The pair found fame when they starred on Season 7 of 90 Day Fiance, which featured Mike and Natalie getting to know each other better during one of Mike's trips to Ukraine.
The couple discovered they have some major differences. Natalie, for instance, is a religious vegetarian and Mike is an atheist meat-eater who believes in aliens. Natalie also pushed to have children right away when Mike said he wasn't financially or emotionally ready yet.
The couple's biggest fight went down when Natalie gave her engagement ring back to Mike because she said she wasn't in love anymore -- and Mike said he felt confused and "lost."
On 90 Day Fiance's Season 7 Tell-All special, Natalie also accused Mike of cheating on her by with his alleged best female friend, Sarah. Mike, however, insisted the incident was totally innocent and he never lied about it.
The couple's romance continued on Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance, when Natalie arrived to America and had to adjust to Mike's "cold" home and her "basic housewife" role.
Natalie's American dream wasn't playing out like she had hoped, and she sometimes felt hurt and ignored by Mike, which caused her to lash out at him.
Natalie once called Mike overweight and a "low-class drunk," and Mike in turn felt constantly disrespected. He even told Natalie at one point that her beauty was "ugly" if she didn't act beautiful on the inside.

However, love was at the root of the couple's relationship, and so Mike eventually decided to give Natalie her engagement ring back.
Natalie seemed to be on Cloud 9 -- until Mike had a sudden and unexpected change of heart on their wedding day.

Mike explained to Natalie that he just came down with a serious case of cold feet and still loved her and wanted her to stay in the United States, and so Natalie decided to forgive him.
In the end, Mike chose to go through with the wedding so he wouldn't have to lose Natalie altogether.
On Part 1 of 90 Day Fiance's Tell-All event, Mike and Natalie arrived in separate cars and Mike confessed their relationship was stressful at times and he was "used to the silent treatment." The couple barely looked at or spoke to one another.
Natalie wasn't wearing her engagement ring to the Tell-All but she claimed she had left the ring at home so it wouldn't get stolen -- which more than half of the Season 8 cast didn't believe.
Mike admitted he felt "horrible" and like "a piece of sh-t" for initially canceling their wedding and he had no excuse.

"Natalie thought I went off and cheated the night before. And that was weighing on my head," Mike revealed.

Mike's mother Trish then joined the conversation and accused Natalie of trying to change Mike's life and being too jealous. Trish called Mike's romance "sketchy" and "a mess."
Trish apparently had such serious reservations about Natalie and Mike getting married that she had asked Mike's neighbor Tamara to stand up at the wedding and reject to the couple's union.
Despite his "mixed feelings" on the subject, Mike said he loved both his mother and his wife and he's never choose one over the other.
Mike and Natalie also weren't in a good place following Part 2 of the Tell-All, which featured Sarah telling Shaun she had never hooked up with Mike and Natalie had called her an American "whore."
On the sixth-season premiere of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Mike and Natalie had been married for six months by the time cameras starting rolling, and Mike apparently wasn't wearing his wedding ring, which made Natalie question if he was taking their union seriously.

"It's not about the ring; it's about love and marriage, you know?" Mike vented in a confessional, saying he couldn't wear his ring to work because of the hard labor.
"Sometimes I do get frustrated with Natalie. I made a major commitment that you could possibly do with anyone you love by getting married. Sometimes I often think it may not be enough for her."
Mike ultimately agreed to go ring shopping, and Natalie said she loved, admired and respected her husband for caring about her feelings. She couldn't wait to travel with Mike and do a real honeymoon after the coronavirus pandemic.
Natalie also hoped to meet some of Mike's friends since she hadn't yet.
Mike admitted to Natalie she can come across as "harsh" sometimes and can't just attack people, which prompted Natalie to argue during Mike's birthday celebration, "Maybe they shouldn't send naked pictures to you, then I will be polite."
Natalie claimed a girl from Nevada had sent Mike a picture of her breasts.

Once the pair reunited in Sequim, Mike refused to apologize because he said Natalie kept bringing up "old stupid sh-t" that didn't matter and it pissed him off. Mike said Natalie really needed to work on letting go of the past, and so Natalie apologized for bringing up a sore subject on his birthday.

Mike joked that Natalie was like "a sour patch kid" in that she's sour and then sweet in the end. He was glad Natalie "recognized her faults" from the previous night and would attempt to stop picking fights.
Mike knew, however, he had another hill to climb considering Natalie and his mother Trish were about to reunite and spend some time together in Oklahoma, which turned out to be a pretty tense time.
After Trish pushed Natalie's buttons in Oklahoma, it appears Natalie is going to stand her ground and defend herself -- which may put Mike in an uncomfortable position.
So are Natalie and Mike still married and together now or has the 90 Day Fiance couple broken up and divorced?
According to online records, Mike and Natalie tied the knot in Clallam County, Washington on April 15, 2020, In Touch Weekly reported.But the couple's marriage apparently didn't last a full year.
Mike's Uncle Beau Lawrence, 51, told In Touch in late March 2021 that Mike and Natalie recently separated.
Not only is there no trace of Natalie on Mike's Instagram account and vice versa, but Beau told the magazine, "[Natalie] has not been home for a couple of months now. She can stay away for all I care."

When asked if he believes Mike and Natalie's relationship is over for good, Beau replied, "I'm really hoping so. I pray to God, yes."

In the original biographical information she posted on her voting page, Natalie hinted at her breakup with Mike by listing herself as a cast member of 90 Day: The Single Life, the new 90 Day Fiance spinoff which features single or divorced former 90 Day Fiance stars searching for love and navigating post-relationship life.
However, it appears Natalie has since deleted 90 Day: The Single Life mention.
Given the first season of 90 Day: The Single Life is already currently airing on Discovery's new discovery+ streaming service, it appears Natalie may have signed on to an as-of-yet unannounced second season of the new spinoff.
Natalie describes herself as "an actress and reality TV star" in her bio blurb and also lists the other shows she has appeared on.
In addition to 90 Day Fiance's seventh and eighth seasons, Natalie also listed 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?.
"I wrote a book about life in [the] U.S.," Natalie also wrote in the bio -- an apparent reference to her previously announced plans to write a tell-all book.

Uncle Beau then drove home the fact Mike is currently single after his split from Natalie in early May 2021.
"Mikey and I are having fun again now that I'm single too. That's right, well there's more fish in the sea," Beau told In Touch.
The guys apparently enjoyed a boys' night out in which they had a barbecue, drank beers and sat by a bonfire.
"Live life to the fullest. Everyday is a great day to live. #life#saturdayvibes #bondfire#goodfood#friendsandfamily#90daysfiance," Mike captioned two video clips on Saturday, one of which showed his new husky dog that Natalie has also posed with on her own Instagram account.

In June 2020, Natalie reportedly posted a photo of herself cuddling up to Mike by the water and she wrote, "This is how we spend our time together #90dayfiance #natalie90dayfiance #nataliemordovtseva #mike90dayfiance #mikeyoungquist #love #couple #couplegoals."
But in August 2020, Natalie reportedly wiped her Instagram clean, and around that same time, Mike deleted an account and created a new one.
Natalie's Instagram mainly just shows modeling photos and selfies now.

Viewers speculated in February 2021 Mike and Natalie may have reconciled because they were both in Los Angeles at the same time, but it appears they were just in California to film 90 Day Fiance's Season 8 Tell-All special.
