Stephanie therefore told her side of the story in an hour-long Instagram video she dubbed "Sofa Talk With Steph."
"The whole truth, nothing but the truth!" Stephanie captioned her video.
Stephanie claimed when she and Ryan were cast for 90 Day Fiance's eighth season in May 2020, the couple was still together.
However, Stephanie said she and Ryan, 27, broke up in mid-August 2020 before 90 Day Fiance's eighth season showed her traveling to Belize to visit him because he had been begging and "bribing" her for more money and she wasn't going to cave.
"So much of it was contrived and one of the very first things I want to tell you is during production, Ryan and I did break up," Stephanie revealed.
"I immediately called the producers and said, 'Ryan and I are finished, we are not going to be on the show.'"
Stephanie claimed, however, 90 Day Fiance field producers "hounded," "harassed" and persuaded her to pay Ryan and continue filming the show as if she and Ryan were still together.
"I was no longer with Ryan when I flew [to Belize]. I had to fake that," Stephanie said of the footage that was filmed in October, over a month after her split from Ryan.
She continued, "I don't give a crap about being famous. I [did] this [show] because I knew it would triple my business [as a Skin Envy spa owner], which I will admit, and it has."

"I said, 'If you show me at my office, show the name of my business, show what [my medical assistant] Pam and I do on a daily basis, I'll do the show.' That was one contingency I did have for the show because that was the only reason I was doing this show was because the exposure for my business."
Stephanie also claimed her "cougar" portrayal was "totally inaccuate" and exaggerated because "age is just a number" to her and she's dated much older men -- 25 years older than her at one point -- as well as younger men.
Two of Stephanie's friends, Pam and Shannon, joined the conversation and agreed only 10 percent of what they had filmed was "authentic" because producers pushed them to say certain things, reword phrases or deliver lines with more anger and passion.
Stephanie referred to her ex Ryan as "rapist Ryan" during the segment and expressed frustration over how TLC had hired Ryan after the incident to tell his side of the story on 90 Day: Bares All on discovery+ when she had never been invited to appear on the season's Tell-All or a spinoff show.
In addition, Stephanie said 90 Day Fiance totally blew her relationship with Harris and how he entered the picture out of proportion.
"That story is about two percent true," Stephanie alleged.

"They totally turned that around," Stephanie insisted.
Stephanie said she had spoken to Harris about traveling to the United States on a work visa -- not on a K-1 marriage visa. Stephanie therefore suggested she never had any intention of marrying Harris and being romantic with him in the United States.
"Harris was a fill-in. I had him on standby. Never was I going to have him here on a K-1 visa," Stephanie confirmed.
Stephanie accused the show's editing of making her look like an "idiot" because they'd piece together clips of her talking about being with Harris in America with footage of Harris only appearing to care about making money and getting rich in the U.S.
"It's been a bad experience. It's been a terrible experience," Stephanie noted, before mocking her reputation as a controlling and jealous "villain."
"It's just kind of funny, 'the villain' of Season 8, the person who spent thousands of dollars on a family [in Belize] to keep a roof over their heads," Stephanie complained.
Stephanie concluded her Instagram video by repeating how 90 Day Fiance had allegedly faked and manufactured her storyline along with those of other cast members.
"There has been a huge character assassination. If you still want to believe that, you know what? That's your business... If you want something fictitious, go ahead and watch 90 Day Fiance," Stephanie told the camera.
Part 2 of 90 Day Fiance's eighth-season Tell-All special is set to air this Sunday night at 8PM ET/PT on TLC.
