Larissa met Eric on Tinder and gushed to her Instagram followers about his good looks and sweet personality.
Colt and Larissa's divorce was finalized in April 2019 and she expressed joy over being free from that relationship, but then her romance with Eric appeared to take a nosedive.
Larissa announced she had split from Eric in September 2019 after eight months of dating.
Larissa insisted at the time there were no hard feelings, but Eric claimed he was shocked and blindsided by Larissa's announcement of their breakup on social media.
Eric had changed his Instagram bio to read, "Dumpedbyagirlon9/11? Thru a post? My mother saw 2 calltotell me about?"
Larissa also filed a police report against Eric in September 2019 citing harassment, according to The Blast.
"Larissa doesn't want to speak about it anymore because she wants Eric to go away and doesn't want to give him the fame he's thirsty for," a source told Us Weekly about the case.
"Eric gave out her number to other women, and they were calling and texting and harassing her nonstop, so she changed her number."

Larissa also told the magazine of her breakup, "I'm done with men and men trying to exploit me."

The season started out with Larissa living the single life and pursuing a Green Card on her own to stay in America, but she said she realized she was still in love with Eric.
"My feeling for Eric is above all my relationships and bigger than I have felt with Colt. I always was in love with Eric when we are dating, but I decide to break up with him because of all the kind of relationship problems, and I thought that he [didn't] admire me anymore," Larissa said in a confessional.
"But I miss being in a relationship with him because Eric isn't perfect but he always tried to help me out when we were together and he doesn't judge me for anything that [I've done] in my life."
After two months of not talking to Eric at all, Larissa asked her former flame to meet up with her at a restaurant so they could talk.
Eric confessed he "felt used" by Larissa, but she told her ex that she had blocked him because she still had feelings for him and wanted to try to move on. Eric, however, also said Larissa had spread some nasty rumors about him and drove him crazy.

In addition, Eric alleged Larissa had given his phone number out -- not to mention Larissa had even filed a police report against him.

"Because if Eric [decided] to do something [to me], I am safe."
Larissa apologized to Eric for filing the police report and explained she was just scared at the time. Eric said he didn't want to go back on the same path and have the same problems, but Larissa reminded her ex that their sex was "amazing."
Larissa said their relationship got a little tired and they essentially became friends and roommates living with each other towards the end. Eric agreed he and Larissa stopped having sex because they lost the spark and focused too much on their problems.
"When we were good, we were good... I just feel we should take things a lot more slowly... We need to communicate a lot better and not get so frustrated with each other," Eric told Larissa. "I just don't want to fight like we used to."
Eric claimed he just wanted to make Larissa happy, and so Larissa gushed to the cameras, "The heart wants what [it wants], so I am very hopeful that we can work. I hope we can leave all the problems in the past and everything will be happy."

Larissa's best friend Carmen didn't approve of Larissa's decision to take Eric back, so Carmen kicked her out of her house. As a result, Larissa decided to move into Eric's Las Vegas house and stay in his guest room.
Larissa came to find out Eric had badmouthed her to his family, friends and even strangers when they were broken up, but Eric apologized and said he acted out of pain and a broken heart.
Larissa therefore decided to forgive Eric and move forward with their revived romance. The pair worked on improving their relationship and communication, and Eric set out to prove to his girlfriend that he's not cheap.
Eric then agreed to "invest" in Larissa's plastic surgery transformation by providing the money upfront to pay for her breast augmentation and nose job.
The show's latest episode featured Eric being at Larissa's beck and call following her surgery and telling the cameras he didn't realize how much he loved and cared for Larissa until he saw her hurting and in pain.
So are Larissa and Eric's relationship still together or did the 90 Day Fiance couple call it quits after Larissa changed her look?
