Jenny Slatten and Sumit Singh want to return to 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, but the network should avoid casting them again. The California woman and the Indian man seemed like an impossible match initially. They had too many barriers, such as cultural and family problems, that weren’t fixable. Sumit and Jenny also had a huge age gap that made them incompatible. Yet, they were able to find a solution and overcome all the hurdles. The couple tied the knot in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 3 finale a few years ago.
Jenny married Sumit without the permission of his family. It became a big problem in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 7, leading to major arguments. Ultimately, Sumit and Jenny didn’t break up under pressure. They continued their relationship and became one of the most compatible pairs in the franchise’s history. Over the months, Jenny and Sumit have thrived together. They’ve achieved various milestones, celebrated festivals, and settled in India. The couple has a huge following on social media, where they share their latest adventures. They seem content with their harmonious lives.
Jenny and Sumit’s story was over after 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 7.However, Jenny recently surprised social media users by showing interest in rejoining the franchise and sharing the next chapter of her life with viewers. In May 2024, she commented on the official 90 Day Fiancé casting Instagram page @90dayfiancecast and asked them to cast her again. Jenny wrote, “Jenny and Sumit would love to be back on the other way,” adding that there’s more to her story than what happened last time. She posted a praying hand emoji, showing eagerness to rejoin the spin-off.
An Instagram user commented, “please don’t come back,” begging Jenny not to return to the spin-off. Another user responded, “they are so boring,” asserting that the couple is no longer interesting. Jenny does want to join the show because she feels there’s more to her and Sumit’s story. However, fans are fed up with them and don’t want to see them return for the fifth time.
Jenny and Sumit’s story has become boring, which is a big reason fans are against their return. When the couple first debuted in the franchise, their story was full of twists and turns. From Sumit’s catfish scandal to his first marriage, it was adventurous and very entertaining. Unfortunately, that is no longer the case. Jenny has no hurdles left as she has already married her beau. Sumit also settled down and claimed he didn’t want to move to the United States. Therefore, the network has no reason to cast them, as they probably don’t have much to offer.
Over the years, fans have seen every kind of drama between Jenny and her in-laws. They’ve seen Sumit’s mom forcing Jenny to do chores and trying to break her spirit. Last time, fans saw Sumit’s parents disown him for marrying Jenny, only to reconcile with him later. Therefore, it doesn’t seem like anything else is left in the couple’s story besides little hiccups.
90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way is an interesting spin-off. It showcases Americans trying to understand their partner’s culture and live according to their norms. The spin-off works well with newcomers because fans get to see something new each time. At the same time, it becomes unbearable every time some old cast members return to it. An example of this comes from season 5, where Armando Rubio and Kenny Niedermeier failed to engage fans. They had the most boring story because they adapted perfectly to each other’s cultures.
Jenny and Sumit’s ongoing situation is similar to Armando and Kenny’s. They are together and understand each other well. Moreover, Jenny has fully embraced Indian culture and has become just as Indian as Sumit. She loves celebrating Hindu festivals, understands traditions, and welcomes cultural changes. Jenny isn’t rebellious like her co-star, Kimberly Rochelle, who refused to accept her Indian beau’s family. She’s much more gentle and a sweet woman. Over the months, Jenny has posted many videos of her life in India. She seems much more peaceful and content in the Asian country.
Sumit and Jenny are living their best lives in India. They’ve come a long way and resolved many of their issues. Not only has Sumit reconciled with his mother, but he has also re-established a connection with his family. He and Jenny often visit their loved ones and celebrate festivals together. Sumit and Jenny are also more in love than before. Many of the couple’s videos show them traveling across India.
Sumit and Jenny can make their story interesting in only a few ways. One such way is for Jenny to take the next step in becoming more Indian for her husband and learn Hindi. She could do this while looking for the perfect surrogate, as Sumit has shown interest in becoming a father. Jenny can also make her story more engaging by applying for Sumit’s spousal visa in the U.S.. If Jenny and Sumit want to return to 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, they’ll have to bring something new to the table.
