After traveling thousands of miles to meet his online girlfriend, Faith Gatoc, in the Philippines on season 6 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, Loren Allen was diagnosed with a sexually transmitted disease.
How Did ‘90 Day Fiance’ Star Loren Allen Get an STD?
Loren learned he contracted gonorrhea after receiving a text during his overseas trip. “So, about a week ago, I was out partying with one of my friends. You know, she spends the night, it’s great, and then in the middle of the night, she was … she went to f–k me,” he explained to producers during the September 22, 2024, episode. “And I got a text from her this morning, turns out she has gonorrhea of the throat, which means I most likely have gonorrhea of the penis.”
He told producers that his “penis was upset,” and was experiencing “a little discharge.”
“I’m really nervous to tell Faith about this. I don’t know if she fully understands that I haven’t been monogamous,” he said in a confessional interview. “I always planned on talking to Faith about having an open relationship once I got to the Philippines, but this probably isn’t the best way.”
What Is Gonorrhea?
Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease caused by bacteria and is an “infection spread mainly by contact with genitals or bodily fluids,” according to the Mayo Clinic. In many individuals, the infection often presents no symptoms, but when it does, it typically affects the genital tract.
Symptoms for males include painful urination, pus-like discharge from the tip of the penis or pain or swelling in one testicle. Meanwhile, for women, symptoms include increased vaginal discharge, abdominal or pelvic pain and painful urination.
Gonorrhea is typically treated with an antibiotic injection, but it can still be contagious for up to seven days after treatment.
How Did 90 Day Fiance’s Loren Tell Faith About His STD Diagnosis?
Loren and Faith spent a day exploring the Wawa Dam, enjoying the sun while swimming and bonding as a couple. However, at the end of the day, Loren dropped that bomb on his girlfriend that they couldn’t “kiss.”
“Well, I have gonorrhea. It’s a sexually transmitted disease,” the U.S. native replied when Faith asked why they couldn’t lock lips.
Loren dropped more details about his diagnosis, telling Faith that it happened around Halloween after a girl from Thailand spent the night at his home.
“They said, ‘I have gonorrhea … and that means maybe you have it too,’” he explained during the September 29, 2024, episode. “So you need to get checked before I give it to somebody. And I said, ‘Oh my gosh.’”
Loren said it “didn’t count” as cheating as they were only dating online and had yet to meet in person. “This is still cheating because we are talking about you go here to meet and that part is cheating,” Faith clapped back. In a private confessional, Faith explained her disappointment with Loren’s infidelity.
“Six months of chatting together with Loren, I thought that, you know, he is so faithful of me and our relationship,” the Philippines native told the cameras. “I know that he sleep at other houses, but he never told me that I’m sex with other girls. And I was never suspicious because I trusted him. That really hurts.”
Are ‘90 Day Fiance’ Stars Loren and Faith Still Together?
After learning about Loren’s gonorrhea diagnosis, the hotel employee was furious, accusing him of being a cheater and a liar, and said she needed time to process everything.
Encouraged by her friends to talk things over with Loren, Faith eventually decided to give him a second chance.
The 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days couple is seemingly not together after their time on the spinoff. Loren — who originally planned on moving overseas indefinitely — is seemingly back in the United States. He was spotted working at TJ Maxx, a clothing retailer, in Las Vegas in October 2024, according to footage shared by 90 Day Fiancé blogger Shabooty.
