Well, according to a source, Tiffany and Ronald definitely made it work and are "completely back on," In Touch Weekly reported.
In fact, the source said Ronald broke up with Lauren and focused his attention solely on the mother of his child, Carley. (Ronald and Tiffany also co-parent her son Ronald from a previous relationship).
Tiffany reportedly posted and deleted a screenshot of a videochat she had with Ronald via Instagram Stories on Sunday, April 10. The video showed Ronald laying on a pillow with his eyes closed as Tiffany rested her head on his arm with her eyes closed as well.
The South Africa native also apparently deleted old pictures he had with Lauren on social media.
Although Ronald and Tiffany have broken up and reconciled multiple times throughout the course of their tumultuous marriage, fans really thought they were finished last year.
Ronald went Instagram official with Lauren in mid-November 2021 by sharing a sweet video montage of the pair and writing, "You picked me up when I was down!! You're such a support for me and every moment with you is such a joy and a pleasure. I enjoy every moment."
Tiffany reacted to Ronald's unexpected romance on her Instagram Story at the time and said in a now-expired video, "Ronald and I are no longer together but we are still married on paper. We did file for the separation or whatever, but nothing is really in concrete yet."
"[Lauren] flew from America to see him, which I think is a little bit -- a lot -- out of line, because he's still a married man!" she said.

Tiffany called Ronald "a cheater" and proceeded to bash Lauren by saying, "I don't deal with these kind of women. It just takes a special kind of person to, like, be with someone when they're still married."

"I pray that he does not put [Lauren] through an ounce of what he put me through. I do care for him. I know inside he's a good person, and I don't know her, but she seems like a nice girl," Tiffany explained.
"It's really hard to say that because it's painful and hurtful, but a woman like me has no choice but to be strong. I'm not going to let this hurt me more than it already has... He's just a little quick! He's a little quick about [moving on]."
Ronald and Tiffany starred on Season 1 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way followed by Season 6 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?.
When Ronald announced he was divorcing Tiffany in August 2021, Tiffany called him "a cancer."
"I don't care anymore. He is a cancer that I need to get rid of immediately, and I wish luck to whoever is his next victim," Tiffany snapped in a statement to In Touch.
Tiffany said she felt ready to move on from Ronald because she had already been taking care of her two kids alone for years already.
Tiffany said of the split in Summer 2021, "I feel that it is my responsibility as his wife to help him when he's down. Unfortunately, [he's] been down since I met him, so, it's been five-plus years of me supporting him with nothing in return."

Tiffany also accused Ronald at the time of allegedly seeking attention and pity from strangers when she had supposedly been paying for everything in their relationship and supporting her husband through good and bad times.
Ronald, however, claimed Tiffany was controlling and he wasn't "even allowed" to go to the gym without her blessing.
"As much as I love her and I care for her and she's the mother of my kids, I don't know that I would even want to fix it," Ronald confessed. "I highly doubt it. I'm tired of holding back and keeping quiet."
Before their big blowout fight that appeared to end their relationship, Tiffany and Ronald broke up in July 2021, around the time of Carley's second birthday, and reconciled.
Tiffany shared alleged emails and Instagram DMs from Ronald at the time in which the South Africa native had insisted he was "done" with his marriage and even threatened to expose his wife on social media and hire a lawyer.
Ronald allegedly told Tiffany this past summer that he could find someone "better" who will treat him "right" and "won't lie."
"F-ck you for that... I'm gonna block you again... I already threw everything out of the house... [I] hope you find pleasure in what you did. I'm literally nauseous thinking about you now lol... I'm free now, thank you [for] lying... I won't respect you for sh-t again," he allegedly wrote to Tiffany.

Ronald allegedly continued, "I do not want to know nothing about you. I don't want to hear about you; all I want is my kids. I'm done with you, you can move on. I move on. Let's do that. You can say I'm cheating [but] you are the one lying about the visa."
Ronald previously accused Tiffany of not actually submitting the paperwork for his spousal visa, which would have allowed him to finally move to the United States.
But Tiffany also claimed Ronald had called her "worthless" and "useless" and said she was being emotionally abused my her husband.
Tiffany and Ronald also came close to breaking up in May 2021, and their first nasty split occurred in January 2020 -- which also clearly didn't stick.

She claimed in 2020 he had suffered multiple relapses of the gambling addiction he had sought treatment for in a rehab facility years ago.
On January 28, 2020, Tiffany told her Instagram followers in regards to her marriage "some things are just irreparable," and Ronald had claimed on social media he'd be "filing for divorce in South Africa" after a year-and-a-half of marriage.
On 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's first season in 2019, Tiffany and Ronald were shown getting married on the series in South Africa despite their financial issues and Tiffany's constant fear Ronald may relapse from his previous gambling addiction.
The sparring spouses were last shown trying to work through their issues and stay together on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s Tell-All event for Season 6 in Summer 2021.
