Top 15 messiest breakups on 90 Day Fiance
TLCThe 90 Day Fiancé franchise has aired multiple breakups between couples over the years, and many of these relationships turn out messy and don’t end well.
90 Day Fiancé is a reality show about international couples who reunite abroad or in the US to build a life together.
In more recent seasons, the show has amped up the drama and lowered its success rate, causing 90 Day Fiancé couples to either get divorced or break up before they even make it to the altar.
Since the couples share their lives for the world to see, their exposure to a reality show adds more fuel to the fire. This makes it more likely for relationships to become messy and end on a bad note.
