[90 Day Fiance Spoiler Warning: This report includes spoilers about Brandon and Julia and if the 90 Day Fiance couple is still together.]

Brandon, a 27-year-old pest-control technician who helps to run his parents' farm in Dinwiddie, VA, entered his first serious relationship with Julia, a 26-year-old go-go club dancer from Krasnodar City, Russia.

Brandon said he fell in love with Julia at first sight because she was so beautiful, and he immediately pictured her becoming his future wife. The couple then talked on the phone and Brandon flew to Russia after just a few weeks.

The couple then applied for a Tourist Visa so Julia could visit him in the United States, but once the consulate learned Brandon was her boyfriend, she was told to apply for a K-1 visa instead.

Since Brandon couldn't stand the thought of living without Julia, after only five months of a long-distance relationship, he invited her to join him in Iceland -- and that's where he proposed marriage to her.

The couple then traveled to France where both of their families met for the first time.

"At first, my parents [Ron and Betty] weren't sure about Julia. They weren't sure if she wanted a Green Card or money," Brandon said.

Brandon told Julia over videochat they needed to live with his parents to save some money because he had burned through their savings from the trips they had taken as well as the K-1 visa process. Brandon said he had spent almost $10,000 in seven months.

Julia also wouldn't be able to get a job in the United States for a while, so Brandon knew he had to support her.

Julia worried about living with Brandon's parents for too long, but he promised they'd leave at some point and not stay forever.

However, Brandon had yet to tell Julia that they'd be sleeping in separate bedrooms.

Betty was apparently concerned about Julia's career as a dancer, saying she hoped she was never a prostitute, stripper or call-girl. Betty also wanted to get Julia on some birth control against her will.

Julia explained that while she didn't want to welcome children for another two or three years, she never had an accident before with her serious ex-boyfriend.

Once at the airport, Julia ran into Brandon's arms and she called Brandon "perfect." She appeared ecstatic to be reunited with her long-distant love.

But Julia's joy faded quickly when she learned about Betty and Ron's strict household rules.

"I can't control my mother. I can't control how they will interact. They both have really strong personalities, and I just feel like they're going to clash," Brandon lamented in a confessional.

Once at the farm in Virginia, Julia learned how to feed the animals and she had "an awesome reaction," according to Brandon, but her mind began to change with the early-morning work hours and Betty's high expectations.

"I don't want this. This is not the life [of] my dreams. Brandon say we need to stay here before we marry, but I say to him, 'No, Brandon, this is not going to work.' I need to leave," Julia vented in a confessional.

Julia was ready to go back to Russia after only one day of working at his parents' farm.

"I wish she would see this as an opportunity and just give life on the farm a chance," Brandon told the cameras.

But Brandon and Julia still planned to get married, and they set their wedding date on May 9, which Betty pointed out was Mother's Day weekend. Brandon's father agreed May 9 would be "a terrible wedding day."

Brandon liked choosing a date that made Julia happy, even though Betty wasn't happy about it. Ron pushed for May 2, but Julia wanted May 9 because Brandon first contacted her with a sweet message on the ninth of a different month.

Julia stood her ground because May 9 was what she wanted, and Brandon defended her and stood up for her much to his family's dismay.

With 75 days to wed, Brandon felt torn between Julia and his disappointed parents, who believed Brandon had neglected his responsibilities at the farm.

Betty and Ron hoped Julia would change her ways and have an appreciation for the farm, otherwise, Ron noted, "I don't know if it's going to work." Betty wanted to gain a daughter rather than lose a son, and Ron was especially frustrated about running the farm on their own.

Betty and Ron therefore asked Brandon and Julia to both contribute more, but Julia complained to the cameras she was already helping out -- including cleaning up the animals' poop -- and so she was angry Betty was asking her to work even harder.

"I came here to be with your son, not to take care of your stuff," Julia complained in a confessional.

Meanwhile, Brandon was sick of being scolded by his parents, and he was also upset that Julia's presence had ruined the dynamic of his family.

"It's not all working like we wanted," Brandon said, asking Julia to try harder around the farm.

"I'll try harder for you, Brandon," Julia concluded.

To make his parents happy, Brandon woke up early the next day. He said it killed him that Julia didn't want any part of working on the farm with him, but she decided to wake up early as well to show her effort.

Ron told Brandon that he'd own the farm one day, but Brandon told the cameras the farm wasn't his dream -- only Julia was his dream and enjoying a life with her doing whatever makes them happy.

Julia later complained to her father Igor on the phone how she looked like a dirty pig while working on the farm, and she lamented about how she wanted to move out of Brandon's parents' home.

"If I stay here, I will lose my mind soon, sitting around all day cleaning poop," Julia told her dad.

Julia said Brandon wasn't taking care of her because he wasn't trying hard enough to fix the situation. She wanted her man to stand up for her and move them somewhere else.

Igor agreed that Brandon needed to "man up," put his foot down and make his own decisions, and Julia admitted she wasn't sure whether the wedding was going to happen after all.

"If he doesn't change, I think I will go home," Julia noted, adding that she was tired of hearing Brandon saying they'd move "soon" without really acting on his promise.

Julia then FaceTimed Brandon and said she no longer wanted to live on the farm and hated it as well as all of her chores.

"I hate this place," Julia complained. "Brandon, I don't want to stay here. I want to leave now... You hear me?!"

Brandon asked Julia to stop ranting and raving and asked if they could talk about it once he returned home from work. However, Julia pushed to have a conversation immediately, and so Brandon obliged.

Julia said if they didn't move, she would return to Russia.

"You don't care about this. You not fix problem and I not feel you love me. And I don't love you too if you don't love me. I hate you now, Brandon. I hate you," Julia complained.

Brandon told the cameras that Julia had no idea how lucky they were to be living in a place for free while he was saving money for their future together. Brandon felt like his effort was in vain due to Julia's reaction.

Brandon insisted to Julia that he was trying and their situation was just temporary. Julia argued, "I try for you!" But Brandon said the work wasn't as hard as Julia was making it out to be.

Still, Julia told Brandon they needed to leave his parents' house or else she was going to leave him.

"You choose," Julia said.

Brandon said he loved Julia and it hurt him to hear she'd be willing to leave, but Julia said she had given Brandon her life and so he needed to do the same for her.

"It's hard to hear, but I'm going to fix this for us. I'm going to talk to my parents and tell them we're leaving because I don't want to lose you. I'm going to be the man that you want me to be," Brandon said.

Julia was so excited to start a new future with Brandon, but Brandon was worried about disappointing and upsetting his parents.

Regardless, Brandon was clearly ready to choose Julia over anything or anyone else.

So are Brandon and Julia still together now or did the 90 Day Fiance couple split up?

Julia took to Instagram in mid-January 2021 and dropped major hints she and Brandon remain a couple.

On January 20, Julia posted a hilarious photo with Brandon in which she stuffed her shirt and asked fans to come up with a funny name for the picture. And about a week earlier, Julia also posted a sweet selfie of the couple.

"Just cute photo #90dayfiance#Brandonandjulia," Julia wrote alongside the January 12 picture with a blowing-kiss emoticon.

Several days earlier, Julia uploaded a photo of Brandon giving her a piggyback ride.

"It seems to me that this week we will not be in the episode. a little positive to you all #90dayfiance #90dayfiance8 #Brandonandjulia," Julia captioned the photo, adding three kissing emoticons.

And a photo surfaced on Reddit of Brandon and Julia spending New Year's Eve together in someone's apartment with two male friends.

While the picture indicates the group had welcomed 2021 together, many Reddit users commented on how Julia appeared to be photoshopped into the picture and whether the photo was authentic.

Julia also conducted a recent Q&A with her followers on Instagram Stories and dropped additional hints that suggest she is still with Brandon and living in the United States.

"Everything is pretty nice," Julia said of her current life. "It's pretty in my life. I've never had, like, an easy life," Julia said. "I all the time chose a hard life."

Julia said her English "is much better than before," probably because she's around English-speaking people all the time.

"I try to learn everything but it's so hard for me," Julia added.

When asked whether she likes living in Virginia, Julia responded, "I guess you'll watch the episode to see how I'm enjoying it."

When an Instagram user called Julia and Brandon "the cutest couple," Julia replied, "Thank you so much."

Julia also revealed she currently has a great relationship with Brandon's parents, although there is tension between them on the currently-airing season of 90 Day Fiance.

A fan asked how Julia essentially puts up with her "parents-in-law," and Julia responded, "I love my parents a lot because my parents want what is best for me. If I could choose other parents I would never choose other parents because my parents are the best and I love them a lot."

In addition, Julia said she hopes she can "start working" soon and put her degree in design to good use in either apartments or homes.

As far as her favorite experience in the United States goes, Julia revealed, "I like people in America because everyone smiles and everyone tries to help. You never ask for help but people try. This is so cool."

When asked whether she likes Russia or America better, Julia said there are some things she likes better in Russia and other things she likes better in the United States.

She noted the countries are just "different." For example, Julia said she cannot drive yet in America while she has her license back in Russia.

Julia shared excitement, however, when someone mentioned all the states she can travel to in the United States. Julia said she'd love to visit New York especially.

Julia told her followers it was "hard to leave [her] house and family" in Russia, but she added, "My parents understand this."

But Julia played coy when asked direct questions about whether she married Brandon and is still in the United States and living with Brandon's parents.

Julia admitted she doesn't want to "get in trouble" by breaking her NDA contract with TLC.

When one fan wrote that it seems like she married Brandon, Julia replied, "I don't know!"

And she explained to fans, "I can't say where I stay right now or what I do right now."

But Julia did admit her favorite thing about Brandon is that "he is so cute." Julia beamed when talking about Brandon, so it appears unlikely that they've broken up.

Julia also appeared to spend Christmas in America, as she posted a photo of herself posing next to a giant Christmas tree decorated in gold ornaments inside of a store.

"I know how important Christmas is in America! it is a sweet and family holiday when all dreams come true," Julia captioned the photo.

"in Russia the New Year is more important on December 31st. I wish everyone that wishes come true, love and be loved! #90dayfiance #90dayfiance8 #Brandonandjulia."
