After falling in love nearly two decades ago, Nikki and Justin are sharing their love story during season 10 of 90 Day Fiancé. The couple faced many roadblocks leading up to their engagement, while they will likely hit other obstacles before walking down the aisle. Fans are likely wondering if Nikki and Justin are still together after filming wrapped.
How Did ‘90 Day Fiance’ Stars Nikki and Justin Meet?
Justin and Nikki met on a dating site in Moldova 17 years before they made their reality TV debut.
While they initially hit it off, Justin couldn’t accept her transgender identity and they parted ways. However, they missed each other following their split and eventually reconciled once Justin began to better understand Nikki’s gender identity.
The couple got engaged and now the Moldova native plans to move to the United States and marry Nikki.
When Did ‘90 Day Fiance’ Star Nikki Tell Justin She’s Transgender?
Nikki underwent a sex change surgery when she was 20 years old.
During the October 8 premiere episode, the New Jersey resident explained that she didn’t tell Justin that she’s transgender until two years into their relationship. She wasn’t able to tell him how she hoped and accidently stated she “used to be a man” during an argument.
“I traumatized him,” she recalled. “And he went home and he was depressed for a really long time. And I felt badaout that.”
Nikki and Justin’s split lasted for 15 years ago, though they’re now back together and are planning their future.
“Justin and I kept in touch throughout the years,” she explainedaout their reconciliation. “He had to go through things on his own and I had to go through things on my own.”
The pair reunited during a trip to Mexico, where Justin told her that she was the love of his life and he asked for her hand in marriage. She then applied for a K-1 visa so that they can live together.
What Happened When Nikki Traveled to Moldova?
While Nikki and Justin shared a warm reunion at the airport, Justin immediately told the U.S. native that he believed it was better for them to make plans during the day instead of at night. Nikki was offended and felt he was “shelving her in the dark.”
“Are you afraid of taking me out in public at night because you’re scared that they’re going to judge me on the way I look?” she asked him in a private confessional. “Or that they’re gonna be able to tell I used to be a man?”
Justin said it was her style, telling her that she looked like a “trans porn actress.”
“The women in our country [like] to [look] nice, [with] makeup [and] good hair, but only [for] parties and some celebrations,” he further explained. “But when Nikki go[es] out anywhere, she [is] dressing like this is some famous night party. This is why it’s strange for me. It means a lot of attention from people.”
On their first day together, Justin took Nikki to the park to play board games. During the date, Nikki questioned Justin’s feelings for her as she felt there was “no spark” and didn’t want to be with her intimately.
“You know, when you feel something inside you and you wanna make love to the woman that you’re marrying in the future,” the recording artist told producers. “Like after a nine-month break, it makes me question his love for me.
Are ‘90 Day Fiance’ Stars Nikki and Justin Still Together?
Nikki implied that she and Justin are still going strong after sharing a tribute to the Moldova native on October 23.
“Some cute moments after my arrival to Moldova 🇲🇩 w/ my love @justinmoldova,” she captioned the clip.
