James Believes Meitalia Will Move to the U.S., But She Has Other Plans
Throughout the episode, James seemed to go through the motions of the ceremony while keeping his eye on the future. Though he tried to play along for Meitalia’s family’s sake, he reminded viewers that he didn’t plan on staying in Indonesia. According to James, their wedding day was a temporary escape, a way to soften the blow before he pushes for a move back to the U.S.
On the other hand, Meitalia was optimistic that her new husband would adjust to life in Indonesia, leading to a major disconnect. James’s repeated lack of transparency only raised more red flags, as it’s clear he hasn’t openly shared his true intentions with Meitalia. This lack of honest communication has become a recurring theme, leaving fans worried about the strength of their bond.
