Sheila Asks David for Financial Help After Mom Dies at Home on 90 Day Fiance Before The … on August 9, 2023 at 4:12 pm The Hollywood Gossip

When we last saw David and Sheila, the 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days couple were grieving an unexpected death.

David had just met Sheila’s mother, father, and 12-year-old son. Hours later, her mother passed away.

It was a tragic and perhaps inevitable fall in a house that was barely holding together and clearly unfit for human habitation.

Sheila doesn’t want to go back home until it’s fixed up.

In this promo ahead of Season 6, Episode 11 of 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days, Sheila discusses what is left of her family home. (TLC)

This sneak peek (you can see the full video below) of the Sunday, August 13 episode, Sheila and David have stopped for a casual drink.

Their translator is there with them, as she speaks Tagalog and is also fluent in ASL (American Sign Language).

Sheila is discussing the repairs that her family home (which her father built by hand).

David warns that fixing up Sheila’s house is going to be expensive. (TLC)

It’s going to be expensive to make it into a less lethal residence, let alone truly livable.

David emphasizes this. We already saw her neighborhood and heard David’s description of the smell from the open sewage.

Even though the house is in what looks like a shantytown, it could be safer. Having steps up to code (literally any code) would help. And so would having a roof that isn’t shower curtains.

As much as he might like to, David cannot cover repairs on Sheila’s family home. (TLC)

Obviously, David would like to help. But there is only so much that he can do.

He warns Sheila that he “can’t pay for all of it.”

The project would be essentially building an entire house. Ideally involving plumbing and more amenities that it does not have at present.

David knows that there are some cultural and economic differences at play, but explains that working two jobs doesn’t make him rich. (TLC)

There are definitely some things that don’t translate well between radically different cultures. Economics can be one of them.

David works two jobs, but while that means that he has a steady income, it doesn’t mean that he’s wealthy. (Generally, two jobs means that neither earns enough on its own)

But for Sheila, their disparate circumstances don’t always translate. The power of the American dollar can look great until you see a pizza delivery receipt for $30 and a rent bill of $1000.

Sheila admits that she feels embarrassed to ask for David’s help, for anyone’s help. (TLC)

Speaking to the translator more than to David, Sheila admits how she is feeling.

She feels embarrassed to ask David at all.

Sheila and David really like each other. No one likes the humbling feeling of asking a loved one for financial help.

Sheila explains to the translator that she has been unable to work, which is in part why David’s help has been so essential. (TLC)

But she, and David, both know that Sheila cannot do this herself.

She does not have a job right now. And not for lack of trying.

Meanwhile, David has two jobs. He doesn’t have much, but in comparison, he at least has his own income.

Speaking to the confessional camera during this sneak peek of August 13th’s episode, Sheila explains how difficult it is for her to find work in the Philippines right now. (TLC)

Sheila was gainfully employed before the COVID-19 pandemic.

But this deadly virus killed a lot of people, disabled countless more, and shook up how a lot of businesses operate.

Right now, she has been unable to find work.

It is okay if David cannot afford to fix up her family home, Sheila emphasizes in this sneak peek. (TLC)

David hopes that, by supporting her, he can keep her afloat until she can find work.

Meanwhile, Sheila wants to make one thing absolutely clear.

“If he can’t afford the expenses, it’s okay,” she affirms.

Sheila also wants to stress that she’s not trying to use David for his limited funds.

“I’m not after your money,” she says. Her fear is that David might think that.

He knows that. He just wants to find a realistic way to help with that.

What Sheila really wanted to reassure was that she’s not “after” David’s money. (TLC)

No one realistically thinks that Sheila is a “gold digger.” David does not have gold for which to dig.

Meanwhile, the two of them clearly love each other. And they have a lot in common. They met because of their (lack of) hearing, not on a sugar baby website.

Neither of them expected this tragedy.

Kim Breaks Her Silence After Kanye’s Controversial Grammys

Two days after Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s headline-grabbing appearance at the 2025 Grammy Awards, Kim Kardashian has subtly responded by focusing on her family and meaningful causes. The reality TV star and entrepreneur took to Instagram to share her experience at the @15PercentPledge Annual Gala, effectively ignoring her ex-husband’s controversial antics.

Kardashian, 44, made a fashion statement of her own in a black, backless, full-length dress, presenting a stark contrast to Censori’s revealing Grammy outfit. In her post, she highlighted the organization’s support for Black-owned businesses and entrepreneurs, demonstrating her commitment to important social causes.

While Kardashian didn’t directly address the Grammy incident, her actions spoke volumes. On the day of the awards show, she chose to spend quality time with her children. She took her 11-year-old daughter North to see the stage production of “Wicked” at the Hollywood Pantages Theater and later went to the movies with her 9-year-old son Saint. This deliberate focus on her family suggests Kardashian’s priority is shielding her children from the ongoing controversy surrounding their father.

Sources close to Kardashian reveal that she is “disgusted and alarmed” by West’s recent behavior, particularly concerning its potential impact on their children. The mother of four is reportedly worried about the example being set for North, who “idolizes her dad,” and is concerned about potential comments from their son Saint’s friends[3].

Kardashian’s approach to co-parenting amid the controversy has been cautious and protective. She has reportedly set strict rules for Censori’s interactions with her children, including bans on nudity and limitations on social media access. These guidelines aim to maintain consistency in the children’s routines and upbringing, regardless of which parent they are with.

As the situation continues to unfold, Kardashian remains focused on her children’s best interests, navigating the challenges of co-parenting in the public eye with grace and determination. Her recent actions serve as a testament to her commitment to her family, even in the face of ongoing controversy and media scrutiny.

Bolanle Media Staff

Former President Joe Biden has signed with Creative Artists Agency (CAA), a major Hollywood talent agency, just two weeks after leaving the White House. This move marks a reunion for Biden with CAA, which previously represented him from 2017 to 2020.

Key Details

CAA co-chairman Richard Lovett praised Biden, calling him “one of America’s most respected and influential voices in national and global affairs”. Lovett also highlighted Biden’s “lifelong commitment to public service” as one of “unity, optimism, dignity, and possibility”.

During his previous stint with CAA, Biden achieved several notable accomplishments:

Published his memoir “Promise Me, Dad,” which became a New York Times bestseller
Launched the “American Promise” book tour, selling over 85,000 tickets nationwide
The book tour is believed to have inspired his eventual run for the presidency

Potential Opportunities

At 82 years old, Biden has kept a relatively low profile regarding his post-presidency plans. However, his signing with CAA suggests he may be exploring various opportunities, such as:

Public speaking engagements
Writing projects
Media appearances

CAA’s Star-Studded Roster

CAA represents a wide range of high-profile clients, including:

Hollywood actors like Meryl Streep
Lifestyle mogul Martha Stewart
Sports stars such as Shohei Ohtani

Notably, CAA also represents former President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama’s production company, Higher Ground.

Looking Ahead

While Biden’s specific plans remain unclear, he has previously stated, “I’m not going to be out of sight or out of mind”. His partnership with CAA may provide a platform for him to continue influencing national and global affairs, as well as sharing his experiences and insights from his long career in public service.

As Biden joins the ranks of former presidents exploring post-White House opportunities, his association with CAA positions him to potentially engage in various projects that could shape his legacy and contribute to public discourse on important issues.

What Film Producers Really Do

Published

When the credits roll and audiences marvel at a spectacular film, few realize the incredible journey that brought that story to life. At the heart of this journey is the film producer – a professional who is part creative visionary, part business strategist, and entirely passionate about storytelling.

Film producers are essentially the architects of cinema, transforming a simple idea into a fully realized motion picture. Their work begins long before actors step in front of cameras, starting with discovering compelling stories and securing the rights to bring them to screen. Imagine a producer as a talent scout with an incredible eye for potential, constantly searching for narratives that could captivate global audiences.

The producer’s role is remarkably complex and multifaceted. They’re responsible for assembling the creative team, which means finding the perfect director, negotiating with screenwriters, and making critical casting decisions. But their job isn’t just about creative choices – they’re also financial strategists who must secure funding, manage budgets, and ensure the project remains economically viable.

During actual film production, producers become problem-solvers extraordinaire. They navigate countless challenges, from unexpected location issues to creative disagreements, always keeping the project moving forward. They’re the bridge between artistic vision and practical execution, making sure the director’s creative goals align with financial realities.

Post-production is another critical phase where producers shine. They oversee editing, potentially request additional scenes, and prepare the film for distribution. Their networking skills become crucial as they negotiate with studios, potential distributors, and international markets to ensure the film reaches its intended audience.

What makes a great producer isn’t just technical skill, but a unique blend of creativity, business acumen, and relentless passion. They must understand storytelling deeply while simultaneously managing complex logistical and financial challenges. It’s a role that requires intuition, strategic thinking, and an unwavering commitment to bringing remarkable stories to life.

While actors and directors often receive the spotlight, film producers are the true unsung heroes of cinema. They are the magical professionals who transform abstract ideas into the movies we love, cherish, and remember. Their work is a delicate dance of creativity, strategy, and pure cinematic magic.
