To me even since Happily Ever After she’s been really really let down by Asuelu and his family are willing to have them live in poverty because of their own expectations.

Sure there are cultural expectations and things, but surely if you know your grandchildren would suffer because of the amount of money you’re asking for you’d either dial it back or not ask at all.

Sure Kalani teams up with her sister but I think it’s because she feels utterly unheard in her relationship. Can you blame her? Asuelu and her don’t have the same love language at all and they have a huge barrier in terms of language and culture.

Just my thoughts.

      Let’s think this through. You have two young children and you’re filming a show that will last at least a few weeks. Maybe it would be difficult for them to be separated from their parents?

        Probably more difficult for them to see this when they’re older. Maybe? Also, if kolini didn’t go to the resort also I wonder if she could have cared for them. Or maybe… for the sake of their children they shouldn’t have let this play out on tv or social media?

          That’s still no excuse to have Kolini on camera. No one else gets to have emotional support there. Kalani and Kolini shouldn’t be a package deal and they are hardly the Kardashians.

    It’s not “dislike” as much as it’s “why is this dead end relationship still being trotted around?”. She should be on The Single Life well before this point.

      This is what happens when you have a one night stand with a stranger then find out you’re pregnant and decide to get married.

        She has stated this isn’t the case and it was exaggerated for tv. I don’t remember the exact amount for time, but I feel like she said they spent a few weeks together before hooking up, in her recent ig story clarification post.

        And yet people only seem to hold her accountable for this, as though people think she deserves the way her husband has treated her because ‘what do you expect?’. It’s kinda messed up that people think she deserves poor treatment simply because she rushed into a relationship.

          It’s not that she deserves it. She made a mistake. Very human, though some of us would have avoided taking vacation snack play further than what it is. But there would be no Asuelu drama if she didn’t bring him. I highly doubt he had even thought to come here to be with her.

            He’s definitely not the sharpest tool in the shed but people seem to infantilize him and place all responsibility on kalani, and that’s not really fair.

          I don’t think she deserves to be treated like that, I’m just saying it’s not shocking that their marriage didn’t work out. Getting married because you feel like your have to instead of because you want to is never a good idea.

            The thing is you can know someone a long time and still get cheated on and end up having a messy relationship. This is literally what happens to people who DO get to know each other too. Though I get your point about jumping into a relationship without thought, it’s never a good move, especially when you go straight to having kids. That’s fair.

        That is so so wrong. It’s like she got pg then family forced the marriage when neither one really wanted it. If all you have is a baby or two keeping you together you need to reevaluate your situation before this shit happens.

    I don’t dislike her but I dislike what she’s doing right now and the narrative she keeps trying to trot out on social media after an episode airs. Specifically, I’m referring to the strip club episode and then the boy/girl math post she created afterward. If the timeline on the show is accurate, she hooked up with her side piece before the guys went to the strip club. I do think it’s wrong that Asuelu cheated on her (feel like I need to include that for the 12 year olds who don’t understand that we’re talking about Kalani on this post) but she also lost the moral high ground this past episode. She’s clearly over the marriage. There is no salvaging it now. However, she’s being as shady as he is and now she’s down in the mud alongside him.

      She’s crazy… honestly super manipulative and she’s throwing her kids dad under the bus to justify her cheating and moving on to the hall pass. Most recent episode I’m watching right now. She literally asked him to do the divorce like immediately. She wants a divorce she can move on with her new man. Like she left the husband and kids at the marriage resort and f’d her hall pass… wtf kind of behaviour is this?! That’s why she keeps trying to distract everyone by the never ending bashing of asuelu, so we can’t focus on the shit she’s doing

    Kalani and her Ug-O sister think they are all that and 2 troughs of slop. Relax chinstrap, you aren’t turning any heads except maybe at the CNIB picnic.

    Kalani is so fat if she rolls over in bed she falls off both sides.

    I just think she’s an ass as well after how they started on their first season.

    She brought him here and then essentially made sure her family hated him, so he had to live with a bunch of people that openly hated him because his wife constantly talked shit on him and then wondered why he essentially checked out of the relationship isolated and stuck with a bunch of people that didn’t like him.

    They are both douchebags and I’m not going to pretend one is good just because the other is worse

    She needs to get off social media. This constant need to “clap back” at her “haters” isn’t making anyone in her situation look good and it’s really immature.

    Log off social media and enjoy your time with your children, Kalani. And work out your divorce and relationship with hall-pass guy away from TLC and Instagram.

    You cant “make up” for a bad relationship by flaunting an affair on tv, while your children are in the room next door. He did her wrong, she needs to end the relationship immediately and move on

    She’s annoying and stupid. And TLC seems to think they have some goldmine in that they are giving her obvious special treatment when she just an idiot. She’s been making stupid decisions from day one. And she’s arrogant. Yes she’s pretty but this trying to be the Samoan Kardashians is just irritating.

    If she ever made a good decision maybe I’d feel different but she’s pretty cocky for someone who can’t stop Making poor decisions and lying. Yes your husband is an asshole. She ignored red flags and kept up ignoring them for years and through 2 children.

    This idiot is on a reality TV show, had a ‘hall pass’ which is stupid but I understand it to mean she can cheat once.

    She finds someone to cheat with and makes a video with them? Ok, you’re on a reality tv show, you have 2 kids, you are supposedly ‘working on your marriage’ and you make a sex video with a person you just met? That’s not going to end well.

    She takes stupid life-changing risks, like getting pregnant, making sex videos and then acts surprised when shit happens. Whoever this guy is, she likes him now but how does she make sure those videos stay private when he’s not interested anymore?

    She’s a complete idiot. That’s the kind of thing you do in a committed, trusting relationship. Not on a ‘hall pass’ with a hookup.

    Because the solution to your shitty relationship isn’t to go sleep with someone else. “Woe is me, I have to decide between these two men, poor me.” Grow up and learn to stand on your own two feet, ffs. They’re both immature children.

    I don’t hate her I just feel bad. I see my friends in her when it comes to dating/marrying/having kids with someone who they WISH their partner was and not the reality of who their partner is. It’s easy for me to judge and be like damn if you got to know them as a person and had self respect beforehand it wouldn’t even have gotten that far to where you’re now unhappily married with kids. BUT kids don’t come with a return policy and they’re already here. And relationships are complicated and people are not flawless pawns who always make the right move. Which is a good reason why I actually watch the show. Their flaws and inability to give up on a relationship they’ve put so much into makes them relatable humans because it does happen a lot. In light of news she’s talked about on her Instagram I wish a healing road for her for where the first time in her life she can focus on herself, figuring out who that is, and how to pick up the pieces and move on because I can’t imagine she’s staying with him still, but I don’t know. I can’t imagine I’d be a good partner now if I had not spent time single figuring myself out and how I cope before bringing someone else and future kids into it, but everyone’s different and it’s never too late to give yourself a chance.

    I dislike her because of her “I want to stay together for our family” BS. First of all, letting your children grow up in a fake family life is not as good for them as she seems to think it is. Having them see all this, the fake therapy, her hall pass flying in and her taking a night off to go F him, Asuelu cheating, it’s all quite toxic for them. So the keeping her family together schpiel is BS, especially now with her rape accusation. That’s why I dislike her. Oh, and being Samoan yet being embarrassed at Asuelu’s haka at the airport. She seemed very snooty LA girl from jump.

    Did anyone notice every time she wiped her eyes when she was crying, her face was dry as a desert. Not ONE tear. (Honestly, at times neither did he)
