A new season of TLC’s 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days premieres in September with eight new couples hoping to turn their long-distance relationships into happily ever afters.
(…and, let’s be honest, the opportunity to appear on as many 90 Day Fiancé spinoffs as possible.)
Meet the Season 7 couples below:
Tigerlily (Texas) & Adnan (Jordan)
Tigerlily is a 41-year-old mother of two from Texas, who enjoys the finer things in life. After leaving her controlling 10-year marriage, she vowed to never marry again; however, things changed after she met 23-year-old Adnan, a model from Jordan whom she connected with on social media.
Despite only talking for four months, Tigerlily plans to marry Adnan the day she arrives in Jordan. Tigerlily’s friends have encouraged her to hold off on tying the knot, warning her that Adnan’s Muslim faith may lead to cultural differences that she hasn’t considered. Still, Tigerlily insists she’s ready to risk it all for love.
Rayne (New Mexico) & Chidi (Nigeria)
Rayne is a 38-year-old chicken farmer from New Mexico who believes she’s found her true love in 34-year-old Chidi of Nigeria. Shortly after the couple began talking online five years ago, Rayne snapped some sexy photos for her long-distance love interest, but was confused when Chidi didn’t respond; however, she soon learned that Chidi was blind– something she loves about him, due to the insecurities she has about her looks.
Rayne’s friends and family are concerned that she isn’t prepared for the reality of being with a blind person. They also caution Rayne that her unconventional beliefs may clash with Chidi’s Christianity. As for Rayne, she’s convinced that she and Chidi are meant to be and hopes Chidi will be willing relocate to the U.S. in order for them to officially start their life together.
Faith (The Philippines) & Loren (Nevada)
Loren is a 33-year-old “jack of all trades” from Las Vegas, who fell in love with his girlfriend, 31-year-old Faith of the Philippines who is transgender, after meeting on a dating site. Loren is hoping that his trip to the Philippines to meet Faith will turn into a permanent move– unbeknownst to Faith.
While Loren plans to do whatever he can to make Faith happy, he hasn’t been completely honest with her about his financial situation, revealing in the Season 7 trailer that he is actually homeless. As for Faith, she’s excited for Loren’s arrival, but nervous to open up to him, as she’s never had a boyfriend before.
Matilda (Ghana) & Niles (Alabama)
Matilda, a 23-year-old from Ghana, and Niles, a 28-year-old from Alabama, met online two years ago as pen pals, though their friendship ultimately turned into love. Niles eventually proposed to Matilda over the phone and Matilda–- who is actively planning their nuptials–- believes they’ll be tying the knot when Niles arrives for his first visit. Unfortunately, Niles wants to hold off on the wedding, but he’s afraid to break the news to his bride.
Magda (Poland) & Joe (Florida)
Joe is a 34-year-old Italian Jersey boy residing in Florida who has fallen head over heels for 23-year-old Magda, a volleyball player from Poland. Magda has fallen for Joe, as well, and has quit her job in preparation for her anticipated move to the U.S., where she hopes to start a family ASAP. While Joe is all in on the relationship, he’s not sure if he’s ready to start a family with a women he hasn’t met in-person yet, leading him to worry that the relationship might be moving too fast.
Ingrid (Brazil) & Brian (Illinois)
Brian is a 52-year-old quadriplegic from Illinois who leads an independent and active lifestyle that includes traveling the world both playing and coaching wheelchair rugby. During a trip to Brazil, Brian fell in love with the country’s culture and has found Brazilian women to be more accepting of his disability.
Enter 33-year-old Ingrid, whom Brian connected with on a dating site nearly two years ago. Though the couple are meeting in person for the first time, Brian believes Ingrid could be the one, though he’s nervous she won’t share those feelings after learning the truth about his past.
Sunny (South Africa) & Veah (Florida)
Sunny, a 26-year-old guy from South Africa, and Veah, a 27-year-old from Florida, are in love and ready to take their relationship to the next level, despite their ongoing trust issues. Sunny is uncomfortable with the close friendship Veah maintains with her ex-boyfriend– something that will presumably become a bigger problem when Veah, a self-proclaimed nervous traveler, arranges for her ex to accompany her to South Africa so that she will not have to travel alone.
Vanja (Florida) & Božo (Croatia)
Vanja is a 41-year-old Floridan woman who has fallen for 38-year-old Božo, a basketball player from Croatia. While Vanja matched with Božo on a dating app while she was vacationing in Europe, the two didn’t get an opportunity to meet at the time, but Vanja is ready to travel to Croatia to finally make it happen. She’s also hoping for a proposal during her trip, but her loved ones fear that she and Božo aren’t on the same page and that Vanja will return to the U.S. with a broken heart– and without a ring.
