90 Day Fiance: The Other Way will premiere Monday, June 3 at 9PM ET/PT, and Paul from Louisville, KY, and Karine from Brazil will be updating fans on their romance.
Instead of following Americans and their foreign partners dating in the United States and attempting to marry within 90 days like the original 90 Day Fiance series, 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way will follow American citizens moving across the globe and living in foreign countries for the sake of love and their future spouses.
Paul will be shown living in Brazil with Karine given he couldn't afford Karine's visa to America and wasn't able to convince his mother to become a co-sponsor.
But until we dive into the details of where their relationship currently stands, let's go back to the beginning when this couple first met.
Paul and Karine met online and then Paul traveled to Brazil to meet his love interest in person.
The pair had trouble communicating and needed a language-translation phone app just to understand each other, but they still fell hard for each other -- and fast.
Paul and Karine first appeared on 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days, and they were shown getting married when last year's season of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days aired on TLC. (Their wedding actually took place in 2017).

After suffering through two devastating miscarriages -- one of which was documented on Season 2 of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days -- Paul and Karine announced they had a baby on the way in October 2018.
That same month, Paul revealed Karine was pregnant with a baby boy.

Paul initially didn't like Karine's name choice for their son, Pierre Martins Staehle, because the initials are "PMS" and might promote bullying later in the kid's life.
90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days showed the couple going through many ups and downs, including Karine threatening to divorce her husband shortly after saying "I do."
Things were also tense for the couple on the show's Tell All reunion special last year, as Paul admitted he wanted Karine's child to get a paternity DNA test once born.
Karine obviously wasn't happy her husband didn't seem to trust her.
So are Paul and Karine still together? Did their pregnancy bring them closer, as Karine had hoped?
Well, Karine and Paul appear to still be together, married and happy. They are also now parents!In February, Paul also revealed in an Instagram Stories posting that Karine had received a CR-1 spousal visa.

The pair welcomed their first child together in March, and since the baby is officially a U.S. citizen, it appears Paul and Karine are planning to move back to America together.

The couple's son was reportedly born weighing 6.9 pounds, and he measured 19.7 inches long.
"I'm very happy, very excited. I'm also very nervous and want to do everything the best that I can and do everything right," Paul told Us.
"Everyone keeps asking how it feels to be a dad. Anyone can make a baby, but going through the day-to-day process of being a father is going to be a new experience. I'm very happy, very honored and very privileged and I want to make sure I do my absolute best for Pierre."
Karine reportedly suffered from labor complications, but she said she recovered just fine.
The pair are not hiding their relationship status considering Paul's Instagram bio currently reads, "Married to @staehlekarine," along with an emoji of a couple and their child. His Instagram profile image is also a family photo.
And Karine's Instagram profile says "Casada com [Paul]" in her bio a the top, which means she's "married with" Paul.
The most recent picture on Paul's Instagram in late May shows Karine and himself dressed up for what appears to be a date night at Moai Restobar.
Paul's mother also visited the lovebirds in Brazil earlier this month. Paul posted a video on Instagram of his mother flying home on American Airlines earlier this month.
And back in April, Paul shared photos of Karine at a clinic in Brazil with their baby and gushed about how wonderful the doctors were.
