Danielle and Mohamed: the franchise's most infamous split
When season 2 premiered in 2014, viewers were introduced to Danielle Mullins, a single mother from Ohio, and Mohamed Jbali, a 26-year-old from Tunisia. Their romance was complicated by a 15-year age gap, cultural clashes, and financial struggles.
Mohamed came to America on a K-1 visa after he and Danielle became engaged online. He learnt about Danielle's debts only after they got married.
The pair tied the knot in 2014 but split two months later after Mohamed got his green card. Their drama intensified during 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? as Danielle felt used and tried to get him deported back to Tunisia.
When Mohamed begged her to file for divorce rather than an annulment, Danielle agreed so he could remain in America. The pair finalised their divorce in 2017.
Where are Danielle and Mohamed now?
Danielle has since enrolled in a nursing programme. She graduated from nursing school with impressive grades and has said she is determined to focus on her career rather than returning to reality TV.
Mohamed, who used to work as a trucker, later revealed he works as a day trader. Surprisingly, the former couple reconciled. Danielle revealed that Mohamed visited her in Ohio in 2022 and said they are friends.
Despite their tumultuous past and divorce, Danielle and Mohamed have built a friendship. As of April 2024, Danielle spoke about Mohamed's new wife, Jillian Lee Jbali, saying she had known her name since January of that year.

Hitch was arrested in January 2017 on battery charges stemming from an alleged fight with Cássia. The charges were later dropped, but marital strife continued. The couple separated in 2017 and divorced in 2018.
Jason Hitch died on a Tuesday night of Covid in a Florida hospital. He was 45. His sister confirmed he died of complications from Covid-19. He was not vaccinated and had no pre-existing medical conditions.
"We are saddened to hear about the passing of Jason Hitch and send our sincere condolences to his family and friends at this time," TLC said in a statement.

While the couple married at the end of their 90 days, Danny's father openly disagreed with their interracial relationship.
