Memphis argues with ’90 Day Fiancé’ producers over camera man filming her while nursing

During the 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days Season 5 tell-all, Memphis left the set because of migraine symptoms. After going backstage, Memphis alleges that a camera operator filmed her while nursing her baby she shares with her husband, Hamza Moknii.

In a leaked video (via @merrypants), Memphis said, “I’m sitting in there, I’m sick. I’m throwing up. My blood pressure is elevated. I’m dehydrated. I’m trying to feed my baby. And here you guys are, you guys don’t care about no one. [sic]“ Check out the video below:

Memphis appears to be standing in a stairwell where she talks with 90 Day Fiancé producers and the Sharp Entertainment crew. She is heard in the video telling 90 Day Fiancé producers, “You invaded my privacy.” She said, “It was very violating. There was no way that he should have been anywhere close to [me].”

The producer reassured Memphis that the footage of her nursing her baby would not be used. Memphis replied, “That’s not the point. The point is it shows you guys integrity, and you don’t have any.”

Evelin calls out Memphis for being ‘annoying’

Many fans and former cast members weighed in on Memphis’ leaked video. Eveliin Villegas, who has been on The Other Way Seasons 1 and 3, gave her opinion on the incident (as captured by @90dayfiancejunky).

She commented on the video, “She is just soooo annoying.” Evelin continues, “And ‘leaking’ something like this is just wrong and I hope it gets her fired from the new season she is supposed to be filming.”

Evelin continues, “Camera man follow us everywhere and you can always request to stop and then they do [sic].” Next, the 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way star mentioned Memphis arguing with the producers while her baby cried.

She said, “Baby keeps crying and she is not caring. If she feels so ‘violated’ by someone seeing her breast while breastfeeding, then she should cover it up. In my country women breastfeed their kids everywhere. If you want to cover up [it] is ok if you don’t want to that’s ok too.”

Evelin calls ’90 Day Fiancé’ a ‘job’

Evelin appeared on two seasons of The Other Way and many spinoffs, such as 90 Day Fiancé: What Now?, 90 Day: Self-Quarantined, and 90 Day Bares All. She thinks being filmed all of the time is what they signed up for when agreeing to be on the TLC show.

Evelin wrote, “Tell-Alls are hard to film and it’s long persons of hours, my last one was 12 [hours]. But we get paid for that. It’s our job.”

She ended the comment, “[I] don’t get the point of this video when in the tell-all they did explain that she was sick and needed to go. Hamza seems cool tho.”

Some fans agree with Evelin that being filmed at all times is part of the deal upon agreeing to appear on 90 Day Fiancé. However, some fans take Memphis’s side and think that the production and crew went too far.
