90 Day Fiancé: The Most Successful Couples Who Met On Social Media

The 90 Day Fiancé franchise has introduced dozens of couples in the past seven years, some more successful than others. Since the franchise focuses on international romances between an American and someone foreign, many couples have met in unique ways. While the rare franchise couple met in person, many successful 90 Day Fiancé couples first met through social media.

A popular way for 90 Day Fiancé couples to meet is on international dating apps. However, many couples also first connected thanks to social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. Sliding into the messages of someone from another country might seem like a long shot, but many couples have actually turned their flirty messages into thriving relationships. Even more impressively, many of these relationships have survived in the real world.

90 Day Fiancé cast members face unique dating challenges. Couples often deal with language barriers and cultural differences. That is why taking a social media relationship into the real world can often result in breakups. However, a number of franchise couples have put the effort into making their marriages and relationships work. Discover the most successful 90 Day Fiancé couples who started things on social media.

Rebecca Parrott & Zied Hakimi (Facebook)

Rebecca Parrott and Zied Hakimi defied the odds with their Facebook romance. Older American grandmother Rebecca connected with young Tunisian man Zied on Facebook first on 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days, where the duo formed an instant romantic spark. However, audiences accused Rebecca of catfishing Zied due to her heavily filtered photos. Despite the awkwardness of the filters and their religious and cultural differences, Zied and Rebecca have made their relationship work. The couple married and appear very much in love on social media. Though Rebecca was called out for being insensitive to Zied’s conservative culture in Tunisia, it appears that it hasn’t affected her romance with the younger man. Zied seems to be thriving in the US and loves his time with his wife Rebecca.

Kyle Huckabee & Bajaree Boonma (Facebook)

Kyle Huckabee and Bajaree Boonma, better known as Noon, are one of the lucky couples who met on Facebook and fell in love. Kyle and Noon connected on the site when American Kyle was doing research for his trip to Noon’s home country of Thailand and first met in person why Kyle was on his vacation. Kyle and Noon naturally dealt with the issues of adapting to a relationship in the real world, including finding an appropriate apartment to live in together. However, their love was lauded for being honest, authentic, and genuine. Kyle and Noon consistently treated each other with kindness and are now considered one of the most beloved 90 Day Fiancé franchise couples. The duo proves that international Facebook romances can sometimes work out for the absolute best.

Evelyn Cormier & David Vázquez Zermeño (Facebook)

Evelyn Cormier and David Vázquez Zermeño are another franchise couple who met on Facebook. Evelyn was only 18 to David’s 27 when he saw the Facebook page for Evelyn’s bank and decided to message her. The Spanish man and American woman struggled with Evelyn’s demands and their conservative beliefs. While Evelyn was called out by 90 Day Fiancé fans for being bratty and stuck up, her relationship with David has nonetheless proven to be authentic. David supported Evelyn through her American Idol run, which saw her place in the Top 14 on season 17. The couple is still married and Evelyn and David moved to Los Angeles together.

Anna Campisi & Mursel Mistanoglu (Bee Keeping Forum)

Anna Campisi and Mursel Mistanoglu connected on social media on a unique platform. The American mom and her Turkish future husband actually met on an online bee enthusiast group. Their chance encounter gave way to a lasting romance, though it was not without its difficulties. For one, Anna and Mursel relied heavily on a translation app to communicate. Mursel also had to adapt to being a step-parent when he took his romance with Anna into the real world. However, Mursel and Anna proved that their online connection was the real deal. Their romance has been lasting, and audiences loved watching Mursel bond with Anna’s children. The fact that Anna and Mursel were two beekeepers who fell in love made them popular among franchise fans. The couple currently run Anna’s beekeeping business together and produce natural products with their honey.

Robert Springs & Anny Francisco (Facebook)

Robert Springs and Anny Francisco are yet another Facebook success story even if the odds were stacked against them. The Florida father and the Dominican Republic beauty talked every day for half a year until Robert booked a cruise that stopped in Anny’s home country. Robert was clearly smitten with his online partner, as he proposed to Anny within eight hours of meeting her in person. Their romance was soon met with harsh reality after Anny found out Robert wanted her to be a stay-at-home mom and Robert discovered Anny wanted a luxurious life. Anny also was shocked that Robert had five other children from four different women in addition to his young son she helped raise. However, the duo managed to navigate the real world and currently are still married and share two children together.

Kenneth Niedermeier & Armando Rubio (Online Support Group)

Kenneth Niedermeier and Armando Rubio met in an online support group for gay fathers and dated long-distance until American Kenny moved to Mexico to be with Armando. The 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way couple has since become regarded as one of the most beloved couples in the entire franchise. As the only same-sex male couple, Kenny and Armando grappled with the difficulties of Armando coming out to his conservative Mexican family who still isn’t entirely comfortable with viewing his PDA with Kenny. However, Armando and Kenny’s romance has proved to be the real deal. The couple is very much in love and they share a tender and real romance that is devoid of much of the franchise’s signature romantic drama and deception. Kenny and Armando made their love official in marriage and currently raise Armando’s adorable daughter Hannah.

Brandon Gibbs & Julia Trubkina (FaceTime)

Brandon Gibbs and Julia Trubkina had a fateful meeting that is unique to the franchise. Julia was working as a go-go dancer when Brandon saw the brunette beauty in the background of a FaceTime phone call. Brandon was so smitten with Julia that he got her information and immediately said she looked like his future wife. Though Julia faced considerable issues with Brandon’s overbearing parents after she discovered he still lived on their farm, her love for Brandon has pulled her through the drama. Julia and Brandon achieved independence on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 6 and share a gorgeous German Shepherd dog named Simba. It also appears that Julia gets along better with her in-laws outside of filming for 90 Day Fiancé content.
