Mike was convinced he had met his dream girl in the Ukraine, so he filed for a K-1 visa.

While waiting for the visa to be approved, Mike visited Natalie in Ukraine again and realized they actually didn't have much in common. The pair actually argued more than they got along.

Natalie is a religious vegetarian, for example, while Mike is an atheist meat-eater who believes in aliens. Natalie also wanted to welcome children right away, but Mike was struggling financially and wanted to wait a while.

Mike wanted Natalie to accept him for who he is, and the biggest fight sparked once Natalie claimed she wasn't in love with Mike yet due to their differences. Natalie even gave Mike her engagement ring back, which made Mike feel "lost."

Mike said he and Natalie didn't speak much after the trip and Natalie's behavior was "unacceptable."

And things only got worse from there. On 90 Day Fiance's Season 7 Tell-All special, Natalie accused Mike of cheating on her by spending the night with an alleged female friend. Mike, however, insisted the incident was totally innocent and he never lied about it.

Natalie said she was "out of the relationship" at the time due to her lack of trust in Mike, and she admitted she'd be "cautious" with her heart going forward because she didn't want to go through another divorce.

In the Season 8 premiere of 90 Day Fiance, Natalie's K-1 visa was approved and Mike wasn't expecting things to go that quickly.

Mike felt a little nervous and apprehensive about Natalie moving to America for him considering they had a lot of problems to work through -- including their communication and shared anger as well as Natalie's jealousy.

Mike said he wasn't ready to get married yet but this was the "Hail Mary" they needed to try and see if they could truly fall in love again.

When the couple reunited in the United States, Mike treated Natalie to a nice dinner and hotel stay since he had paid off most of his debt, and Natalie loved being spoiled.

But stepping into Mike's home gave Natalie a sense of fear and discomfort.

Natalie said the house felt cold and lonely, and Mike told the cameras, "If Natalie ends up not liking the town or just the rural living, it's obviously going to put a strain on the relationship for us."

Mike predicted Natalie was going to get stressed out, especially when he returned to work as a branch manager at a construction-supplies company and she'd be alone.

"He wasn't prepared for me at all. I'm not really okay with it... I have no idea how I'll get him to understand that," Natalie complained when she said there was no food for her to eat in the house.

After seeing Mike's daily life and some of his hobbies -- such as shooting off fireworks -- Natalie said her man seemed like a different person. She also accused Mike of not being a good listener or completely trustworthy yet.

Natalie later realized Mike's job was "crazy" and she wished they could move somewhere else together. She was also stuck doing "basic housewives work."

Mike compromised to eating Natalie's cooking and taking every other week off from eating meat, and so these decisions made Natalie feel better and more respected.

Mike said Natalie needed to listen to him more and be more open-minded. He said it was necessary to blend their beliefs, values and culture because he had no intention of changing everything about himself for a woman.

Mike didn't think one person doing all the compromising is a true partnership.

Natalie took her time in unpacking her belongings, but she wanted to plan the wedding so her mother would be able to attend.

"I would like Michael to give me the ring back, because it represents his strong feelings for me," Natalie said.

"But I don't know if Michael will be able to talk about marriage [in] this small amount of time. I don't even know, will we have wedding? Won't we have wedding? I don't know. I feel like it's his choice."

Natalie eventually searched for her engagement ring in Mike's house.

"I would like to have security in the relationship. I choose him; I came here for him. But he wants to show me that he's mad at me. I don't know," Natalie said.

After Mike returned from a hard day of work, Natalie was shown cooking Mike dinner and calling him "stubborn" because he was drinking a beer at the table.

Natalie said, "When you lose 10 kilos, we can talk," and Mike said Natalie often said things that were hurtful and their relationship was a bit of a battle.

Natalie felt she and Mike no longer respected one another.

"That's how I felt when you gave me the ring back. It was very disrespectful," Mike noted.

Mike said he didn't want to play games with Natalie, who felt Mike was holding her behavior in Ukraine against her. Natalie said she was very emotional in Ukraine and didn't want to pay for her mistakes.

Natalie said she felt like she was living "low class," and she admitted in a confessional she often provoked Mike when she was in pain because she wanted him to feel how she was feeling.

"You are a low-class drunk man," Natalie said, adding that she was afraid of Mike.

Mike asked Natalie what made her think she was above everyone else, and he was clearly angry she was putting herself up on a pedestal. Mike said he wasn't ready to give Natalie the ring back based on her behavior, but Natalie felt disrespected and alone.

"I don't like how he [treats] me. It's not okay. It's not happy life, it's a disaster," Natalie cried in a confessional. "I feel like I'm going home soon."

With 66 days to go on Natalie's K-1 visa, things were a bit calmer in Mike's household.

"I think if I'm more flexible with Mike and be more soft with him in woman ways, he would be more pleased and he wouldn't be that hard on me," Natalie told the cameras.

Natalie admitted she overreacted when she had called Mike "a low class drunk" and more, and she insisted that she was happy to be with him. Natalie, however, asked Mike to try to understand her as well because she had left everything behind for him.

Mike promised Natalie that he wasn't there to hurt her and asked his girlfriend to have more patience going forward.

"Sometimes I'm angry with him and sometimes I want to run away, but I don't want to live with anger for 90 days. I realize I have two choices: either I am married or I am right. I prefer to be married," Natalie said with a laugh.

Natalie wanted marriage and children with Mike, and she was tired of feeling so unsure and insecure in her relationship. She did take some responsibility for their relationship falling apart given she had given Mike back her ring.

Mike's mother Trish ended up pushing Mike and Natalie to set a wedding date.

"I feel like I found the magic button to Mike's heart -- Trish. Because if I'm good with Trish, everything works for me in the best way," Natalie shared with a laugh.

The next day, Natalie and Mike settled on April 3 because she thought that represented the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Her last wedding was on the 22nd of the month, and so Natalie wanted to avoid any bad luck.

Mike knew there was a lot more to do than just pick a date,.

Natalie determined it was okay not to get married in the church because Mike had never been baptized. Natalie said she was fine with a simple wedding, and Trish suggested the pair could get married in the yard surrounded by flowers.

Natalie appeared overjoyed to share her wedding date with her mother over the phone, and she kissed and hugged Mike with excitement.

Mike said he was "working on" returning Natalie's engagement ring but he was in no rush.

With 58 days to wed, Natalie said Mike stopped planning their wedding once his mother left and seemed to be pushing things off. Natalie told the cameras she and Mike needed to talk about these things because she didn't have much time left on her K-1 visa.

Mike said he wanted to get to know Natalie better before marrying her, including her interests and hobbies, and spend some quality time with her.

Mike said Natalie had an "on and off switch" and she seemed to love him and then hate him.

Natalie finally unpacked her clothes, but she didn't feel like she and Mike were on the same page with planning a wedding.

"He's not responding. I have this thought maybe he doesn't want to at all. Maybe he doesn't want it," Natalie said.

Natalie told Mike that they didn't have plates or a wedding dress or anything, and so she asked him to sit down and start planning their big day together.

"I'm not really ready to start planning. I think we have other things to work on. I think we have to work on other things before planning a wedding 100 percent," Mike told Natalie.

Mike felt a lot of pressure to tie the knot, and while he said he loved her, he just couldn't pull the trigger because marriage is a huge step. Mike didn't want to rush into anything.

"When I try to express my feelings, she takes offense to it," Mike said.

Mike agreed to a small ceremony, but Natalie said she needed a budget and to plan the guest list. Natalie said there were a lot of details to take care of even if they decided on a small wedding.

Natalie began fearing she wasn't going to have a wedding at all and that Mike would leave her.

Given half of the 90 days on Natalie's K-1 visa were up and time was running out, Natalie asked Mike to see a therapist to help their communication.

Mike was reluctant to pay for a counselor when he and Natalie should just be able to talk to each other, but he eventually came around so he and Natalie could discuss their differences, mainly because he didn't feel 100 percent ready to get married.

At therapy, Natalie said she felt like Mike ignored her emotions and feelings as she was trying to adjust to a brand new country. Mike, on the other hand, said he was putting all of his energy into making her feel comfortable and so he was unhappy on the inside.

Natalie thanked Mike for all of the effort he had put forth, and then Mike asked Natalie, "Are we still in love?"

"It's difficult for me a lot," Natalie replied.

"We're not in love right now. You often ask me why I don't want to talk about marriage or a wedding right now... and it's because we're not in love," Mike explained.

Natalie said Mike's words were shocking and unexpected and she wished she had never heard it. Natalie felt horrible that Mike didn't love her, and she told Mike, "You give me pain."

Mike told Natalie that she gave him pain as well and the problem was clearly that the couple didn't love each other anymore. Mike didn't know how to move forward from there, and he questioned whether they should just throw in the towel.

Mike said his dream was to get married, have kids and have a happy family, but he was no longer certain all of that was going to be with Natalie.

And based on a trailer showing what's to come on 90 Day Fiance's eighth season, things don't look good for the couple.

Mike is shown apologizing to Natalie, who cries, "You're sending me home!"

"I don't know what to say," Mike replies.

Natalie then says in a confessional, "I'm honestly scared, but I have to leave the country because I'm illegal here."

After Mike apologizes for the second time, Natalie vents, "Michael is a monster!"

It then appears Mike's mom drives Natalie away, presumably to the airport, with Natalie sobbing and breaking down in the passenger seat.


So did Mike and Natalie break up or is the 90 Day Fiance couple still together now?

On Natalie's Instagram in late January 2021, one of her followers commented on a photo claiming to know where Mike had hidden her engagement ring. When Natalie asked "where," the person replied that it was put on her hand in the first half of 2020.

Natalie didn't deny that was the case and only replied with a crying-laughing emoticon.

After Season 7 of 90 Day Fiance wrapped, Mike and Natalie were spotted together in the United States several times in January 2020.

At one of the sightings, Mike was spotted waiting at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport with flowers in his hands and a camera crew nearby.

The next day, the Instagram account Fraudedbytlc posted a photo of Mike and Natalie walking side-by-side at Seattle's historic Pike Place Market as a camera crew filmed them, which was obviously for the currently-airing eighth season of 90 Day Fiance.

Natalie's 90-day stay on her K-1 visa therefore began in January 2020, and she clearly hoped to marry so she could stay in the United States permanently with Mike, as long as they got along well.

Natalie confirmed her relationship status on May 24, 2020 when she posted on Instagram, "We Get Married!" (But the wedding must have taken place beforehand per the 90 day-requirement).

A few days later, Natalie captioned another photo of the couple, "Love is very meaningful for us."

On June 22, 2020, Natalie posted a photo with Mike and wrote, "Amazing #dinner with #lovely husband! thanks for #90dayfiance #love #faith #nataliemordovtseva #mikeyoungquist #couplegoals."

Two days later, Natalie captioned a funny photo of the pair driving, "#driving like crazy with my #husband #mikeyoungquist #nataliemordovtseva #natalie90dayfiance #90dayfiance."

And on June 25, Natalie wrote alongside a selfie of the couple by the water, "This is how we spend our time together #90dayfiance #natalie90dayfiance #nataliemordovtseva #mike90dayfiance #mikeyoungquist #love #couple #couplegoals."

In 2021, there is no sign of Mike on Natalie's Instagram account, but she tends to just post modeling photos and selfies.

On January 5, 2021, she posted with a husky puppy, so it appears she -- and maybe Mike -- now have a dog.
