90 Day Fiancé: 8 Signs Darcey Silva May Have Money Problems (Is She Struggling Financially After Georgi Split?)

Darcey Silva appears to be eager to return to the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, which could indicate that she isn't doing well financially. Darcey is a 50-year-old woman from Connecticut who shot to fame with her debut in Before the 90 Days season 1. Darcey was divorced with two young girls and had found love online. Darcey had envisioned a future with the 31-year-old Jesse Meester from Amsterdam. To no one’s surprise, the romance failed, and Darcey dated another younger man named Tom Brooks until she found Georgi Rusev from Bulgaria on Instagram.

Darcey did four seasons of Before the 90 Days until she was signed up for Darcey & Stacey, a one-of-a-kind, twin-themed show with her identical twin sister, Stacey Silva. However, Darcey didn’t achieve the kind of popularity she did on Before the 90 Days with this one. The show hasn’t been renewed, and it’s not known whether Darcey will ever make a 90 Day Fiancé comeback. Darcey’s fame is diminishing, but is it also affecting her bank balance?

8 Darcey Wanted To Desperately Become A Reality TV Star

Darcey Had Made Her Own Reality TV Show

Darcey may have debuted in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise in 2017 with 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 1, but she wanted to make it big on reality TV for ages before that. Darcey and Stacey made their own reality TV show which could have served as an inspiration for Darcey & Stacey in 2020 (via 360DigitalStudios). Darcey and Stacey were still living in Connecticut and were mothers to their set of daughters and sons, but they were still married to their ex-husbands who fans never got to meet on 90 Day Fiancé.

Darcey wanted to be a huge reality TV star since 2010. A 10-minute-long supertailer shows Darcey and Stacey talking about how they met their ex-husbands. There are clips of them living the high life in New York, working behind the scenes for their fashion brand, and even doing photoshoots as professional models. Darcey seems to have filmed the entire first season considering the amount of content in the trailer, but sadly for her, Darcey had to wait for almost a decade more to become famous.

Darcey was undoubtedly born with a silver spoon, and she used her familial wealth to launch several businesses before attaining reality TV fame. One of them is House Of Eleven, which sells a variety of clothing, including loungewear, denim, outerwear, accessories, jewelry, and eyewear. It was co-founded by Darcey and Stacey in October 2010. Along with their love for fashion, Darcey and Stacey are also into the showbiz business. They have their own production company, Eleventh Entertainment.

Darcey co-executive produced the 2013 comedy film White T with Stacey and their father, Mike Silva. It was written and directed by Lance Frank and starred Jamal Mixon, Jerod Mixon, and Eric Roberts. The movie has a 3.7 rating on IMDb. One of the reviews says that whoever wrote the script “just hates fat people” while asking audiences to avoid the movie “at all costs.”

6 Darcey's House Of Eleven Brand Has Been A Controversy Magnet

Why House Of Eleven Isn't A Hit Among Fans

Darcey and Stacey Silva have their own fashion brand, House of Eleven, and some customers don't like the clothing and accessories that they sell. There have been a lot of complaints about Darcey and Stacey's House of Eleven products. In January 2022, fans were calling out the brand’s ridiculous shipping prices. One of the glasses cost $17 and the only shipping available was over $80. One customer tried to return a package, but it was refused. The pictures of products seemingly didn’t match the actual product.

A major concern for fans was the lack of size inclusivity and diversity with regard to their models. Fans wished to see the clothes on women of different body types. Fans have called out Darcey and Stacey for trying to sell overpriced items like a “Boss Babe” t-shirt which costs $215. In 2023, Reddit user RphWrites shared pictures to prove that House of Eleven products do bear a striking resemblance to the products from other online retailers. Darcey and Stacey were accused of purchasing from a bulk wholesale clothing distributor, like Alibaba, and re-branding them as House of Eleven products.

5 Darcey's Been Accused Of Wearing Fakes

Does Darcey Buy Fake Designer Items?

Known for her distinct sense of fashion, Darcey is a lover of in-your-face clothing items and accessories for a while now. She loves dressing up even if she’s taking a trip to the grocery store. Darcey is rarely seen without her hair and makeup done. Her clothes are also loud and garish, which means that Darcey loves to sport oversized jewelry, bags, and jackets. However, sometimes, questions have been raised about the authenticity of the things that Darcey wears.

Reddit user madiolma had once shared a screenshot of one of Darcey’s scenes showing her bag. There was a Louis Vuitton Keepall in the frame and the fan added a picture of the bag from a product page for comparison. They circled an area of Darcey’s bag and captioned the post, “How we all know Darcy’s designer stuff is fake.” The fan wanted others to observe how the piece Darcey was flaunting had the logos cut at the seam. Redditor Zpb927 commented, “Well the buckles holding the handles are certainly different. I think Darcy’s is a fake for sure.”

4 Darcey's Hair Extensions Are Poorly Done

Darcey's Hair Is A Financial Burden On Her

Darcey and her sister love to wear big hair. Their natural hair is dark and curly but has now turned gray and rough as revealed in one of the Darcey & Stacey episodes. Darcey’s hair is always styled using hair extensions and wigs. She loves to be a blonde, but her natural hair can’t take the damage anymore. The sisters wear long wigs because there was a time when they both had naturally long tresses, and they missed them. Darcey’s hair started thinning after she had kids. It couldn’t grow beyond a certain length.

Darcey seemingly prefers extensions to wigs. However, there was a scene where her microbead extensions were peeking out of her hair and looking like she had lice. The beads were placed very close to Darcey’s thin hairline. They also looked like they were overgrown and needed to be readjusted or removed. The beads shouldn’t have been visible when Darcey pulled her hair back. Darcey has also posted videos after getting a fresh hair makeover, but her extensions didn’t blend, suggesting she didn’t spend good money at a half-decent salon.

3 Darcey Keeps Promoting Her OnlyFans

Darcey Even Has A Venmo

Most 90 Day Fiancé cast members turn to OnlyFans to make money outside their reality TV show career. Cast members like Anfisa Nava, Stephanie Matto, Larissa Lima, etc. boast about their earnings online. They post adult content on the website where fans can pay a certain subscription fee to view the photos and videos. These cast members use the platform as one of their primary sources of income.

However, considering Darcey shows as if she’s swimming in wealth, her making an account seems suspicious. Darcey’s content is not tame either. While she also adds previously unseen content, most of it appears to be old photos of her in swimming costumes. At one point, Darcey also added a Venmo link to her OnlyFans bio which showed how desperate she is to get money from fans. Darcey could be tired of putting on an act of being ridiculously wealthy. She’s one step away from launching a GoFundMe because her money has run out.

2 Darcey Appears On Cameo In A Sorry State

Darcey Is Money Hungry

Darcey also has a Cameo page where she shares video-recorded messages with her fans in exchange for money. These videos often make their way to social media and viewers feel free to dissect Darcey’s look and the things she says in these clips. While a fan expects their favorite star to at least look presentable while sending them a message, Darcey doesn’t put in any effort. Most of the time, these videos show Darcey in a dimly lit room with no makeup but with a heavy filter on her face and her hair undone.

Darcey doesn’t respect the fact that her fans have spent a considerable amount of their income on reaching out to her and getting her to talk to them. The least she could do was brush her hair while responding to people who love her. Darcey seems to only care about the money and creates these clips half-heartedly as long as the fee for it is deposited in her account.

1 Darcey Is Desperate To Return To 90 Day Fiancé

Darcey Wants The Next Season Of 90 Day: The Last Resort

These days, Darcey has been hinting at a split with her husband, Georgi. Darcey married him a year ago, in November 2023, but has since suggested she’s split with him several times. It's been two years since Darcey has been featured in the franchise. Darcey & Stacey premiered in January 2023 and, since it’s almost January 2025 now, Darcey must be getting worried about her future in the 90 Day Fiancé universe. Darcey knows that she is one of the best-known faces from the franchise, but for how long?

Darcey needs to keep herself relevant, and she’s done nothing about it. She seems to have been inspired by sister Stacey Silva now. If Darcey suggests there’s drama in her married life, she could be roped in for the next season of 90 Day: The Last Resort like Stacey. It’s Darcey’s last chance to make money as a reality TV personality. It remains to be seen if 90 Day Fiancé’s Darcey can reclaim her star status or if she fades into obscurity with fans losing interest in her antics day by day.

90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days airs Sundays at 8 p.m. EST on TLC.
