90 Day Fiance couple Mike Youngquist and Natalie Mordovtseva just had Natalie's K-1 visa approved on Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance, so did the couple get married and live happily-ever-after or have Mike and Natalie split since she moved to America to be with him?

Mike Youngquist was a 35-year-old from Sequim, Washington, and Natalie Mordovtseva was a 35-year-old from Kyiv, Ukraine, when they starred on Season 7 of 90 Day Fiance.

The pair met through a mutual friend and began texting back and forth, which resulted in a friendship and then Mike booking a flight to Ukraine so they could meet in person and help each other through their divorces.

Although they had only spent two weeks together in Ukraine, Mike felt they were meant to be, and so he returned to the United States and began the K-1 visa process.

Mike thought the paperwork would go quick, but after six months of waiting and not seeing her, Mike decided to visit Natalie in the Ukraine to see her again.

Mike said the trip had many highs and lows, including how Natalie was trying to push her faith on Mike.

Natalie is a religious vegetarian, for example, while Mike is an atheist meat-eater who believes in aliens. Natalie also wanted to welcome children right away, but Mike was struggling financially and wanted to wait a while.

Mike wanted Natalie to accept him for who he is, and the biggest fight sparked once Natalie claimed she wasn't in love with Mike yet due to their differences. Natalie even gave Mike her engagement ring back, which made Mike feel "lost."

Mike said he and Natalie didn't speak much after the trip and Natalie's behavior was "unacceptable."

The couple were totally at odds during 90 Day Fiance Season 7's Tell-All special, with Natalie accusing Mike of betraying her trust by having spent the night over a female friend's place. Mike, however, insisted he was totally innocent.

Natalie and Mike's relationship was therefore "on hold" at the time due to Natalie's lack of trust in her partner.

"I'm out of the relationship," Natalie said, adding that communicating with Mike was like talking to a wall at times.

When the Tell-All host Shaun Robinson flat out asked Natalie if she loved Mike, Natalie responded with, "I'm cautious."

"I don't want to go through another divorce. And I told him a million times that. And there was a moment he hurt me a lot, and Michael knows what was the moment. I'm not going to discuss it here," Natalie explained.

"I have feelings for Michael but I love myself more."

Natalie said she loved Mike when they began the K-1 process, suggesting she had fallen out of love with Mike. Natalie said things happened that forced her to push Mike away.

Mike revealed Natalie's K-1 visa was still processing, but she was afraid to move to the United States if their fighting and bickering was just going to continue.

Natalie said if the incident regarding Mike's female friend never happened, she would love him with all her heart.

Shaun then asked Mike if he'd be willing to return to Ukraine and work things out with Natalie and possibly win her back.

"Yeah," Mike responded.

And Natalie explained on the Tell-All, "That's why I push him, because I don't understand what to expect from him. I cannot move to America for a man who can do stuff like he did. And I didn't even tell you all."

At the time, Mike planned on traveling to Ukraine soon in order to fix things with Natalie and hopefully salvage their relationship because he wanted to be happily married with children in the near future.


In the Season 8 premiere of 90 Day Fiance, Mike said he'd never cheat on Natalie and after doing a lot of talking, the pair were trying to work on things.

Natalie's K-1 visa had yet to be approved, however, and Mike said Natalie's outbursts made him take a step back and be cautious.

Suddenly, Natalie revealed to Mike over videochat her visa had been approved, and Mike said he felt "happy and excited" but wasn't prepared for such news so early. Mike admitted he was experiencing good and bad emotions at the same time because he and Natalie had issues.

Natalie said the visa only lasted a certain time and so she needed to travel to the United States within 20 days.

"That's very, very fast," Mike noted, before Natalie said she had already looked into flights.

Mike explained the couple had a lot to talk about and figure out -- including their communication, anger and jealousy. Mike said he wasn't ready to get married but this was the "Hail Mary" and the pair at least needed to try.

When Mike videochatted with Natalie after getting his haircut, Natalie expressed her concern over living in a house with Beau once she arrived in the United States.

Mike said he planned to help Beau find a place of his own but he wasn't about to kick a family member out of his house without warning. Mike told the cameras Natalie needed to be "more open and accepting," especially of his own family.

Mike promised Natalie they'd be alone at one point, and he hoped they could discover themselves in the 90 days and truly fall in love.

Natalie was only four days from hopping on a plane, and Mike promised to be nice to Natalie and vice versa.

Although Mike and Natalie remained optimistic about their future together, things don't look good for the couple, according to a trailer recently released by TLC for the rest of the show's eighth season.


"Let's let our journey begin," Mike says as he toasts champagne with Natalie.

But then Mike and Natalie quickly start fighting, which results in Natalie refusing to unpack her suitcases.

Later in the preview, Mike apologizes to Natalie, who cries, "You're sending me home!"

"I don't know what to say," Mike replies.

Natalie then says in a confessional, "I'm honestly scared, but I have to leave the country because I'm illegal here."

After Mike apologizes for the second time, Natalie vents, "Michael is a monster!"

It then appears Mike's mom drives Natalie away, presumably to the airport, with Natalie sobbing and breaking down in the passenger seat.


So did Mike and Natalie get married and are they still together -- or has the 90 Day Fiance couple broken up?

After Season 7 of 90 Day Fiance wrapped, Mike and Natalie were spotted together in the United States several times in January 2020.

At one of the sightings, Mike was spotted waiting at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport with flowers in his hands and a camera crew nearby.

The next day, the Instagram account Fraudedbytlc posted a photo of Mike and Natalie walking side-by-side at Seattle's historic Pike Place Market as a camera crew filmed them, presumably for the upcoming eighth season of 90 Day Fiance.

If Natalie traveled to the United States on a K-1 visa in January, she would have only 90 days to marry him in order to stay in the country permanently.

And Natalie confirmed her relationship status at the time when she shared May 24 on Instagram, "We Get Married!" (But the wedding must have taken place beforehand per the 90 day-requirement).

A few days later, Natalie captioned another photo of the couple, "Love is very meaningful for us."

On June 22, 2020, Natalie posted a photo with Mike and wrote, "Amazing #dinner with #lovely husband! thanks for #90dayfiance #love #faith #nataliemordovtseva #mikeyoungquist #couplegoals."

Two days later, Natalie captioned a funny photo of the pair driving, "#driving like crazy with my #husband #mikeyoungquist #nataliemordovtseva #natalie90dayfiance #90dayfiance."

And on June 25, Natalie wrote alongside a selfie of the couple by the water, "This is how we spend our time together #90dayfiance #natalie90dayfiance #nataliemordovtseva #mike90dayfiance #mikeyoungquist #love #couple #couplegoals."

Natalie's Instagram account has since been deactivated or deleted.
