Tigerlily Has A Traumatic Past
Tigerlily Is Still Healing From Her Past
Tigerlily was 30 years old when she met her first husband. She said she had to walk through fire to get where she is today. She ended up getting pregnant and decided that getting married was the best thing she could do. She described being married as being trapped in a “golden bird cage.” Tigerlily lived in a fancy house and was able to buy the most expensive clothes, shoes, and handbags. However, her ex-husband was very controlling. She wasn’t allowed to have friends. There were cameras placed everywhere in the house to keep a close watch on her.
“I felt like I was constantly under surveillance.”
Tigerlily felt trapped in her marriage. Marriage had equaled prison for her. She stayed in the relationship for as long as she did because of her children. However, she eventually gathered the courage to take back control of her life. Tigerlily’s divorce took four years, and it was a “horrible process,” but she now has her independence, and she and her children are well taken care of.
How Did Tigerlily Meet Adnan?
Adnan Is A 22-Year-Old Model
Tigerlily had told herself that she would never get married again. However, she soon met Adnan. She described Adnan as a 22-year-old model who was “absolutely perfect.” Tigerlily had seen his profile on social media and thought of immediately following him. Pretty soon, Tigerlily and Adnan started video chatting all day long. Adnan told Tigerlily how she always made him feel so happy. Tigerlily and Adnan were chatting and were together for only four months when she started filming 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. However, she considered it the best relationship she had ever had.

Tigerlily is a certified handwriting expert. She thinks one can tell a lot about a person from their handwriting. She made Adnan write a note for her, and she deduced that Adnan’s handwriting told her that he was very “optimistic” and the way he crossed his T’s showed that he had a high self-esteem. However, when a producer asked Tigerlily if Adnan’s handwriting revealed anything about how he was in the bedroom, she said she wasn’t sure because Adnan’s “y” was in print and not in cursive, and she couldn’t tell.
Tigerlily thought Adnan was the perfect person for her, and she was very much in love with him. She was leaving for Jordan in a week after she started filming 90DF. She knew her whole world was literally about to change once she met Adnan in person. Tigerlily was shown talking to her life coach Steph and telling her she was getting married to Adnan on their first day of meeting. She said both she and Adnan knew they wanted to be husband and wife and wanted to be together, so there was no reason for them to wait.
“I know things are so great over a video chat, but things change when you’re in the same room with a person.”
Steph tried her best to convince her client, but Adnan had told Tigerlily that they had to get married right away since Adnan was Muslim. He had told her that a man and a woman are not allowed to hug or kiss in his religion, or even be in the same room “unaccompanied” unless they are married, It’s why Tigerlily and Adnan made plans to get married the first day they met. Tigerlily had also not sought any legal help to protect her assets. “I mean, you could have more money than me,” she added.

Tigerlily and Adnan had not compared finances. She thought that was a “weird” thing to do. She believed that Adnan was not someone who would want to stay at home and not work, so Tigerlily was not worried about that. The situation seemed very “convenient and suspicious” to Steph. Tigerlily was beautiful and had money and to Steph, it made a lot of sense that Adnan was using Tigerlily to come to Texas. She was concerned that Tigerlily was losing herself in the “whirlwind of a fantasy.”
“I think I’m a pretty good judge of character and I’m good at reading people.”

Adnan Is Still Living In Jordan
Tigerlily thought Adnan was reliable. She saw that he supported her no matter what and that he was like her rock, so she could trust him. She knew that it was absurd that she was marrying him on the first day of her meeting him, but she’d gone through a lot in her previous relationship and felt “trapped” in many ways. She did not know that unconditional love existed, but she finally had it with Adnan. Tigerlily saw no risk in what she was doing. In the end, Tigerlily followed her heart, and it led her to Jordan.
