his American fianceé, Brittany, have been struggling over their cultural differences all season long, but the situation has clearly taken a serious turn for the worse when it comes to Yazan’s family’s acceptance over their relationship.
Yazan’s parents want their son and Brittany — who moved to Jordan from Florida to be with Yazan — to get married immediately because of their religious beliefs and for her to convert to Islam. However, Brittany is reluctant to convert and also is technically still married to her estranged husband, which she’s been keeping from Yazan and his family. Brittany traveled to Chicago to complete paperwork for her divorce, but didn’t tell Yazan the real reason she went back to America. In the clip, Yazan tells his friend, Mohammed, that since Brittany’s been away, things have changed dramatically. While his parents initially gave their blessing for Yazan and Brittany to take more time to get married, they now no longer approve after looking at Brittany’s social media accounts, particularly, when they saw a few of the more revealing photos that she posted.null
“After Brittany left, I sat down with my father,” Yazan tells Mohammed. “We sat down and he started talking about Brittany. He said he is not accepting of the whole marriage. He doesn’t want it. He started asking about social media.”
Yazan shares that his relatives sent revealing social media photos of Brittany to his father.
“Those are old pictures, Mohammed,” he explains. “He started telling me that she’s playing with me, she doesn’t want to marry me. They feel that she is just lying to me.”
Although Yazan defended Brittany, his dad said that if he wanted to marry Brittany, he could no longer work for him at the fish market and also kicked him out of the house.
“I spent the first night at my uncle’s. After that, I had to stay on the street for two days,” he says. “Then I rented an apartment and looked for work. I don’t talk to anyone. I spend time alone. I swear, Mohammed, this has been the most difficult, truly the most difficult time I’ve been through.”
