90 Day Fiancé: Natalie Reveals The Reason For Her 20-Pound Weight Gain

Natalie Modovtseva of 90 Day Fiancé is sparking pregnancy rumors with her suspected weight gain, but is that really the truth? Changes in Natalie’s on-screen and online appearance include her looking healthier than she did on TLC. A fuller face and chest sparked rumors of Mike Youngquist’s partner being pregnant, while some others guessed Natalie had spent some dollars on implants. However, the 90 Day Fiancé star has finally revealed the painful reason behind her 20-pound weight gain.

Baby fever was in full swing for Natalie in 90 Day Fiancé season 7 when she repeatedly asked Mike to give her a kid. Natalie had even managed to convince her elderly mother about her move to America by promising her grandchildren from Mike. It soon became evident what was making Natalie nag Mike for babies when she blamed her ticking biological clock at 35, and also her ex-husband for not agreeing with her needs. The Ukrainian came clean about divorcing her successful husband of eight years due to him not wanting children, and Mike came into Natalie’s life at the perfect time.

The speculations of Natalie and Mike having had a baby were in full swing even before their 90 Day Fiancé season 8 announcement. The couple’s miscommunication issues during Natalie’s 90 days didn’t carry any baby talk, but these rumors kept fans guessing if the former actress appeared pregnant in any scenes. Natalie’s Instagram is what fueled the confusion as some of her followers observed how most of her photos were only from the waist up. Still, Natalie, who’s been spilling quite the tea in her comments lately, never confirmed or denied the numerous fan questions. Until earlier this week, that is. Natalie alluded to her changing appearance being the result of a 20-pound weight gain and not pregnancy.

A well-meaning 90 Day Fiancé fan commented, “With what you went thru I am happy to see you living your best life, congrats,” on Natalie recent Instagram post. And Natalie chose to reply to her supporter by first thanking them, and then revealing, “I was so stressed and kept eating and put [on] like 20 pounds.” Natalie, who has an educational background in journalism and psychology, added that she is slowly getting back to her “form” and on her “feet.”

When Mike had shown off his classy Ukrainian fiancé to the world on 90 Day Fiancé season 8, he’d confessed that Natalie was into plenty of physical activities. Old photos showed Natalie doing scuba diving, snowboarding, and rock climbing. Perhaps the 90 Day Fiancé star is finally thinking about engaging in some of her favorite past activities.

90 Day Fiancé airs Sundays at 8pm EST on TLC.
