90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days Season 5 couple Ella and Johnny
TLC
Ella is a 29-year-old from Idaho Falls, ID, and Johnny is a 34-year-old from Jinan, China.
Ella, a country girl from Idaho with a self-proclaimed obsession with Asian culture, met Johnny, her "Asian prince" on a social media platform exclusively for Asian men and white women.
Once they started video chatting, they realized they'd found their soul mates in one another.
The pandemic has made it difficult for them to meet in person, and China's borders remain closed, but after a year and a half and a number of false starts, they're finally preparing for Johnny to visit Ella in her hometown and get engaged.
Despite having video chatted "intimately" over the past few months, Ella's history with rejection from past romantic interests due to her weight has her worried about what it will be like when she and Johnny are together in person.
Still, they're both ready to prove that their love can conquer all, if they can overcome family skepticism and pandemic barriers.
