Paola Mayfield’s public breakup from Russ Mayfield drew criticism from viewers

The Paola and Russ breakup sent shockwaves through the 90 Day Fiance fan community, who shared their opinions on what went down.

One well-known 90 Day Fiance fan page, @fappywetsock, tweeted screencaps from Paola’s public disclosure that she and Russ were no longer together.

They accompanied the captured tweets with a caption stating, “Russ quit a fantastic job bc Paola didn’t want him traveling, became a stay at-home dad, relocated away from his family/friends, sold his house & moved into a trailer. Fam, stop giving to those that just take. They will never give back & always expect more.”

Another popular page, @this_mommy_says_bad_words, also shared Paola’s Tweet on Instagram with the caption, “tell me you need attention without telling me you need attention.”

Another fan account on Instagram, @90_day_alltheway, posted an old picture of Russ and Paola from the show and put a banner at the bottom of the picture asking, “Is it really over between these two?”

The caption went deeper into their thoughts on the situation. They remarked, “If anyone cares, it seems this couple has split. Anyone watching them on 90 day saw it coming. I hate to hear of a marriage ending but these two seemed always at odds and quite toxic, I remember all of their screaming at each other on the show.”
