90 Day Fiancé's Emily Bieberly reveals she bought an engagement ring in case Kobe Blaise couldn't afford one. Many fans disagree with that choice.

As 90 Day Fiancé newcomer, Emily Bieberly, went shopping for a wedding dress, she revealed she purchased her own engagement ring, which many viewers believe wasn't a good idea. Although 90 Day Fiancé's Emily and Kobe Blaise are only beginning their journey together, the riotous couple has received some backlash from viewers. For the last two years, Emily has endured parenthood with only help from her family.

Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, Kobe's visa was delayed. This resulted in him missing the birth of his first son and Emily developing a solid connection with Koban. The close bond Emily has with Koban is evident in her protective ways of parenting, which has made fans empathize with Kobe. However, Kobe has revealed a bit of an aggressive side, which has viewers flipping back and forth between the couple. Now Emily has revealed her flashy new bling and her behavior is being criticized.

While 90 Day Fiancé's Emily was trying on wedding dresses with her family, she revealed she bought herself a one carat engagement ring. Although she claimed it wasn't because she wasn't confident in Kobe's ability to provide a ring, nor was it because she's "high maintenance." According to Emily, she simply knows what she'll enjoy and won't settle for anything else. Therefore, if he couldn't afford it, she'd buy it herself, which she did. However, her family and viewers alike thought it was a bad idea.

The primary concern her family expressed was if Kobe bought her a ring, anyway. She claimed she would "suck it up." Although that seems hard to believe, considering she stated she wouldn't accept anything less than what she prefers. Another matter was that she never revealed the ring to 90 Day Fiancé's Kobe and the couple already struggles with their communication. Withholding a big secret, like having a “backup ring,” is bound to create additional tension between the tumultuous couple.

A further worry is that the couple is financially unstable. The couple live rent-free with Emily's parents, who are also paying for their wedding. Not to mention, there are rumors surrounding a second pregnancy. Although she didn't specify how much the ring cost, a one carat ring can easily cost upwards of $5000. For a young couple preparing for marriage and raising a son together, secretly spending thousands on unnecessary jewelry doesn't appear to be a wise decision.

Unfortunately, it appears the primary concern her family has might come true. In the upcoming previews, it seems 90 Day Fiancé's Kobe had a surprise up his sleeve during a date night and might've planned a special proposal with his own ring. While the couple don't always see eye-to-eye, the love and care between them does appear to be there and fans are eager to see how the 90 Day Fiancé couple fare in the upcoming episode.
