You’ve probably rooted for Joan at some point. She came off sharp, strong, and refreshingly no-nonsense. But this week, that all came crashing down. One single sentence changed everything: “I told her she should leave the house more often… I was testing her.”
Yes, Joan admitted she “intentionally” pushed Greg’s mom to see how she’d react. Fans were floored. “That doesn’t seem like something a reasonable person would ever do,” one Redditor wrote. “It made me think she just said that to save face.” Another added, “That was pretty rude. She’s a guest, not a host.”
90 Day Fiancé: Viewers Are Team Lucille Now?!
In a surprising twist, fans who once disliked Greg’s mother, Lucille, are now defending her. “It’s her house, her food, her everything,” one commenter said. “And Joan’s over here making passive-aggressive digs and calling them ‘tests’?”
The internet lit up with furious reactions. One user ranted, “If I was the mom, I’d throw all their stuff out the window!” Another added, “Joan should be mad at Greg, not his mom. She’s misplacing her anger because she’s realizing she got played.” Many believe Joan is starting to unravel—and not in a cute, quirky way.

90 Day Fiancé: Some Say It’s Producer-Fueled, Others Say It’s Joan Kruchov’s True Colors
While some viewers think Joan’s behavior was genuine, others believe TLC producers may be stirring the pot. “She seemed so awkward, like she didn’t know her lines,” one fan said. Another explained, “Producers absolutely feed lines. I wouldn’t be shocked if this was scripted.”
Still, not everyone is giving her that benefit of the doubt. “She’s not blunt, she’s just a bitch,” one brutally honest commenter posted. “A normal person wouldn’t say that. It was over-the-top rude.” The crowd is split—but the red flags are waving high.
Joan can get her disrespectful ass up out of that lady house.

90 Day Fiancé: Joan Kruchov’s Supporters Are Hanging On… Barely
Not everyone has jumped ship just yet. Some fans are giving Joan the tiniest sliver of grace. “Lucille ASKED Joan to be honest,” one viewer pointed out. “She can’t ask for honesty and then be shocked when she gets it.”
Others are chalking it up to poor wording. “Maybe she just said it was a ‘test’ to save herself after realizing how it sounded,” someone guessed. But even that feels like a stretch now. “She showed her true colors,” another fan admitted. “I liked her before, but that’s changed.”

90 Day Fiancé: “Greg Is the Real Problem” – Or Is He?
While Joan’s stock plummeted overnight, some fans still say Greg deserves the real blame. “He’s 35, jobless, and living off his mom. She should be mad at him,” one user vented. “He’s a loser and she’s an asshole. Perfect match.”
Even Joan’s most intense critics agree that Greg isn’t exactly prince charming. “Greg wants to get married without having savings or a job,” someone wrote. “And Joan? She moved across the world without knowing what she was walking into.” That’s a disaster recipe with no chef in sight.
90 Day Fiancé: One Sentence, One Fallout: Can Joan Kruchov Recover?
It was just one comment, but the damage is deep. Viewers aren’t just upset—they feel duped. Joan came in with a cool, confident vibe. Now, they see her as manipulative, condescending, and possibly even performative. “This is my first issue with her,” one fan said. “Hopefully, it’s the last.”
But based on Reddit’s reaction? It’s not looking good. “She needs a serious reality check,” a commenter warned. “She’s not all that in the looks department. She should be grateful to be living rent-free in New York!”
From “blunt honesty” to “insulting test,” Joan may have just torched her entire redemption arc. Whether this was a one-time misstep or a sign of deeper trouble… you’ll have to stay tuned.
