Stephanie Matto and Erika Owens have made headlines again, and this time it’s a full-blown scandal. Fans on social media are claiming that Stephanie’s partner, Erika, may have manipulated her for attention and fame, leaving viewers furious.

The drama started when Stephanie appeared on camera emotionally distraught, hinting at secrets she couldn’t reveal due to legal and contractual obligations. Meanwhile, Erika has posted cryptic social media stories that many interpreted as passive-aggressive jabs at Stephanie.

Viewers immediately noticed inconsistencies in their storylines: unexplained absences, secret meetings, and vague comments about trust and honesty. Reddit threads are flooded with fan theories, from financial deception to hidden relationships outside the show.

Insiders suggest producers are intentionally keeping the audience guessing. Each confrontation is edited to maximize tension, leaving viewers unsure whether the drama is real or partly staged. But fans don’t care — they are hooked, sharing memes and creating heated debates about who is at fault.

One Reddit user wrote: “Stephanie deserves better. Erika’s smile is too perfect — something’s off.” Others claim this could be one of the most controversial story arcs in 90 Day Fiancé history, fueling discussions about manipulation, love, and betrayal.
