90 Day Fiance: The Other Way star Evelin Villegas has spilled a ton of tea about Corey Rathgeber, claiming he's become a fame-hungry, attention seeker who has been begging her to do a second season of the TLC reality series and she doesn't even know who he is anymore.

Evelin made the allegations against her presumably now soon-to-be former boyfriend during an epic Instagram Live session on Thursday after he allegedly went on a date in Las Vegas with Larissa Christina Dos Santos Lima, who starred on Season 6 of 90 Day Fiance and Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? with now former husband Colt Johnson.
Larissa had documented the Wednesday night outing on her own Instagram account, posting videos and photos showing the pair gambling, laughing, and taking selfies together during their fun night out.

"Corey is losing it with this show! I don't even know who he is anymore. Like, he's not that guy I met," Evelin said during her Instagram Live session.
According to Evelin, a 27-year-old from Engabao, Ecuador, she had asked Corey to remain in Ecuador this past summer instead of returning to America to film 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's Tell-All reunion special, which will air in two parts beginning October 14.
However, Corey, a 32-year-old from Mill A, WA, allegedly declined Evelin's request.
"What he's doing right now, to, me, it's just ridiculous. Because he left for the Tell All and he's just been trying and trying to convince me to be on the second season [of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way]. He trying and trying to get to have more of this fame," Evelin said during her Instagram Live session.
"And I was like, 'Just stay here, stay here with me, let's watch these episodes together.' Because I know there's going to be really hard on me. And I didn't want to be alone to see all of this. But he just wanted the fame and he went [back to America] and just like -- oh, I'm so upset," she continued.

"[To] realize that in five years after, that the person you thought was the best suddenly is not -- it's just upsetting. I'm just upset because I'm 27 already, it's not like I'm 21, you know? I can not just be wasting my time on people anymore."
During her live session, Evelin said Corey now craves social-media attention.
"[Larissa] will do whatever she can to get more attention, and Corey is that same. Corey will do whatever is in his hands right now to get a little bit more attention, a little bit more," she said.
According to Evelin, Corey now views reality TV as his career and she is unsure if he is only interested in continuing his relationship with her to remain on television.

"He keeps calling me, he keeps telling me a bunch of stuff -- he keeps coming back and forth, and I'm just like, 'I just don't know who are you anymore. I don't know if you want to be with me because of the show or not.' And I said, I don't want to know anything about it," she told her Instagram followers.
"And now he's just looking for people to be with him and follow the same road. But are you seriously going to make your living out of [a] reality TV show? Like seriously? There's other things to do."
Elevin also said she had only originally appeared on 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way because Corey asked her to and insisted his date with Larissa had publicly humiliated her.
"I'm not talking crap [about Corey]. Maybe I am. You know, what you see is what you get, this is just me. Simple life, got into this show because Corey wants to. [Put] up with crap because Corey wanted to. He sold me out, into that situation. Never been more embarrassed in my entire life," she said.

"[Corey] is lost. Lost, lost, lost. And I don't want to take -- I don't want to even find it! I don't know where he went, but I don't want to find it!," she continued. "I know Corey loves me, I just think that embarrassing me publicly -- that's just not cool."
"I tried [to speak with Corey today]. I tried. I was like, 'What the f-ck are you doing?' You know? Because that was a date. That's not just hanging out, that was a date."
Evelin also insisted she has no interest in following Corey down his new path.
"Do not believe you know someone because you've seen them on a TV show. He is not all that you see. He was amazing, he really was. But this show has changed [him]," she said. "The man that I knew is just not there [anymore]. And I'm keeping myself. Because me is still me."
"I'm not gonna play the game that Corey is playing because I can do whatever I do and I don't have to put it all over Instagram. F-ck Instagram. And everything else," she added.
Evelin also admitted the couple was already "not doing good" before Corey went on his date with Larissa and claimed she had actually given him advice on what type of woman he should date going forward.
"I wanted him to, I told him -- you know, we're not doing good -- and I said, 'Whatever you do, just make sure you don't go with someone from Instagram or a fan," she said.
"That's just what I said. Like there's a lot of people in this world that don't know about this show. So it's easy. But no, he wants the attention, so of course. Like stupid Larissa."

Evelin also suggested Corey is lonely.
"If Corey is hanging out with Larissa or whatever. Or with [90 Day Fiance alums David Toborowsky and Annie Suwan] or whoever he wants to be hanging out right now well then that's just because he has no friends. He has no friends. He has nobody," she said.

"Like I thought we were okay, but we're not really. Like for the people that keep asking."
"Yeah, he has no friends," she reiterated when a follower asked her to clarify the comment.
"I've been nothing but faithful to him, respectful to him, take care of him. He is extremely needy."
During her Instagram Live session, Evelin also revealed that Corey -- who has been shown desperately wanting to marry Evelin on 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's currently-airing episodes as Evelin's insisted she's not interested in taking their relationship to that level -- will be shown proposing to her on Monday night's season finale broadcast on TLC.
"We're going to have an episode next week when Corey proposes to me," she said.
However, she apparently rejected the marriage proposal.
"People were like, 'How can she not commit to him?' But I'm committed to me, to what I want. To my goals. And he's been completely okay with them, [he's said]. But I can not -- he can not force me to something that I don't want," Evelin said.

According to Evelin, she will never marry Corey.
"I'm not gonna marry anyone," she revealed near the end of her live session, which lasted over half an hour. "I'm not gonna give him -- I'm not gonna have that white dress. And honestly, like we couldn't even afford anything."
Evelin also repeatedly insisted Corey has not been supporting her.
"For most of you guys, I'm just the Latina taking advantage of the good gringo, when it's not. I met Corey so many years ago, like five years ago," she said.

"And that was it, I've always been a hard worker. He never sends me any money, it's not like he's paying for my rent, it's not like he's paying for my sh-t -- not at all."
"And what he's spending here, I work as hard as he works. And all our payments, all our staff has come out of the bar. The money we make in the bar that we both have and we bought for work," she continued.
"What you see on TV it's not everything. It's not everything that's happened and how things are. I don't need any man, I never did. I don't need any man."
"And for people to make it look like I'm going taking advantage of him -- please, I could be taking advantage of someone with a lot of money if that's what I really wanted to do."

Evelin acknowledged Corey has given her some gifts.

"I didn't take his money... his money has never gone to me. Yeah, he gave me a few presents -- Like he'll go to Victoria Secrets and buy me a lot of stuff -- but that's just presents, and it's nice," she said.
"It's good to give your woman presents, right? But that's just it. It's not like he's giving me money every month."
While she didn't identify them by name, Evelin said she believes some of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's female cast members are gold diggers -- but not her.
"Like, I watch the show too and there is other couples where clearly the guy is like sending them money and all that crap. Like that's a gold digger. [That's] not me. It's not me," she said
Evelin said the vast majority of the money Corey has spent since they began dating five years ago is invested in land he has purchased and the beachfront bar they operate together.
"My life is pretty simple and I am not trying to take advantage of any guy. Corey's properties are in his name. What is in my name is the bar, because I started it first," she said.

"Corey owns his property, and his property [has] increased 50% [over] the value they had before [when he bought them]. So he has the money to do whatever he wants right now. He's pretty set up. If he lost money, it's because he went to the stock market and he lost it. But with me, he hasn't lost any money."
According to Evelin, Corey also has other options besides marrying her available to him if he wishes to become a legal resident of Ecuador.
"It's his money, it's his land. He owns four [pieces of land] in Ecuador. [The reason] why he can not get [Ecuadorian] residency is because where I live, where his properties are, it's like a native community. So you pay money for the land, but it's like a different kind of paper, because it's a native area," she said.
"In Ecuador, if you have $25,000 worth of property or an investment, you can get residency, you can become a resident," she continued.
"That's why he can not get his residency through the property. [But] he can sell them and them buy something in the city [and then get residency]."
