90 Day Fiancé: All Cast Members Who Were Absent From Tell-All Reunions

The 90 Day Fiancé franchise is known for its reunions, and it’s time to talk about cast members who didn’t participate in the Tell-All action. The 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 5 Tell-All just aired without a featured couple. The reunion programs have become a beloved part of the franchise, as they give cast members the chance to meet in person, reflect on the past season together, and explore juicy drama and rumors. There is plenty to learn about 90 Day Fiancé cast members who were not invited to the Tell-All events, or chose not to attend.

For many viewers, reunion shows are often considered some of the best facets of reality TV seasons. However, they can also be very important for the featured cast members. Many 90 Day Fiancé stars arrive at the reunion shows eager to defend themselves against critics. The 90 Day Fiancé Tell-All episodes allow the reality celebs to explain their sides of things in their own words, and provide important updates about their relationships. Since the Tell-All is typically filmed a year after the original show is filmed, it often serves as a platform for reflection and high drama.

Missing a 90 Day Fiancé Tell-All prevents show stars from sharing their takes on their seasons. However, cast members do sometimes choose to willingly skip out on their show reunions. On the other hand, now and then, controversy has prevented some cast members from being invited to rehash their seasons. Find out why the following franchise cast members failed to appear at their respective Tell-All shows, and see which celebs were prevented from appearing in future TLC content.

Paul & Karine Staehle

Paul and Karine Staehle have appeared in multiple franchise shows, including Before the 90 Days seasons 1 and 2, 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 5, and 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 1. The notorious franchise duo was notably absent from the Happily Ever After? Tell-All amid ongoing legal issues. Paul and Karine, who appear to now be permanently over, were dealing with one of many marital altercations that involved the police. Paul alleged that TOW‘s Karine was researching divorce and child support, which led to a heated argument that resulted in the police coming and the duo filing restraining orders against each other. The couple would later drop the restraining orders before once again breaking up.

Karine Staehle

While Paul and Karine have missed the Tell-All as a couple, there was also an instance when Paul appeared without Karine. A year before they failed to attend their reunion, Paul appeared at a Tell-All that did not include his wife. She was mysteriously absent from The Other Way Tell-All, although viewers believed that Karine had been present to film, despite Paul claiming that he was there alone. She allegedly was not in the right mental state for filming, but Paul was. However, he made it appear as though he had not arrived with Karine, which led to theories among viewers about what had actually happened.

Stephanie Davison & Ryan Carr

Stephanie Davison and Ryan Carr entertained and occasionally alarmed viewers with their antics during 90 Day Fiancé season 8. Stephanie shocked viewers when she broke up with Ryan and tried to replace him with his cousin, Harris Flowers. However, franchise fans were also concerned that Stephanie appeared intoxicated and incoherent during many of her scenes. Given the concerning state Stephanie appeared in during the show, viewers were not surprised to discover that she and her ex Ryan did not attend the season 8 Tell-All. Since many viewers felt that Stephanie and Ryan’s storyline was unfinished, she hosted her own reunion-style program on Instagram. Stephanie has also claimed that she and Ryan were forced to falsify their relationship for the cameras after breaking up.

Geoffrey Paschel & Varya Malina

Geoffrey Paschel and Varya Malina are one of the most controversial couples in the entire franchise. Geoffrey had been arrested for assaulting his ex-partner before he appeared on Before the 90 Days season 4, although he wasn’t officially charged for the offense at the time. The network claimed that Geoffrey had misled them about his arrest and criminal history. This led to Geoffrey not being invited to the Tell-All. While Varya was invited to the Tell-All, she opted not to appear in order to show solidarity with Geoffrey. Though Geoffrey thought that the network gave in to fan pressure, he is now serving an 18-year prison sentence as a convicted domestic abuser. Varya is controversially still standing by Geoffrey, which angers most 90 Day Fiancé franchise fans.

Olulowo Shodpie & Narkyia Lathan

Olulowo Shodpie and Narkyia Lathan are one franchise couple that viewers might not have kept up with. The duo appeared on 90 Day Fiancé season 4. Many viewers were confused as to why the couple didn’t appear during the season 4 Tell-All, as no explanation was provided for their absence. Olulowo memorably lied to Narkyia about major things during 90 Day Fiancé, including what country he lived in. He also falsely claimed that the mother of his child was dead. Despite this, the couple remained together and are currently living in the United States with their child.

Caleb Greenwood and Alina Kozhevnikova

Caleb Greenwood and Alina Kozhevnikova are the most recent franchise couple to miss a Tell-All. Like Geoffrey and Varya, Alina and Caleb were not invited to the reunion because Alina was fired. During Before the 90 Days season 5, viewers uncovered several past racist posts Alina had shared over the years. This led to TLC officially firing Alina in the first half of the season. As a result, Alina and Caleb’s storyline was hastily concluded, which resulted in them disappearing from the second half of the season and not being invited to the Tell-All.

Alina has shared that she’s thinks it’s unfair that she was let go when fellow cast member Mike Berk was allowed to appear in the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, despite the reveal of his online racist posts. However, Caleb appears to still be on good terms with TLC, and promoted the Tell-All, even though he didn’t appear on it.
