We’re introduced to a new couple in the latest “90 Day Fiancé” season. Sam, a 30-year-old man, has a unique living situation – he resides in his car. On Sunday night’s episode, viewers learned about Sam and his love interest, Citra, a 26-year-old woman from West Java, Indonesia. Sam bravely shared his journey of overcoming years of addiction to painkillers, a struggle that began when he was just 15.
He opened up about how this challenging past turned him into a “really cold, numb person.” Despite his difficult experiences in the “dirty, ugly world” of drug misuse, Citra hasn’t been pushed away by Sam’s history.
In the latest season of “90 Day Fiancé,” we’re getting a fresh look at the dynamic between Sam and Citra, and some classic relationship themes are already emerging. Sam’s introduction revealed the depth of his past addiction and his journey to sobriety, starting around the age of 22.
With nearly a decade of sobriety, Sam is now preparing for his fiancée, Citra, to join him in America. What’s unique in their relationship is that Citra has never judged Sam. Sam says she has the most beautiful, open heart and has looked past his struggles, loving him even when he didn’t love himself.
In Citra and Sam’s relationship on “90 Day Fiancé,” religion becomes a significant factor. Citra has made it clear that her religion, Islam, is a dealbreaker in her relationships. She presented Sam with an ultimatum: either convert to Islam or they can’t continue their relationship. According to Citra, it’s crucial to her family. Sam, on the other hand, comes from a different background.
His mom was Christian, and his dad, a believer in extraterrestrial life, patiently awaited an alien pickup. Sam, in his adult life, has embraced atheism. He expresses nervousness about the challenges of adhering to the strict rules of Islam, such as abstaining from alcohol and observing fasting.
