The third season of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? premiered May 20 on TLC, and the series features memorable 90 Day Fiance couples -- which are each comprised of one U.S. citizen and his or her foreign partner -- continuing to fight for a fairy-tale ending.
While Nicole and Azan are only engaged because he had been denied a K-1 visa, all of the other couples are married and trying to make their relationships work. However, as shown in Sunday night's episode, several of the marriages are falling apart at the seams.
Below is the latest on each couple, according to Sunday night's broadcast of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?

Jorge and Anfisa
Jorge sat down alone with a counselor and said he loved Anfisa's honesty and wanted her to be happy. The counselor noted the one thing he loved most about his wife was something he wasn't giving her. Jorge, however, thought money was the root of their problems.
Money did play a role in their hardships, but Anfisa said Jorge did not listen to her and hear her. Anfisa insisted to the cameras money wouldn't solve their issues, as she simply wanted him to "stop lying" and stand up for her.
"Jorge has issues and he has to work on them, but he hasn't... he isn't willing," Anfisa said. "I've been thinking about divorcing Jorge for about a year because it's hard to deal with him and his lies."

Anfisa was later notified on social media by Jorge's ex-girlfriend that he allegedly has a 10-year old daughter.
Anfisa learned of this "crazy ex" three years prior, but Jorge denied he is the father of the child. Considering Jorge made a habit of lies, however, Anfisa cried over the idea her husband may have abandoned a child and lied to her about it for years.
"If this kid is really his," Anfisa said, "I don't ever want to have anything to do with Jorge again."

David and Annie
Annie and David met with David's sister Nancy, whom he hadn't seen in over four years. While Nancy was expecting a nice reunion with her brother, the gathering turned into a disappointment for Nancy when David asked to borrow money from her.
David wasn't sure what he could do for work, and Annie was annoyed and frustrated she came to the U.S. when her husband had no job prospects. Nancy decided not to lend David money in order to prevent him from falling into a deeper hole. David did not expect his sister would say no, but he understood her reasoning.
David felt "helpless" and was "hurting" because he "could not provide" for the woman he loved.

Nicole and Azan
Nicole and Azan were working through their problems, as Nicole was learning to trust her fiance more and Azan was, in turn, trying to prove he cared for her.
Azan explained to Nicole a previous trip to Belarus to visit his ex-girlfriend was likely the reason why his K-1 visa had been rejected. Their wedding was only one month away, so Nicole began to fear his dating history may affect the spousal visa they were hoping to obtain by tying the knot in Morocco. Nicole's plan was to return to America with Azan in one year after receiving the spousal visa.
But Nicole needed Azan to step up to the plate and get a job. Nicole wanted Azan to take care of her daughter and herself. After all, Azan had been unemployed since the beginning of their relationship and Nicole's savings were running out fast.
Nicole then visited with Azan's family, and he eventually met her mother for the first time in Morocco. Azan was well aware Nicole's mother questioned his motives, and he was right, because Nicole's mom thought he was hiding something.

Pedro and Chantel
Pedro was disappointed Chantel "could not behave" for a week or two while his sister was in town. Nicole "didn't want any problems" with Chantel, but she thought her brother's wife was being ridiculous and turning a silly issue into a "gigantic" thing.
Nicole also didn't understand how her brother thrived in a marriage where his wife's family questioned his actions and were skeptical of his intentions.
Chantel vented to cameras Nicole was being "completely ungrateful and disrespectful," but she tried to make amends in order to fix the situation with her husband. Chantel apologized to Pedro for the turn of events, but Pedro felt like it was insincere and she still had an attitude.

Chantel's loved ones were angry Pedro didn't seem to have her back, and her mother didn't think Pedro could protect and take care of her. Chantel, however, argued Pedro was "the perfect husband" when his relatives weren't involved.
Luis and Molly
Molly missed her daughter Olivia and wished they could mend their relationship. Molly wanted her daughter to come home and hoped Luis' absence would persuade her to return.
Molly then met with an immigration lawyer to learn what steps to take in order to get Luis out of her life "for good." Molly explained to the lawyer that Luis wanted to marry the girl who was on vacation abroad -- not the businesswoman and mother that she is on a daily basis.
Molly wanted to rid herself of Luis entirely, but she had signed an affidavit of support, meaning if Luis needed any government funding -- a hospital stay, for example -- she's "on the hook for 10 years." Even if Luis didn't receive his green card, she'd still be on the hook for his expenses.
Molly was told she must prove there was a scam on Luis' part, that he entered their marriage for the wrong reasons in order to prevent Luis from obtaining his green card. But Molly would not have a chance to plead her case until Luis' official interview, which would take place about a year from that date.
Paola and Russ
The couple was traveling back to the United States and Paola was so thankful to have reconnected with her family. Paola was beginning to feel very guilty that she was no longer taking care of her family. Paola was also having a tough time because tension existed between her husband and herself.
"I feel like Russ and I have a lot of issues we have not dealt with," she said.
Paola later opened up to her friend about losing her baby and how she suffered after the miscarriage. Paola was in pain and said Russ never asked her how she was feeling or doing. Paola needed more support and compassion, no matter how strong she may seem.
Paola met with a doctor towards the end of the episode and learned her condition of being Rh negative isn't a horrible thing, as she can receive a shot to prevent complications should she get pregnant again. Paola was clearly relieved, but that doesn't mean she was immediately ready to try for another baby.
