On Sunday night’s episode ofBefore the 90 Days: Before the 90 Days Australian native Erika Owens was nervous about coming out to her parents, but it turns out she didn’t have anything to worry about. In the episode Erika expresses that while she feels she can tell her parents anything, she still has not come out to them as bisexual. “It is really scary because it’s important to me to able to be who I am 100%, but it’s also important to me that to have my parents in my life and that they accept me, and I’m not really sure how they’re going to react,” Erika explains about her reservations on coming out.

TLC dropped the first preview trailer for the fourth season of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days this week, and among the six new couples featured is the franchise’s first same-sex relationship. After striking up a relationship on social media, 29-year-old Stephanie Matto from Yonkers, New York is flying to Australia to meet her 24-year-old girlfriend, Erika Owens. In addition to coming out to her family, Stephanie is also taking a huge risk making the trip because she suffers from a life-threatening illness that means “a common cold can kill me.” But, Stephanie is a popular YouTuber with a long resume of view-grabbing antics, so how much (if any) of her story is just a stunt to get on the show?
