Laura was a 51-year-old retired mom from Toronto, ON who resided in Eustis, FL, and Aladin was a 29-year-old personal trainer from Doha, Qatar, when they began filming the debut season of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way.
When viewers were introduced to Laura and Aladin in Episode 2 of the series, Laura revealed she was leaving Florida in 10 days to move to Qatar to be with her husband for good.
Laura claimed they had developed a really strong bond online, and after a year of talking, she flew to Qatar for the first time and met him in person.
After just three short days of spending time together, Aladin proposed marriage. Laura also claimed she and Aladin got married nine days after meeting.
However, the marriage wasn't official in Aladin's eyes because he wanted to have a traditional three-day wedding in Tunisia.

Laura also still had some insecurities because of their huge age difference, but she wanted to live with Aladin permanently.

Laura knew she'd have to trust Aladin if their relationship was going to work out long-term, and she maintained hope her disapproving son Liam would eventually come around.
Aladin said he missed Laura terribly and couldn't wait for her to join his life, but he told the cameras she had trust issues from her previous marriage.
Aladin revealed he and Laura argued about social media constantly, as she questioned every single new follower he had, so he would sometimes block her for a day or two until she calmed down.

Aladin didn't think their problems were going to disappear in Qatar, but he said Laura needed to "answer to" him since he was the man in their relationship.
Before Laura left, her son Liam insisted it was going to be a tough transition.
"You have a short temper and you're stubborn," Liam told his mom.
"The problem is you are the problem most of the time. You are brash, you're going to get yourself in trouble, and no one is going to be there to bail you out."
After two days of traveling, Laura finally arrived in Qatar, and Aladin had a bouquet of roses waiting for his love.

Aladin hugged Laura and gave her a little kiss although it was against the law in Qatar. He gushed about how he just couldn't help himself.
It had been six months since Aladin last saw Laura. He said she looked "a little bit different" and had "gained some weight," but he told the cameras that was okay.

Laura then moved into Aladin's place, and she clearly wasn't impressed. The kitchen didn't have a stove, and she said the bathroom had an odor of mothballs.
Aladin acknowledged Laura was going to live differently in Qatar than what she was used to in the United States.
That night, Laura hoped to take Aladin into "unknown territories" and teach him a few tricks she had up her sleeve in the bedroom.
Laura was excited to make love to Aladin, but she admitted he hadn't been successful in the past with pleasing and satisfying her. Laura needed her husband to meet all of her needs, but she was prepared to work on that.
Aladin said his first night with his wife after six months apart was "very nice," but Laura admitted to cameras "it was done in two minutes" and he wasn't "rocking [her] world" in the bedroom.
Laura therefore introduced a sex toy to Aladin in order to spice things up and make things interesting, but Aladin was not happy. In fact, he was totally offended, thinking he should be enough for Laura.
"What the f-ck?! F-ck you," Aladin said. "Are you for real? You know I will throw this one [away]. Why do you need this?"
He vented in a confessional, "I'm Tunisian. I am man. I can be enough for her."

Laura said Aladin's young age showed in their communication. When they attempted to talk about their sex life, Laura said her husband acted childish. She didn't appreciate how upset Aladin got at her at times.
The couple also fought about social media, resulting in two fights in 24 hours.
Laura also struggled with homesickness and pushed back on embracing the local culture, especially in terms of how women were forced to dress and be submissive to their husbands.
Aladin's boss even revealed to Laura that a man could marry up to four ladies legally in Qatar.
The men apparently don't even have to tell their wives if they have other wives.

"Maybe it's totally justifiable in Aladin's head that he can do this [and have multiple wives]. I want to really make sure he's the man that I thought he was," Laura said in a confessional, totally shocked.
Despite the obstacles, 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way has shown Laura and Aladin going through with their full three-day wedding ceremony in Tunisia.
Liam, however, put a big damper on Laura's excitement during the first two days of the wedding.
"At this point, I'm thinking she's out of her mind. I don't know how she expected this to go. Obviously I do have a lot of mixed emotions towards him, but it's very important for me to know what my mother is getting into," Liam told the cameras.
And when Liam and Aladin attempted to bond, things didn't exactly go as planned.
Liam said he didn't want Aladin to try to be his stepfather, but Aladin said he'd never be his father given they're only eight years apart in age. Aladin claimed he just wanted to be friends with Liam.

Aladin let Liam know, however, he wanted to have children with Laura, but Laura had apparently informed Liam that she didn't want to have another child. Liam said it would be too dangerous for Laura to get pregnant again.
Liam argued, "Once she has another child, she will stop paying attention to me... I can't trust you... She can't be having children. It's a bad idea. It's your responsibility to make sure she doesn't do it."
Liam said if the couple decided to have a child, he'd be done with the both of them.

Aladin cared about Liam because he's Laura's son, but he told the cameras that if Liam wanted to be cut throat with him, he wouldn't care about him.
Once Laura confronted Liam about his bad behavior and the pair talked things out, Liam apologized for being "toxic" and "rude" to both his mother and Aladin.

Liam was apparently afraid he'd stop receiving his mother's support and guidance if another baby was to enter the picture.
Liam admitted he didn't give the couple a chance and was zoning in on flaws instead of positivity, so he told Laura that he would grow up and just hope for the best for them.
Once Laura fixed things with Liam, she felt great to put her wedding dress on and marry Aladin on Day 3 of the big event. Laura called Aladin the man of her dreams and said Liam's support was the best gift she ever could have received.
Aladin was impressed and happy Liam chose to show up and walk his mother down the aisle.
Liam also told Aladin he would stop antagonizing him and go with the flow. Liam said sorry for being a jerk and complimented the big celebration, and Aladin said it was fine and he was so glad he chose to attend the wedding.
Laura had a renewed sense of hope for her future involving both of the men in her life.

"I know our love story doesn't make sense probably to a lot of people, but we know that we love each other," Laura said.
"I moved all the way across the world to be with Aladin, and love is a gamble. I just hope I hit the jackpot on this one. I don't know, we'll find out."
"I just want to make her happy, you know?" Aladin noted.
So are Aladin and Laura still together or did they break-up after their wedding? It's complicated!
In April 2018, Aladin changed his relationship status on Facebook to married, Starcasm reported, which was about a month before TLC announced it had ordered 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way.Laura also took Aladin's last name on her own social media accounts and revealed on July 9 the couple was celebrating their "one year anniversary of marriage by paper." She added, "Love you honey bunny" to her post.

The pair seemed happy living in Qatar together, but rumors began swirling in August 2019 that Laura and Aladin had split.
First Laura claimed Aladin was a "disgusting" cheater
After 90 Day Fiance: the Other Way's July 29 episode aired on TLC in which Laura was shown venting about how Aladin failed to please her in the bedroom and Aladin freaked out over the vibrator, Aladin deleted all photos of Laura from his Instagram account, according to The Hollywood Gossip.Speculation then occurred that Aladin may have dumped Laura because he was humiliated on television.
But according to screenshots circulating online of Instagram comments Laura made, Laura was making social-media postings claiming Aladin was allegedly cheating on her.

A follower asked Laura on Instagram in August, "Why did Aladin delete the pictures of you on his Insta?"

Laura apparently replied, "Watch the show and you will see... You don't know we are not together."
Laura also told another follower, "When he stop respecting me by cheating with other woman, that's how."
And when Aladin's brother Mohamed conducted an Instagram Live session, Laura commented multiple times to publicly bad-mouth Aladin.
"These women need to stop being so thirsty over 2 married men," Laura wrote. "Mouhammed is married. And so is Aladin."
Laura, who was clearly referring to her own marriage, then wrote, "Aladin you are as thirsty as your women! [You're] disgusting."
However, polygamy is legal in Qatar and men are apparently able to have up to four wives legally.

But then by August 19, Laura seemed to suggest all was well between Aladin and herself again.
"How cute were we the day we got married with our matching outfits! See what happens tonight! Are we still together? #90dayfiancetheotherway #90dayfiance. #matchingoutfits #lovemyhoneybunny," she wrote alongside a photo from her wedding day.
And a couple of days earlier, Laura shared a slideshow of selfies the couple had taken together.
"Weekend fun! #90dayfiancetheotherway #90dayfiance #tlc #imhungry," she captioned the images.
Then Laura said she was pregnant with Aladin's baby
On September 15, Laura suddenly took to Instagram to share some big news. (She calls him Aladdin although 90 Day Fiance identifies him as Aladin)."Ok thirsty women and you all say we are divorced ! We are not divorced we are together and love each other very very much !" Laura captioned a selfie of the pair at the beach in which they were both smiling big.

"Aladdin removed my pics because he got sick and tired of you all putting me down . I'm so sorry thirsty women but aladdin is my husband ... I love him he loves me so get over it already let us enjoy our life."

Laura also added at the end of her post, "Btw we have a muffin in the oven !"
Based on her posting, however, it was not immediately clear at the time if Laura was saying she was carrying the child herself or a surrogate was involved.
90 Day Fiance fans -- as well as Laura's 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way co-star Deavan Clegg and 90 Day Fiance alum Leida Margaretha -- therefore remained skeptical of the alleged pregnancy given Laura's prior televised admission that it would very difficult for her to have another child at her age.
That criticism continued when Laura conducted an Instagram Live session in late September in which some of Laura's followers directly accused her of lying about being pregnant.

One person said something along the lines of, "What person would lie about being pregnant?!"
Then Laura said she no longer pregnant, but she had not lied about it
In response, Laura told her Instagram Live audience that she was no longer pregnant, but she insisted she had never lied about being pregnant in the first place.According to the 51-year-old retiree, she had an ectopic pregnancy, which is a situation in which the fetus develops outside the uterus, typically in a fallopian tube.
"Well, let me tell you something, sweetheart, I didn't lie. I had a tubal pregnancy, okay? And guess what? I am not in menopause. I am not even approaching menopause. My functions are very much working downstairs, okay?" Laura told her fans in the video.

"For those people who suddenly live in my vag-y-gy, that they can give such bold statements blows my mind! Because I know exactly what happened to me, and I had my cousin also with me up in Canada when all this was going down."

Laura continued, "So, people who are such know-it-alls about even my menopause cycle and so forth, it's just insane! Folks, unless you are my doctor, I am pretty sure you don't know what's happening."
Laura added that she appreciates the people who have supported her and are advising her to just ignore trolls and skeptics.
In addition to the Instagram Live video, Laura also apparently explained she had an ectopic pregnancy during a lengthy direct-message exchange with one of her Instagram followers, who in turn shared screenshots of the exchange online publicly.
After the follower asked Laura to come clean about her alleged pregnancy lie, saying it's easier to admit her alleged pregnancy was a hoax rather than perpetuate it, Laura fired back.
"Believe me its no lie i swear on my sons life! I very much had an ectopic pregnancy... I was so sick and my dr when i was in canada last month told me the blood work came back and i was pregnant," Laura said, referencing her beloved adult son, Liam.
"It is 100 percent truth. I am no where near menopause yet. And it really upset me to read this. I am no longer with a baby and it crushed my world. Because i lost everything in life all at once it seemed."

And then Laura said she and Aladin have broken up!
During the direct-message exchange, Laura -- who visited her 90 Day Fiance co-star Evelin Villegas in Ecuador for a couple of weeks, according to their social-media postings -- also confirmed rumors that she and Aladin have broken up recently.Laura went on to say, "And i [couldn't] even tell aladdin about the baby because he has me blocked. I wanted aladdin to see the post. I [wanted] him to know we almost made a baby... so close! I wanted him to reach out to me."

"Nobody knows how horrible Aladdin has been to me... you know everything I own that had meaning and value is in Qatar and he will not even allow me to get all my [valuables] from our apartment."
"Police will not even assist me unless I have receipts. I asked [90 Day Fiance's production company] to help me also but they said no."

According to unconfirmed online rumors, Laura has allegedly been staying in Canada and Ecuador since she left Qatar because the Canadian citizen is not currently able to re-enter the United States.
(If true, it remains unclear how Laura would have then been able to attend the season's Tell-All reunion when it was filmed in New York late this summer).
Laura's ex-husband has allegedly said that since Laura is not an American citizen, she had been experiencing U.S. immigration issues before she went to Qatar to be with Aladin.
"She worked illegally in Florida and got preggo 22 years ago with Liam, that's how Liam is in Florida cause he was born there," Laura's ex-husband wrote in a Facebook posting in July, according to screenshots circulating online.
"She is Canadian she just got deported from the states when she just left to be with this guy."
In his alleged postings, Laura's ex-husband also admitted cheating on her but denied Laura's story that she catfished him and claimed she also has another child in Canada.

"I'm actually the ex husband and Liam is my son," he wrote. "She also has another son in Canada that she owes child support for and refuses to pay."

"He story of her cat fishing me is a lie and let me tell you she is a dead f-ck I cannot even believe she would bring up having sex with someone when she doesn't have a clue."
"I did cheat on her cause she is a mess in bed but she never found me on a website and trick me into cutting my hair... I don't even know where that story came from!!!"
Aladin also seems to have confirmed he and Laura are over
During a recent public Q&A session with his followers on Instagram, Aladin repeatedly avoided directly answering questions about whether the couple has broken-up -- however his responses appeared to hint at it."Regrets are for the things you did not do... and once I have lived an experience, I prefer to live another different one than repeat the same!" he replied to one follower who offered condolences for the couple's break-up and asked if Aladin would still "do this again."
"Everyone wants to know but the best is to see the last few episodes of the show... all I can say is that you can't see the full picture of a puzzle if you have missing pieces," he replied to another follower who asked what was the couple's "real story."

Aladin also reiterated his lack of regret in a reply to another follower that asked if he regretted dating and marrying a non-Muslim.
"I don't think it's good to regret the choices we make. It would put our focus on the past rather than the future," he wrote.
"In the end, whether a partner is of the same beliefs/culture or not is not the most important... it's whether they understand and respect you and your beliefs/culture."
However, Aladin did directly deny additional unconfirmed rumors that he has already gotten re-engaged to another woman since he and Laura allegedly split.
(ADVERTISEMENT)
And in the process, he also appeared to unintentionally disclose he and Laura split up either two months ago or two months after their Tunisian wedding ceremony.
"Are you engaged?" a follower asked.
"No engagement... who would get married and then get engaged 2 months later? Not me," Aladin replied, attaching three laughing emojis to the response.
Laura also hinted her marriage failed in an October 13 Instagram post.
Laura shared a photo of herself in her wedding gown and captioned it, "My amazing producer actually brought me a bottle [of wine] and moments later i accidentally dropped it and its was gone...i think it was a sign."
