Brandon, a 27-year-old pest-control technician who helps to run his parents' farm in Dinwiddie, VA, fell in love with Julia, a 26-year-old go-go club dancer from Krasnodar City, Russia, at first sight and then flew to Russia to meet her.

The pair continued to date for five months long-distance, and then Brandon proposed marriage during a trip to Iceland and applied for a K-1 visa once they were engaged. Their story aired on Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance.

While the couple was thrilled to be reunited, they hit some bumps in the road, such as Brandon and Julia being forced to sleep in separate bedrooms at Brandon's parents' house.

Julia also didn't like how controlling Brandon's mother Betty seemed to be and the fact she had been pushing for Julia to take birth control.

Once at the farm in Virginia, Julia realized this wasn't her American dream and she hated doing farm chores -- such as feeding the pigs -- and waking up early every morning.

Julia threatened to return to Russia multiple times, but she and Brandon still proceeded to plan their wedding amid the start of the coronavirus pandemic.

Brandon worried about rushing into a marriage in April 2020, especially because Julia already threatened him with divorce during a fight, but he said he wasn't ready to give up on his relationship with Julia.

The couple therefore moved up their wedding day to April 26, 2020, just to be safe, and Brandon and Julia exchanged beautiful, heartfelt vows in each other's languages.

On 90 Day Fiance's Season 8 Tell-All special, Julia revealed there were "more rules" in Brandon's parents' home than ever before and she and Betty were butting heads.

Julia said she wanted to leave the farm and be "the boss" in her own life. She also mentioned how she wouldn't mind having a child if she were to get pregnant by accident, but Brandon insisted she wasn't even ready to take care of a dog.

On the sixth-season premiere of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?, Brandon's father Ron said Brandon had become "submissive" to Julia's every "whim," such as visiting Las Vegas. Ron joked that his son was "whipped" by Julia.

After Brandon was offered a new higher-paying job, Julia suggested to Brandon they should move to Las Vegas, but Brandon laughed and said that wouldn't be realistic for them.

Julia accused Brandon of not living up to his promises and was concerned Brandon may want "the farm life" forever.

The pair ultimately agreed on moving to a smaller city of Richmond, VA, and Julia was happy to compromise.

Julia said she wanted to start working and making money by maybe doing a designer job, but Brandon worried her broken English might hold her back from many job positions.

Julia yelled at Brandon for not supporting her and for trying to break her dreams, but Brandon said he was just trying to be realistic and reasonable.

"Julia views my realistic view on things as pessimistic, but sometimes I think she's also just too much of a dreamer and she may want to bump down her expectations," Brandon said.

Julia's first interview for her Green Card then came around, and Brandon hoped everything would go smoothly because he didn't really want to move to Russia is Julia was forced to go back home.

"I think I give more [energy] to the relationship... [Brandon] gives more money, but I changed my life for him. If I'm not approved, then I go to Russia and Brandon not go with me, I guess. This is broken. We divorce," Julia complained.

Cameras weren't allowed in the immigration office for Julia's interview, but after hours, Brandon revealed, "She did not approve for the Green Card."

Julia, however, insisted everything was going to be okay.


"There is apparently a brand new requisite for the affidavit of support," Brandon explained. "[There is] a brand new document that might be needed, and even the officer doesn't know what it is yet and what the details are."

Brandon said Julia wasn't necessarily denied her Green Card and the pair would either receive an approval letter or a request for more information in the mail in about two weeks.

Julia also later learned it would be a lot more difficult to become a wedding or event planner as she had imagined.

After speaking with an industry professional, Julia realized she must do research, gain experience, work on her English, and get to know people in the Richmond, VA community.

Brandon introduced Julia to his friend Melanie so she could have a connection, but the meeting didn't go well and Julia became extremely jealous in thinking Melanie was trying to flirt with her husband.

Brandon said Julia has "a strange jealous streak" and it was "a real problem," and Julia didn't deny having that issue.

Brandon didn't want to have to neglect his friends in Virginia, but Julia asked him to listen to her more and try to understand her better. She wanted Brandon by her side at all times considering she had moved to a foreign country for him.

Julia later received a letter in the mail from the USCIS. It was Julia's work visa so that she could get a job and start making money in the United States.

Brandon's parents suggested Brandon and Julia should have a real wedding with a beautiful dress and family and friends in attendance as a celebration.

Julia, however, didn't seem interested. Julia explained how she and Brandon were already married and had their special day, and she said the only thing that mattered was them being together as a couple.

Julia accused Brandon's parents of trying to make the couple take a step back in their relationship by distracting them from moving out, but Betty and Ron assured her that wasn't the case.


Brandon told Julia she had come up with "a conspiracy theory."

Betty said she and Ron would do their best to respect Brandon and Julia's wishes not to have a second wedding. The couple, however, agreed to a toast at Ron's upcoming birthday party.

"I don't trust your mother. I feel she'll do something wrong to make me angry," Julia complained to Brandon.

Once Brandon and Julia arrived to Ron's party, there were birthday decorations everywhere as well as "Just Married" decor. Brandon and Julia were displeased since they never wanted a post-wedding party or celebration to begin with.

Betty even surprised Brandon and Julia with a beautiful cake and an appearance from their wedding officiant, but it all just made Brandon and Julia angry.

Julia figured Betty had created this whole party to exert her control and show how she can do whatever she wants.

"Who wouldn't want a party and a cake? But that's not the point. I am tired of being treated like a child. I just feel personally disrespected and hurt, and it's not okay," Brandon complained.

Betty couldn't believe Brandon was upset over a party for their family and friends, and she called her son "rude, uncaring and so ungrateful."

Betty added, "Brandon never would have done that if Julia wasn't there. I am really starting to think [Julia] is trying to turn him against us, or against me."

Brandon told his mother that she wasn't respecting his boundaries as a married man, and Julia told the cameras that she was very proud of her husband for standing up to his mom.

With that being said, Julia took Brandon's hand and told Betty that they were going to leave the party early.

Ron and Betty thought they had just done something nice for their son and daughter-in-law and the pair behaved very rudely by leaving the party prematurely. Betty told Brandon and Julia they had done nothing wrong and had only loved Julia like a daughter.

Betty said she wanted Julia and Brandon to have a place of their own but hoped, in some small way, the couple would want to take over the farm. Ron also called Brandon "unprepared" to pay bills, including $1,200 for rent somewhere.

Ron believed Brandon and Julia were not grateful and living on their own was going to be "an eye-opener" for the both of them. Ron told his child not to look to him for help if he ended up struggling on his own, and Brandon said that was just fine.


So did Brandon and Julia last? Did the 90 Day Fiance couple break up or are they still together?

Brandon and Julia definitely appear to still be a happy couple.

Julia is currently in Russia and led some people to believe she left Brandon and they broke up, but a fan asked Julia on June 23 if she'll be coming back to America and Julia replied, "Of course."

Meanwhile, Brandon posted a photo of his dog looking out a window with him.

"We are waiting," Brandon captioned the image, seemingly referring to Julia's return flight to the United States.

On June 10, Brandon posted a video of himself and Julia talking about the K-1 visa process, and on June 9, Brandon took Julia to her first American baseball game.

Just one day earlier, Brandon also uploaded a funny video about Julia wanting pizza all the time and not eating the healthiest foods.

There is a lot of social-media evidence that Brandon and Julia haven't split since filming the Tell-All special.

Brandon wished his mother Betty a happy birthday on June 1 and posted a selfie that featured Julia in it.

On May 25, Brandon lashed out at trolls in defense of his wife, writing, "People please stop telling my wife to go back to Ukraine. She is from Russia.... So say go back to Russia. Or say... You go Russia #90dayfiance #Brandonandjulia #90dayfiancehappilyeverafter."

Brandon took to Instagram on May 20 and uploaded a sweet photo of Julia and himself embracing each other outdoors.

"We have spent so much time together but it just never feels like enough," Brandon captioned the image.

On May 17, Julia uploaded a funny video on her Instagram of Brandon and herself dancing.

Brandon and Julia apparently took a trip to New York in early May. Brandon posted photos of the couple on a boat and near the Statue of Liberty.

"Enjoying time with my wife. I sure will miss her when she gets her green card #90dayfiance #90dayfiancehappilyeverafter #Brandonandjulia," Brandon joked in his caption.

And Julia gushed about how thoughtful Brandon is considering he had purchased a bag for her that she fell in love with in a store but didn't want to spend too much money on.

Julia also captioned her own New York photos, "Just love life and grateful for everything I have. #90dayfiance#90dayfiancehappilyeverafter #Brandonandjulia #model#newyork #maxim #america #russia."

In late April, Julia posted two photos of the couple and shared, "Today is our first anniversary! in Russia, each anniversary has a name. 1 year - chintz (calico) wedding."

On April 21, Brandon posted a photo of himself giving Julia a piggyback ride and captioned it, "Happy wife - Happy life."

And Julia shared similar photos on her own Instagram account on the same day. She wrote alongside them, "Everyone asks, did I have friends in America? here is my best friend. #90dayfiance #brandonandjulia #90dayfiancehappilyeverafter."

And Brandon and Julia recently took a trip to Miami, FL, together! Julia revealed on Instagram this vacation served as their honeymoon. Coronavirus probably delayed the pair's honeymoon.

On March 8, Brandon uploaded an image of Julia and himself with their arms around each other and wrote alongside it, "Happy International Women's Day," along with multiple flower emojis.

Earlier in the month, Brandon posted a photo standing next to someone in a grey sweatshirt and captioned it, "Hey Julia... The bus is coming."

And Julia posted two photos of herself in a wedding gown around the same time to defend Brandon in light of the fact he had been unenthusiastic and seemingly bored while wedding dress shopping with his fiancee.

"Bad omens of a wedding. I do not believe in these signs. do you know how many of them? lots of. the whole world must be divorced, since all superstitions cannot be observed. Brandon didn't want to go to the store, but I insisted," Julia wrote.

Brandon also posted two selfies with Julia, one of which featured Julia kissing him on the cheek, in late February.

Brandon captioned one picture of Julia and himself posing in a hotel room, "I'm just waiting on Sunday. #90dayfiance #brandonandjulia #beautiful."

On February 12, Brandon also posted a video on Instagram of Julia kissing him on one cheek while his dog licked his other cheek.

"Love who loves you back. Happy Valentine's day guys. #90dayfiance #Brandonandjulia," Brandon captioned the video.

Around the same time, Julia posted a picture of Brandon hugging her on the beach.

"I want to congratulate everyone on the upcoming Valentine's day and wish to find a person next to whom you will not need anyone else. #90dayfiance #Brandonandjulia," Julia wrote alongside the image.

Pictures of the couple go back for months, and Julia also conducted a Q&A with her followers on Instagram Stories earlier this year and confirmed she enjoys living in the United States.

"Everything is pretty nice," Julia said of her current life. "It's pretty in my life. I've never had, like, an easy life," Julia said. "I all the time chose a hard life."

Julia said her English "is much better than before," probably because she's around English-speaking people all the time.

"I try to learn everything but it's so hard for me," Julia added.

And when a fan asked Julia how she deals with her "parents-in-law," Julia responded, "I love my parents a lot because my parents want what is best for me."

"If I could choose other parents I would never choose other parents because my parents are the best and I love them a lot," she added.

Julia also shared how she really likes people in the United States because "everyone smiles and everyone tries to help."

"You never ask for help but people try. This is so cool," she shared.

When asked whether she likes Russia or America better, Julia said there are some things she likes better in Russia and other things she likes better in the United States.

She noted the countries are just "different." For example, Julia said she cannot drive yet in America while she has her license back in Russia.
