Jovi, a party boy from Larose, Louisiana, matched with Yara, from Kyiv, Ukraine, on a dating app while he was traveling the world for work. Their one-night stand turned out to be a full-fledged relationship. The Instagram influencers said “I do” in a small Las Vegas wedding in February 2020. The couple welcomed a daughter, Mylah, in September 2020, and documented their ups and downs as a couple on the Happily Ever After? spinoff.
They later appeared on The Last Resort in 2023, and in February 2024 told Axios they were living in New Orleans, confirming they’re still together.
Rebecca & Zied (Season 8)

Woodstock, Georgia-based Rebecca got engaged to Zied, from Tunis, Tunisia, during Season 3 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days.

They’re still together as of 2024 and enjoy making social media content as a couple on their separate accounts with matching handles. (@tlc_90day_rebecca and @tlc_90day_zied).
Stephanie & Ryan (Season 8)
Status: Split
Stephanie, from Grand Rapids, Michigan, broke up with beau Ryan, from Ladyville, Belize, after accusing him of cheating. But then Stephanie came under scrutiny when it appeared she was dating Ryan’s cousin, Harris.
Stephanie took to social media to reveal that her cheating scandal was fake and that she split up with Ryan before filming began. She got into hot water with the state of Michigan in 2021 after claiming that weight loss injections from her business may help prevent contracting COVID-19. Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel insisted she retract the claims, and Stephanie reached an agreement with the state to avoid legal trouble, per Cinemablend.
Mike (Sequim, Washington) & Natalie (Ukraine)
After cheating allegations last season, Mike and Natalie, both 35, return to try to make things work. Natalie receives her K-1 visa after a long waiting process, but realizes she only has 20 days to move to the U.S. from the Ukraine. Mike and Natalie decide to commit to one another and continue with a wedding.
Brandon & Julia (Season 8)
Status: Married
Brandon, a farmer from Dinwiddie, Virginia, fell for Julia, a dancer from Krasnodar, Russia, via videochat. Despite the couple butting heads with Brandon’s parents while all living together, the young couple tied the knot in April 2020. In an anniversary Instagram post in April 2022, Brandon told Julia, “Thank you for being the best two years of my life.”
They’re still together as of 2024 but have different desires when it comes to having kids. Brandon is ready for parenthood, but Julia is not, per an Instagram update in June 2023. Julia posted a sweet photo on Instagram in December 2023, saying that next year she hopes that her family can be with them in the U.S. on Christmas.
Hazel & Tarik (Season 8)
Status: Married
Tarik, from Virginia Beach, Virginia, fell for Hazel, from Quezon City, Philippines, during Season 3 of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. It was a bumpy ride but Hazel and Tarik tied the knot in June 2020. The two later sought an American girlfriend — together. Breakup rumors swirled in 2021, with Tarik saying Hazel left him, but they appeared to reconcile. Their relationship status is still unclear as of 2024, but it seems more likely that they’re broken up. Hazel seems to be off of social media completely.
Andrew & Amira
Roseville, California daycare worker Andrew was ultimately undeserving of Amira’s amour. The French beauty was detained in Mexico after Andrew’s international quarantine plan failed; eventually Amira traveled once again to Serbia, but after a brutal fight via text with Andrew, Amira pulled the plug on their relationship. Of course Andrew’s insulting ultimatums didn’t help. Amira’s K-1 visa expired, and today she claims to be a toxic relationship survivor on Twitter.
