90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days' finale and Part 1 of its Tell-All special featured Darcey Silva and Tom Brooks breaking up and then getting back together, Zied Hakimi proposing marriage to Rebecca Parrot, Avery Mills second guessing Omar Albakour's love for her, and an eye-opening interview with the mysterious Maria from Ukraine during Sunday night's broadcast on TLC.

Like 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days' first two seasons, the third season followed Americans -- who started online romantic relationships with overseas partners -- traveling overseas hoping to get engaged to someone they had never met in person with the intention of starting the K-1 Visa immigration process.

Along the way, they encountered challenges that included large age gaps, language barriers, cultural issues, and questionable pasts.

And Part 1 of the Tell-All special featured the following cast members gathering in New York City with host and mediator Shaun Robinson to provide updates on their relationships: Timothy Malcolm, 38, from Charlotte, NC; Darcey, 44, from Middletown, CT, and Tom, 39, from Nottingham, United Kingdom; Benjamin Taylor, 33, from Phoenix, AZ; Avery, 19, from Columbus, OH; Caesar Mack, 46, from Jacksonville, NC; Angela Deem, 53, from Hazlehurst, GA; and Rebecca, 47, from Canton, GA.

Tom was the only foreign partner to appear on the Tell-All special, as the following people called in through video chat: Jeniffer Tarazona, 25, from Bucaramanga, Colombia; Akinyi Obala, 25, from Nairobi, Kenya; Omar, 24, from Latakia, Syria; Michael Ilesanmi, 29, from Lagos, Nigeria; and Zied, 26, from Tunis, Tunisia.

Maria, 28, from Kiev, Ukraine, gave an interview during the finale but will not speak to Caesar at the Tell-All special until Part 2 airs a special three-hour episode Monday night at 8PM ET/PT on TLC. (Darcey's ex Jesse Meester will also make an appearance).

Below is what happened during the finale of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days and Part 1 of the Tell-All special for each couple:

DARCEY and TOM

Darcey returned to the United States after a "beautiful" and "amazing" trip to England.

Darcey acknowledged long-distance relationships are tough, but she was convinced Tom was The One for her, and so she said there was no way she was going to give up on her relationship.

Stacey's flight from Albania arrived shortly before Darcey's, so the twin sisters headed back to Connecticut together.

Darcey told Stacey in the car ride back Tom said he loved her and they were an exclusive couple. Darcey said, "We'll see where it goes."

Stacey hoped for the best for Darcey, but then Darcey said there was no reason to rush an engagement.

"You got engaged after two weeks," Darcey snapped at her sister.

After Stacey insisted she was still engaged and happy with her fiance Florian, Darcey pointed out a couple should really only be engaged for a year or a year-and-a-half "tops."

Darcey claimed to be okay with the fact Tom hadn't proposed marriage to her, but she seemed worried about her romance lasting since they'd have to make it work from different countries.

After a few weeks of being back home with her daughters and her family, Darcey was trying to adjust to life without Tom. When she was in England, she felt so loved. But now, Darcey admitted Tom was difficult to contact and she felt ignored.

In attempt to find out how Tom really felt about her and whether he loved her, Darcey FaceTimed with Tom.

Darcey said she hadn't heard much from Tom, who insisted he had just been very busy. Tom admitted the long-distance situation wasn't working, and Darcey said she wanted to talk more but it seemed like he didn't want to.

Tom told Darcey that she didn't respect him because she'd send "1500 text messages" when he's in a business meeting or call him at 4AM.

"I feel I can't give this love and time you want. It's just, like, what's the point? From my perspective and this juncture in my life, where I see it, I just prefer to be single and your friend," Tom told Darcey.

"I'm not looking for anyone else, but if you meet somebody who is better than me or he can give you more than I can give you, then I'd be happy for you, and you know that."

Darcey felt Tom was throwing their relationship away, and she didn't know why he wanted to make things work. Darcey's heart was hurting, and she didn't understand what she had done for Tom to fall out of love with her.

Darcey knew she couldn't change Tom's feelings, and she felt like she wasn't worth the effort for Tom.

"I saw myself marrying Tom one day. Dated [Jesse Meester] for two years and then it faded, and here we go again. I'm just going to keep going on with my life, and if someone else comes along that feels right, I'm going to move on with my life," Darcey said in a confessional.

Heading into Part 1 of the Tell-All special, Tom said his relationship with Darcey was "complicated" because he loved Darcey very much. He said he needed to come up with a plan for how their relationship could progress and advance.

Meanwhile, Jesse was also driving to the Tell-All, and he said it had been nice to be detached from Darcey. Jesse found it a relief to be in New York City without negativity and drama surrounding him.

Darcey said her romance with Tom "died out" a little bit once she returned to America and it was probably because Tom wasn't ready for a serious commitment. She also wasn't afraid to see Jesse again, saying there's no way she'd let him take her down.

Since Tom and Darcey were no longer together once filming ended, Shaun asked Tom why he was attending the Tell-All.

Tom replied that he wanted to support Darcey and see her again, but when asked whether Darcey was his girlfriend, he said, "We're together, and we're seeing if that's a possibility."

Darcey, however, definitely considered Tom to be her boyfriend.

Jesse said he was content and actually looking forward to speaking with Darcey at the Tell-All.

Tom suggested Darcey told him that he loved her a little too much, and Darcey said Tom expressed himself when he really felt it.

Tom's sister Emma was then welcomed into the conversation through video chat, and Darcey said, "She's so funny. I love her."

Emma noted Tom was wrapped up in a bit of a fantasy and she wished Tom and Darcey would take the time to get to know each other better. Emma said Darcey didn't ask Tom enough questions about himself, but Darcey insisted she and Tom had an amazing bond and friendship.

Tom and Darcey then revealed they didn't even know each other's favorite color.

"I know what triggers Darcey and what doesn't. I know what she likes and what she doesn't like," Tom argued. "I'm always trying to plan because if you want a life with someone and you want to share something with someone, I need to know what Darcey actually wants."

"She wants an engagement ring and for you to tell her that you love her all the time," Emma said.

"She doesn't want to get to know who you are, what you enjoy doing, what your interests are. I don't see that."

Shaun then pointed out Tom had been engaged twice before, and both times he had been left by the woman. This news totally shocked Darcey.

"Do you even know anything about him?!" Emma asked.

BENJAMIN and AKINYI

Benjamin had texted his family he was technically married, and he told Akinyi some people had been supportive while others didn't understand how he could make such a brash decision.

ADVERTISEMENT
Benjamin's family was apparently "shocked and confused" about marrying Akinyi, but he insisted he didn't regret it.

Akinyi accompanied Benjamin to the airport in Kenya, where they both said goodbye, and Benjamin admitted leaving his wife was going to be "really hard." Benjamin predicted it would take months to receive Akinyi's visa.

Benjamin and Akinyi expressed love for one another and hugged goodbye, and both individuals had tears in their eyes.

"It's hard to say goodbye. Benjamin is now my husband, so I love him. But I'm scared because I don't know when I'll see him again," Akinyi told the cameras.

But Benjamin assured Akinyi, "It's not goodbye -- it's until next time... I love you."

Benjamin gushed about how he had a great time with Akinyi in Kenya and no length of time is ever enough with the one you love.

Heading to Part 1 of the Tell-All, Benjamin said his family didn't speak to him for a couple of weeks after they discovered he had married Akinyi in Kenya.

"But she's going to become part of our family... I just want to live our life," Benjamin said in a confessional.

Akinyi admitted she thought Benjamin was going to be "smaller" physically when they met and she'd like to see him get back into shape.

Benjamin said he did not go against his religion by having sex with Akinyi because they're married under the eyes of God -- although not legally in the U.S.

REBECCA and ZIED

Rebecca was shown spending her final hours with Zied in the Sahara Desert. She didn't regret telling Zied that she was still technically married, but she feared she had undone weeks of their time together.

Rebecca told Zied that she hated fighting with him but she could tell he was such a good man.

"I thought about ending it once and for all, but... as a Muslim man, I consider her divorced. She signed the papers, she got divorced," Zied told the cameras.

Zied then had a little picnic with Rebecca in the sand, complete with candles, wine and chocolate. And in the bowl of chocolate happened to be a red box with an engagement ring inside.

"This is for you. For you marry me," Zied told Rebecca, as she started to cry. "You want to marry me? Yes?"

Rebecca nodded her head and kissed Zied, and he gushed, "I love you so much!" Rebecca called her man "perfect," even though their relationship had been a bit of a roller coaster.

Rebecca said it was the proposal every girl would dream of.

Zied then revealed to Rebecca he had taken about $200 U.S. dollars from her to buy the ring but he ended up borrowing the money from his sister and didn't need to use any of it.

Rebecca told the cameras she felt bad for ever saying anything negative about Zied because she thought it was so cute his intention all along was to pop the question with a beautiful ring.

"I cannot wait to get your visa done and get your ass to America and marry you!" Rebecca told her fiance.

"Our toughest days could absolutely still be ahead of us, but now that we're engaged, I've never been so certain about our relationship before."

A few weeks after Rebecca and Zied had met in person, it was time for Rebecca to get on a plane and head back to America. Rebecca was having a hard time leaving Zied, saying the three weeks she had spent with him changed her life completely.

Zied asked Rebecca to finish her divorce so she could be his on their way to the airport.

"She lied to me and hid things about her life, but I still love her and I am so, so much sad because I don't know next time I will see Rebecca," Zied said in a confessional.

Rebecca planned to file for the K-1 visa, but she said it was going to take six to eight months for that to happen. She feared, in the meantime, Zied would change his mind about moving or his family might talk him out of his relationship.

Zied, however, promised Rebecca that she would see his face for the rest of her life because he was crazy about her. Rebecca assured Zied that she was crazy about him too.

Rebecca said she'd miss every single thing about Zied -- including how romantic and passionate he was. She hoped they could get through the process or else everything they had gone through was for nothing.

Heading into Part 1 of the Tell-All, Rebecca said Zied was nervous about speaking English in front of people. She also worried bringing up old issues and baggage would affect her relationship going forward.

Rebecca told Shaun it was sweet and romantic Zied showed up at the airport wearing a T-shirt with her face on it, but Jeniffer said if Timothy had arrived wearing that, she'd think he was "a freak."

Rebecca later complained backstage about how Jeniffer had called Zied "a freak," and she seemed really mad.

ANGELA and MICHAEL

Angela was shown packing up her belongings to leave Nigeria, and Michael told his fiancee that he was missing her already.

Angela said her last few nights with Michael had been great and she finally trusted Michael enough to go through with his K-1 visa. Angela told the cameras it wasn't going to be easy to leave her love behind in the meantime.

Angela told Michael she wanted to have some land with him and raise a child together.

Angela knew, however, the biggest obstacle she and Michael would have is a baby. She worried Michael might leave her for another baby if she couldn't welcome a child with him.

Angela and Michael hugged goodbye at the airport, and Angela told Michael to stop lying, stop following women on social media and stop being "sneaky." Michael promised her that he'd be a good, loyal man.

Michael told the cameras that when Angela left him, he felt like he was losing half his body.

Angela joked about how "you've got to have some crazy with the love."

"I know he's The One for me, and hopefully the next time I see Michael, we'll be making our wedding plans," Angela gushed.

Heading into Part 1 of the Tell-All, Angela told the cameras she was going to do whatever possible to keep Michael and herself together -- but there was only so much she could do.

AVERY and OMAR

Avery had been back in the United States for a few weeks, and she said it was really hard being away from Omar. She said she woke up lonely some mornings.

Knowing Omar's travel visa was probably not going to be approved, Avery felt the need to share her bad news with Omar.

Avery FaceTimed with Omar and explained visas were being denied due to the travel ban from Syria to the United States.

"Realistically, you can't get a visa," Avery told Omar.

"What? Are you joking?" Omar asked. "Why I can't be in America?"

"The lawyer said he has worked on many travel-ban cases and none of them have been approved. We can apply for a waiver, but only less than five percent of people who get waivers get approved. I would say the soonest is three years," Avery explained to Omar.

Avery also said if they had any chance of Omar coming to the United States, she couldn't move to Syria because the only thing the government would acknowledge -- if they do acknowledge it -- is the fact the couple had to live apart from each other.

Avery started the process for Omar to come to the U.S., so she asked him, "Do you think you could be away from me for a few years and still want to be married to me?"

"I don't know," Omar replied.

"Wait," Avery noted.

"It's a tough situation for a long time," Omar said.

Avery dropped her phone and couldn't believe Omar had said something like that. It made her doubt how strong his love for her really was.

Avery was very stressed out and wondered what they should do.

"Listen, I give up about America," Omar said.

The couple wanted to be with each other, so they discussed the possibility of both moving to somewhere like Dubai.

"If we make that decision to move out of the country, we make that decision for good," Avery told her husband. "We're just giving up America altogether."

Avery worried about leaving her family because she knew it was going to hurt, and Omar acknowledged it was a difficult choice for her to make.

Avery said choosing whether to leave her family would be the hardest decision she'd ever have to make, but Omar promised her they'd figure it out together and he loved her.

"It breaks my heart because there is no good option for me and Omar right now. I am scared we will never be together," Avery told the cameras.

Heading into Part 1 of the Tell-All special, Avery noted people probably had misconceptions of Omar because he's Muslim. Avery said if anyone was going to speak negatively about her husband, she would definitely stand up and speak up for him.

Avery cried about how the travel ban was making her choose between the family she already had and the family she wanted to create with Omar. Avery shed tears about how her situation was really hard, and her mother Teri really seemed to feel for her.

"Just keep in mind I love her," Omar said.

Teri said while Omar intended to protect Avery with all of his heart, there were certain situations he wouldn't be able to control or prevent from happening. Teri wanted to keep her family together.

"If he doesn't have a way to get here, we'll go to a nearby country where it's safe," Avery said.

Tom warned Avery living in a foreign country was going to be much harder than her situation now since she'd be alone and must adjust to a different culture and language.

The cast worried Avery was going to be in trouble, but Teri was supportive and said she couldn't stop her daughter from moving as long as she planned to move somewhere safe.

Jeniffer commended Teri on having great strength as a loving mother, saying that it took courage for her to even consider letting her daughter go and follow her heart.

CAESAR and MARIA

Caesar returned to the United States three weeks earlier, and he said Maria broke his heart. However, Caesar told the cameras he and Maria were back together and talking about booking a trip to Cuba.

Caesar planned to work hard and save money so he could see Maria, whom he said was the love of his life. Caesar said the love he had for Maria would never end because they were meant to be together.

Viewers were then introduced to Maria, a 28-year-old from Kiev, Ukraine.

The pretty blonde said she joined a dating app about eight years ago and many women in the Ukraine use this app to find American men, who apparently reach their high standards when local men do not.

Maria said Caesar had texted her on the app and she thought his profile looked "nice." She appreciated the way Caesar talked to her, but Maria admitted she was not physically attracted to him.

In fact, Maria said she's interested in tall, blonde men with blue eyes. However, Maria said she liked how Caesar treated her. For example, he sent her flowers.

"During this time, of course I talk to other guys because it's normal. I cannot, like, stop for only one man. When I don't have a ring on my hand, I am free," Maria told the cameras.

Maria said she loved to go out with her friends and go shopping for fun.

Maria told the cameras she loved to travel and had just returned from Dubai but she had never been to America. Maria said going to the United States, specifically Beverly Hills, was her dream since she was about five years old.

Maria was then shown going out to lunch with her girlfriends, and they asked whether she had found a love in Dubai. She said, "I'll tell you later."

Maria told her friends she had checked into her flight to Cancun, Mexico a few days before she was set to board the plane but her reservation was canceled because he had insufficient funds. Maria's girlfriends seemed shocked, and then she explained that Caesar was rude to her -- as if it was her fault -- and so she broke up with him.

"He doesn't deserve your forgiveness... He didn't send you a huge amount of money," Maria's pal told her.

ADVERTISEMENT
Maria told the cameras she wasn't accepting money from other men and she couldn't recall how much money Caesar had sent her over the years because she's "not accountant."

When asked whether she and Caesar were back together, Maria insisted they were "still friends."

"Caesar, if he want to have girl like me, he should understand that he needs to work and do something -- go and make more money," Maria said in a confessional.

Maria's friends told her that Caesar was not willing to do the things that she deserved, and then Maria said in a confessional she would not reveal whether she ever planned to meet up with Caesar.

"It's a secret," she said.

During Part 1 of the Tell-All, Caesar was nervous for Maria to call into the show through video chat. He figured things would be tense because while they had been planning to meet in Cuba, Maria said she was "just tired of everything" and "got fed up."

Maria apparently broke things off with Caesar again, and so he said "this was the endgame today." Caesar wanted to have long-term plans with Maria, like welcoming a family, so he intended to share his feelings and emotions with her at the Tell-All.

Caesar also hoped Maria would tell him how she felt in return.

Avery told Caesar during the Tell-All that he deserved better, especially since he had never even met Maria in-person before.

The cast agreed Maria didn't really love Caesar because she had yet to meet him.

"I think it was a scam from Day 1," Timothy said.

"I think she just wants his money," Jeniffer pointed out.

ADVERTISEMENT
Caesar confessed he probably should have cut Maria loose earlier but he was unable to do that since his emotions were so wrapped up in her.

In terms of having a sexual relationship, Caesar admitted he wanted to take things slow with Maria at first "but then it would've been hammer time."

TIMOTHY and JENIFFER

Timothy said heading into Part 1 of the Tell-All his romance with Jeniffer had "slowed down." Timothy admitted their schedules had been crazy, as they would talk for a couple hours one night but then go a couple of days without talking.

Timothy said Jeniffer was still wearing the ring he had given her, but every time she got mad at him, she apparently took him off and threatened him with it.

During Part 1 of the Tell-All special, Jeniffer admitted Timothy was not her type because she usually goes for athletic men.

Jeniffer called Timothy "delicate" and said Timothy really takes care of himself, which is different from what she's used to.

Timothy said he hadn't seen Jeniffer since he returned to America from his trip to Colombia, so they had yet to be intimate.

Jeniffer noted although it wasn't normal Timothy didn't want to have sex with her, she appreciated how he was respectful and behaved like a gentleman.
