90 Day Fiancé: The Real Reason Liz Woods Continually Returned to Big Ed Brown
90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? star Liz Woods has finally revealed the real reason she stayed with Big Ed Brown despite all their problems. Big Ed tends to date younger women and sabotages his relationships when things don’t go according to his wishes. He pushed Liz into dating him after meeting her on 90 Day: The Single Life and fans watched the romance crash and burn even before season 1 reached its finale. Liz was resistant but shockingly agreed to be Big Ed’s girlfriend, and then kept coming back to him more than a dozen times.
Fans believed Liz was low on self-esteem and was love-bombed by Big Ed into thinking he was the best she could ever have. Liz had been married twice before meeting Big Ed and her latest relationship before him had allegedly been toxic and abusive. Liz may have seen Big Ed as a saint compared to her ex, but that didn’t mean she couldn’t see his negative traits the 15 times they split after that. Liz’s devotion to Big Ed has forever confused viewers. Some theories even suggested Liz was faking it with Big Ed to make it big.
