Elizabeth from Tampa, FL, and Andrei from Chisinau, Moldova, met on a dating app in 2016 and found fame when they appeared on 90 Day Fiance's fifth season, which was followed by a stint on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s fourth season.RELATED LINK: '90 DAY FIANCE' COUPLES NOW: WHO IS STILL TOGETHER?

Elizabeth was 27 years old and Andrei was 31 when he moved to America on a K-1 visa in September 2017.
Elizabeth's family didn't like Andrei because they thought he was rude and controlling and might be after a Green Card, but Elizabeth chose to follow her heart and marry him anyway in October 2017.
After announcing they were expecting their first child in October 2018, Elizabeth gave birth to a baby girl, Eleanor Louise, on January 3, 2019.
On Season 5 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Elizabeth and Andrei were shown having their second wedding in Moldova; however, the wedding plans seemed to bring out the worst in them.
Elizabeth said she saw a "chauvinistic" side of Andrei in his home country that she didn't like, and Andrei snapped at his wife multiple times during wedding planning to "shut up." Andrei accused his wife of being "OCD" and "annoying."
Charlie and Andrei also nearly fist-fought at a restaurant, which Elizabeth called "outrageous and embarrassing." And at one point, Andrei yelled at Chuck and Charlie to just pack their bags and leave Moldova.
Charlie also appeared to have a little too much to drink, which resulted in him giving an offensive and inappropriate speech in front of Andrei's family and friends at the lavish wedding.
"Don't come to America and try to live off my dad," Charlie said. "Don't ask my dad for money, okay?... Come to America and earn your sh-t, okay?!"

During the Season 5 Tell-All for 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Elizabeth said quarantining with Andrei amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic put a lot of stress and strain on their relationship.

Elizabeth didn't feel Andrei took on all the responsibilities of a stay-at-home dad when Andrei tried to claim he was the "man of the house," and Elizabeth's sister Jenn called Andrei "cold" and "aggressive."
On the Season 6 premiere of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Andrei had received his real estate license and hoped to make big money.
Andrei asked Chuck, who owns a property management business, for a $100,000 loan so he could start his own business of flipping houses, but Chuck quickly replied, "That ain't happening," and he couldn't believe Andrei even had "the audacity" to ask.
Chuck ultimately offered Andrei a job but said Andrei needed to get his hands dirty and learn the ropes before he would essentially finance a company for Andrei to start.
Andrei, however, had to work and get along with Elizabeth's siblings in order to work for Chuck, and everyone knew that was going to be tricky given Andrei and Charlie's tense past. Andrei called Charlie "an arrogant person."
Elizabeth later met with her family for a business meeting. Becky and Jenn thought Andrei was "trying to take the easy way out," and Charlie wasn't about to let Andrei into the family business with open arms.
"I've got one thing to say: f-ck him. If he wants to do this, earn it!" Charlie yelled.
Elizabeth, feeling upset and defeated at the family meeting, then stormed out of the house.

Elizabeth admitted she was "so over" the battle between her husband and her family, saying she felt "drained and exhausted" that common ground could not be found.
Once Elizabeth got home, Andrei told his wife of Charlie, "He's a very lucky person that he didn't get knocked out and, in fact, he never apologized for what he did. There is no way I am working with that bum in general."
Elizabeth said Charlie's behavior was "inexcusable" but the men needed to bury the hatchet in order to run a successful business. Elizabeth told Andrei that Charlie is a stubborn man who doesn't apologize, but Andrei said he needed to hear Charlie admit he's "a pig."
Elizabeth finally convinced the two men to meet up, and Charlie essentially apologized for being disrespectful at the wedding.
But Charlie said Andrei needed to "humble himself" and not make demands. Andrei told Charlie in turn that he didn't care to be friends for life -- he just cared about making money and providing for his wife and child.
Andrei then started work with Chuck and Elizabeth said she was excited about the opportunity to be a stay-at-home mom and spend some good quality time with her daughter Eleanor.
Andrei told the cameras he had big plans for his family and he felt proud to be "the man of the house" and hopefully make a lot of money.
But when Chuck brought Andrei to his first property, drama erupted.
Charlie was inside the house and Becky, who serves as Chuck's listening agent, also showed up for the walk-through and wondered why she hadn't been invited.

Chuck confirmed Andrei was not going to be one of the listing agents and he'd share a portion of his own profits with Andrei, but Becky complained Andrei was trying to take money from her and it wasn't going to happen.
Elizabeth and Andrei then learned Andrei's two-year Green Card was about to expire and so they had to hire a lawyer and go through the process of renewing it for a 10-year Green Card.

Elizabeth expressed fear Andrei's permanent Green Card may get denied and her husband could potentially be deported back to Moldova.
Elizabeth told her sister Jenn the news, who was totally shocked, and also vented to Jenn about how she needed help from a babysitter or nanny but Andrei said he didn't trust anyone except family taking care of his child at their home.
Jenn suggested Elizabeth should just hire a nanny while she's working and not tell Andrei at all, but Elizabeth wanted to discuss the situation with Andrei first. Regardless, Elizabeth took down a potential nanny's phone number.
Andrei and Charlie later had another confrontation at one of Charlie's listings. Andrei attempted to destroy the kitchen -- which is what Chuck had apparently told him to do -- but Charlie said Andrei needed to run everything by him first.

Andrei swore at Charlie and stormed off, and Charlie accused him of being "a b-tch" and not cleaning up his own mess. Andrei said Charlie was jealous of the fact he was trying to get things done.
Andrei told the cameras he'd never be able to work for Charlie but he needed to work for the sake of getting his two-year Green Card renewed for 10 years.
Andrei then broke the news to Chuck about his potential deportation, telling Elizabeth's father, "If [I get deported], Libby is coming with me now and we're going back to Moldova."
Chuck realized this was a serious situation because losing Elizabeth and his granddaughter Eleanor would "crush" him.
Chuck therefore told Andrei they would work on a project by themselves, which would give Andrei a chance to prove himself to Charlie and Becky. Chuck said he was impressed by Andrei's performance and initiative on the jobsite so far.
"I'm really starting to get a bond with Chuck and I can feel he's warming up, and the future looks bright," Andrei said.

Elizabeth hoped Andrei and her siblings could be civil on the boat, and Elizabeth said she wasn't going to talk to Becky because Becky had insulted her husband on his first day of work by busting in on a property and calling him "a d-ck."
Chuck hoped this day would bring everyone together and result in a fresh start, but during the boat ride, Charlie announced that Andrei was allegedly taking advantage of everyone.

Elizabeth shouted that she wasn't okay with everyone "dogging on my husband."
Elizabeth and Andrei started to fight and then Becky jumped in and called Andrei "a manipulator," before getting in Elizabeth's face and calling her "two faced."
"How do you not see what's going on between your husband and dad?!" Becky shouted. "You have no f-cking clue!"
Elizabeth put her finger in front of Becky's face and yelled, "You don't talk to my husband that way! You don't f-cking talk to my husband that way!"
Jenn had to break up the two girls from getting physical, and Elizabeth called Becky "a jealous b-tch." Andrei accused Charlie and Becky of being "f-cking crazy," and then Becky called Andrei "a f-cking assh-le."
Elizabeth went after Becky again to hit her after the fight escalated to a point of no return. Elizabeth told the cameras this was "the last straw" and she "had enough."
Becky called Libby "a brat" and accused her of crying to Chuck so that Chuck would feel sorry for her.
Elizabeth then threw her drink on Becky, who in turn threw her drink right back on Elizabeth and nearly pushed Elizabeth off the boat.

Chuck said if the family business was going to cause so many problems, he was just going to get rid of it entirely.
Elizabeth said lines had been crossed and she wasn't sure whether her relationship with Becky could ever be repaired.

Andrei also posted an adorable video on Instagram Stories in early May showing himself tickling and kissing his daughter. Elizabeth filmed the video and could be heard giggling behind the camera.
