Reality TV star Kalani Faagata of “90 Day: The Last Resort” is unrecognizable after her comprehensive weight-loss transformation. The California native is best known for her relationship with Asuelu Pulaa, whom she met while on vacation in Samoa. As her relationship developed, despite knowing about Asuelu’s infidelity, Kalani still decided to bring him to the U.S. on a K-1 visa. She held hopes that he would change in the new environment, influenced by the men of her family.
However, Asuelu did not demonstrate the responsibility and maturity she had expected. Instead, he showcased his incapability of being a reliable partner, often avoiding confrontations by blocking Kalani on social media. His repetitive cheating led Kalani to believe that he had been unfaithful around ten to twelve times. Under the guise of a ‘hall pass’, Asuelu allowed Kalani the opportunity to see other people too. This resulted in her meeting a man named Dallas Nuez, who she felt understood her and received a sense of love and understanding.
Always a private individual, Kalani shielded her personal life from the public gaze. This secrecy even extended to her pregnancy, which she managed to keep confidential despite her well-established presence on reality TV. Similar to her private persona, Kalani continues to maintain an air of mystery around her past, sharing only occasional throwback photographs.
Kalani didn’t experience the joy of motherhood entirely due to a series of stressful life events. During the sixth season of “90 Day Fiancé”, she had just given birth to her first baby. Although burdened with the knowledge of Asuelu’s cheating, she continued her commitment, still hoping their relationship would be successful. However, a break from these tensions was short-lived. Soon after becoming a mother for the first time, she found out she was pregnant with her second child. She quickly began to gain weight, which was blatantly evident in her subsequent appearances and rapidly changing physical state.
Kalani’s weight gain coupled with Asuelu’s infidelity left her feeling vulnerable and insecure. Trying her best to mask her insecurities, she wore loose dresses and used strategic positioning, often sitting with a cushion on her lap, to divert attention from her body.
Nevertheless, it appears that Kalani took control of the situation by embarking on a journey to reclaim her body and confidence. Although she has been very private about her weight loss methods, the remarkable change in her physique is undeniable.
Recent photos of Kalani reveal a noticeably slimmer figure and reduced facial puffiness, replaced by sharper and well-defined features. These changes have been positively received by her fans, with many commenting on her renewed radiance and attractive aura. Moreover, the removal of unnecessary stress due to her ended relationship with Asuelu seems to contribute significantly to her weight loss success.
It remains unclear if the weight loss is part of a revenge makeover after her relationship with Asuelu or preparing for an upcoming wedding with Dallas. Despite the speculation, what’s undeniable is the transformational, positive impact on her life. Not only has she won over a sea of admirers, but she’s also living her best life, an inspiration for her fellow women and a glowing mother of three children. All messiness aside, Kalani has proven that life goes on after a tragic love affair and that happiness is always within reach, even on reality TV.
