Mike believed Natalie was his dream girl, and so he filed for a K-1 visa.
Mike and Natalie, however, had major differences and argued often. Natalie is a religious vegetarian and Mike is an atheist meat-eater who believes in aliens.
Natalie also begged Mike to have children right away, which was a stage of life he wasn't quite ready for.
The couple had their biggest fight in the Ukraine when Natalie gave her engagement ring back to Mike because she said she wasn't in love anymore -- and Mike said he felt "lost."
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 planned to be "cautious" with her heart going forward because she didn't want to get married and go through another terrible divorce.
In the Season 8 premiere of 90 Day Fiance, Natalie's K-1 visa was approved and Mike felt a little nervous and apprehensive about how fast things needed to move from that point on.
When Natalie stepped into Mike's home for the first time, she found it cold and lonely. Natalie also believed Mike had made no preparations for her arrival.
Natalie came to be a bit resentful over her "basic housewife" role while Mike went to work and spent hours commuting each day, and Mike desired patience and an open mind from Natalie.

Mike apparently felt disrespected over and over again, and neither person was happy. In fact, Natalie called her relationship "a disaster."
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.
She later said, "I realize I have two choices: either I am married or I am right. I prefer to be married."
Mike and Natalie later set a wedding date for April 3 because Natalie likes the No. 3 since it signifies the Holy Trinity.
But 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.
When half of the 90 days were up on Natalie's K-1 visa, Mike agreed to Natalie's request to see a couples' counselor.

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 Natalie was still struggling to trust Mike because of the situation that happened with his close friend Sara, who had invited Mike to a wedding.
"We were engaged and I was in Ukraine... His aunt and uncle, he was supposed to stay with them [before the wedding], but I called him on the morning [of the] marriage day and he picks up and he's lying on the sofa. He's half naked and stoned, and I hear his friend's voice, 'I'm going to the shower,'" Natalie recalled to the therapist.
Natalie said Mike had therefore lied to her, but Mike promised Natalie at the time that he and Sara were just close friends and Natalie had no good reason to be upset.
Natalie wasn't sure whether she believed nothing had happened between Mike and Sara, who apparently lived together for a long time but never hooked up, according to Mike.
Natalie later asked Mike if he had been completely honest with her about Sara, and Mike replied, "Yes."

"I don't cheat and I don't lie. You cheat and you lie, and you get caught," Natalie said. "This is a problem and I can't stand it. Michael, you had sex with her. You did."
Natalie, however, kept insisting Mike had betrayed her.
"Natalie, you are the most jealous person alive," Mike said, adding that she even got jealous over his interactions with a waitress.
Natalie said Mike had given her many reasons not to trust him, but Mike disagreed.
"It's true Michael, and you know it. And it's funny because I'm much [more] beautiful than you," Natalie said.
"Your beauty is ugly. It is. Just because you think you're the hottest sh-t in the world, it doesn't make you a great person on the inside," Mike countered.
Mike said Natalie didn't care about him and didn't seem to want to work things out.
Mike told Natalie that they didn't fit together at all, adding, "I'm not ready to marry you -- at all. You're always living in the past when I want to try to move forward... I feel like I'm the only one who's ever trying."
Natalie said she was still waiting to hear the truth from Mike and would feel more secure in the relationship if Mike decided to give her engagement ring back.
"You shouldn't have taken it off," Mike said.

"No, it would be a lie," Mike explained. "It would be a lie that everything is okay."
Natalie believed Mike was manipulating her and trying to punish her for her mistakes, and Natalie reminded Mike that she cooked and cleaned for him all the time, and also made love to him. On top of all that, Natalie had moved from Ukraine just to be with him.

Natalie told Mike in tears that she wasn't his toy and she would never have treated him that way.
Natalie questioned whether she should return to Ukraine, and she said her heart was broken.
With 22 days left to wed in March 2020, Natalie had been in America for a couple of months. Mike had told Natalie that he wasn't ready for her to be his fiancee or his wife.
Natalie told her friend Svetlana over Facetime of her engagement ring, "It was an impulsive mistake of mine. Even though I was mad and upset, I shouldn't have given him the ring back 24 hours before he was about to leave [Ukraine]."
Natalie said as a 35-year-old woman, she really wanted to be married and start a family. She had already been through a painful divorce and just wanted to be happy.
Natalie therefore decided she should be more patient with Mike, slow down, and "forget and forgive." Natalie also intended to ask Mike for his forgiveness because she said all of this resentment were ruining her relationship.
Meanwhile, Mike had reached the end of his rope in regards to fighting with Natalie, who asked Mike to sit down and talk to her. Natalie said they both had been feeling some pain and she understood her lack of trust in him had been "torture" for him.

Natalie asked Mike to start on a fresh page, and he agreed.
But based on a trailer showing what's to come on 90 Day Fiance's eighth season, things are going to explode between Mike and Natalie.
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.

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 by April so she could stay in the United States permanently with Mike, as long as they got along well.
According to online records, Mike and Natalie got married in Clallam County, Washington on April 15, 2020, In Touch Weekly reported.
Natalie confirmed her relationship status on May 24, 2020 when she posted on Instagram, "We Get Married!"

In June 2020, Natalie reportedly posted a photo of herself cuddling up to Mike while viewing a beautiful night sky.
"This is how we spend our time," she captioned the snapshot, according to In Touch.
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."

In August 2020, Natalie reportedly wiped her Instagram clean, and around that same time, Mike deleted an account and created a new one.
While their social-media activity pointed to the couple no longer being together, In Touch reported that Mike and Natalie individually posted photos of themselves in Los Angeles, CA, in mid-February.
Even though they didn't appear in each other's photos, it's assumed they took a trip together and checked out the Griffith Observatory as well as the iconic Hollywood sign.
Natalie's Instagram mainly just shows modeling photos and selfies, and she took pictures with a new husky puppy earlier this year. 90 Day Fiance fans therefore questioned if she and Mike got a dog together.
