Profiles

90 Day Fiancé is an American documentary series (Docu-Series) on TLC that debuted January 12, 2014. The series follows couples who have 90 days to decide to marry before their 90-day K-1 visas (available uniquely to foreign fiancés of American citizens) expire. First the petitioner must meet the beneficiary outside the USA and then file a I-129F petition with evidence of meeting and of a relationship. After the petition is approved, the petitioner must pass biometrics and then the process is sent to the foreign embassy of the beneficiary. The beneficiary then files for a visa, before or after passing the medical requirements and is called for an interview. The beneficiary must prove that they meet the requirements of the visa including strong evidence of meeting and a valid relationship. The foreign fiancé travels to the States to live with his or her prospective American spouse. The couples must marry within 90 days, or leave the country. The couples may face language barriers, culture shock, the stigma of being thought of as a "mail order bride" as well as skepticism of friends and family.

She is a graduate of the University of North Florida.

Alexei and Loren are planning to get married in Israel, but most of Alexei's friends are reluctant to attend because they say Loren took him away from them and he has not stayed in touch since. The couple is reaching out to the friends individually to try to repair the situation. The couple resides in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Noon & Kyle

Kyle Huckabee, 28, of New Orleans, Louisiana, and Bajaree Boonma aka Noon, 25, of Bangkok, Thailand, met online through Facebook while he doing research for a trip to Thailand. The two met in person while he was there on vacation. They were engaged and Noon came to America even though Kyle hadn't officially proposed. They initially lived in Kyle's bachelor apartment with his roommate, but the situation was less than ideal. Kyle started working extra shifts at his job as a bartender on Bourbon Street so that they could afford an apartment of their own. Kyle proposed during a sky-diving trip, and they moved into a new apartment.

Before he met Noon, he was estranged from his parents who are divorced. With Noon's support, he has restated the relationship with his mother. The two were married in a Buddhist temple, but unfortunately, Noon's family was unable to attend the ceremony. Kyle’s mom chose not to attend.

Melanie & Devar

Devar Walters, 28, of Runaway Bay, Jamaica, and Melanie Bowers, 33, Orwigsburg, Pennsylvania, met while Melanie was on vacation at a Jamaican resort where Devar was employed as a lifeguard. Melanie is a registered nurse. She has custody of her 11-year old son Hunter on weekends. She was married to his father for 5 years before the marriage ended in divorce when she was 26. Davar proposed to Melanie while she was still vacationing, and she accepted.

Back in Pennsylvania, Melanie’s sister, Bev, is extremely concerned and does not trust Devar. The couple hits a rough patch when Devar mentions sending back most of the money he earns to his family in Jamaica; Melanie ponders out loud that she will look into a prenup.

Carolina & Fernando

Fernando, 39, of Doral, Florida, and Carolina, 22, of Medellin, Colombia, met in Colombia while both on dates with other people. The two were engaged before he returned to America. She moved to Florida to live with him.

After his marriage ended, he invited his parents to share his house. They were able to move past this issue and were married.

A re-cap a few months later reveals the couple has happily settled in together, though Carolina admits she calls her mom several times a day and misses her cat (unfortunately Fernando is allergic to cats).

Aleksandra & Josh

Josh Strobel, 22, of Rexburg, Idaho, and Aleksandra Iarovikova, 21, of Kirov, Russia, met in Prague, Czech Republic, while Josh was on a Mormon missionary trip and Aleksandra was attending a Metropolitan University Prague. While in Prague, she taught a pole dancing class and was also employed as a go-go dancer. Initially an atheist, Josh led Aleksandra on a conversion to Mormonism.

Josh's parents are concerned that Aleksandra may be to "wild" for their son (Aleksandra was formerly a go-go dancer, has visible tattoos and had "a lot" of boyfriends); Aleksandra's mother wishes that she would go to school and get a job instead.

Despite the misgivings, Josh and Aleksandra tie the knot in August 2015. Josh was a virgin at the time of the wedding, and Aleksandra was worried that he wouldn't know what to do in bed because she was very experienced. A re-cap a few months later reveals that the couple are now expecting their first child together.

Anfisa & Jorge

Anfisa Arkhipchenko, 20, Moscow, Russia, was contacted by Andrew Lopez aka Jorge, 25, Riverside, California, via Facebook after he stumbled onto her photos. Though Anfisa was at first resistant to his messages (Jorge claims he "fell in love" with her just by viewing her noticeably sexy photos). Anfisa eventually agreed to meet him and Jorge ends up taking her on an expensive vacation around Europe. Shortly before Anfisa was scheduled to come to the United States, she asked Jorge for an expensive handbag, which Jorge declined to buy for her. Anfisa managed to wipe Jorge's cellphone and cancel the flights, though the two reconciled and eventually Anfisa agrees to travel to the U.S. Jorge is a convicted felon, having pleaded guilty to drug trafficking, which makes it hard for him to rent an apartment.

Anfisa is less than impressed at their living arrangements - a hotel - though why exactly Jorge does not have his own place to live has not been revealed. She is also upset that she will not be given the so-called allowance she wants, a mere 10K a month, after Jorge says he makes enough money for the both of them (Anfisa, though, has an interest in modeling). Jorge is smitten and absolutely in love, though his friends and family are certainly concerned about Anfisa's motives.

As the wedding planning progresses, Anfisa keeps asking for very expensive items. After she tries on a $300,000 ring and suggests that he could sell his car to help pay for it, Jorge confronts her about money. She admits that she is primarily interested in him for his money, and she also believes that he is primarily interested in her for her looks. Jorge is crushed by this. She was considering going back to Russia, and Jorge considered for a while that he would not try to stop her. They get married alone in a simple courthouse ceremony with the promise that they will have an elaborate ceremony later on.

Nicole & Azan

Nicole, 21, Bradenton, Florida, and Azan, 23, Morocco, met via an app that allows users to connect with people all over the world. After hitting it off, though somewhat against her parents wishes, Nicole decides to stay with him for five weeks, leaving her toddler-aged daughter May with her sister. Upon meeting Nicole at the airport, Azan remarks that she is "big...a little bit" but concedes that he is happy. Nicole is thrilled to be in Morocco with Azan (later calling him her "Arabian Prince"), though he has a hard time persuading her that in his culture it is not acceptable for unmarried coupled to be physically affectionate. Nicole persists in trying to hug and kiss Azan, which only causes him to become irritated. Nicole, meanwhile, feels shunned and unsure of their relationship.

Azan takes Nicole to his hometown to visit his family; she is warmly welcomed and we learn that his mother especially is thrilled with Azan's girlfriend. Unfortunately, Nicole later reveals that she cheated on Azan, something that could end the relationship should his family find out.

Azan takes Nicole to the desert and proposes, and she accepts. However, she continues to chafe at the customs of the Muslim culture. She refuses to convert to Islam and he refuses to convert to Christianity.

Their wedding is delayed indefinitely due to Nicole not being able to yet afford to fund the government sponsorship requirements for Azan's staying in the U.S, and her Mom refusing to co sponsor the effort. Nicole believes it will take 2 years minimum and hopes Azan will wait that long. Their future is unsure, but as of today they are still together, but continuing to live in separate countries.

Narkiya & Olulowo

Olulowo is currently in Nigeria and used to be in Vietnam. He is trying to meet Narkiya but various obstacles keep popping up. Narkiya and her friends and family are skeptical of him and are wary of a romance scam, but he has not asked for any money and Narkiya is still willing to see where it goes.

They broke up though since Olulowo had been lying to Narkiya about still having been contacting and pursuing a relationship with a woman he had previously had a baby with in the early stages of his relationship with Narkiya.

Alla & Matt

Matt, 42, Williamstown, Kentucky, and Alla, 30, Kiev, Ukraine, met several years ago using an online dating site but lost touch after Matt married his third wife. A few years and a divorce later, Matt and Alla reconnect. Alla, also a divorcee, has a 7-year-old son named Max. The reserved Alla is easily overwhelmed by Matt's friends and family while Matt continues to deal with lingering issues caused by his previous wives (he claims his first and third wife cheated on him). Alla dreams of a wedding on the beach but Matt's family tries to persuade her to scale back her plans.
