Like its first season, 90 Day Fiance's second season will continue to feature Americans each finding a love interest overseas and then facing the realities of an international romance.
In 90 Day Fiance's second season, which will air over the course of 10 one-hour episodes, six new couples will bring their international spouse-to-be to the United States and then use a special K-1 visa to potentially get married at the end of 90 days. If a pair does not follow through with marriage, the person from another country must return home.
"Some of these couples in the series -- including the first American women featured -- have only spent a combined few days together in person, but are so sure of their love, they are willing to embark on the challenges to become a couple," according to the network.
"Under the pressure of the visa's ticking clock, they must learn to live together, adjust to the culture shock of being in the US for the first time, and the need to navigate complicated personal relationships with future in-laws and close friends."
