Shekinah Garner is not going to stand for anybody 'slutshaming' her man .
The 90 Day Fiancé star gave a new interview in Los Angeles about Sarper Guven's astonishing admission in 90 Day Fiancé : The Other Way about sleeping with 2,500 women. Sarper used to be an exotic dancer and his time in that profession is the reason for the big claim he has made. In part three of the tell all special for the TLC spinoff show, the cast asked him about his high number and did the math for how that could be possible.
Host Shaun Robinson said based on the math they've done, the former exotic dancer would have slept with a new woman every three and a half days since he was 18. Sarper shared he was 'not proud" of his actions but the cast didn't seem to buy it. But when it got to asking for Shekinah's number, he didn't want to know and the cast did not like how hypocritical that was.

Shekinah defended him during the special saying it's in the past and she doesn't hold it against him and brought up a different matter which bothered her, Sarper having a bottle collection in connection to previous women he's been with. Shekinah stuck to her gun again and defended her boyfriend in a new interview with TMZ .
"I think it's terrible in this day and age to be like essentially shut-shaming people which is what that is, when you're judging someone based on their body count," Shekinah said. "That's so demeaning, it's so wrong."
She went on to state that Sarper is a "grown man" and he "wasn't doing anything wrong." She admitted that while she didn't think it was a good decision or showed a lot of integrity on Sarper's end, she loves and trusts him. She also reiterated from the special, that she thinks it's all in his past.

In response to the TMZ question about trust issues this admission could conjure up, the aesthetician responded it's "hard" when she's not with him in Turkey since she comes back to LA often to see her daughter. When she's in LA and away from him, she shared she needs that "reassurance until we can build the trust." She added that trust is earned and it doesn't happen overnight.
She also commended Sarper for being "open", "honest and forthcoming" and not "shameful" about it. She gave him "props" for sharing it with everyone as well. She established that there's no reason to make Sarper feel bad about his actions: "He's an attractive man, he took advantage of the fact he can sleep with almost anyone."
Season six of 90 Day Fiancé premieres on TLC on Monday, July 1 at 8/7c.
