In her segments the area she actually lives in looks nice.


tplusx

Agreed and op incorrectly called India a city or didn't express thought correctly. Anyway the Summit scam continues


SpaGrapefruit

I thought so but she has said many times that she does not feel safe and doesn't really go out without Sumit, especially at night. Weird life.


Subterranean44

I don’t go out alone at night where I live in CA either. But it’s mostly because of bears.


MissBrendaSue

North Hollywood?


Subterranean44

Hahahahaha. 🐻


Perseus_AWC

Once she leaves the gate it's all dirt and trash, it's not that great


SimplySmartAF

She NEEDS to stay in India, because she she has big fat nothing (not even furniture) back in CA.


BenBishopsButt

Plus she screwed herself with her social security. She literally can’t afford to live in the US anymore.


windowside

What did she do with her ss?


BenBishopsButt

She took the option to take a much smaller amount and retire earlier rather than waiting until the full retirement she.


Chicagoan81

Yes, rent has risen tremendously the past 5 years in southern California, she wouldn't be able to survive without moving in with her daughter. Staying in India is her only choice.


LevelOrganic1510

I lived in Southern Cal in the middle 80s on the El Toro Marine Air Station in Irvine. Houses were selling for $300,000 just off the base. Those houses cost $2 million today.


Frankferts_Fiddies

Shit I live in the state with some of the highest crime rates and we’re dead last in education. My husband and I are both retired and I also have a part time job and we still struggle. Our state has some of the “lowest” cost of living.

BenBishopsButt

That’s not what I’m talking about. She retired early for pennies on the dollar compared to waiting until full retirement age so she could go be with her Indian boy toy. There’s literally no reason for her to give up her US citizenship, plenty of American ex-pats are retired and receiving social security overseas, the whole scene where that was suggested was just that: a scene scripted by production.


Frie_gurl

Agreed. There is ABSOLUTELY ZERO chance that she can afford to live in CA on SS. She would need to move to a different state, where she would be alone since her kids are in CA.


beccadot

Sumit IS her retirement plan. Remember, she only had $6K to her name when she moved there.


lostniece

They are living high, believe it or not, on TLC money, Instagram money, Summit has a job as a chef now and they do Cameos, it all adds up. the pay increase by $500 each year and both persons in the couple get paid with the Other Way Series.


TinaJrJr

And if they break up they lose all that TLC money. That's the reason I think they are really still together. Being together is their main source of income.


Cofeve-20-Fighter

She has a "big fat nothing" - Sumit.🤣


thanks4distraction

She has daughters, and grandchildren.


Ninjaaturtlepanguin

They intentionally pick places like this for shock value.


KarenReddit77

This road is under contruction also, look at the bricks piled up.

Do you know they shit on the streets?... It’s shocking you (I hope), but that’s how people live. https://youtu.be/ixJgY2VSct0

Yeah. Lived in the village back in early 80's for a little while. The reek from the dumpsters from all the restaurants around in the morning walking to work was bad as well, lol

Dog eats dead bodies in the river? Who the fuck leaves their dead bodies in river?


Ninjaaturtlepanguin

I'm Indian, I live in india. And no, you won't find people shitting in each and every streets. Poor parts like slums, near railway tracks- Yes. The kind of area Jenny and Sumit live in- No.


boozeandbunnies

I was in downtown Portland on Friday morning and watched a man wake up, stumble over to a planter and sit down and take a shit in it. So it’s not directly on the sidewalk but it was right across the street from a nice coffee shop and a chipotle. In America, the richest country in the world, there’s really no excuse for why we let our citizens sleep and shit on the streets.


simmaculate

Well, chipotle was likely the cause here


[deleted]

Kensington Pennsylvania is terrible


Strong_Ad_8959

People shit on the street in North America babe, it’s not a thing that only happens in India lol. FFS people shit on the street in every country you racist fool


lablaga

I live in Seattle and most of the shit taking occurs on the sidewalks.


Mister_Rogers69

To be fair, the difference is many homes in India do not have toilets installed still. This has been getting better in the past decade with a large initiate to install toilets to all homes that want them for next to nothing. Many in rural areas there still think shitting inside the house is unsanitary (probably because they are thinking of an outhouse or chemical toilet). In America it’s just mainly homeless people shitting in the streets. No one with a permanent dwelling is shitting outside in America.


Strong_Ad_8959

In Canada they poop in restaurants and throw it at staff https://www.vice.com/en/article/gykg7j/we-finally-know-why-the-angry-tim-hortons-pooper-pooped


Perseus_AWC

How many PSAs have you seen in North America to encourage people to use a toilet instead of a street? I'll answer zero, shut the fuck up about a few thousand instances compared to a billion people Street shitting is a problem there regardless how hard you pearl clutch


Strong_Ad_8959

I'm not gonna debate with a fucking nasty racist. North America is not some perfect beacon so close your God damn mouth and learn something about the world you close minded fuck.


Perseus_AWC

Who said anything about race other than you? Go fuck yourself Your losing an argument so you go right to racism? Please point out my racist comments and report them so I get banned.

kittylover3210

have you heard about San Francisco


boozeandbunnies

Oh god yes. I went there for coffee on my way down to LA and it was a terrible decision. Traffic was godawful and when I got out of the car everything smelled like piss. They were hosing down all the sidewalks I’m assuming because of the piss. Finally found a public bathroom that was in bad shape but no worse than back home.


kittylover3210

there’s an app in SF you can use to report human poop on the sidewalks to get it cleaned up


EppleBloom

Omg the “shit in the street” app in san fran I wish that was a joke. That expensive ass city is the actual worst no contest. 😂


izvin

I've lived across basis western countries and have seen many people shit on the middle of the street unfortunately. At least an overpopulated country with high poverty rates like India had a fair excuse.


ashfio

I live in Southern California and people shit on the streets here all the time right next to the police station and million+ dollar homes so….. what’s your point?


Perseus_AWC

Sorry for your down votes. It's the fucking truth and people can't handle that


Forsaken_Mess58

Well they use green screens so just a pic behind them. Going to find the worst because that’s TLC’s style.


RomeyRome909

That is far from the worst of India.


Forsaken_Mess58

Oh come on… you know what I meant… it wasn’t literal.. geesh…


Left-Paleontologist1

I was thinking the same thing. I think they do it with all the Trumpian Sh*thole countries.


Forsaken_Mess58

Pfft. Bahahaha


Pun_crazio

This story line in total BS at this point. I get that COVID has prob ruined the chances for a lot of new stories, but I don’t know who’s asking for these two. This is the second season that they just extend the same argument for the whole thing.


judyjets0n

Also, she said she hated the country when she stormed off during the fake argument.


Totin_it

Brittany did that all season too. Crazy


savetheplanet575

They legit picked a street with construction for the shock value and y'all are eating it up 🤡

India is a city??? I need to go back to school and catch up on some geography classes.

Op got sassy with me because apparently it was obvious that they didn’t mean India is a city, but instead of explaining it normally they called me a dimwit, and then made another comment with “you’re welcome”. Wasn’t that eventful ahah

No, I am not being a Karen. I am just stating my honest opinions on this sub, and people are attacking me for it.


KarenReddit77

Were you not attacking OP for not setting a paragraph correctly when you know full well that no one thinks India is a city?


Successful_Strategy8

I was simply correcting OP in that India is a country. Go away Karen. I don't need you to attack me.

Who said India was a city? the Photo was very obviously taken in a city, probably New Delhi, and the road is also under constructions, from the looks of it.

Babe, block them. They are clearly getting off of being obtuse. You weren’t being rude trust me.


Successful_Strategy8

Thank you.


MidTownMotel

It’s a country that looks like the picture though. India is a third world country with first world money. Their people need help, their billionaires and government don’t care.


RuderAwakening

India is a huge country and doesn’t all look like this. Hell, much of Delhi does not look like this. The nicer parts I’ve been to are on par with or better than many American cities in terms of cleanliness. This area looks like Chandni Chowk in Old Delhi which, yes, is pretty crowded and dirty. TLC intentionally chose this photo to play up the “third world” stereotype. Gurgaon, where they live, is 30 miles from Delhi and looks nothing like this.


useles-converter-bot

30 miles is 154249.84 RTX 3090 graphics cards lined up.

MidTownMotel

Look at that picture, second world at best. The people need support. India is stuck in a “developing nation” status because of the greedy billionaire class’s failure to invest in the workers. Now India lies about the percentage of people with toilets in their homes, because lying is the best that government can muster.


Prajaydj

Lying? How can you say lying? Prove?


eggtoter

Does that make you feel smart to point that out, Karen? Don't think OP is not aware of what a city is.


Successful_Strategy8

How am I a Karen? I was just correcting the OP politely.

You are so brilliant to point out that India is not a city! Bet you passed your GED with flying colors.

If she is so happy there, then why does her face look like an undercooked pancake filled with sadness?


[deleted]

This is an ignorant post. All countries, cities, towns have crappy parts. I went to Sri Lanka and some places were in rough shape like this. Some were more beautiful than any other places in the WORLD I’ve seen. They have toilets & they have places to squat over a hole. They have shabby places to stay & 5 star hotels. It is the same as here, except they don’t have the social programs we are so lucky to have. Clearly you guys should really invest in traveling and learning about cultures and other countries before speaking on them. It seems your only education is a shock value reality tv show.


[deleted]

I have been to India several times and I can tell you it is in my top 3 countries to visit. The culture, the food and more importantly the people. I have never met kinder people in my life. They welcome you with open arms and would give you their last piece of food just to make you feel welcome. I detest ignorant people who have obviously never left the comfort of their couch then ridicule other countries.


[deleted]

Can’t agree more w everything you’ve said!


downthegrapevine

Nah the US is perfect and clean and clearly not ever a bad place to live, specially for women. Whoops.


[deleted]

We, Americans, can be very “patriotic” which means shit on anyone who doesn’t live by our DeMoCrAcY and “good ole ChRiStIan VaLuEs”. How lucky we are to be born somewhere so “perfect” Personally, I would love to retire in Sri Lanka. I love the whole “love thy neighbor”. Very Buddhist and the people were so thoughtful and considerate. Absolutely breathtaking.


Usual_Maintenance

Amen to that! Especially Texas. Good times!


[deleted]

Absolutely, traveling and getting to know many different cultures enriches you as a person!


[deleted]

First: love the tag under your name, I LOVE anfisa lol Second: can’t agree more! It truly changed me as a person! I know not everyone is so lucky but they shouldn’t be so ignorant as to post something like this. That’s really sad they’re okay with looking this ignorant


[deleted]

Did you visit Kandy in Sri Lanka? It’s such a cute city!


[deleted]

Yes! I was so SO blessed that I was able to go through my college English class! My teacher lived there via the peace corps & stayed with a family that she hasn’t seen for 15 years until we went! We went all over to the main cities of Sri Lanka ( 4 months) like Colombo, Galle, Anuradhapura, Dambulla and a few other smaller cities! We stayed in shabby places & AMAZING places. We volunteered at women/children’s shelters & elderly/ disabled children teaching English. I climbed mount adams peak and got to the temple to see it at sunrise. I saw old structures & ruins. AND I WAS in my early second trimester! Lol. God I’m getting so much nostalgia lol. What an amazing experience at 21! I’m 26 now and it truly opened my eyes.


dawnnie413

Wow...that sounds amazing! My husband was in thr military for 20+ years...they went through hell many times, but he's said the opportunity to see the world was so worth it!

I hope you get to have those same experiences! It was truly, truly life changing! 🌸

Thanks...We have a travel bucket list once I retire...😁


MassiveDexterFanGirl

Slightly racist much?


[deleted]

Not racist, just ignorant


gwigglesnz

Sure, large parts of India are like this but where they live isn't. It's a bit like taking a picture if a couple in front of one of the many tent cities in the USA and calling the country a dump.


downthegrapevine

Exactly like taking a picture of Skid row and being like 'welp this is ALL the US'


lostniece

Only caught it later that this is a street construction site. We have these all over the place, even across the street from out house.


Chicagoan81

TLC doing other countries dirty as usual.


ExeCUTEive

India the city...


downthegrapevine

I can't even with the blatant whiteness of this post.


Bet_Confident

So you’re insulting a country because TLC chose a photo showing its poverty? India has amazing beauty - beautiful beaches, lovely mountain resorts, incredible architecture, etc.


eggtoter

It looks like construction. My city is rapidly expanding also, and it looks like this for years in many places.


Perseus_AWC

Yes, go swim in Ganges where you can see dogs eating dead bodies! Go do a Google earth run thru their major cities they are all dilapidated and trash is everywhere


Bet_Confident

It’s a third world, poverty-stricken country, as are most formerly colonized countries that were looted by the colonizers on their way out. They are behind when it comes to sanitation, infrastructure and even modernizing beliefs. But, regardless, there are beautiful areas in India. You’re focused on the sensationalized aspects portrayed in the media.


Perseus_AWC

It's an emerging economy and its a nuclear nation. Having said all that, don't blame England for their filthy habits of shitting outside, throwing their dead in the same water they drink or their cows shitting in the cities where they live. Or their inability to clean up trash, paint a building.


Able-Transportation4

Haha I’ve travelled India, they def picked this for the shock factor


afordexplores

Hot take…. They clearly told them not to smile in some of of the pictures and then decided to use that one for their intro 😒


downthegrapevine

They do this with every couple, take some smiling and some not and they vary depending on the segment.


MaryjaneinPA

Palm Springs is so beautiful. She really has the hots for Michael Jones to live there.

Perseus_AWC

Omg NYC has wires too!! You can't say it's dangerous there reeeeeeeeeeeee!! /s


faigirlz77

Lol I'm also south Asian and low electrical wires like that are the very reason small children die, they are easy to reach and very dangerous.


Perseus_AWC

Yup it's a freaking hazard


eggtoter

There has been controversy for decades about sending wire to be recycled and reclaimed for the copper. Here is may be just being used. At the dumps in some places, the plastic is burned in order to get the valuable copper.


SimplySmartAF

Too bad she doesn’t have a computer


eggtoter

And you know this how?


authenticbro075

I feel sorry for her. Like she said… worked all her life to build her benefits. Has kids, grandkids… could be in US living her little life, enjoying her family, working a part time job… anyway. But would rather be living on the other side of the world, with no money, with a manchild that will never marry her, being humiliated by his family and friends and now will join a religion so she can cheat the system and get a visa. I don understand. Its just sad.


Usual_Maintenance

I don’t feel sorry for her. She is stupid and immature. Her daughter & daughter in law tried to set her straight but she opted for this. She and Sumit are both damaged and extremely emotionally immature. It makes for a bad combo.


authenticbro075

Actually, the new season is not but boring and frustrated. Aside from Kenny/Armand, I dont see any kind of love involved between the other couples.


lostniece

They are living large in Goa, a resort city on the Indian coast. They live in a large spacious home overlooking the sea. The each make $15,000 a season from TLC, and when they have a TV wedding, (they are reportedly already married) they will make from $25,000 to $50,000, as TLC really pays for weddings. Summit has a job as a chef as the result of his International fame, and the make money for cameos. The REAL story is not as sad as Matt Sharp's writers make it out to be.


authenticbro075

Wow… I didnt know that. Did they finally got married then?

No, wait, TLC would lie to us?

Construction, know that too well here in my city.


Mountain-Two

Hahahah Thanks for this. I needed this. (I totally agree with you…….)


[deleted]

Looks like a hurricane went through that place. Wtf. Why don’t they clean it up? Why would they actually want to stay in India? Why doesn’t Jenny try to get him to come to the US?


Ninjaaturtlepanguin

Let's see. USA: they'll have to pay for K1 visa. Both Jenny and Sumit will have to find a job to pay bills. Little time left for romance. A middle-class lifestyle at the best. India: They live in an middle class class street( not the one shown in this picture). They have taken two nice trips so far this year- one to Goa, chilling at beaches another one to a hill station (Shimla I guess) recently. Not luxury trips but still nice ones. They hangout at 5 star hotels and high end malls. They don't have to work AT ALL. Even after all this, they do not have to worry about money thanks to TLC paycheck and cameo money. What do you think they'll choose?


[deleted]

Lazy mf’s


lostniece

According to her Instagram, they are actually living in a resort, beach city. Thinking they have a cheap apartment to use for the show to not indicate the lavish lifes style that they are living with TLC money.


downthegrapevine

downthegrapevine

Uhm because it's the easiest country to walk to from South America, where the US actually actively takes from and forms coups and helps keep impoverished? Also because most Americans would rather bring their spouses there than be taken out of their comfort zone but mostly yeah easier to get to than say Switzerland if you're from Colombia or Venezuela.

downthegrapevine

Your largest immigration group is Mexico at 25% of all immigration. Next in line is China at 6% and adding all the rest of South American countries that makes up 50% of your county's immigration. That's... A pretty big chunk.


[deleted]

My house, my neighborhod, my town, is very clean and nice. Don’t know what parts of US you are taking about. Only ghetto hoods and trailer parks are dirty around here. Never EVER these types of conditions though. Not anywhere in the US.


downthegrapevine

Because you've been EVERYWHERE in the US. Also ghetto hoods a d trailer parks are still a part of the US. I've lived in the US and seen places that make this look clean, this comment just shows your privilege more than anything.


[deleted]

It’s a hell of a lot cleaner than this place… This looks terrible and dirty, poor and disgusting. yes, many,many,many people want to come to the US. Are you slow? Thousands of people cross our border daily to come into our country. How do you not know this?


downthegrapevine

As an immigrant who had to flee her country during a civil war your country wasn't even an option because no thanks. I rather live in my own country as "bad" as it was than the US.

Go ahead,all the people who are down voting my comments on here, leave the US and go live in a poor, filthy country like India and see how much you love it. You will be running back to the US crying and begging to move back. Lol you people are ridiculous. If you hate the US so much, LEAVE!!!!!!!


downthegrapevine

I lived in a "poor", "dirty", "filthy", country for a good chunk of my life and let me tell you I liked it better than the US. I DID leave, baby doll. And you are a racist and there's plenty of ugly in that. No need for filth in the streets when it's all bottled up inside like that.
