Tigerlily Abdelfattah, a cast member from season 7 of 90-Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days, has been the talk among fans due to her extravagant lifestyle and her Jordanian husband, who is half her age. While she has often claimed that much of her wealth comes from investments made by her late grandfather, Gary Moss, she has not disclosed that she allegedly took $340,000 from her grandfather's trust fund without proper legal permission. Now, she is engaged in a lengthy legal battle with her uncle to repay that amount.
According to Starcasm.net, Tigerlily and her mother were ordered to pay over $340,000 to her uncle, Takahito Moss, in 2022 after they withdrew funds from her grandfather's trust without authorization. Tigerlily and her mother accused Takahito, the trustee of the trust, of being appointed based on forged signatures.
In a recent Instagram Q&A, Tigerlily revealed that the alleged forgery of her grandfather's trust documents inspired her to become a handwriting expert. She accused her uncle of not only forging her grandfather's signature but also of poisoning him. Tigerlily claimed that her uncle neglected her grandmother, who suffered from cancer and dementia, depriving her of her rightful inheritance due to the alleged theft of trust funds. She expressed hope when a different court issued a restraining order to protect her grandmother from her uncle, whom she described as verbally and emotionally abusive. There is an ongoing criminal investigation concerning her uncle, though progress appears slow.
In June 2022, Tigerlily sought permanent guardianship over her legally incapacitated grandmother. She also applied for a temporary restraining order against her uncle, Takahito, arguing that his calls to their mother caused her emotional distress instead of addressing her financial needs. Takahito's mandated calls were for assessing financial requirements from their father's trust, but Tigerlily believed he confused and upset her grandmother during these conversations. A judge approved Tigerlily's guardianship application, stating that her grandmother would face imminent and irreparable harm if communication with Takahito continued.
The uncle later objected to Tigerlily's guardianship request, citing her financial obligations to the trust. He noted that Tigerlily and her mother had been ordered to pay significant debts and, therefore, could not be her grandmother's guardians due to conflicts of interest. Takahito asserted that Tigerlily and her mother admitted to using trust funds for personal expenses, including attorney fees, and emphasized that both women did not disclose these debts in Tigerlily's guardianship application. He argued that, according to Texas law, individuals cannot be appointed guardians if they owe debts to or have an adverse claim against the proposed ward.
Tigerlily seems to have a messy life and family drama off-screen. Despite running multiple online businesses simultaneously, including two she co-owns with her Jordanian partner, Adnan Abdelfattah, there is no proof that she is making any profits from them.
Allegedly, Tigerlily is just a trust fund baby who is still legally married to her estranged husband, Darren Taylor and receives significant monthly payments from him for child support and other expenses. In Touch Weekly recently confirmed that there is no proof or court document of Tigerlily and Darren's divorce being finalized; the only public record available is her filing for divorce. This means that while Tigerlily did have a wedding in Jordan, she and Adnan are only together under an Islamic contract called Nikah and are not married under government laws in either Jordan or the USA.
This situation leads to the conclusion that Adnan is in the US not on a spousal visa but on a business or worker visa, thanks to the two businesses Tigerlily recently started in the US under both of their names. The lack of legal marriage documentation in both countries raises questions about the authenticity of their relationship and the legitimacy of their business ventures.
