This is what happened to Steven and Alina after 90 Day Fiance The Other Way Season 3
Steven Johnston and Alina Shaimardanova became known after appearing on the third season of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way. After the end of their season, they have continued to navigate their complex journey together. Despite the challenges they faced on screen, the couple has stayed together and embarked on new adventures.
After their season ended, Steven and Alina settled in Turkey, where they initially met and got married. However, their life in Turkey was filled with uncertainty, particularly regarding Alina’s residency status. Alina was unsure if she could secure another temporary residency permit in Turkey, which led the couple to travel extensively for six months while waiting for Alina’s American spousal visa to be approved. Unfortunately, their visa application process was fraught with delays and complications, leaving them in a state of limbo.
During this period of uncertainty, Steven and Alina decided to explore other options for a more stable life. They eventually chose to relocate to China, where they have been living for the past three months. Alina recently broke her social media silence with an Instagram post, revealing the details of their journey and the challenges they faced over the past year. She described their life as a “wild journey” and expressed relief at finally finding some stability.
The couple’s move to China was not without its difficulties. They had to live separately for four months to gather the necessary documents for their immigration and visa applications. Despite the separation, Alina expressed her happiness and relief at finally obtaining her Chinese residency permit. This new status allows her to stay in China long-term with Steven, providing them with a sense of security and stability that had been missing from their lives.
In her Instagram post, Alina shared that while the wait for her American spousal visa continues, she is content with their current situation in China. The couple is now focused on building a normal life together, free from the stress and uncertainty that plagued their previous attempts to settle in Turkey and the United States.
