90 Day Fiance couple Jovi Dufren and Yara Zaya have dodged questions about reports they are married and already welcomed their first child together last year.

Jovi, a 29-year-old from New Orleans, LA, and Yara, a 25-year-old from Ukraine, had a baby only a few months before Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance premiered on TLC in December 2020, In Touch Weekly reported.

According to the magazine, Yara posted a baby registry on January 4, 2020 on Amazon and then the couple got married in a Las Vegas wedding ceremony the following month.
The items listed in Yara's baby registry were for a baby girl due to arrive in September 2020.

When asked about the baby rumors in a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Jovi shared, "We see a lot of rumors, from us being married to us having a baby from, I mean, Yara's deported."
"Yeah," Yara agreed.
"I mean, you name it and it's happened," Jovi added of the speculation that's out there.
"So everybody's going to have to watch the show to find out," Jovi added, "but it's going to be interesting. We have a good story to tell, I promise you that."
Pregnancy rumors have been floating around ever since Yara posted a December 31 Instagram photo that appeared to show two unique ornaments -- a baby and a pink heart with the word "mom" on it -- hanging on a Christmas tree she was posing next to.

The latest episode of 90 Day Fiance's eighth season, which aired Sunday night on TLC, teased that Yara might be pregnant with Jovi's child while she was still trying to adjust to life in New Orleans, LA.
Yara complained to a friend that she was feeling nauseous and sick all the time, but Yara didn't seem to think she was pregnant because she had only been in the United States for a month at the time and claimed she and Jovi had been "careful."

"I cannot even [think] about having a baby right now. I am not ready yet. I don't even know if I want to get married and live here," Yara complained in the episode.
When ET asked Yara if she still feels the same way about kids, Yara explained, "Not that I am not ready for kids, it's the fact I am not ready to have a kid in another country without my friends and family, when I don't know what's going on."

"I want to have a kid so much, however, as everyone knows I was pregnant before and had a miscarriage and it was so [hard] for me because I really wanted that baby so much," Yara said.
Yara said a big part of her anxiety about becoming a mom was the fact Jovi had to leave for weeks at a time for his job and Yara would therefore be left alone in New Orleans with a baby.
"It's the fact I don't know how I can do that by myself and all of the things, and I don't know what I would do if something happens to Jovi. This scares me much more than having kids," Yara reasoned.
Yara confirmed, however, she has forgiven Jovi for essentially leaving and neglecting her after she experienced a miscarriage while the pair were visiting Albania.
"I feel like I got a bad rap for that," Jovi told ET.

"I left her to go to work, and we didn't know she was going to have to go to a doctor and have this operation and everything in Albania."

"So I left thinking, 'She's going to go back to Ukraine in a few days -- get her passport back and then go back, and then she'll see a doctor in Ukraine and figure out what will happen next,'" Jovi continued.
"But she started having stomach pain and had to get rushed to the emergency room, and things happened a lot faster than either one of us really expected."
Yara said at the end of the day, she decided to move forward with Jovi as a couple because she loved him.
