Two couples return for the new season of ‘90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way’
Two familiar couples are back for the new season of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way.
Shekinah and Sarper made their 90 Day debut in season 5 of The Other Way, which aired in 2023. Shekinah, an esthetician from California, fell for Sarper, a playboy personal trainer, during a trip to Turkey. Now, she’s planning to move to Turkey to be with her “reformed bad boy” partner. But will his messy past threaten their future? Shekinah is determined to make her relationship work, even if it means getting a nose job so that Sarper finds her more attractive – and giving him final say over her new look.
“I am the one who will look at [it] every morning, every night,” he says in a trailer for the new season. “So, let me choose.”
Also returning to TV are Statler and Dempsey from 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. Statler, who is from the U.S., met Dempsey, who is from England, on a dating app. Now, she’s leaving America behind to embrace European van life with her girlfriend. But the change might have been too much, too soon, leading to conflicts for the pair.
“Maybe we just don’t get each other, full stop,” a frustrated Dempsey tells Statler in the trailer.

Four new couples will also appear in 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way Season 6.
Josh and Lily: Josh, who is from South Carolina, met Lily, who is from China, on a language-learning app. The two fell hard for each other and eventually got married. Now, Josh has quit his job and moved abroad to be with his wife. But he can’t work in China, which means Lily, a successful business owner, is the sole provider. Soon, financial stress and disagreements start to take their toll on the marriage.
James and Meitalia: James and his wife Metalia have spent the past 2½ years living in his home state of Maine. But now, a homesick Metalia is ready to return home to be with her family. James agrees to follow his partner halfway around the world, but once he arrives in Indonesia, problems start to bubble over with her family.
Corona and Ingi: Corona, a midwife-in-training from Pennsylvania, met Ingi after a night of partying in Iceland. Now, she’s ready to relocate to the island nation for love, despite her family’s concerns.
“Are there even Black people in Iceland?” one of her relatives asks after Corona breaks the news of her move.
Cultural differences aren’t the only challenge Corona and Ingi face. Not only is his dating experience is limited, but she discovers that she might not be able to continue her midwifery studies in another country. She’ll face a choice between following her heart or returning to the U.S. to pursue her dream career.
Joanne and Sean: Sean, who is from Ireland, isn’t shy about sharing what he wants in a woman. “I’m not your typical Irishman,” he says in the trailer. “American-Italian MILFs, that’s my type.” He found his perfect partner in Joanne, who is from New York. The pair have already gotten married, and now Joanne is ready to move to Ireland to be with her man. But they’ve been keeping their marriage a secret from their loved ones, and their decision to hide the truth for so long puts a strain on their relationship.
