Emily was teaching English in China where Kobe was working as an underwear model when they met at a club. Emily and Kobe became pregnant with their first baby and got engaged quickly, but had to live apart for two years amid the Covid-19 pandemic.
The pair were married in 2022 and had their love story documented on 90 Day Fiancé Season 9. They are the franchise's most reliably happy couple. Us Weekly confirmed the couple welcomed a baby boy named Rocky on Wednesday, May 13, with Emily sharing: "Kobe and I are so excited to welcome our sweet baby boy to our family." Rocky joins siblings Koban, Scarlett, and Atem — making Emily and Kobe a family of six.
Bilal Hazziez and Shaeeda Sween
- Nationality: Bilal — American (Kansas City); Shaeeda — Trinidadian
- Profession: Bilal — real estate agent; Shaeeda — yoga instructor
- Season 9 status: Married in 2021
- Current status: Together
Bilal was a divorced man with two kids who met Shaeeda from Trinidad and Tobago on social media, and proposed to her within a week of seeing her in person. He made her sign a prenup, but Shaeeda outsmarted him by including a clause for a baby.
Shaeeda had to go through two miscarriages, but her biggest wish finally came true — she became a mom. The couple revealed, "After two days of labor, we joyfully welcomed our handsome son, Ayaan, on December 14, 2024, at 10:40 PM," through an Instagram post.
Kara Bass and Guillermo Rojer

- Season 9 status: Married in July 2021; welcomed son Nicolas in November 2022
- Current status: Separated, still legally married; on 90 Day: The Last Resort Season 3
TLC viewers first met Kara and Guillermo on Season 9, when she was 29 and he was 23, having crossed paths in the Dominican Republic during one of her work trips. Besides personal differences, they faced jealousy and trust issues; one episode showed Kara's ex-boyfriend revealing that she had cheated on him, making Guillermo deeply conscious of the relationship.
It is the whiff of relationship breakdown, emotional manipulation, and cheating rumors that has finally put them in the spotlight — and not in a way they likely wanted. Kara later told producers that she kicked Guillermo out after he accused her of cheating. Kara confirmed that she did not cheat, emphasizing that there is "zero truth" to Guillermo's accusations. At the Tell All: No Limits, Kara stated they are "separated, living separate, coparenting, [but] still married," confirming they have not finalized a divorce.
Ariela Weinberg and Biniyam Shibre
- Nationality: Ariela — American (New Jersey); Biniyam — Ethiopian
- How they met: First appeared on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way Season 2 in 2020
- Season 9 status: Married in the U.S. after Biniyam came on a K-1 visa
- Current status: Divorced (agreed to split on The Last Resort Season 2)
Ariela had a son with Biniyam, and he came to the U.S. in 90 Day Fiancé Season 9 to marry her. Ariela felt that Biniyam was growing distant after their wedding and accused him of cheating and being in a relationship while still with her.
Ariela and Biniyam decided to get divorced on The Last Resort, with Biniyam seemingly no longer attracted to Ariela while she remained hung up on his past infidelity. However, their story did not end there. Ariela shocked fans when she congratulated Biniyam in February 2025, revealing he was part of the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show, confirming that Biniyam was one of the dancers in Kendrick Lamar's iconic 13-minute performance. Ariela also confirmed she was working as Biniyam's manager and appeared to have helped him secure the job.
Jibri Bell and Miona Bell
- Nationality: Jibri — American; Miona — Serbian
- How they met: Jibri met Miona while performing with his band in Serbia
- Season 9 status: Married in November 2021
- Current status: Divorced; Miona with new partner
Miona met Jibri while he was performing with his band in Serbia. She came to the U.S. with big hopes and dreams, but Jibri did not give her the life she wished for. Money started flowing in after Miona launched her Miona Beauty brand, and she soon had a Porsche and seemingly bought one for Jibri on their first anniversary.
While Miona and Jibri did get married and flaunted their lavish lifestyle on social media, they broke up before they could celebrate their second wedding anniversary. Jibri revealed he had a difficult time being in a committed relationship. Miona made her relationship with Terzel Ron official in May 2024 and has since revealed a major new relationship milestone with him.
Patrick Mendes and Thaís Ramone
- Nationality: Patrick — American; Thaís — Brazilian
- Season 9 status: Married; welcomed daughter Aleesi in late 2022
- Current status: Divorcing; Patrick filed May 2026
Patrick Mendes and Thaís Ramone welcomed their daughter Aleesi, and for years appeared to be one of the season's quieter success stories. That changed in 2026. '90 Day Fiancé' star Patrick Mendes wants out of his 4-year marriage with Thaís Ramone, and filed for divorce, seeking sole legal and primary physical custody of their 3-year-old daughter, Aleesi. Court papers show Patrick makes twice as much as Thaís — $10k a month versus her $5k — so he is not asking for child or spousal support.
Yvette Arellano and Mohamed Abdelhamed
- Nationality: Yvette — American (Albuquerque, New Mexico); Mohamed — Egyptian
- Age gap: 23 years (Yve was 48, Mohamed was 25 during Season 9)
- Season 9 status: Married during the season finale
- Current status: Divorced
Yve and Mohamed met when he came across her swimsuit photo on Instagram and messaged her. Yve flew to see Mohamed in Egypt and got engaged to him despite their 23-year age gap. Mohamed started arguing with Yve over religion, culture, her clothes, and her free-spirited lifestyle once he came to America, and even threatened to find a new Green Card sponsor.
While Yve and Mohamed got married and were together for the Season 9 Tell All, the reunion exposed Mohamed for cheating — screenshots of texts between Mohamed and his girlfriend revealed he had been planning to leave Yve after getting his Green Card. Yve filed for divorce from Mohamed in September 2022, filing the paperwork in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Yve accused Mohamed of immigration fraud, while Mohamed accused her of physical and emotional abuse. Yve has since moved on and is now thriving in her career as a licensed acupuncturist, massage therapist, and model.
