[90 Day Fiance Spoiler Warning: This article contains spoilers on the current status of 90 Day Fiance couple Alina and Steven's relationship.]

90 Day Fiance viewers were introduced to Steven, a 25-year-old from Salt Lake City, UT, and Alina, a 20-year-old from Novosibirsk, Russia, in the Season 3 premiere of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way on TLC.

Steven, a proud and devout Mormon, revealed how he's a conservative guy and his faith is "superbly important" to him.

"When I was 19 years old, I got called to go on a mission and so, for the next two years, I lived in Eastern Europe and I learned to speak Russian. I'm super grateful that I did learn it because now I have Alina," Steven shared on the show.


Steven apparently met Alina on a language-exchange website and recalled, "I started helping her English a little bit and she's helping me with Russian."

After exchanging phone numbers, the couple talked all the time, but Alina admitted she was nervous about Steven's religion because most people of the Russian-Orthodox would consider him to be part of "a cult."

"She didn't even want to meet up with me because she was afraid that I was going to sell her organs," Steven admitted with a laugh.

"I decided to invite her mom, invite my mom. Maybe I [could] convince her like, 'Hey, like, I'm not gonna harvest your organs, I'm not gonna kidnap you. Your mom will be there'... It made her comfortable and then she agreed."

Steven added how he and Alina felt an immediate attraction to each other and "instantly connected" when they finally met in person.


"Everything was so new and excited. I loved walking the streets with her and holding her hand, and it was just a magical first two weeks."

The couple proceeded to date for over a year, and Steven said he wanted to start the rest of his life with Alina.

And Alina, who said she's a virgin, seemed proud over the fact she and Steven were both "pure" and intended to have sex for the first time after marriage.

Steven initially planned to move to Russia so Alina could finish college, but the coronavirus pandemic drastically affected and changed their plans.


"The borders closed into Russia and so we had to look for another country where we could be together. We happened to find Turkey, which allows both Russians and Americans, so we're moving to Turkey!" Steven revealed.

Alina therefore had to take a year off from her schooling as a result, and her mother and girlfriends weren't pleased about everything her daughter was giving up for a man she barely knew or trusted.

Steven said he and Alina must marry right away in Turkey so he could apply for a spousal visa and they'd only have 90 days to do so, since both partners were traveling on Tourist Visas.

Steven imagined there wouldn't be any problems, but he was afraid to tell Alina that he hadn't lived up to the standards of his church.

Steven admitted he's not actually a virgin and has had sex before, so he feared the lie would make Alina doubt everything he's ever told her.

And Alina already had trust issues considering Steven had asked her if he could date other women a couple of weeks into their relationship and appeared to have several attractive female friends.

Steven also broke the news to Alina that he hoped to sleep in separate apartments once they moved to Turkey so he wouldn't be tempted to have sex with her and fail his faith again. Alina was also apparently going to get baptized in his church and he wanted to follow the rules.

"It sounds stupid," Alana said, adding that Steven should be able to control himself even though he said he found her really sexy. "I'm not going to leave my home and my country just to be alone."

Alina worried Steven would have too much freedom to meet and talk to other girls in that case, and so she asked her friend Masha to do her a favor since she was "sacrificing" her life for love.


Alina decided to test Steven's faithfulness and loyalty by asking Masha to message Steven on Instagram and flirt with him. Alina wanted to see if Steven would respond or maybe even hit on Masha given she's a beautiful Russian woman.

Alina also wanted to find out whether Steven would say he has a girlfriend.

Masha -- whom Steven had never seen or met -- agreed to help Alina out, even though she was a tad nervous Steven may take the bait.

Alina said she loved Steven but thought this was necessary in order to trust him.

"I hope it won't work," Alina noted. "If he doesn't pass this test, my heart will be broken. I don't know what I'm going to do after that."


Steven was then shown traveling to Turkey, and he hoped his sacrifice of leaving friends and family wouldn't be for nothing because he believed Alina is a "once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

So what happened between Steven and Alina? Is the 90 Day Fiance couple still together, and what's the latest on their relationship?

While the couple appears totally in love on Season 3 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way, they've already faced some adversity -- and it appears the couple just recently got into a big fight.

Alina hinted in mid-September that she's been working on her "self-esteem" and there may be trouble in paradise with Steven.

Alina took to Instagram over the weekend of September 10 and posted a selfie of herself in heavy, futuristic makeup in metallic and dark shades.

"Somebody with a V didn't really like this photo. But I think I look good here and it took me a really long time to do this makeup," Alina captioned the picture, which also featured the reality TV star rocking hoop earrings and a white blouse.

"Girls, don't let a man decide if you look beautiful or not," she added.


Alina also added a blowing-kiss emoticon and the following hashtags to her post: #90dayfiance #90dayfiancetheotherway #90pillowtalk #realitytv #realityshow #90dayfiancetellall #90dayfiancenews.

Alina's post seemingly suggests her Mormon boyfriend disapproved of and/or criticized her edgy, modern look. And they may have even broken up over it!

Many of Alina's followers pointed out how it seems Steven is in "trouble" and Alina has taken shots at her man.

While Steven may not have liked Alina's sexy look, other 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way stars weighed in and complimented the Russian brunette beauty.

"You look amazing girl!!! Always," Evelin Villegas commented on the post.

And Kenny Niedermeier wrote, "Take it from a Y, [fire emoji]."
