[90 Day Fiance Spoilers: This report contains spoilers revealing if Jenny and Sumit have split up or if the 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way couple is still together or married now.]
Jenny, a 63-year-old from Palm Springs, CA, and Sumit, a 33-year-old from India, met on Facebook when Sumit catfished Jenny and pretended to be a buff bachelor, but once she discovered his true identity, she thought he was cute and still wanted to be with him.

Jenny decided to move to India to pursue love with Sumit, but she didn't know he was married to another woman! (And Sumit's strict and traditional parents didn't know about his affair with Jenny).
Sumit felt forced to enter an arranged marriage and said he barely knew the woman before tying the knot with her.

Once Sumit's family found out about Jenny, they got involved and turned the situation into an even messier one. Jenny's visa expired in the meantime and so she had to return to America before progressing her relationship with Sumit.
During the second season of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, Jenny and Sumit had been apart for five months and she was ready to give Sumit another chance and move back to India.
Jenny traveled over 20 hours to New Delhi with no car or money, but she expected to be happy and for Sumit to marry her.
Sumit said he was definitely divorcing his wife but it could take between two to five years to finalize the paperwork in India, and in the meantime, he wished his family would come around and stop caring about "what society thinks."
After lockdown in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, Jenny and Sumit met with a lawyer who specializes in marriage law so they could start the process of getting married legally.

A lawyer advised the couple to avoid a lengthy process and potential complications by getting married in a temple called "Arya Samaj Mandir." Jenny and Sumit were told they could explain their willingness to marry, provide documents and then tie the knot.
Jenny wouldn't have to convert to Hinduism, and the lawyer also said registration was post-marriage and so she and Sumit could get married at any time.
What Jenny heard was like a dream come true, that Sumit's parents would not be able to object to their nuptials -- but Sumit still didn't want to marry without his parents' approval. He didn't want to lose their love.
Sumit and Jenny therefore sat down with Sumit's parents for a conversation. It had been eight years since Jenny had a real conversation with her potential in-laws.
"There is no law above parents' law," Sumit's mother Sahna said, adding, "Marriage? Over our dead bodies."

Sahna shouted that her body would be in the ground if Sumit chose to marry Jenny.

Anil later complained, "This is all you could find?! You'll find other women a thousand times better -- a million times better."
Sahna admitted she was "ashamed" of Sumit's new romance, and then Sumit got down on his knees and begged her for her blessing. Sumit said he was "dying" on the inside and needed her to accept Jenny because his life without her would be "a disaster."
On Season 3 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, Jenny said she was living her best life with Sumit, "the love of [her] life."

Jenny shared how she had a 10-year Tourist Visa to live in India but she had to leave the country every six months. Due to the coronavirus lockdown, Jenny was able to extend her visa for several months.
"Sumit needs to marry me. It's sad, I wish the man I love could just make a decision and stop listening to everybody else... If this is what you say you want, then let's do it. Keep me here; let's stay together and be happy. This is what we both want," Jenny complained in a confessional.
Suddenly, Jenny learned her visa extension had been "closed" rather than extended and approved for more time. Jenny said she was going to have to leave India again, and she appeared very upset and nervous.
Jenny snapped that she was "ruining [her] life" for Sumit, having to travel back and forth between two different countries. She said she was tired of Sumit's empty promises.
"That's it!" Jenny yelled, throwing something on the floor on her way out of the house. "I am done with all of this crap! F-ck you, Sumit! I'll never listen to you again! I'm booking my flight and I'm leaving!"
Sumit assured Jenny that he loved her, but she was not going to give up her American citizenship.
Sumit continued to promise Jenny that he would marry her, but Jenny was tired of hearing that over and over again and insisted she wasn't going to stick around forever.
"I am living in India for a reason. I don't have any family here, it's only you. So if this isn't really what you want or you're too afraid, then you should just let me go," Jenny griped.
Jenny also didn't want to be responsible for destroying Sumit's family.
Sumit revealed his younger sister had passed away at eight-months-old from jaundice and so Sahna blamed him for taking another daughter away when Sumit divorced his Indian wife.
"Sometimes I feel like my mom is getting revenge, like she is mad at me because she's not happy and she lost the girl she had a connection with," Sumit explained in a confessional.

"So maybe this explains that's why my mom [doesn't] like Jenny, because she considers Jenny to be the one who helped me in getting a divorce."

Jenny said Sahna needed professional help because she clearly didn't know how to control her anger, and Sumit said they needed a family counselor or psychiatrist for her mother.
"And we need someone for us, because I feel like we are going through hell," Sumit said.
Jenny and Sumit later met with Sumit's parents and a family counselor, Ushma, to hopefully hash out their issues and alleviate some stress and tension in their relationship.
Sumit's parents made it clear that Jenny being almost double Sumit's age was the problem and they wished she would just move back to the United States and live with her adult daughter.
"You're not going to choose me. You're always going to go with what your parents want, and we'll never move past it," Jenny told Sumit at the session.
Sumit wanted his parents to understand his relationship and why he loved Jenny, adding how that he was not going to give up.
Ushma said Sumit's parents should let Sumit live his life as an adult the way he wants to, but Sahna complained, "Marriage can't happen like this until I can see how she will be an Indian daughter-in-law. I will teach her."
Sahna and Sumit's father Anil therefore offered to live with Jenny and Sumit in their place so Sahna could teach Jenny her ways and maybe turn her into a proper Indian bride and future wife.
Jenny's first reaction was "hell no" -- although she didn't say it out loud -- but Sahna wanted Jenny to learn some Indian traditions, at least.
Sumit said the situation made him "happy" and he viewed the opportunity as "a positive sign" and a real chance.

Jenny dubbed the scenario "crazy," but Sumit thought it was a test that they could pass together.
"I've seen the hurt and anger in her face, so it's hard to believe her. For all I know, she's thinking, '[Jenny] won't be able to handle it and she'll run back to America and I'll break them up... I won and I have my son back now,'" Jenny explained.
But after Jenny's Indian friend Deepali advised her to be optimistic and keep an open mind, Jenny came around to the idea of having Sumit's parents live with her for a few days.

Sumit hoped Jenny would learn from this experience. He said he wanted to get back to normal life in India, such as going to work and being more active. He desired a partner who would take care of him once he returned home from his job.
Sahna immediately started making demands and cleaning Jenny's house. As Jenny grew increasingly more angry, Sahna told Jenny that maintaining her household should be her full-time job.

Jenny thought the living arrangement was going to be a disaster, but she and Sahna actually got along when they cooked dinner together. Sahna was smiling and Jenny said Sumit's mother was "acting like a real human being and not a crazy person."
But during the meal, Sahna pointed out how society would make fun of Jenny's age and the fact she's dating such a younger man. Jenny felt insulted and determined in that moment Sumit's parents were never going to accept her.
"It's my dream that we can all live together," Sumit announced at the gathering. "And I will be really happy when both sides unite... Indians have strict culture and strict rules."
Jenny was surprised to hear that Sumit wanted to live such a traditional Indian life, but Jenny said she'd never live with Sumit's parents long-term and he better choose her over them.
Sumit's parents were pretty tough on Jenny. They even put her to work when she claimed to be feeling very ill.
But they ultimately promised they would try to have an amicable relationship with Jenny out of love for Sumit and would no longer object to the pair getting married.

Sumit, however, worried the stars were not aligned properly for Jenny and himself, and so the pair met with an astrologer to make sure the timing of their union would be perfect.
The astrologer told the couple to get married whenever they pleased and it would be "no big deal," and Jenny gushed about feeling so relieved to finally have approval from Sumit's parents as well as those associated with Sumit's cultural and spiritual beliefs.
But Sumit thought a wedding would take more time, and he admitted "cold feet" were settling in because he had expected the planning process to take much longer.
The astrologer told Jenny and Sumit to wait at least nine days to get married, and so Jenny wanted to say "I do" to Sumit on the tenth day. Sumit initially agreed but confessed he had gone through a lot in his last divorce and was scared.

Sumit feared Jenny might leave him to return to the United States or end their marriage. He said he was "shivering" and "shaking" over the idea of another divorce, and Jenny said she understood where he was coming from because his previous divorce had been "hell" for him.

Sumit broke down into tears during the conversation and admitted he never wanted to lose Jenny because she's the only person in his life.
"You couldn't get rid of me if you tried! I love you so much. I love you more than anything. Don't have any doubt in your mind about me... I will love you conditionally forever. I will never stop loving you, and I will never leave you," Jenny shared with Sumit.
Sumit said he did absolutely everything with Jenny -- including shopping and eating -- and so he apparently couldn't picture a day without her.
Jenny thought Sumit's fears and reservations were natural, but all she could do was promise him everything was going to be alright.
Jenny and Sumit, however, were advised by the astrologer to get married in court instead of within a temple.
Jenny and Sumit then learned Jenny must file an application for marriage registration and provide certain documents and then wait 30 days to be legally married. Jenny worried something may go wrong or Sumit's parents would change their minds in the meantime.

Jenny and Sumit immediately filled out and filed the application, beginning their marriage process, despite Sumit's obvious nerves and anxiety.
Sumit just didn't want Jenny to change after getting married, as his first wife had allegedly became controlling once they tied the knot. Sumit's friend, however, advised Sumit not to compare Jenny to his past -- an alleged "controlling and domineering" woman.
Sumit's friend told Sumit to get married because it's what he's always wanted with Jenny, whom he had been living with in India for a while.
Sumit then admitted, "I was not ready for the filing. When we were done with the meeting, I called the lawyer and I [asked] him to hold, like, don't file for the marriage," Sumit confessed. "[Jenny] don't know about it."

Sumit figured Jenny would be very mad and hurt upon finding out about what he had done in secret, and Sumit feared he was going to break her trust.

Did Jenny and Sumit split, continue dating or get married, and what's the latest on this 90 Day Fiance couple?
Jenny and Sumit are absolutely still in a relationship, and they appear to be very happy as a couple.
Sumit posted several selfies with Jenny on November 8 and captioned the photos, "I hope you enjoyed last night with us on #90daytheotherway. We are enjoying our nice time together. #90dayfiance #90daytheotherway #season3 on #tlc and #discoveryplus #keepwatching #keeploving #nobullying #loveall #staysafe #stayhealthy."
On October 27, someone asked Jenny in her Facebook comments, "Are you and Sumit, against getting mail, little gifts and packages from the USA?"
Jenny replied, "No but we have no PO Box," basically confirming she and Sumit are still living together in India.
Another follower asked Jenny, "Is it possible to get a P.O. Box over there?"
"Yes, we just need to go get one," Jenny responded. "We just never have time."

When a person said they wish Jenny and Sumit would just move to the United States, Jenny replied, "We love it here."
On October 17, Jenny also posted a picture of Sumit out at a restaurant.
A fan asked Jenny on her Facebook, "Jenny have you [guys] ever thought of coming to [the] States to live? Does he not want to?"
Jenny revealed the reason why she's not trying to move Sumit to America.
"[Too] expensive in U.S.," Jenny clarified, later adding that Sumit would prefer to stay in his native country.

Jenny also gushed about Sumit at the time and wrote, "Sumit is good but this show has made him the villain. He's really so good and such a sweet guy."
One person requested that Jenny never lets anyone break her and Sumit up, and Jenny replied, "Never."
Around that same time, Sumit posted an Instagram photo with Jenny at a bar and wrote, "Cheers to all!"
One week earlier, Jenny posted a video of Sumit eating a big pile of quesadillas and guacamole.
"This is how @sumitjenny looks to me after seeing so many monkeys all the time," Jenny captioned the video. "This is intended to be Funny not insulting at all. We both are laughing and thinking it's cute so if you feel insulted move on."
In late September, Jenny posted a video on Instagram of herself driving down an Indian road.

And around that same time, Sumit uploaded a sweet picture with Jenny and captioned it, "A relationship only works and [becomes] good when you listen to your heart. #love #listentoyourheart #believe #staypositive #forgiveness."
Jenny's Instagram profile also features Sumit, and she wrote in her bio, "Sumit is my Love."
On September 8, Sumit posted photos with Jenny when he was wearing an elephant hat and captioned them, "Jenny with Drunken elephant. #funtime #enjoylife #kingsize."
Jenny also posted a photo of herself appearing to pray to a Krishna statue in early September on Instagram.
When one of her followers joked that Krishna may show her the path to go home, Jenny commented, "I am home," along with a smiley-face emoticon.
There are many photos of the couple together on social media, whether they are happy at home, grabbing coffee, or going out on dates to gardens, beaches and restaurants.

On August 14, 2021, Sumit posted selfies with Jenny as well as pictures of them out shopping together, and he wrote, "Enjoy every moment of the life fully. No one knows the future. #enjoy #enjoylife #everymoment #behappy #keepsmiling #keepcalm #yourtimewillcome #loveall #thanksall #forlove #support #understanding #prayers and everything."
A couple of days earlier, he wrote to Jenny on Instagram, "If I know what love is, it is because of you."
As far as where the lovebirds see themselves in five years, Jenny joked with Us Weekly this past summer that she and Sumit will probably be sitting in the same spot on his couch in India -- but "hopefully" with wedding rings on their fingers.
"That's the plan," Sumit agreed. "Hopefully, that's the plan. We [have been] trying to get married since 2013. Until now we haven't married yet, but still, you can say the plan is the same."
Back in June, Jenny posted a photo with Sumit on Instagram when the couple was hanging out on their terrace. She added "love is love" in the caption, and earlier in the month, Jenny made it known she and her man "laugh at" the rumors out there about them.

Despite being sick and going through the coronavirus pandemic together, their love apparently stayed strong.
"Our love is way stronger than you think," Sumit wrote alongside a photo of the couple smiling on April 3.
He added the following hashtags to his post, "#Love #stronglove #fightforlove #lovequonquersall #loveislove #90dayfiance #90daytheotherway #tlc #tvshows #loveall #peace."
On an episode of 90 Day: Bares All hosted by Shaun Robinson earlier this year, Shaun asked why Jenny and Sumit wouldn't just tie the knot when it's clearly their easiest solution.
"Sumit doesn't seem to want to separate from his family, so [that's it]," Jenny shared with an angry look on her face.
Sumit remained silent as Jenny spoke and just nodded his head in agreement as he sat beside her.

"Are you satisfied with the relationship with Sumit, just not being married?" Shaun asked for clarification.
"No," Jenny confirmed.
Sumit apparently had no comment and seemed nervous and sweaty.
Going all the way back to late last year, Sumit posted splitscreen photos of Jenny and himself drinking tea.
"Humanity runs on coffee and chai, so keep drinking and enjoy life," Sumit captioned the image.
"What's your first wake up drink of the day? Mine is chai means tea not chai tea #goodmorning #iknowiamlate #tea #coffee #chaitea #ilovemytea #90dayfiance #90dayfiancetheotherway #season2 #tlc #tvshows #realitytv #realityshow #keepwatching #spreadlove #nojudgement #loveall."
If fans look at the photo carefully, a ring can be seen on Sumit's ring finger on his left hand.
Since Sumit wouldn't accept a ring from Jenny on 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way's second season before making their relationship official and exchanging vows, this could be an indication they are now married.
