Before leaving for the Philippines, he showed fans his typical workday as an interior designer at Studio Europa, located in San Diego. However, Big Ed moved to Arkansas in 2023.

Big Ed gained online popularity thanks to 90 Day Fiancé and used it to earn money via Cameo, YouTube, brand endorsements, meet and greet events, etc. However, he still has a full-time job, which is in real estate.

Big Ed was pushing Liz to try her hand at real estate when they moved to Arkansas. However, Liz thought Big Ed was more suited to the job than she was. She worked as a waitress manager when she met him for the first time in San Diego. Liz worked at a restaurant called Encontro where Big Ed used to spend most of his time after his split with Rose. Big Ed started chatting with Liz and spent hours talking to her. However, he didn’t like Liz working there and thought her friends were a bad influence.

He seems to have dissuaded her from taking up a partnership at Encontro when it was offered to her. Liz didn’t seem to have a job in Arkansas, but she worked at Encontro as a server after her split with Big Ed. She moved to Seattle with her new boyfriend, Jayson Zuniga, in 2024 and has been working as a bartender there. In December 2024, Liz revealed she’d already got her first promotion.

7 Angela Deem

90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? Season 8

Angela may have made reality TV her full-time career after tasting fame thanks to 90 Day Fiancé, but she did have a full-time job before 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days season 2. Angela was supporting a family of nine all by herself. It included her ailing mother, two daughters, and her six grandkids. Angela worked as a nursing assistant at a hospice in Georgia. She took care of terminally ill patients. Once she gained recognition from the show, Angela began making a living off Cameo and social media partnerships, etc. In 2024, Michael left Angela.

Angela’s reality TV career took a hit after Michael staged a disappearance and there are reports that she’s been fired from 90 Day Fiancé. While it remains to be seen if Angela returns to the show solo, she has been spending her time well by doing brand collaborations and meeting fans at karaoke shows, etc. She was recently a part of a Vanilla Ice concert where she was spotted dancing on stage with the rapper, according to Shabooty.

6 Natalie Mordovtseva

90 Day: The Last Resort

Natalie has an education in journalism and psychology. However, she took up modeling and acting as a career after excelling at beauty pageants. Natalie became a small-time TV actress in Kyiv, Ukraine. She knew she was out of Mike Youngquist’s league and kept breaking his heart again and again. Natalie may have married Mike because he was American and she wished to make it big in Hollywood. She was already in her mid-30s when she relocated to the U.S. and found it difficult to get work even after moving from Sequim to Florida.

Natalie’s modeling company CEO boyfriend, Josh Weinstein, was also not able to get her a job. She’s kept doing brand ads on Instagram and photoshoots for small-time local brands, but had nothing important to share until September 2024, when Natalie posted that she’d landed a role in a play called "Spike Heels.” This could be Natalie’s first step into entering the world of Hollywood where she’d always wanted to be.

5 Pedro Jimeno

The Family Chantel Season 5

Pedro has been working in the realty space for a while now. He gained confidence as he climbed the ladder at work, making friends out of colleagues and deciding Chantel Everett was not the one. Pedro still gets criticized on social media by Chantel’s supporters because they didn’t expect him to divorce her after settling down in the U.S. Chantel accused Pedro of cheating and her fans posted negative reviews on his business page.

However, Pedro’s dedication to his work shows when his real customers praise him for his hard work. Pedro recently shared a screenshot of a review left by a person named Jordy Ramos who gave Pedro a five-star rating. The person was elated that Pedro was able to find them their dream home. They called it a 10/10 experience, earning Pedro another feather in his cap.

David was suffering financially when he met Annie almost a decade ago in Bangkok. He didn’t even have the money to sponsor Annie’s K-1 visa or a home for her to live in when he came to the U.S. with her. David started earning an income from working as an English professor at a community college. However, his popularity soon took off through Pillow Talk, and Annie and David began earning through Cameo, conducting cooking classes for fans, selling Thai cooking oils, etc. However, in 2024, David announced a shocking career change.

David has followed in the footsteps of several other 90 Day Fiancé cast members and became a realtor. In August 2024, Annie and David confirmed that they were having a new baby.

In August 2024, Colt also made an exciting career change. Colt used to work as a software development engineer during his 90 Day Fiancé season 6 debut. He was laid off in April 2020. Since then, Colt has tried to make money on OnlyFans by selling his adult content. He seemed to have briefly worked for Uber since fans had noticed an Uber sticker on his car in an Instagram pic. Colt launched an entertainment media company in 2021 called ColtDotWin, but it failed to take off. He started earning by making personalized videos for fans on Cameo.

Considering Colt is not a popular cast member, his Cameo account may not have received as many requests as other cast members. Colt and Vanessa split earlier this year and, since then, Colt has taken an interest in gardening. He shared videos of him in his flower garden and also posted a picture of him driving a tractor. Colt seemed to be interested in becoming a farmer. It remains to be seen how it all pans out, since there are rumors Colt could lose a leg due to a severe infection.

2 Robert Springs

90 Day Fiancé Season 7

Robert and his wife Anny Francisco have been a part of the 90 Day Fiancé franchise since season 7 and are well-loved among fans.

1 Michael Ilesanmi

90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? Season 8

Little is known about Michael’s past life before he met Angela. He has always been good at keeping secrets but is also a hard-working man. 90 Day Fiancé's Michael supposedly worked as a bus admin before the show. When he met Angela, she asked him to stop working. Angela was afraid that Michael would meet someone new at work and cheat on her. It’s the same reason why she also stopped him from using social media. Michael agreed to most of Angela’s rules but did try to create an Instagram account behind her back.

90 Day Fiancé star Angela made him delete it. Michael wanted to use it to become an influencer. After coming to the U.S., Michael left Angela and found his freedom. He launched his Instagram page officially in May 2024. Michael has since started his influencer journey.
