’90 Day Fiancé’ Season 1 Cast — Where Are They Now?
For more than a decade, TLC has spotlighted stories of international love on 90 Day Fiancé. Dozens of couples have appeared on the original show and its many spinoffs, which include 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, and 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. However, it all began back in 2014 with four couples who agreed to share their lives with TV viewers. Where are those couples today? Let’s check in with the 90 Day Fiancé Season 1 cast in 2026.
Russ and Paola Mayfield
Russ, who is from Oklahoma, fell for Paola while he worked in Columbia. They wed in 2013 and welcomed a son, Axel, a few years later. They’ve had their ups and downs over the years, including a separation in 2021. The split came after Russ lost his job during the pandemic, and the couple had to move into an RV, ET reported. However, they eventually reconciled and are still together. Since her stint on 90 Day, Paola has embarked on a career as a wrestler with Women of Wrestling.
Russ and Paola celebrated their 12th anniversary in October 2025.
“12 years of love, growth, and grace. I’m thankful for every moment with you,” Russ wrote on Instagram. “Here’s to laughter, forgiveness, and a love that lasts a lifetime.”
Alan and Kirlyam Cox
Alan and Kirlyam met in her native Brazil when he visited the country on a mission trip. She was 12; he was 20. But their romance did not begin until years later when Alan returned for a friend’s wedding. He and Kirlyam fell in love, and she moved to the U.S. so they could be together. In 2017, they welcomed their first child, a boy named Liam. Baby no. 2, a boy named Enzo, arrived in 2021. They celebrated their 12th wedding anniversary in September 2025, he shared on Instagram.
Louis and Aya Gattone
Louis met Aya, who is from the Philippines, on an international dating site. They married after she came to the U.S. on a K-1 visa. The couple welcomed their first child in 2018. Their second son was born in 2020. Aya is also stepmom to Louis’ two sons from a previous relationship.
Louis and Aya are still together in 2026. They live in Indiana, where they own a craft shop and apparel business called Lola Lily’s.
Mike and Aziza Eloshway
Like the other three couples from 90 Day Fiancé Season 1, Mike and Aziza are still together. But their story is not as happy as that of their castmates. The couple met online when he was 31, and she was 21. She moved from Russia to Ohio to be with Mike, whom she later married. They welcomed a daughter in 2019.
In 2024, Mike was found guilty of possessing material depicting child sexual abuse. He was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison. Before his sentencing, Aziza wrote a letter to the judge in support of her spouse, Us Weekly reported, calling him “a loving father, a caring husband, [and] a loyal friend.”
Past seasons of 90 Day Fiancé are streaming on discovery+ and HBO Max.
