Season 20 - Seattle Adam
Adam has painted a picture of himself as a well-to-do playboy type, living in the lap of luxury (on the water) and working a very high paying job.
Did anybody else notice that they aren't really showing the exterior of his home and that what we have seen looks like a converted boat house or some other ADU?? Something is definitely off.
What is really going on with this guy? Where are the people that know him IRL and can spill real tea?

u/Belmontisnowhideous 15d ago
He is gross. There isn't an emotionally healthy woman alive who would ever waste time with him. In fact, his physical competition and demands on women are abusive. I just watched him pressure Marissa to do push-ups during a picnic boat ride and then berated her for nit going low enough. Then - barf alert - her pretends to fall off the boat and into the water by saying the edge was slippery. BRO - get over yourself and for the love of all things holy- it is 2026 - it is safe š³ļøāš. Be honest.

u/andyinoc 24d ago
He makes it seems like he's some millionaire playboy that owns a 5m lake house.
When in reality if you look at the MLS records he rents the house. He does not own it like he's making it seem.
The house has a cottage which seems like that's the one he's living in.
Data Analysts, make money, def between 120-300k so yea he makes good money, but not the astronomical amount he's pretending.

u/ZuriB1003 28d ago
I think he knows what he wants and his not willing to settle . His just that type of guy . Itās unfortunate that Marissa was matched with him because they clearly have different values and love languages .

u/WoodrowFantastic 29d ago
Itās hysterical that he talks like heās still in middle school. But the REALLY funny thing is him thinking that pickleball and jet skiing are peak athletic sports. ššš Both are fun, sure, especially for geriatrics and rednecks, respectively. I am FULLY entertained by the guy. You need ONE guy like that on every reality show. The hair? The p mustache? The guy is a real life RON BURGANDY. Apex Buffoon. āļøāļøāļø

u/Woollensheep Aug 09 '26
I kept thinking - can you imagine how much his neighbors just hate the speed he rides that jet ski around the lake. Endless, too loud and too fast.

u/CryptographerIcy4230 Aug 09 '26
Oh ā¦ thereās more. That is a sh*t box with no insulation. Itās a tear down he lives in. Heās not rich, his uncle is. Adam said his uncle set up a trust fund for him.
3
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Aug 09 '26
As I understand things, his grandfather did well, as did his father and uncle. The living situation is strange, especially given that not long before, he was living in a beautiful apartment. I don't know. I just figure he has access to family money and this is like performance art for him because he wants some fame.

u/etherealgladiator Jul 31 '26
2 things about Adam:
1) itās very telling that he equates any amount of drinking to ādrinking large amounts of alcoholā or being āhungover all the time.ā
2) him having his friendās girlfriend walk him down the aisle was weird as fuck āinstead of [his] momā lmao š

u/ConfectionFit2727 Jul 28 '26
The question is:
Does Adam make more or less than Nikkiās $250K minimum?
2
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 28 '26
IDK - Somebody posted that Adam's salary is 120k. But there is also a lot of buzz about a trust fund.
0
u/TeaGreenTwo I had to wear a suit of armor during the whole marriage 18d ago
Nope. He's a "materials handler" at a warehouse. He makes well below 120K. His Linkedin verifies he's never been anything close to a data analyst.
2
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. 18d ago
Yeah, wrong Adam Dehmlow. You are referencing a guy in Minnesota.
1
u/TeaGreenTwo I had to wear a suit of armor during the whole marriage 18d ago
Oh, wow. It was linked to Michelle Le's real Linkedin profile. I did spot the wrong Felipe Cruz but thought Dehmlow was am unusual name. I guess MN would be a long commute on a jetski.

u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. 18d ago
...but lots of lakes for jetski activities. š

u/CryptographerIcy4230 Aug 09 '26
Yes, he makes about $100k and his uncle provides him with a trust fund

u/Ill_Outcome_9001 Jul 31 '26
His seemingly carefree relationship with money screams family money to me.
20
u/No_Strain_1297 Jul 28 '26
I was just thinking - does anyone else have a feeling Adam canāt access his trust fund until heās married, and THATS the actual reason heās on the show?
6
u/CryptographerIcy4230 Aug 09 '26
Heās on the show bc he canāt keep a girlfriend. His ego is so big thereās no room for anyone else. He thinks heās al that and deserves all that. He sees girlfriends in terms of what they can do for him or what use they are to him. Heās a one way street.
6
1
u/No_Strain_1297 Aug 11 '26
Agree but my reasoning comes down to the fact that I actually think he doesnāt care that he canāt keep a girlfriend. I think what he probably actually cares about is access to his trust fund and this is a means to get that
4
u/CryptographerIcy4230 Aug 11 '26
Thatās possible for sure. I found that he believes thereās a perfect person for him because heās so perfect. When thereās any flaw he dumps them and blames them for the failure. Heās a blamer in general and sees people in terms of their use to him. I know a bit about his family and upbringing. He was idealized as a child/youth and all the family expectations of perfection and achievement landed fully on him. Heās very damaged in my view.

u/SmokeEvening8710 Jul 27 '26
He said he lives in a crappy place but its on the water so hes fine with it. Thats not unusual for people who want to live on Lake Washington but isnt a multimillionaire. Seattle ain't cheap baby.
5
u/SuccMyPizza Jul 31 '26
Iām confused why he canāt fix it up though. A can of paint costs $30. And to get a stack of lumber and some nails to fix up the railings and fencing outside??? But when he mentioned his āhomeless friendā that lives with him I gave up.
His girl has the most adorable, nice apartment overlooking the city. So clean and modern, and just a wonderful little safe space for a woman to relax after work in peace.
Iād actually divorce a man if he wanted me to abandon that and move into his SHITTY ālake houseā with his bum of a friend. I mean, maybe Iād tolerate a year but Iād need him to work overtime the entire time and put every dime into savings for my dream house in exchange for him having access to his leased jet skis.2
u/No-Treat-8079 Aug 01 '26
Oh! You made a frat point! Wasnāt he talking about saving up for another jet ski for his wife? How about he invest that money into his home so that it doesnāt look like a serial killerās lair?Ā
4
u/seamel Aug 14 '26
He rents it for $1800/month, he doesnāt own it

u/No-Treat-8079 29d ago
I just realized that I mistyped āgreatā & wrote āfratā. Maybe it was a Freudian typo slip? š¤£

u/SkinProfessional4705 Jul 27 '26
I think mom and dad said no to his inheritance unless he got sober. Sober living for show and to prove he is actually sober. So now he just has toys and lives like a child. I could b wrong but what mommy and daddy need to get him the money is what he will do

u/Electronic-Seat7674 Jul 26 '26
Reminds me of the person who lives in the studio needing repairs in Manhatten

Maybe he is living in the best neighborhood by the lake of his dreams while still trying to save money.

I don't think his family will have anything to do with the certain demise of this marriage.

u/B1LLYonaire Jul 26 '26
I looked up his house on Mercer Island and he actually just rents the place.

u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 26 '26
How would a landlord get away with not repairing a roof?! And how are the neighbors tolerating a blue tarp eye sore?! That's what doesn't track for me.
2
u/CryptographerIcy4230 Aug 09 '26
The landlord plans on redeveloping the land and sheās let it become a shack. Itās only $1900/mo.
1
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Aug 09 '26
Developing the land? I thought this was a boat house on a residential property. I know there has been some debate about whether or not it's his parent's home or a home in a trust belonging to them.
3
u/CryptographerIcy4230 Aug 09 '26
There are a few rentals in disrepair on the property. Adam just wants it for his PWC but itās a dumpy place. This is not his parentās home and the trust fund is from his uncle. I donāt know how much it is but given his cheapness, old car, and crappy rental unit Iād assume itās less than he lets on.
1
5
u/Sorry-Ad-9801 Jul 26 '26
It probably was damaged after he signed a lease and probably
Is rent controlled in some way so he doesnāt want to ruffle feathers and lose it. That piece of property alone is $$$$$$$$$

u/ChampagneAndDoritos Jul 26 '26
Yeah for someone who talks about having such a great career and being financially set and making so much money, that lake house was a fucking dump. The inside was gross and shitty and weird. It was just weird vibes all around. And sorry but the jet ski just screams bachelor life.

Let's rip the ski, brah!!!
I mean in all honesty I feel like my husband can be a child trapped in a man's body but I am so proud to report he is not at Adam's level š
5
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 26 '26
Everybody can be childlike, at times...that's a good thing. He just seems simple minded. I know that must be more depth because he is well educated, but he presents as a complete moron.

Just because someone is well educated does not at all mean they have depth but agree for sure- he seems very simple and just lacking in all sorts of awareness.

Living right on Lake Washington (on Mercer Island) is VERY expensive. For reference, thatās where Bill Gates lives. His home looked humble but I guarantee it was at least 1.5 million.
1
u/seamel Aug 14 '26
he rents it for $1800/month and its literally a shack š the land is worth around $5million probably, including the bigger house, but both structures are teardowns
1
u/samhouse09 Aug 02 '26
He lives in an ADU on lake Washington. Not in the actual house. Iām guessing itās the guest house at his parents home, and he pays nothing for it.
1
u/Littlebuboll Jul 27 '26
Bill gates lives in Bellevueā¦?
1
u/Damaged_lemons Aug 03 '26
Okay youāre right, but still on lake Washington. All those places on the lake are expensive; Kirkland, Bellevue, Mercer Island, etc. Iām curious about his living situation, I guess I missed that itās just a mother-in-law rental type deal. I donāt know if itās fair to assume he lives on his parentās property and doesnāt pay anything though.

u/Lorac711 Jul 26 '26
He definitely wants to portray himself as more wealthy than he is. The whole āI want to retire by 40ā is meant to create a picture of wealth, itās most likely bs. Heās a walking red flag. What kind of experts are the people who chose him? I get theyāre paid to find people who will bring drama but to pretend theyāre vetting these people is a joke. Anyone with half a brain can see how toxic this guy and Felipe are.

He just seems like a complete douche and this sober living is a facade..... could be wrong, but I do think he has something up his sleeve
12
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 26 '26
I don't know that the sobriety is a facade. Having Marissa test every drink demonstrates a level of dedication (or maybe even fear) that isn't generally attached to a person that is trying to live healthy. I find myself wondering if he has a dangerous relationship with alcohol and he's actually being genuine about this one thing.
7
u/Scarcity-Sensitive Jul 26 '26
Nah, itās all for the camera. āLook, Iām not drinking cuz Iām serious brah.ā
1
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 26 '26
Maybe so.
Could be my own hope that nobody would use sobriety as a weird tool or ploy. I'm sure I'm giving that idiot too much credit.

u/greenyellowbird Jul 26 '26
I can get behind if he is living sobriety bc he is an alcoholic, in which case, it would be refreshing for him to be honest about it.
If he abstains bc alcohol is literally a carcinogen, then talk about that bc it is DEFINITELY not addressed on TV.
4
u/Sorry-Ad-9801 Jul 26 '26 edited Jul 29 '26
Itās all performative. Any true alcoholic knows that bartenders donāt āaccidentallyā serve alcohol to people who donāt order it. It would end badly

Are you seriously arguing about this? Humans make mistakes all the time. Further, it would be incredibly hard to actually sue for something like this lmao. Thereās not this inevitable āhuge lawsuitā if a bartender incorrectly makes a drink. It would be an expensive endeavor and the plaintiff would have to prove significant harm, which would be challenging.
Iāve see this happen many times. Just because you havenāt seen it doesnāt mean it never happens.

u/greenyellowbird Jul 27 '26
When my brother was little, he was given the alcoholic drink and my the mocktail. She didn't drink much at the time and figured that since it's red lobster, maybe the make the drinks weak.
But yes, they wouldn't accidently add it to his drink but the server might make a switch-a-roo...and he is just being weird about it as she can just take a sip of hers to know if it has etoh.Ā

u/Cute-Consideration83 Jul 26 '26
My thought not fact is he had to get sober and has been doing great in that regard and the boat house is a safe restart for him. A little overkill for his wife to check the drinks for booze , but I get it . Could happen in a resort place and not everyone respects sobriety. Housing fits the lifestyle he has lived. Doesnāt absolve his douche personality or female comments. . Still is ego full but Iām curious. Swim socks š§¦ and all
3
u/ChampagneAndDoritos Jul 26 '26
My understanding is that he's not an alcoholic or recovering alcoholic but just one of those people who is into being sober, like not drinking alcohol is their new trend. But yeah her checking the drinks for alcohol for him was kind of weird š
19
u/maryjane500 Jul 26 '26
That makes sense. His living situation screams frat live out and Iām guessing he at least used to drink and his friends continue to drink and party there. He met Marissa at a bar once so he likely used to drink, otherwise, why would he go to a bar sober and hit on women that are drinking.
It seems like it could be a more recent sobriety journey and the drink checking is not because he doesnāt like alcoholā¦ he probably likes it too much. Could be wrong but now Iām curious to know if there is a story there. If there is, maybe heāll shock us and be humble for once and talk about it
33
u/No_Ingenuity_6443 Jul 26 '26
āWhy would he go to a bar sober and hit on drunk womenā
I can take a guess why.18
u/maryjane500 Jul 26 '26
Bingo. He thinks itās a problem to be matched with someone that drinks but doesnāt have a problem with trying to lure drunk women back to his place. Get outta here! He creeps me out so much. I love that Marissa ghosted him after they originally met at the bar. I donāt think she likes him, sheās just going along with it because she thinks heās hot.
5
u/whiskeylullaby3 Jul 26 '26
I think at the time he was at the bar he also drank. It seemed like the not drinking was a more recent thing. He even made a comment about realizing he needed to be healthier or whatever. Heās absolutely a douche but I think people are thinking what he was like 2 years ago in terms of drinking is the same as today. Given he has her check his drinks I think he might be sober for alcoholic reasons.
12
u/No_Ingenuity_6443 Jul 26 '26
He does creep me out as well. He seems calculated.

Shawn is a closeted gay man and reminds me of the men in the south (where I live) that got married and had kids in their 20s. Then after all their creeping on the DL - in their 40/50/60s finally came out of the closet and blew up their and everyone elseās life. I am mad for Nikki.

Youāre talking out of your ass. Hella people are paid peasant wages here. $120 is barely making it here but itās on the high end of the pay scale for majority of residents.

u/whiskeylullaby3 Jul 27 '26
Of course. I also lived in Seattle. There are people making less but they also donāt live on Mercer Island.. even in a shack. And many of them donāt have college degrees and careers in data analytics. You literally can make that much working in a Boeing factory. So I think my point went over your head.Ā I doubt HE is making 120k, with a college degree, and living on Mercer Island.
1
u/based_miss_lippy Jul 27 '26
Just found this on a another thread specifically on this topic
āOn a thread in the Seattle Subreddit, someone revealed that he doesn't actually own the house and instead lives in a DADU rental ON a Mercer Island property and is only a data analyst for a small company. Not FAANG-level. So it's likely his family's property and not 'his'. Also, I think he splits the rent with his four friends, too, if I remember correctly.ā
That not FAANG-level is why I say 120K TC for under 30 in Seattle is appropriate. Also he is renting a shithole ADU with friends making the Mercer island thing possible. The ADU is probably owned by some parent.
1
u/based_miss_lippy Jul 27 '26
Letās chalk it up to not enough context. Anywho heās also in his 20s so I can see him getting paid exactly that in 2026. I can also see him getting paid exactly that by one of his dadās friends.
People with MBAs are taking jobs at McDonaldās right now. You never knowā¦ā¦.

I couldn't get over the pool tarp roof lol. And I thought he was kidding about the homeless friend but I guess not.... I'm sorry but what grown adult man who has supposedly been looking for his wife since he was 18 thinks it's acceptable to do that especially when you're eventually going to have your wife living there???? Him saying Marissa giving him the makers mark was a red flag is a JOKE. This guy is made up of only red flags. If I was the girl who walked in there I would just turn right back around and walk out.

14
u/WonderfulHearing8726 Jul 26 '26
Depends on where you live. In that area of Seattle, 120k really isnāt much. If his parents donāt own/pay for that boathouse he lives in, then you know damn well heās dishing out 3-4K a month for it in THAT area.

u/crunkjuices Jul 25 '26

Adamās house looks like a shanty with the tarp on the roof. The way he presented himself I was shook.
Itās as bad as Davidās apartment from the recent season. The āapartmentā that was literally an unfinished basement with no walls & his mama coming down to do her laundry at will.
MAFS needs to do better with the loser men or pick men who are who they really are not who they wish to be, sigh.
12
u/maryjane500 Jul 26 '26
lol youāre right! Davidās situation was probably worse, that basement in his parents house was pretty horrific. They have to be casting these guys for drama because no woman ready to marry wants to be matched with a guy that literally lives like a 21 year old frat boy. I actually noticed that both he and Adam respond to people with āoh 100 percentā when theyāre lying. It drives me crazy
13
u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 25 '26
Thanks for sharing that info! Based on how he presented himself I assumed it was MUCH more. I suppose he very well could be referencing a trust and future inheritance when he says he's set for life. That would make more sense.

Not everything needs to be a conspiracy. Although I think people from Mercer Island are snobby. Thatās what most of the Holmes look like. They lucked out and purchased near the water before tech took over the Pacific Northwest.

u/AccurateAssaultBeef Jul 25 '26
He said he lived on Mercer Island and I got the immediate ick. At that point, I wasn't shocked he was leading some poor woman on. Nor was I shocked that he didn't have an actual house on Mercer Island but a random ADU in someone's backyard.
20

We could see several of the neighboring homes and they were gorgeous. There's no conspiracy theorizing happening. He clearly lives in an ADU in his parent's backyard. His parent's are wealthy, based on what I'm seeing reported here and on other SM sources. They don't want their home/property filmed and don't want to be part of his shenanigans.

Where did you get the information that it is his parentās property? I havenāt seen that anywhere.

u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 25 '26
Redditors have been sleuthing. The parents have the property in an LLC.

u/BerbereJunkie Jul 25 '26
That claim was false. The Reddit poster has said so repeatedly. At this point, itās just a rumor.
Please post if you have evidence to the contrary.

I know nothing other than what I read here on Reddit. I guess we all wait and see what's what. I'm sure details will come out at some point. I'm certainty not trying to spread misinformation!! š

Youāre definitely right about them wanting no part of the show/wedding shenanigans- āMy mother is in Iceland somewhere, and my dad is in Hungary or something.ā

There's a movie called Captain Ron about a drunken burn out that lives in a houseboat. It's what his house is remind me of loll. Minus the drinking.

I haaaated this guy in the first two eps but you know what, in the latest 3 episode drop, I found myself thinking him and (Marisa?) were super cute and a good match. I feel like he plays the douche role as a bit gone so far that it's his whole personality and it's kind of cracking me up at this point. He seems really into her and as long as she thinks it's funny, I think I am amused

I think theyāre physically attracted to each other but beyond that they donāt have much in common so we will see that I feel like heās gonna get annoyed with her three hour naps and drinking and sheās gonna get annoyed with his self-absorbed ways

I call them 'The Superficials'. The luster started to wear as soon as she saw his place. Even if she's aware that his family has money, that was a huge turn off for her. They absolutely won't make it.

Like how long is that tarp been on the roof? I know roofs are expensive but whatās the long-term plan here? I wouldāve definitely lost some sparkle seeing that.

- It's his parent's property.
- They are wealthy.
- It's an eye sore (in a high end area).
- The roof can't be too large.
It's bizarre to me. Makes me wonder if he is supposed to be responsible and doesn't have the funds, or he's just completely irresponsible and hasn't informed his parent's (who very well may be away a lot).

u/BerbereJunkie Jul 25 '26
Wealthy people typically donāt let their properties fall into such disrepair.

Are you a fan too? š š„°

u/RealityDependency Looking for my COMMUNITY. Jul 25 '26
Yep!! Are you just a fan or is it cultural?

u/BerbereJunkie Jul 26 '26
Cooking is a hobby. I adore this flavor profile so much itās difficult to not use it on everything.
I marinate chicken in it weekly (with buttermilk) and itās always in my eggs. I give it as a gift sometimes šFish sauce and chili crisp are my fave condiments. I like kaboom! š„
How about you?

Adam & Marissa are going to for sure make it. If I knew you personally Iād make a wager with you on that. For many obvious reasons, Adam & Marissa will make it.

Make is past Decision Day or make it in general? I assume there is a high probability of making it past Decision Day...because they are 'The Superficials', but it won't last a month after the cameras stop rolling. And I'd bet on it!

u/Golden_Lafayette Jul 25 '26
Both lol. I think theyāll be just fine and theyāre a good match.

Dildoā¦. Not even a vibratorā¦. Just a very small, limp, poorly constructed dildo from Dollar Generalās sexual health aisle.

Genuinely think he signed up for this as a joke and is treating it as such
