Warning! The following contains spoilers for the 90 Day Fiancé episode "About Last Night." Read at your own risk!
90 Day Fiancé Season 8 has been a bizarre ride for Tarik Myers and Hazel Cagalitan, after a strange caveat became attached to the couple's road to marriage. Hazel wants a girlfriend outside of the marriage, and as each of them attempted to navigate around the other's best wishes in the latest episode, Tarik foolishly suggested ringing up an old flame for advice.
The couple's Thai ex-girlfriend Minty already caused problems previously when Hazel found out Tarik was still in contact with her after she implicitly called for their relationship to end. To be expected, things got even messier in the most recent 90 Day Fiancé episode, in which Hazel accused Tarik of staging an attempt to get Minty back into their relationship. However, Tarik swore it was only so they could consult with Minty about finding a suitable match for Hazel.
It was clear in the conversation that the two women don't like each other and that Minty doesn't intend to be any less of a pain in Hazel's ass. It looks like not much has changed since the episode filmed, either, as Minty recently uploaded a video trolling the couple by dancing to Tarik's song "Hawt Sauws."
Obviously, Minty is still more than just a fan of Tarik, though it's hard to say if she's not being driven to continue harping on it for some reason. It was really strange of Tarik to push the issue of a conversation with Minty about finding a third partner, especially given Hazel's reaction when he admitted he'd been in contact with Minty when COVID hit. Even before that, Hazel was outspoken about not liking Minty, so it wouldn't make much sense for Tarik to think Hazel would somehow want Minty back in their lives.
The whole situation is confusing, and I can't help but think it's because both Tarik and Hazel want different things. It seems like Hazel wants a side girlfriend in addition to being married to Tarik, but Tarik is interpreting that as bringing a third person into the relationship for the both of them. That seems like something Hazel is expressly against, possibly due to the fact that Hazel said she felt neglected by Tarik when they brought Minty into their relationship long ago.
Whether the two decide on a third is still unknown, though Tarik's recent social media activity seems to show he and Hazel are still together in America as of February 2021. Minty, meanwhile, has her location posted as Bangkok, so it seems she's there for the time being. Hopefully, the two apparently aren't so bothered by her trolling and are able to live a happy life together however they see fit.
90 Day Fiancé airs on TLC on Sundays at 8:00 p.m. ET. A chunk of the Season 8 cast made headlines recently after they all sprung up in the Los Angeles area, though the jury is still out on what was happening.
