Meet the New Couples of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days

Learn more about the upcoming season and get all the details about the new spinoff series The Family Chantel.

Searching for love in all the right places! We're keeping temperatures rising this summer with even more long distance romances when 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days returns Sunday, August 4th at 8/7c.

The new season follows seven Americans who are taking their digital romances to the real world, and meeting their online loves in person for the very first time! After investing their time, money, and hopes and dreams on a fairytale romance—will these relationships end in proposal or heartbreak? You'll have to watch and see!

Here's who you'll meet this season:

Avery, 19 (Ohio) and Omar, 24 (Syria)
At 18 years old, Avery decided to leave the Christian faith that she was born into and become a follower of Islam, much to the displeasure of her family and friends. Shortly after joining a Muslim dating site, she met Omar. Even though Omar lives in war-torn Syria, they fell in love online and got engaged. Now traveling to meet him for the first time in nearby Lebanon, Avery must decide if a lifetime with Omar is worth potentially living in an unstable, battle-scarred country.

Caesar, 46 (North Carolina) and Maria, 28 (Ukraine)
A hard-working nail technician, Caesar has spent over $40,000 to financially support Maria, the beautiful woman he met online, for the past five years. Now Caesar is planning to travel to the Ukraine to meet her, but Caesar’s coworkers are afraid she’s been scamming him this whole time. Once he meets her in person, Caesar plans on getting down on one knee and proposing to the woman of his dreams—but is Maria everything she says she is?

Benjamin, 33 (Arizona) and Akinyi, 25 (Kenya)
As a divorced father with a five-year-old, Benjamin wasn’t having much luck with meeting women from his hometown, so he broadened his search and found Akinyi. Benjamin now has his bags packed for his first-ever international trip to meet her in Kenya and ask her parents for her hand in marriage. It won’t be easy, as Benjamin is not only the first boyfriend Akinyi has ever introduced her family, but also—as far as they can remember—the first white man to visit their village.

Timothy, 38 (North Carolina) and Jeniffer, 25 (Colombia)

After coming across Jeniffer’s online profile, Timothy was instantly smitten. Now, he’s traveling to Colombia to meet her in person for the first time and plans to propose. But with Jeniffer being a total knockout, he’s worried she won’t fall head over heels when they finally meet. Plus Tim’s close relationship with his ex-fiancé, Veronica, as well as the pressure of proving himself to be a capable step-father to Jeniffer’s 18-month-old daughter, may be hurdles that neither of them are fully prepared for.

Angela, 53 (Georgia) and Michael, 29 (Nigeria)

Returning from the second season of Before the 90 Days, fans will catch up with this couple and all their heated drama. When Angela traveled to Nigeria last season for Michael, they each had very different expectations.

But if the past is any indication, things may not work out so easily.

Darcey, 44 (Connecticut) and Tom, 39 (United Kingdom)

Darcey is back on Before the 90 Days, but this time she’s got a new man. British businessman Tom is Darcey’s ‘James Bond,’ and he’s just the positive energy she’s been searching for. Although they met online four years ago (pre-Jesse!) they never exclusively dated and never met in person. Now Darcey is finally ready to travel to the U.K. and hopefully start a relationship that will last a lifetime.

To discover if their love will last, Rebecca has planned a trip to Tunisia, and her goal is to leave with a ring and a new foreign fiancé.
