The two returning couples are Shekinah from California and Sarper from Turkey as well as Statler from Texas and Dempsey from England.

Shekinah and Sarper were last seen on Season 5 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, and 90 Day Fiance viewers last saw Statler and Dempsey on Season 6 of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days.


90 Day Fiance: The Other Way follows six couples who fell in love with partners from foreign lands deciding to move abroad to live with them.

"One couple is packed and ready to start their van life together traveling through Europe; financial differences and family rifts are on full display, while secret marriages and troublesome pasts come into play," TLC teased of the currently-airing season.

The new season has featured Americans moving to China, Iceland, Ireland, Turkey, Indonesia, and England.

Below is what happened on Episode 18 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's sixth season.

JAMES and MEITALIA

James and Meitalia's wedding day had finally arrived, and Meitalia was shown having her hair and makeup done for her Javanese wedding. Meitalia gushed about how she loved Javanese food and culture, and so she was excited to get married in that atmosphere.


James said Meitalia and her parents had pretty much planned the entire ceremony and so he didn't know what he was supposed to do. James didn't even know the language, but he said he was trying to keep a positive face on.

Meitalia, meanwhile, was trying not to think about how James had said they should move back to the United States. She was hoping James would feel love from her family and want to stick around.

"He better change his mind because I'm not going back," Meitalia noted.

James didn't exactly feel comfortable in his wedding attire, which didn't include a shirt, but he thought his Indonesian bride looked beautiful with her "antennas" and all.

The wedding ceremony began with James and Meitalia asking for forgiveness and then feeding each other off the same plate to signify everything they'd do going forward would be done together, as a united couple.


There were also dancers, singers and performances of virgins "possessed by angels."

Meitalia's sister Anggelisa told the couple that she was happy to see Meitalia so happy, and so she apologized for everything that had happened in the past.

Anggelisa admitted she couldn't control her mouth at the time, and James said he understood. James decided to forgive Anggelisa, who still had some reservations about him, but they all decided to try to move forward as one happy family.

James told the cameras that while he forgave Anggelisa, he was still going to be apprehensive around her in the future and she'd have to earn back his trust.

Meitalia said she felt "incredible" and she hadn't seen James that happy in so long. She just hoped James wouldn't want to leave her home country.

INGI and CORONA

Corona and Ingi had just gotten into a big fight, and Ingi was feeling frustrated and upset. Ingi said he and Corona needed to have a conversation about marriage and talk things through.

"Corona's never mentioned marriage to me except sending me pictures of cool wedding rings, but we never really dug into that," Ingi told the cameras.

"I think Corona created some reality that I wasn't aware of, and if she wants to walk away and leave, then I'm going to go as well. She knows where we live."

After storming out of the bar, Corona called her girlfriends for a ride but nobody was picking up their phone.


Corona was overwhelmed and confused after finding out Ingi supposedly didn't believe in marriage and was not religious. She called him out for talking a lot of "B-S," and she vented, "I don't even know this person."

Corona said felt "stupid" about leaving her career and apartment behind and putting "everything on the line" for Ingi, who apparently wasn't taking their relationship seriously.

Ingi also got "very defensive" about how he had behaved at the club and talked to other women.

"Maybe I made a horrible mistake," Corona acknowledged in a confessional.

Corona explained to the cameras how she really wanted Ingi to commit to her forever and get married.

The pair reunited after spending one night apart, and Ingi admitted he felt "disappointed" in himself for responding to Corona's questions "like a jackass."


Ingi noted his conversation with Corona was blown out of proportion.

Corona then told Ingi how she really wanted to get married, but Ingi knew a couple who had been together for almost nine years without tying the knot.

"There is no way in hell I would do that," Corona said.

"I just didn't realize that marriage meant so much to you," Ingi replied. "I know tons of people who are married who don't love each other... You have to be a little patient with me."

"I've been extremely patient," Corona countered. "It's not like I'm asking to get married tomorrow."

Corona wasn't sure if Ingi was going to catch up to her emotionally in the relationship. Ingi pictured getting married about five years down the road, but Corona wasn't sure if she wanted to take a gamble and spend her thirties with a man who wouldn't commit.


Ingi, however, promised Corona that he could picture spending his life with her and welcoming children together.

Corona wasn't really buying it, but Ingi said they'd have a "bigger" problem if she couldn't trust and believe him.

"This sucks. I feel like I went all in with this and we hit a brick wall. I want to move toward a common goal, and if it's not going to be you, I don't want to throw my life away," Corona said.

Corona was torn about how to proceed because she and Ingi didn't seem to be on the same page about the future. Corona told Ingi that she needed to think about and "re-evaluate" some things.

JOSH and LILY

Lily said Josh never realized his mistakes and always thought he was right. She wanted him to take some accountability for the errors of his ways or else she planned to cancel their wedding.


While enjoying some Chinese tea, Lily spoke her mind and explained how Josh was too sensitive and defensive. She accused him of blaming other people, including herself, for what he had done wrong.

Josh said he understood but the conversation he had with Lily's daughter was difficult.

"She came at me... I should've just answered the question. You and I have had that discussion. It's our past. But I moved here to be with you," Josh told Lily.

"We are taking major steps that will make us stronger. So I am grateful, and I am in love with you."

Josh's eyes welled up with tears, and then Lily assured Josh that she loved him as well.

While Lily didn't believe everything Josh had said, she could see sincerity and vulnerability in his eyes. Lily was convinced in that moment that Josh truly loved her and wanted to see her happy.


Lily therefore wanted to go through with the wedding after all, and Josh said the ceremony would be their "happy ending."

Lily, however, broke the news that they probably needed to cancel the wedding the next day because she had run out of money and Josh couldn't pay for it. Lily had paid for hotel reservations, meals and more.

Josh said he'd try to figure out how to pay a portion of the wedding. Josh apparently had some money saved up but he needed to figure out how to transfer it to Lily quickly and efficiently.

Lily revealed the next day that this wedding payment was a good test for Josh. She knew that if Josh paid the outstanding balance for their wedding, which was just over $4,800 U.S. dollars, then he really loved her and was being genuine.

Instead of canceling the wedding and losing Lily's deposit, Josh gave the wedding venue his credit card -- and he hoped it would work.

"I just don't want to see all of this fall apart," Josh said.


And Lily said if they had to cancel the wedding, she would feel so embarrassed and wouldn't want to face her family and friends.

However, Josh's credit card was declined.
