The 2026 TV schedule is just around the corner, so I guess it’s fitting that the last episode of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way this year had a cast member make a bold promise. Of course, just like New Year’s resolutions, we all can fall short of our promises, and I’m thinking Manon Berryman did that despite her claims in the latest episode.

Launching a business is a lot of work, and for all the time she’d be in an office or out promoting, she’d be missing time with her son. Manon agreed that maybe it was too much, and given these new changes in her life, maybe it’s best to sit back and enjoy her son being little.

I applauded Manon for what felt like a big moment for her, especially after her meltdown following the goat farm. Unfortunately, it was all washed away once I found her TikTok, only to see that she still went through with the beauty line idea anyway. In fact, she’s promoting it pretty heavily as the episodes air, though in this video, she insisted she’s finding a balance:
