If you were sitting on your couch back in 2017 watching Elizabeth Potthast and Andrei Castravet go head-to-head with the "Family Libby," you probably didn't think we’d still be talking about them nearly a decade later. But here we are in 2026, and the chaos of 90 Day Fiance season 5 is the gift that keeps on giving. Some of these couples became the blueprint for franchise success. Others? Well, they vanished into the digital ether or ended up in messy public divorces that kept the tabloids fed for years.
Honestly, season 5 was a turning point for the show. It was the moment the series shifted from a "documentary about visas" to a full-blown soap opera. You had Nicole and Azan’s "almost there, lazy" mountain climb and Molly’s "devil owls" house. It was peak reality TV. But once the cameras stopped rolling and the NDAs expired, the real lives of these people took some wild turns.
The Power Couple: Elizabeth and Andrei
Love them or hate them, Elizabeth and Andrei are the undisputed "winners" of this season in terms of longevity. They didn't just stay together; they built a mini-empire. As of early 2026, the couple is still going strong in Tampa, Florida. They’ve moved past the days of Andrei asking Libby’s dad, Chuck, for a "small loan" of $100,000.
They are now a family of four. Their daughter Eleanor is getting older, and their son Winston—born in late 2022—is a toddler now. There was a lot of drama recently on Happily Ever After? regarding a potential move to Moldova. Andrei was pushing for it hard after making some questionable $75,000 real estate investments back home.

Libby wasn't having it. She even threatened to leave him in Moldova and fly back to the States with the kids. But social media updates from January 2026 show them firmly planted in Florida. They seem to have realized that the Florida sunshine (and proximity to Chuck’s real estate connections) is better than a fresh start in Eastern Europe.
The Mystery of Nicole and Azan
If you're looking for 90 Day Fiance season 5 where are they now updates, Nicole Nafziger is the name that usually pops up first. Why? Because her story never really felt finished.
Basically, the "store" was a lie. We all knew it. The $6,000 Nicole gave Azan for a beauty shop in Morocco went... somewhere, but it definitely wasn't into inventory or a lease. After years of long-distance "are they or aren't they" drama, the two officially called it quits a while back.
Nicole has mostly stepped away from the spotlight. She's living in Florida, focusing on being a mom to her daughter, May. She occasionally gets heat for posting clickbait on her Instagram, but she’s stayed far away from the TLC cameras. Azan? He’s basically a ghost. Rumors have swirled for years that he was already married to a cousin or had a secret family in Morocco. While none of that was ever 100% verified on screen, he’s effectively scrubbed himself from the 90 Day universe.

Evelyn and David: A Shocking 2026 Update
Evelyn Cormier was only 18 when she married David Vázquez Zermeño. Everyone said they were too young. Everyone was right.
They divorced in 2021 after four years of marriage. Evelyn didn't hold back after the split, alleging the relationship was "mentally and emotionally abusive." David denied everything, but the bridge was burnt.
Fast forward to right now: Evelyn is remarried and expecting a baby. She tied the knot with a man named Nicholas in August 2024. In a weird "full circle" moment, Nicholas was actually the model in one of her music videos from years ago. She recently shared that she’s due to give birth in May 2026. She’s still doing the music thing, but her life looks completely different than the "small town New Hampshire" vibe we saw on season 5.
David, meanwhile, has become a bit of a world traveler. His Instagram is basically a photography portfolio of his trips to places like Taiwan and Cambodia. He seems content to leave the reality TV drama in the past.
Molly and Luis: The Shortest Marriage Ever
Molly Hopkins and Luis Mendez were doomed from the start. Luis didn't want to be a stepdad, and Molly’s daughter Olivia saw through him immediately.
Their marriage lasted about as long as a New Year's resolution. They divorced almost immediately after filming. Luis actually remarried just months after the divorce was finalized, which led many to believe he was just "fraudding" for a green card.
What happened to Molly?
Molly stayed in the TLC family for a long time, becoming a staple on Pillow Talk with her former best friend Cynthia. But the last couple of years have been rough.
- The Bestie Breakup: Molly and Cynthia had a massive falling out and ended their business partnership at LiviRae Lingerie.
- The Single Life: Molly appeared on The Single Life but hasn't found "the one" yet.
- Family Drama: She’s had a very public and painful rift with her daughter Olivia, involving legal issues that have played out in the news.
Josh and Aika: Still Together?
Josh and Aika are the "un-memorables" of season 5, but in the world of reality TV, being forgettable usually means your relationship is actually healthy.

They are still together in 2026. They live in Arizona and spent a good chunk of time traveling in a camper van. The big question during their season was whether Josh would reverse his vasectomy so Aika could have a baby. While they haven't shared news of a child, they seem incredibly happy just being a duo. They’ve mostly "gone poof" from social media recently, which usually happens when a couple decides they'd rather live their lives than perform them for followers.
David and Annie: The Season 5 "Bonus"
While they are technically part of the season 5 alumni, David and Annie Toborowsky are in a league of their own. They started with nothing—literally living in a firehouse and an apartment above a storage unit.
Today? They are arguably the most successful couple in the entire franchise. They have their own spin-offs, a cooking line, and a massive following. The biggest news? They just welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Minthira, in March 2025. For a couple that started with a dowry of water buffaloes and a lot of debt, they’ve done pretty well for themselves.
Actionable Insights for Fans
If you're looking to keep up with the season 5 cast without getting lost in the "clickbait" trap, here is how to do it:
- Follow the Kids: For couples like Elizabeth and Andrei, the most authentic updates come through family photos rather than the heavily edited TV specials.
- Check the "What Now" Specials: TLC frequently dumps 10-minute updates on Discovery+ that don't make it to the main channel.
- Watch "The Single Life" Season 5: While it's a different "season 5," alums from the original era are constantly cycled back into this show when they get divorced.
The legacy of season 5 is a mixed bag of genuine love and calculated fame-seeking. Whether it’s Evelyn’s new family or the ongoing saga of the Potthasts, these cast members have proven that the 90 days were just the beginning of a much longer, weirder journey.
