We first met Ed "Big Ed" Brown, a photographer from San Diego, on Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days. Here's a throwback of a younger Ed, and it's safe to say that he's come a long way. Take a look back at his story.

Ed appeared with his then-girlfriend, Rosemarie, on 90 Day Fiance: Before The 90 Days Season 4. Together, they had some unforgettable moments — like this leg massage.

Now broken up, Ed and Rose give each other cold looks on the tell-all.

Ed dove back into the dating scene on 90 Day Fiance: The Single Life. Here, he met with his therapist to discuss his dating life.

He planned out an entire dating profile photoshoot!

Ed was interested in his friend, Liz, who happened to be his waitress for the evening. With a little encouragement, he asked her out during her shift.

Norma did Ed's hair to help him get ready for his date with Liz.

Ed, Norma, and Liz enjoyed a dinner date together.

The budding couple grew close. They attended a wedding together — but more importantly, Ed trusted Liz to style his hair.

Although things were going in the right direction, Liz had her doubts.

The couple's 27-year age gap became a major concern for them, especially when Ed introduced Liz to his daughter, Tiffany.

After a rollercoaster of breakups and makeups, things between Ed and Liz seemed over for good at the 90 Day: The Single Life Tell All.

After the breakup, Ed made the gym a priority. Look at him getting those gains!

Boxing is good for the mind, body, and soul. How's that uppercut, Ed?

Look at sweet Teddy's shark outfit! Here are our favorite photos of Ed's late pup.

On the second season of 90 Day: The Single Life, Ed took a woman named Mia on a date. They met at a friend's barbecue and kept in touch ever since. The pair went swing dancing and out to dinner after. It was going great!

During dinner, however, Ed answered a question about his ex, Liz. He started crying and said that letting Liz go was the hardest thing he ever had to do, which ultimately pushed Mia away.

Ed had a heart-to-heart with Norma about values and what he was looking for in a life partner. Norma told Ed that he should embrace their family's culture and try dating a Latina woman.

And then, Norma's wish was granted. Ed's friend, Laura (left), introduced him to her friend, Kaory (right), over video chat. The pair connected fairly quickly and Ed was excited to see where things would go.

Ed and Norma flew to Mexico together! Ed was ready to meet Kaory in person and brought his mom along for support. Norma was especially excited to visit her homeland of Mexico and help Ed with his Spanish if needed.

Ed and Kaory hit it off, but the sounds of a robbery outside the restaurant interrupted their date. Ultimately, they were fine and Ed felt they were able to bond over what happened.

Unfortunately, Ed began talking about marriage and Kaory thought he was moving too fast. Kaory distanced herself from Ed and stopped answering his texts. Ed accepted her decision and returned to the states.

In a sad turn of events, Ed's dog, Teddy, passed away. He received flowers and tokens of sympathy from friends and family, but he couldn't figure out who left a certain bouquet on his doorstep. He checked his doorbell camera and found out it was Liz! The two began speaking again and soon, they were a couple.

Ed popped the question and Liz said yes! They weren't sure how their loved ones would take the news, but they were willing to fight for their love.

See what's next for Ed and Liz on the new season of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, premiering on August 28 at 8/7c!
