90 Day Fiance star Steven Frend says the show isn't showing his relationship with Olga Koshimbetova accurately, but acknowledges what has been shown isn't very flattering.

On Sunday night's broadcast of 90 Day Fiance's sixth season, Steven, a 20-year-old from Bowie, MD, was shown gathering paperwork in Russia to obtain U.S. citizenship for his son, Richie.

However, since Olga's K-1 visa was delayed, Steven admitted to the cameras he'd like to take their child to America with him in order to not miss a day of him growing up -- but that would mean Olga, 20, would be left behind in her home country, unable to care for the newborn.
"Let me address this because I understand how you all feel. But we, Olga and I; refuse to let what you all see on screen put an image on our relationship if that makes sense," Steven wrote on Instagram Monday night before he appears to have subsequently disabled his account.

"For some reason we do only get a few short minutes on screen so there isn't a lot to see but if I were sitting in your shoes seeing only [what's] on screen I would be scared too."
Steven's suggestion of leaving Olga alone in Russia followed numerous fights and disagreements the couple was shown having on 90 Day Fiance.
After Olga gave birth, Steven seemed extremely temperamental and controlling, and he ultimately apologized for his behavior on social media in which he yelled and swore at the new mother, who was still physically in pain.

"It's not pretty, it's nasty, but most importantly; That is not 1% close to our relationship. As soon as this season is over we will do a YouTube Chanel, showing our relationship in its purest form," Steven continued in his post.

"Olga and I rarely bicker or swear at each other; We have very strong mutual respect in our relationship and always talk out issues together before it causes more. We've learned a lot about each other over the past year and we're sorry you couldn't see the great moments we really had."
Steven and Olga both apparently disabled their Instagram accounts in light of backlash and burdening concern from 90 Day Fiance fans.
Steven, however, assured his followers earlier this week the couple will conduct a question and answer session once the season wraps airing on TLC. He and Olga also plan on making "love videos with people" on their YouTube channel.
"We both really want to show our relationship for what it really is and show who we truly are. As said before if I were in your shoes seeing this, I would be scared too," Steven concluded in his Instagram post.

"I understand certain opinions have been formed but that doesn't bring me down, I just wish to soon show you all who we really are."
