However, Andrei said he needed a $100,000 loan to start his own business, and he thought Chuck -- a real estate business owner who already paid for the couple's lavish wedding in Moldova -- would be the perfect person to ask for the money.

"Well, the thing is, he helped all his kids," Andrei, 35, explained to Us Weekly of Chuck.

"He gave them capital to start working and they're all working over there sucking from the pie, so I'm just going to join in. Like, why not? If there's [a lot of] money, why not?"

Chuck said he couldn't believe Andrei had the "audacity" to ask him for such a huge amount of money.

Chuck immediately shot down Andrei's request for a loan, but Elizabeth's father suggested Andrei could work for him, learn the ropes and start from the ground up.

Chuck suggested that if Andrei followed through with his work and proved himself, then maybe he would consider giving the Moldova native a loan in the future to jumpstart his own business.

"I didn't say I'm working with them," Andrei said, choosing not to reveal whether he ended up working for Chuck.

"I said that I want money. I didn't say I'm going to work with them... All I need is [the] check, that's it. That's all I need."

As shown in the latest episode of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Andrei learned he must squash his beef with Elizabeth's brother Charlie and get along with all of Elizabeth's siblings in order to work for the family business.

"Chuck is a good businessman and he knows how to make his dollar, but he's a rough character, too. He's just complicated. There's a lot of things going on," Andrei told Us.

Andrei hinted, however, that he and Chuck are on good terms.

"My relationship with my father-in-law is okay. You'll get to see that on the season, it will develop," Andrei teased. "We've been through some rough times, but it's okay. I would not say that it's bad.""You will see a lot of changes," Elizabeth chimed in. "Actually, good and bad changes."

"Some of them were life-changing changes," Andrei added. "Big things [happen this season]. I think there's going to be a lot of events."

Andrei gushed that he and Elizabeth "may be" the next Fixer Upper stars Chip Gaines and Joanna Gaines.

"Things are booming over here in Florida... and the market is up," Andrei said, before Elizabeth mentioned that Chip and Joanna are their "inspiration."

When asked what motivated him to pursue his real estate license, Andrei revealed that Elizabeth had a lot to do with it.

"[Elizabeth] actually pressured me... [During quarantine], getting stuck with her, she was saying all the time, 'You need to get out. When this is over, you need to do some things,'" recalled Andrei, who took pride in being a stay-at-home dad to the couple's daughter Eleanor.

"And I was like, 'Okay, I'm going to get my real estate [license], there's a lot of money [in real estate]. Money motivates me.'"

Andrei said he therefore completed a real estate course online while at home during quarantine.

Elizabeth shared she's "happy" her husband wants a profession in "the same industry" that her family works in.

"He's able to see what I do and learn from it, and I can help him through it," Elizabeth said. "It seems like he's a little bit more motivated and more excited to get out and do stuff."

Andrei noted, however, the industry is "not so easy" to break into, especially since he has no experience. Andrei anticipated he must wait over a year to start working and getting jobs or clients.

"But luckily, we have [Elizabeth] and her dad," Andrei said, "if he's willing to help us. We'll see."

Elizabeth and Andrei met on a dating app in 2016 and got married in October 2017. Elizabeth gave birth to Eleanor in January 2019.

Prior to starring on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s sixth season, Elizabeth and Andrei also appeared on 90 Day Fiance's fifth season as well as 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s fourth edition.
