90 Day Fiancé star Isabel Posada has impressed fans with her attitude on the show. Isabel and Gabe Pagoba are one of the couples that feature on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 4. Since the season kicked off in January, the couple has captivated fans with their inspiring love story, and many can’t wait to see the pair finally walk down the aisle.
The lovebirds met through mutual friends at a party while Gabe was visiting Columbia. The two quickly connected and admitted their intense attraction to each other. Shortly after, Gabe confessed to Isabel that he was transgender — although she had already gotten a clue from browsing his Instagram. While Isabel accepted Gabe entirely as a man, she still felt nervous about starting a relationship with him because it was all new to her. In one of the previous episodes, she revealed:
“To be honest, I was very nervous. It was mostly my fear because never in my life did I think I would like a trans guy.”
Isabel also had fears about their sexual intimacy and didn’t know what to expect from their first sexual experience. However, the 90 Day Fiancé star has since claimed she was pleasantly surprised — noting that Gabe felt pleasure just like an ordinary man would. The duo is engaged, and Gabe has relocated to Columbia to start a life with Isabel. Nevertheless, Gabe still faces the uphill task of coming out to Isabel’s family as transgender. Although Isabel’s kids have already welcomed him into the family, he fears his truth might be too much for them.
Isabel Is So Accepting Of Gabe
As Gabe struggles with coming out to Isabel’s family, she has continued to reassure him of her commitment to their relationship. The Columbian native has impressed fans with her behavior on the show, and they have been very vocal about their admiration for her. On Reddit, u/here2troll1970 started a thread about Isabel with the tagline, “Isabel, IMO, may be the coolest person ever on any of these shows.” However, u/Barracuda_Intrepid agreed,
“Completely agree! She seems so open-minded, accepting, and genuine. Ik this is tv, but from what we can see, her demeanor is so likable, and I wish there were more people like her in the world.”
Another user highlighted how Gabe and Isabel’s interactions have been “so sweet.” The user also pointed out how the couple seemed to genuinely care for each other. More importantly, the user noted how Isabel gives Gabe confidence to be himself. Nonetheless, some users opted to focus on how Gabe and Isabel’s storyline has been quite informative and shed a lot of light on the challenges faced by transgender people. While commenting, u/deepandarkblueocean wrote,
“The fact that they are being so open and honest with such an extremely personal story is both brave and commendable.”
90 Day Fiancé star Isabel is very Likable
Unlike some of the other cast members of the show, who fill up every episode with toxic content, it has been nearly impossible to create any drama around Isabel’s relationship with Gabe. Isabel has proven to be a rare breed, and fans of the show have run out of superlatives to describe her. When viewers think they have seen the best of Isabel in one episode, she catches them off guard with more goodness in the next episode. While commenting on the thread, u/Kawil12 said,
“She’s probably one of the best this show has ever had. She’s just so fucking cool. A really great person.”
Another fan u/iwantahouse added,
“By far one of the best, kindest, most genuine people we’ve seen on the show! I love her!”
Meanwhile, another fan, u/searedscallops, pleaded with producers to cast more “wholesome” people like Isabel. The user also agreed with the OP, declaring love for the reality star. Isabel and Gabe may not have been together for so long, but they already look like the real deal. Hopefully, Isabel’s parents see the world the way she does and don’t pose a stumbling block to the pair’s blossoming relationship.
