hoped that by toning down her look, she would show Georgi that she was 'putting in the effort to look a little bit more conservative.' But, she admitted in a confessional, 'it's definitely out of my comfort zone.' Darcey wound up pleased with the shorter lashes, which she received the next day. She suggested it felt like 'a good compromise,' and hoped Georgi would feel the same. 'I hope this is enough of a make-under for Georgi and his family because I love myself, I honor myself, and I'll only compromise so much,' she explained in a confessional. 'And if Georgi keeps pushing at it, it's going to affect our relationship because I'm not going to open up with a man that doesn't give me the respect I deserve.' During her lash appointment, Darcey said both she and Georgi 'need to put more time into celebrating each other in the marriage.' 'I feel like this is the perfect moment in time to really just embrace our marriage [and] our love life,' Darcey said in a confessional. 'Of course, I want to dress very respectfully for Georgi's family, but they're not going to be with us the whole time. So I want to pack some sexy things!' But back at home, as they packed for the trip, Georgi did not seem thrilled with some of the outfits Darcey had put together. 'Your boobs [are] out,' he stated as Darcey showed him the outfit she planned to wear on the plane. 'I'm going to have a jacket on the airplane!' Darcey protested as she donned a white fur coat, which she felt covered 'everything' it needed to. She argued that she had toned herself down 'a lot,' and pointed out her new lashes. But Georgi did not notice much of a difference, and seemed annoyed with his wife. 'Thank you Darcey, thank you for listening to me with [these] natural looking eyelashes,' he said in a confessional. 'I'm 100% sure my parents, they're not going to notice your big cleavage, your super shoes and your short skirt.' 'What's the big deal?' Darcey asked her husband, who noted this is not the first time he has told her how to dress appropriately for the trip. 'You don't respect what I say!' Georgi argued back, suggesting that people in Bulgaria might think she was a 'prostitute' or a 'w---' based on her outfits. Darcey disagreed, but Georgi insisted she was being 'disrespectful.' 'You don't really care about this trip, and that's why I'm upset' Georgi told his wife. In a confessional, Georgi said he was feeling 'overwhelmed about this trip.' 'I'm worried [about] what my family and friends [are] going to think about her and what [they're] going to think about me too, because she's my wife,' Georgi explained. Darcey tried to smooth things over. 'I don't want you to feel nervous!' she said before giving her husband a hug. 'I want you to care,' Georgi said, to which Darcey replied, 'I do care!' She then said 'I love you' in Bulgarian before they shared a quick kiss. Darcey and Georgi then headed for the airport and boarded their plane to Bulgaria. In an interview before taking flight, Darcey acknowledged that the trip 'means everything' to her husband. 'I want to give love,' Darcey explained. 'I'm a giver and want them to feel my love, that I care for their son, that I've always had his back and I just want to feel the same in return.'

90 Day Fiancé star opens up on what it's really like on dating show
A 90 Day Fiancé UK star has opened up about what it's really like to appear on the hit reality TV show, which has returned for a new series. A 90 Day Fiancé UK star has revealed the reality behind appearing on the programme. The latest series has landed on Discovery Plus, promising viewers a feast of explosive drama and heated clashes. Fresh couples take centre stage as they navigate the complexities of long-distance romance, tackling everything from burning jealousy to covert religious transformations. The first three episodes dropped on July 13, with subsequent instalments arriving each Sunday thereafter. Viewers have already witnessed explosive rows between one pair following a secret religious shift that eventually surfaced. Shorna, 45, maintains a long distance romance with Adnand, 25, but her conversion to Mormonism now prohibits any intimate contact before marriage. The revelation blindsided Adnand, who struggled to process the bombshell on screen. In an exclusive conversation with Reach PLC's Screen Time team, Shorna discussed the heated exchange and confirmed that viewers witnessed completely authentic scenes. Regarding his response to her announcement, she revealed: "I was shocked, I didn't expect that from him because we'd built up a connection. "I knew it was going to be a difficult conversation to have, but I didn't expect him to act the way he did." She continued: "It's all real. Whatever you see with my story, it's all real. I can say it's 100% real, nothing's made up. My faith is important to me and so is my family." Shorna's getaway to Greece with her youngest daughter took an unexpected twist when they found themselves locked out of their hotel room. In need of help, they encountered 25 year old Adnand, a charming hotel employee, reports the Express. The spark between them was undeniable as Shorna felt an "instant connection" during a ride on his golf buggy. Back in London, the pull was too strong to resist, and Shorna jetted off to Greece for a second time, enjoying eight days of romance. The couple has since maintained a long-distance love affair. Shorna candidly shared her experience with filming crews capturing every moment, including the tiffs, as she said: "At first I was like what are you doing, what are you up to but after time, getting to know the producers and the staff, they're so lovely, they make you feel at ease, it was just natural." She emphasised the authenticity of their journey, adding: "It's all natural, the emotions, the highs and lows we had, it was all natural." Defying sceptics of her age-gap romance, Shorna is determined to show that love knows no bounds as she said: "My daughters and friends were against it, I just want to prove age is just a number." Despite initial doubts, Shorna is convinced of their bond, explaining: "At first my daughter thought it was a holiday romance but I said we have the connection, we were happy. We had a whirlwind romance, we fell in love quickly." The question remains whether Shorna and Adnand can overcome their differences, with viewers eagerly awaiting the next instalment on Sunday, July 20.

Rise of patchwork facelift techniques that leave patients with eye-watering stitches - as surgeons say painful-looking method heals FASTER
It's the latest beauty trend that has the internet both horrified and fascinated. Patchwork-style facelifts, in which people are sewn up in intricate patterns, leave patients looking like something out of a horror film - but according to experts, such methods are extremely effective and significantly reduce recovery time. One such procedure, the Firat facelift, has come to prominence since 90 Day Fiancé star Shekinah Garner, 43, showed off the results of her own surgery, sharing a video on Instagram in which she revealed she'd undergone a lower blepharoplasty as well as the lift - reportedly her third facelift in total, and what is believed to be her first Firat lift. The clip left viewers reeling as it showed the enormous facial stitches left over from her surgery in all their gory detail. She shared footage of her face in bandages, which were gradually removed to reveal large stitches, swelling and bruising on her face. While it is to be expected that a major operation like a facelift will leave patients with some initial stitches and swelling, those used in this style of procedure - which also includes the hemostatic net facelift - are enough to make even the most hardened cosmetic surgery fan wince. However, experts claim the technique - which started to emerge around a decade ago - is revolutionising recovery and reducing the risk of post-op bleeding. The unsettling post-surgery look is created by a crisscross of fine threads, forming a tight 'net' over the patient's face, which will usually be swollen and bruised from surgery. The effect is undeniably graphic, prompting some to make comparisons to horror film characters such as Hellraiser. But according to plastic surgeon Ms Monica Fawzy, who performs hemostatic net facelifts at The Private Clinic, Harley Street, London, there's a very good reason for using this method. The hemostatic net works by applying consistent pressure across the face which helps minimise internal bleeding, reduce bruising, and speed up healing. In fact Ms Fawzy, who has over 20 years of experience in facial surgery, claims this method 'decreases complication risks' and also offers patients one of the most effective facelift recovery methods to date. She said: 'This [method] involves quilting sutures in the area where the skin has been lifted (rather than areas where the lift occurs in the deeper plane). 'It ensures that the skin is firmly re-opposed to the underlying structures. 'It was initially applied in the facelift setting by a Brazilian surgeon called Andre Auersvald to minimise a potential complication called a haematoma (collection of blood under the skin). 'It has been consequently taken up by a large proportion of facelift surgeons and found to have other advantages such as minimising a potential collection of tissue fluid under the skin (seroma), as well as helping to re-drape the skin in certain cases.' The plastic surgeon revealed that patients only look this way for 'a couple of days' and can be covered up if it makes some feel queasy. She added: 'It will generally be removed in a couple of days anyway so it is short- lived. 'I tend to cover the areas with surgical tape to prevent any potential patient anxiety,' she explained, adding that she always explains the process to patients ahead of performing the procedure. 'The appearance of the sutures depends on the extent of the area involved and the surgeon's approach. 'For example, I tend to apply it in a limited fashion - as I believe it gives the best of both worlds (decreased complication risk, whilst avoiding over extensive suturing as you may sometimes see online).' When it comes to plastic surgery, techniques are always being tweaked and updated in an effort to improve results and minimise risks. And whatever method used, the facelift, described by the Mayo Clinic, as a 'cosmetic surgical procedure to create a younger look in the face', is a significant operation. The Mayo Clinic's website states: 'The procedure can reduce sagging skin. It can also help smooth folds of skin on the cheeks and jawline. A facelift is also called a rhytidectomy. Following her appearing on the reality show, Shekinah showed off a very different look while attending the Us Weekly and Pluto TV's 2024 Reality TV Stars Of The Year awards in October 2024 - before getting her Firat facelift, but after reportedly having two previous lifts and other procedures including fillers 'During a facelift, a flap of skin on each side of the face is pulled back. Tissues below the skin are altered, and excess skin is removed. This gives the face a more youthful shape.' Speaking in a YouTube video, double board certified plastic surgeon Dr Gary Linkov explained: 'The term facelift is kind of a misnomer in that it's not that you're lifting the entire face. 'It's generally addressing the lower face, the neck area and sometimes the mid face, but it does not refer to lifting the brows, which is the upper face, and so that is a separate procedure.' He added that there are a number of different types of facelifts, from the so-called 'mini facelift' to the 'deep plane lift'. And so the Hemostatic Net lift, and similar procedures which involve wrapping the face in a web-like pattern of stitches, are simply new additions to the list of existing styles of face lifts. 90 Day Fiancé star Shekinah Garner's surgery was carried out by surgeon Dr Mirza Firat, who calls his technique the Firat Facelift, and says he developed the specific method he uses. Speaking about the procedure in a video on Instagram, Dr Firat, who is based in Turkey, said: 'The Firat Facelift is a surgery for facial beautification and rejuvenation. Why I coined it with my name is because I developed the technique on my own.' He went onto say that the goal of the surgery is to 'perform the surgery endoscopically through hidden incisions'. The surgeon continued: 'The difference from the traditional deep plane facelift is that I'm performing the procedure through hidden incisions like [in the] temporal scalp, or behind the ear, and performing a deep dissection of the forehead and temple, the mid face, and in more severe patients, in the lateral cheek to lift everything vertically. 'This is the way we treat aging signs like nasolabial folds and jowls more effectively.' However, as with any procedure, there are differing opinions, and US-based surgeon Michael Somenek spoke about why he is not convinced about the method on a post on Instagram. He wrote: 'Hemostatic nets. They are a real thing but here's the deal! 'They are used by surgeons throughout the world to minimize the risk of prolonged swelling and postoperative hematoma formation after various surgeries, such as facelift and brow lift. 'The idea is that it compresses the space between the tissues, and minimizes the risk of the above complications. However, certain studies claim that their values are statistically significant at reducing the overall incident of hematoma. 'The reduction is about a two to three per cent reduction, which out of 100 people that is only about two or three people when you put it into perspective. 'For those reasons, I really can't justify the need for this in my practice when performing deep plane facelift, nor am I convinced that my patients would really be up or open for this.'
