90 Day: The single Life cast members Debbie Aguero and Ruben the Cuban seemed like a matched couple on the fourth season of the spin-off show. They share a free spirit, a love for art, and a knack for spreading joy wherever they go. Unfortunately, their friendship deteriorated after filming for the show concluded due to some unexpected offscreen drama.
It all started when Ruben tried to capitalize on his 15 minutes of fame to help a friend in need. Ruben asked the show’s fans to donate a certain amount of money to assist his friend, a 70-year-old man with no family living on Social Security. His friend had suffered from septic shock and lived in a dilapidated home that he couldn’t afford to maintain anymore. The roof of his house had big holes, and the walls were moldy, making it unsafe to live there.
At the time, many 90 Day Fiancé fans were unaware that Ruben and Debbie were not a real couple. Therefore, any actions they take individually off-screen would have reflected on both of their reputations. As a result, Debbie took to Instagram to clarify that she was not involved in Ruben’s fundraiser. She made it clear that he was running the fundraiser independently. She warned people to verify his story before donating, as he could be running a scam.
Ruben didn’t appreciate Debbie’s comment and accused her of tarnishing his reputation. Subsequently, he launched an aggressive campaign on social media to expose Debbie, airing her dirty laundry to the public. Their off-screen conflict escalated and continues to this day. This ongoing drama has taken a toll on 69-year-old Debbie, who is unaccustomed to online harassment. She has become paranoid, suspecting that anyone criticizing her on social media is Ruben using a fake account.
In a recent Instagram reel, Debbie stated that Ruben has been engaging in relentless harassment through fake social media profiles, which involve hate speech, slander, and threats. This behavior has made her feel unsafe, and she described it as psychopathic and cowardly.
At this time, Debbie’s claims are only allegations, and she does not have any proof from the police linking the IP addresses of the fake social media profile bullying her online to Ruben The Cuban. The best action for her peace of mind would be to take a break from social media or give a family member access to her Instagram so they can monitor and block anyone harassing her in the comment section of her social media posts until her off-screen drama with Ruben vanishes by itself.
