Chantel and Usman get into an argument in the premiere of 90 Day: Hunt for Love

In the season premiere of 90 Day: Hunt for Love, the cast caught up with the people they knew and got to know others better. Meanwhile, while in conversation with Colt and Usman, Chantel revealed who she was surprised to see, which included Tim and Colt.

Usman asked her if she was surprised to see him, and that latter said she didn't know him. The male 90 Day: Hunt for Love season 1 cast member was upset by Chantel's claims and said they had mutual friends. He also told the cameras that he knew she knew him because she had been talking about him behind his back.

When the group intervened, Chantel told them that Usman got upset that she didn't know him, while the latter refused to continue the conversation. He further told the cameras that the female 90 Day: Hunt for Love participant was unaware that he knew she was talking about him.

"Why don't you mind your own business?" he added.

He felt she was attacking him for no reason and stated he had done nothing to warrant such behavior. Chantel told the group she was on "high defense," and Usman asked why that was. She explained that he was defensive towards her and said that she didn't know him, and Usman said she was lying.

Chantel further chimed in on the argument in a confessional and said that she didn't trust Usman because of what was said about him online.
