One of those three couples are Brandon, a 27-year-old pest-control technician who helps to run his parents' farm in Dinwiddie, VA, and Julia, a 26-year-old go-go club dancer from Krasnodar City, Russia, who were recently shown getting married on the Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance.
TLC announced Brandon and Julia's Happily-Ever-After? participation during a commercial that aired during Sunday night's finale broadcast of 90 Day Fiance's eighth season.
In the 90 Day Fiance promo, Brandon and Julia were shown putting their luggage into a car.
"We have to leave," Brandon says in the footage.
The promo also confirmed fellow Season 8 couple Jovi Dufren and Yara Zaya will be starring on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s upcoming sixth edition by showing Jovi rocking his new baby girl, Mylah.
In late March, the @fraudedmedia Instagram account reported Jovi and Yara would be one of the three mystery pairs starring on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s next season when it premieres on Sunday, April 25 at 8PM ET/PT on TLC.
As for the third unofficial couple, Melyza Zeta took to her Instagram Story on March 28 and spilled the beans that she and fiance Tim Clarkson will be starring on Season 6 as well.
"Thrilled to be back," Melyza, 28, captioned a photo of her filming in Medellin, Colombia that has since expired or been deleted.

In addition, the network had also previously identified Tiffany Franco and Ronald Smith as Season 6 cast members. Tiffany and Ronald first appeared on Season 1 of 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way.
In the 90 Day Fiance promo that aired Sunday night on TLC, Angela teased that she planned to do "something drastic," Tiffany admitted she may want a divorce from her blissfully-unaware husband Ronald, and Elizabeth was shown fighting with her sister on a boat over her family's poor treatment of her husband Andrei.
Beginning Sunday, April 25 at 11PM ET/PT -- after Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance wraps -- TLC will also air new episodes of 90 Day Fiance: Pillow Talk, the companion show which features 90 Day Fiance alums offering commentary on each week's Happily Ever After? episode as they watch it in bed.
Both 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? and 90 Day Fiance: Pillow Talk will also be available for viewing on discovery+, the new streaming service TLC's parent company launched in January.
Brandon and Julia dated for five months long-distance before Brandon proposed marriage during a trip to Iceland and subsequently applied for a K-1 visa.

Brandon and Julia had a "perfect" reunion in the United States, but Julia was upset to learn she'd have to sleep in a separate bedroom from Brandon at his parents' house while Brandon attempted to save some money for their future together.

"I don't want this. This is not the life [of] my dreams. Brandon say we need to stay here before we marry, but I say to him, 'No, Brandon, this is not going to work.' I need to leave," Julia vented in a confessional.
Brandon said he was prepared to choose Julia over the farm and his family, even his protective parents Betty and Ron, and so the couple set a wedding date for May 9, 2020.
However, Brandon and Julia ended up getting married only 60 days into the 90 days granted on Julia's K-1 visa through a rushed and intimate April 2020 ceremony as a coronavirus precaution.
Brandon read his vows in Russian and said, "How did I get so lucky to meet you? How did I get so lucky to call you my love? I feel like the happiest man in the world. From this moment on, you are my priority. I love you and I need you forever."
Julia cried tears of joy as Brandon read his vows, and she responded by promising to love him always with appreciation and respect. Julia vowed to always make protein cookies and be his "Russian angel."
Brandon and Julia appeared to remain a couple after their wedding but waited until March 2021 to enjoy their honeymoon in Miami, FL.
