đđ±đ§ Shekinahâs Shocking Makeover Sparks Mental Health Fears Among 90 Day FiancĂ© Fans
90 Day FiancĂ©: The Other Way star Shekinah Garner is making headlines againâthis time not for her tumultuous love story, but for her latest appearance after undergoing extreme cosmetic surgery. Fans are expressing deep concern, with many urging her to seek therapy rather than more procedures, as her post-surgery transformation has left viewers shocked and unsettled.
đ§Ź A Drastic Transformation
At 43, Shekinah has always been open about her commitment to aesthetic enhancement. Known for her glamorous appearance and strong personality, she’s no stranger to cosmetic tweaks. But her most recent surgery, a Firat Lift Type 1 combined with lower blepharoplasty, has pushed the conversation to a new level.
In a candid video posted online, Shekinah shared details of her recovery process, showing a visibly bruised and swollen face, surgical tape, and stitches still healing. The footage sparked an instant reaction from fansâmany of whom struggled to recognize her and questioned her state of mind.
âI had to do a double-take. That didnât even look like her,â one viewer commented. Another wrote, âShe was already beautifulâthis just looks painful and extreme. She needs support, not more surgery.â
đš Fans React with Alarm
Reactions on social media have been intense and emotional. While some praised Shekinah for being honest about her cosmetic journey, most comments carried a tone of concern. Terms like âaddicted to surgeryâ, âcry for helpâ, and âmental health crisisâ appeared frequently.
Some viewers went as far as suggesting that Shekinah might be dealing with body dysmorphia, a psychological condition where individuals perceive flaws in their appearance that others donât see.
âShe doesnât need another facelift. She needs a therapist,â one tweet read, summarizing the sentiment of many. Fans also pointed out that instead of validation, Shekinahâs post-surgery update seemed to reflect vulnerability masked by filters and forced positivity.
đ The Sarper Factor
Much of the fan concern ties directly to Shekinahâs controversial relationship with her fiancĂ©, Sarper GĂŒven, who appeared alongside her in Season 5 of 90 Day FiancĂ©: The Other Way. The Turkish model and trainer was quickly labeled âcontrollingâ by viewers for his strict expectations of Shekinahâs appearance and behavior.
Throughout the season, Sarper insisted on things like weighing Shekinah regularly, applying her makeup himself, and encouragingâor even pressuringâher to undergo cosmetic procedures. He described himself as a man who expects âperfection,â and Shekinah, though often defending him, seemed emotionally conflicted.
Fans are now wondering: is Sarper fueling Shekinahâs desire for physical transformation?
âItâs hard to watch someone change themselves so drastically to please a partner,â a Reddit user noted. âSarper wants a doll, not a partner. Shekinah deserves better.â
đïžâđšïž A Cry for Help?
While plastic surgery is becoming more normalized, particularly among public figures, the extent of Shekinahâs recent procedures and the emotional tone of her posts have struck a nerve with fans.
Some have compared her situation to other reality stars who lost themselves under the pressure of staying young, thin, and âcamera ready.â The line between self-improvement and self-destruction is thinâand Shekinah seems dangerously close to crossing it.
Others worry that her constant pursuit of external perfection may be a way of avoiding deeper emotional issues. After all, Shekinah has previously shared her struggles with heartbreak, single motherhood, and abandonment. Some wonder if these traumas are now manifesting in her relentless physical transformation.
đŹ The Bigger Conversation
Shekinahâs situation has sparked wider conversations about beauty standards, toxic relationships, and the dark side of reality TV fame. Itâs not uncommon for stars to feel pressure to maintain a youthful or flawless lookâbut at what cost?
Mental health advocates are urging fans and the media to approach stories like Shekinahâs with empathy, rather than mockery. âWhat sheâs going through isnât just vanityâit could be a sign of something deeper,â one mental health counselor commented anonymously.
đïž What Comes Next?
As of now, Shekinah hasnât directly responded to the outpouring of concern. She continues to post updates and maintain a confident front, but fans remain worried.
Whether she chooses to reflect on the feedback or continue on her current path remains to be seen. Whatâs clear is that her supporters truly careâand hope she finds healing, not just in the mirror, but within herself.
One commenter perhaps said it best: âReal beauty isnât in a surgeonâs handsâitâs in knowing your worth without changing a thing.â
