“90 Day Fiance” Star Gabe Pabon Asks Fans For Financial Help Amid Separation From Wife Isabel Posada: “My Wife Did Many Shady Things”
Gabriel Pabon of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way has launched a GoFundMe after finding himself “defeated” and in need of financial help.
As The Ashley told you last week, Gabe recently shared with fans on his YouTube channel that he is still dealing with “a lot of financial obligations” related to the apartment in Colombia that he and estranged wife Isabel Posada previously lived in together.
Gabe first spoke about the apartment issue in a YouTube video he posted back in March. At the time, he also revealed that he and Isabel, who appeared on Season 4 of the 90 Day Fiance spinoff, were planning to divorce and that he was struggling financially and working multiple jobs to get by. (He reiterated in his most recent video that this is still the case and claims he “has nothing” because of Isabel.)
Due to the (rather complicated) apartment issue his estranged wife allegedly caused, Gabe organized a GoFundMe this week with a $2,000 goal to help him cover the cost of apartment building fees and lawyer fees. He noted that any excess funds will go towards his divorce, relaunching his business and getting his dog, Milo, back to the United States with him.
“ … the last time many of you have seen me was on TV with me and Isabel’s ‘happy ending’ however after the wedding everything went downhill very quickly,” he explained in his GoFundMe description.
Gabe went on to explain that after his wallet was stolen and his bank account was “hacked” last year, he left Colombia and returned to Florida to make money and to get the situation sorted out with his bank. While he was gone, however, Gabe claims Isabel did not handle their finances properly, which kickstarted the months-long apartment issue he has spoken about on his YouTube channel. (Click here for a full rundown on the situation.)
“ … When I was gone, my wife did many shady things, MONTHS of rent money I was sending was not going towards the rent and the money I sent for my business (GMP Wear) was also not going towards that … ,” he wrote.

After incurring multiple fees and fines related to the issue, Gabe said his “head is underwater” and he is “drowning”– though he claimed this isn’t the first time he has found himself in a financial bind as a result of Isabel’s actions.
“ALMOST EVERY paycheck since before this year has gone to fix problems my wife has left with me and her only words [are], ‘I have all of my stuff, this is not my problem, you should have been more responsible,’” he claimed. “She was supposed to be taking care of the [apartment] while I was gone and that was not the case. So many thousands of dollars I’ve spent because of what was going on in my house while I was gone and it is my fault for what she was doing.

“ … the [apartment] building is threatening to pursue criminal charges … if we do not pay for the damages, [the] ‘negative image the building now has’ and actions that occurred in the apartment,” he added.
(Gabe shared in his latest YouTube video that he was able to pay a $1,500 fee to ensure that the apartment building wouldn’t press charges, though he has not gone into detail about what occurred in the apartment that would have warranted the potential charges in the first place.)
Gabe also noted on the GoFundMe page that he and Isabel are not in communication with each other and that he doesn’t even know where she is, leaving him to handle this situation on his own.
“I just want to get my life back together again,” he wrote.
Gabe has currently raised just over $600 through GoFundMe.
