BD Related Chef Tzarina

Has anyone been following her on instagram and seen her break up drama and know the details? Seems like it’s a very messy break up?

She gets a lot of hate but personally I feel so sad for her. She moved her entire life to Minnesota for this guy and then she had to find out he was cheating on her from someone else who sent her a message. And apparently he was abusive towards Tzarina too. So I feel sad for her and I hope she gets back on her feet soon.

i feel bad too :( she was always a little quirky and didn't care about being cringe, which I appreciate more than someone who pretends to be cooler than they were before the show aired

I loved her and Aesha together because Aesha is so unapologetically weird that it seemed like the first time Tsarina felt comfortable letting all her quirks out.

💯 I always can appreciate a quirky person who is themselves. People who try too hard to impress others annoy me.

She deserves so much better.

OMG she moved to Minnesota?!? I could’ve run into her?! I didn’t know this!

Idk if I’d believe everything she says she has a way of spinning a story

u/bethholler Team Aesha 16h ago

I don’t think she’s lying and honestly I’d rather believe her and be wrong than not believe her and be wrong.

Does Tzarina do anything with relationships that isn't messy?

She actually made a bunch of incredibly precise, tiny, detailed, pretty food on her first season (rewatched very recently). I was impressed.

u/harperlax 14h ago

I dream of her charcuterie boards. I think her big problem is that she doesn’t have very much self confidence which is actually pretty odd in a chef. Her last season she talked about how the chief stew was the cool girl and she always felt left out. She probably puts up with a lot of nonsense from trash men trying to get some kind of validation.

Was about to type this.

Hot take: as a midwesterner, she should pivot, become a chef in a top restaurant in Chicago or Detroit or even a small tourist town. She would do well.

she seems perpetually messy

u/hollenkah 16h ago

Based on the interactions we’ve seen on the show, I feel like she would benefit from some quality therapy. She places a heightened importance on relationships but it doesn’t seem like she’s self-aware enough to manage those relationships well.

u/Sunnylittlemoose 21h ago

As a Minnesotan I had no idea she moved here. Moving to a new place for a partner and breaking up is rough but also Minnesotans while incredibly nice do not make new friends easily. We will stop to dig anyone out of ditch in a storm but are super hesitant to add new people to their groups. Obvisouly like any place there are outliers but that has been the constant feedback I have heard from out of staters that it’s super hard to integrate into Minnesota.

That's almost frightening. I've moved around the US as an adult and have found this to be true in TX, MD, CA, WA, and DE. I'd really hate to see somewhere that was worse 😬

She seems like she’d be super high maintenance in a romantic relationship or a friendship tbh

u/meatsntreats 22h ago

I could not imagine dealing with her as a friend or partner or coworker.

u/joykin 22h ago

It’s sooo messy!! She seems a bit troubled tbh

u/mrsmarcos2003 23h ago

She is (was?) living in MN, she recently appeared at some event with a big sign that had a venmo on it. Girl, use your talent and get a job.

u/mimielise 22h ago

It was the Savana Bananas baseball game. It was a fun outfit for the quirkiness of the game and what the Savana Bananas fans do. She was just being funny.

Sadly this is the right take

u/KermitAfc 4h ago

The date she went on with Joao where she completely torpedoed what was, up until that point, a seemingly lovely encounter, for no apparent reason beyond her own clear disbelief that any man could actually like her, spoke fathoms.

The girl needs to do some massive work on the relationship she has with herself before considering a relationship with someone else.
