90 Day Fiance‘s Rebecca Parrott checked Zied Hakimi‘s K-1 status on the episode last week — but was this all just scripted for reality TV? But after viewers called them out for faking, she clapped back with a denial. But, an immigration lawyer hit back at what some are saying were staged scenes. Were these recreated for TLC cameras?

Rebecca Parrott Perfect Timing of Visa Reveal on 90 Day Fiance Episode?

In recent scenes, Rebecca Parrott, now-wife of Zied Hakimi, whipped out her tablet while on a park bench to check-in on the status of their K-1 case. As she talked to the cameras, Rebecca said it’s been “really tough” waiting and said the USCIS (US Citizenship & Immigration) site gives updates.

That is, of course, very true. But what happened next, shown on her device, triggered accusations of 90 Day Fiance scene-staging. Rebecca Parrott said she constantly refreshed the site and it says “administrative processing.” Then she sat there hitting the refresh icon on repeat.

Rebecca gasped “oh my God” on 90 Day Fiance. Producers asked what she “just found out.” Rebecca Parrott said “the case was approved.” And she called Zied to tell him. So, incredibly, the producers were right there for that pivotal reveal. But experts don’t buy it.
