Mike was a 35-year-old from Sequim, Washington, when he met Natalie, who was a 35-year-old from Kyiv, Ukraine, through a mutual friend and the pair starred on Season 7 of 90 Day Fiance.

Mike and Natalie seemed to fall in love at first sight, but as they got to know one another better, they discovered some major differences.
Natalie, for instance, is a religious vegetarian while Mike is an atheist meat-eater.
Natalie also struggled with jealousy issues and mistrust. She once accused Mike of hooking up with his best friend Sarah, which Mike and Sarah totally denied.
On Season 8 of 90 Day Fiance, Natalie was shown moving to America on her K-1 visa and struggling to feel comfortable in Mike's home in Sequim in the middle of the woods. She apparently hated being a "basic housewife" and lashed out at Mike when she felt ignored.
Natalie once called Mike overweight and a "low-class drunk," and Mike in turn felt constantly disrespected. He even told Natalie at one point that her beauty was "ugly" if she fails to act beautiful on the inside.
Although Mike initially had cold feet about marrying Natalie and called off their wedding, they ended up tying the knot in April 2020.
During the Season 8 Tell-All special, Natalie wasn't wearing her engagement ring again, and then Mike lamented on the sixth-season premiere of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? that he felt like nothing he ever did for Natalie was enough.
A big point of contention in Mike and Natalie's relationship was Mike's mother Trish, who never wanted her son to marry Natalie. Natalie accused Trish of pointing out her flaws and weaknesses and calling her "a hooker" on Thanksgiving Day.
Mike refused to believe his mother had said such a thing, and so Natalie griped, "I feel like sometimes I'm in a bed not with Michael but with Trish... I am done with it."
Natalie then upset Mike by booking a nose surgery without talking to Mike first and then ghosting him on the day of her procedure.

Natalie claimed Mike made her feel stressed and focused more on his job than on their relationship. She said she didn't feel loved, respected or cared for, and she wasn't sure their problems were "fixable."
But Mike argued that he did everything possible to support Natalie and she had "selfish ways."
Natalie then met up with her friend Juliana and suggested Mike was trying to gaslight her. Natalie said Mike tried to find ways to manipulate her and talk down to her.

Mike later accused Natalie of throwing tantrums and acting like a seven year old. He recalled buying Natalie a bunch of presents on Christmas and then Natalie giving those presents away to Juliana and her family.
Mike said Natalie pretended to be innocent all the time when she constantly hurt and offended him.
"Get with the f-cking program or get out!" Mike yelled at Natalie.
"What did I marry? I'm being loving and supportive towards you, and you are disrespectful and don't f-cking care and would rather hang out with your friends all night."

"We don't fight all the time, Natalie," Mike insisted, adding that they had not fought in three nights and made love one of the nights.
Mike claimed, "We made love and then 10 minutes later, you were out the door to [go to] Julia's house... How are we supposed to spend time together when you don't f-cking come home?! I took a vow; I meant it. I have been 100 percent [there for] you -- in your court, loving you!"
Mike asked Natalie to reveal her "endgame" because he didn't feel loved at all, and so he concluded, "I am done. I am out. I am fully out. I am so over this. Thank you and have a great night, everyone. It's useless. There's no point in even talking to you."
Natalie said she loved Mike a lot but didn't like how he treated her. Natalie said she always felt like the guilty one, apologizing constantly, and it was difficult to love her husband under those conditions.
Trish advised Mike to divorce the "evil" Natalie and send her back to Ukraine before she could obtain her Green Card and leave him "in a world of hurt."
Mike told the cameras that he didn't want a divorce "or anything stupid like that" because he truly loved Natalie and found her to be important.
"I'm going to keep working at it. The question is, is she going to work on it with me?" Mike pondered.
Apparently, Natalie didn't want to work on it. She called her relationship with Mike "toxic" and said she was emotionally "exhausted" -- and so she decided to move out of Mike's house and live with Juliana.
"I was excited to marry him. I tried so hard and I gave him all of me. So I just kept ignoring red flags, and now, I feel sometimes I am in a f-cking nightmare and I just can't get out of it. It's enough," Natalie said.

Natalie explained that she wanted to take control of her life again, and so she returned to Mike's house to grab her stuff with a suitcase in hand, which made Mike's heart sink in his chest.
"I just feel like we came to the point where it's terrible. I'm suffering a lot. I don't want us to fight anymore. I'm tired [of trying to prove] anything and I can't be here," Natalie told her husband.

"Don't let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya," Mike told Natalie, refusing to chase her.
Mike told the cameras he had put nothing but love and dedication into his relationship and that he would have never given up on Natalie.
"I just don't feel like Natalie loves me," Mike lamented in a confessional. "It really hurts me to say that, it really does. I honestly thought she had love for me, but maybe it was just bullsh-t."
On Part 1 of 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After?'s sixth-season Tell-All, Mike said he hadn't seen Natalie in months and anticipated their reunion might be "a sh-tshow."
Natalie confessed a part of her missed Mike but she didn't know how he was feeling or what he was thinking. She simply said she didn't want to fight with him again.
Mike and Natalie sat in individual chairs about six feet apart from each other on the stage, and Mike announced how he didn't think he and Natalie were in a relationship at the time "at all, except maybe on paper."
And Natalie confirmed, "We're not together. I moved. I'm not in Washington anymore. I am in Florida."
Mike acknowledged he didn't know whom Natalie had been living with.
When asked what caused the breakdown of her relationship, Natalie said she felt like Mike didn't care about her. She said he works hard as a boss of a company and drives two hours to work and then two hours back to Sequim at the end of the day.
"When he's home, he just doesn't have time or the desire to discuss anything. He's just tired and wants to rest," Natalie said.
She added, "I was really happy with him, but now, he has huge responsibilities. And he told me, 'Natalie, I'm choosing work.'"

Mike explained that he had been working hard to support his wife but then coronavirus hit and he lost all of his employees, most of whom have children and needed to quit.
Mike insisted he doesn't enjoy working long hours but he does what he has to do, but Natalie pointed out how she had begged Mike to move to Seattle -- which is closer to his job -- and he wouldn't even budge.
Angela Deem pointed out how Natalie seemed to be living like she's divorced already based on her social-media activity, and Natalie confirmed her relationship with Mike turned out to be "a total disaster."
Natalie explained how she couldn't do anything and "went crazy" at his house in the middle of the woods. Natalie claimed she was "miserable" and gained 20 pounds and had to go on antidepressants.
"I was feeling unworthy and terrible, and [I was] not wanting to live," Natalie confessed. "I don't want to stay on antidepressants."
Mike said he hadn't dated anyone after his split from Natalie, and Natalie claimed the same.
"Who's the guy you were with in New Orleans?" Jovi Dufren asked. "Wasn't Mike!... [And] he didn't look gay to me."
Jovi said he and Yara met Natalie in New Orleans for dinner and she was "with a friend."
"Does anyone know a good lawyer?" Mike asked aloud to the group.
Natalie insisted it was "not a romantic relationship" and she had asked this person to accompany her on a trip to see Yara because she didn't know how things were going to go. Natalie said she had met this man and many other people from a "Russian community."

Natalie insisted Mike is allowed to have friends that are women just like she's allowed to have friends that are men.
Natalie yelled out how she was sleeping alone and not dating anyone. Julia called Natalie two-faced and then questioned the blonde on how she had been feeding herself and paying for things, including an apartment in Florida.
"She has my bank card," Mike announced. "Still, to this day."
Mike then told Natalie that he was going to deactivate her card by the end of the evening.

"I plan on filing [for divorce]," Mike confirmed.
Natalie began pouting, and then Mike told the group, "We're not together."
When Tell-All host Shaun Robinson asked Mike flat out, "You are planning to file for divorce?" Mike replied, "Yeah. She lives on the other side of the United States and has no desire or interest to come back to Washington. I cannot just quit my job and change my whole life."
"I'm not going to scream and say, 'I will not give you a divorce,' I cannot, because I want you to be happy," Natalie replied. "If you think you can find a better woman than me and be happy, I will only pray for you, honestly."
Natalie said this was the first time she was hearing about a divorce and had nothing to say about it.
During a commercial break, Mike was asked if there was a chance of reconciliation, and he said, "Who knows, maybe down the road. Maybe she needs to go get everything out of her system and go live her dreams and stuff. There's nothing wrong with that; I applaud her for it. But I'm not going to wait around forever."

When Trish joined the cast onstage, she said it was "perfect" to hear that Mike is going to file for divorce and she's encouraging him to do so. Trish called Natalie a liar and said everything was about Natalie in the relationship.
Trish insisted, "She doesn't care about Michael. She never did. She just wanted to get to America."
Mike said Natalie's love for him was real in the beginning but then they had some major arguments, and Natalie snapped, "That's because I found naked boobs on his phone two hours after he proposed [marriage] to me, Trish."
Natalie said Mike had given her his phone to look at pictures they had taken and then she went into his deleted file only to find photos of a "very naked" woman from "one week before he arrived [in Ukraine]" for one of his trips.
Mike revealed the photo belonged to his ex-girlfriend, who was trying to get back with him, and he said "no" and deleted the photo.
Trish also accused Natalie of using Mike and never loving him, but Natalie insisted she was very much in love with Mike at one point.

"If you don't love him, get the f-ck out of here!" Angela yelled at Natalie.
And Julia Trubkina suggested Natalie was making couples look bad who file for the K-1 visa.
"You choose to stay here [now]. You used Mike for a Green Card!" Julia claimed.
"Okay," Natalie responded. "What can I say? If it looks like."

"He was so mean to me," Natalie cried to her mother.
"I thought maybe he would change, but he doesn't want to change at all. I am just very disappointed. I was very much in love with Michael. We had such big dreams... I really wanted a family... We destroyed our love."
Natalie worried about being alone and told her mother that she planned to hire a lawyer.
"Mom, we are done. Please forgive me," Natalie concluded.
So did Mike and Natalie really break up for good or did the 90 Day Fiance couple reconcile and stay together?
According to online records, Mike and Natalie tied the knot in Clallam County, Washington on April 15, 2020, In Touch Weekly reported.
But the couple's marriage apparently didn't last a full year.
Mike's Uncle Beau Lawrence, 51, told In Touch in late March 2021 that Mike and Natalie had recently separated.
Not only is there no trace of Natalie on Mike's Instagram account and vice versa, but Beau told the magazine at the time, "[Natalie] has not been home for a couple of months now. She can stay away for all I care."
When asked if he believes Mike and Natalie's relationship is over for good, Beau replied, "I'm really hoping so. I pray to God, yes."
Natalie appeared to confirm her split from Mike on April 27, 2021 by sharing a link on Instagram Stories asking her followers to vote her onto the cover of Maxim magazine, In Touch reported.
In the original biographical information she posted on her voting page, Natalie hinted at her breakup with Mike by listing herself as a cast member of 90 Day: The Single Life, the new 90 Day Fiance spinoff which features single or divorced former 90 Day Fiance stars searching for love and navigating post-relationship life.

It appears Natalie may have signed on to an as-of-yet unannounced second season of the new spinoff.
Natalie described herself as "an actress and reality TV star" in her bio blurb and also listed the other 90 Day Fiance spinoffs she has appeared on.
"I wrote a book about life in [the] U.S.," Natalie also wrote in the bio -- an apparent reference to her previously announced plans to write a tell-all book.
Uncle Beau then drove home the fact Mike is currently single after his split from Natalie in early May 2021.
"Mikey and I are having fun again now that I'm single too. That's right, well there's more fish in the sea," Beau told In Touch.
The guys apparently enjoyed a boys' night out in which they had a barbecue, drank beers and sat by a bonfire.
"Live life to the fullest. Everyday is a great day to live. #life#saturdayvibes #bondfire#goodfood#friendsandfamily#90daysfiance," Mike captioned two video clips on Saturday, one of which showed his new husky dog that Natalie has also posed with on her own Instagram account.
And 90 Day Fiance Instagrammer John Yates reported on June 2, 2021 that Mike was spotted out with a different blonde woman.
"Looks like Mike has a new girl in his life and when I asked if they were just friends I was told they definitely looked like a couple -- good for him I guess," John captioned his post.
John apparently posted a message he had received from an alleged eyewitness claiming to have seen Mike with "a lean, thin girl with blonde hair" while hiking in Washington, where Mike lives.

This person said Mike and the blonde woman dangled their legs over a cliff and were "nice and friendly."
In mid-June, Natalie actually revealed that she dumped and left Mike "abruptly and permanently" because their marriage had apparently reached the point where he was annoying her.
Natalie took to Instagram and posted a lengthy message to her followers with the title, "Sunsets Are Not Promised For Two."
"I am romantic and a dreamer. Alas, my castles in the air are not commensurate with reality. I believe that you need to be with a person exactly as long as you love -- as soon as you understand that he annoys you, it is better to part friends and end the relationship. Which I did," Natalie captioned a modeling photo of herself with a cat as well as a picture of a sunset.
"I ended my relationship abruptly and permanently."
Natalie revealed she had left Mike's home in Sequim and their relationship "for nowhere."

"I didn't really think about what society and family would say. I just understood it was impossible for me to be there, and the love that lifted me yesterday is destroying me today," Natalie explained.
"I don't understand how you can kiss a man if you don't want him anymore; if everything within your soul has cooled to the point you feel nothing when he looks at you."
Natalie wrote that "everything should be delightful" in a relationship, which should include "tasty conversations, and exchanges of energy and humor, and divine secrets, only for the two of you, through contact of inner worlds."
"Relationships should be a beautiful game that you want to play, and not a burdensome errand to pull, simply for convenience' sake," Natalie continued in her Sunday Instagram post.

Natalie went on to compare a relationship to a "nine-course meal."
"You certainly never want to say: 'I'm forced, used to it, comfortable.' We live as we choose. I can't stand everyday life, in all its manifestations; I just can't stand it. For me, every day is like a miracle, and my world is very emotional and creative, there is no place for routine in it," Natalie shared.
The reality TV star concluded her post by offering her followers some advice.
"I sincerely believe if you feel bad today, you need to change something. Why meet a beautiful sunset with unfulfilled dreams, hopes or wishes? Every moment of life is a gift, and is no sunset is promised #sunset #story #ladyandacat," the Ukraine native wrote.
On July 7, Natalie appeared to diss her relationship with Mike and hint at why it didn't work out in a lengthy Instagram post.
"Reliable as a rock, strong as a beast, kind as a father.. What kind of woman wouldn't want to have a man like this in her life? We girls are looking for paternal patronage and protection in a man. What kind of father would say rude things to his daughter? What kind of father will ignore when his girl cries and wants love?" Natalie captioned a modeling photo.
"When I am in a relationship, I am completely absorbed in it. That is why indifference, inattention, and carelessness hurts me so much, and betrayal can kill me. That is why I feel good and at peace with God. Prayer gives me a sense of security and endless love -- something I have been striving for all my life."
Natalie, who said she spreads harmony, went on to suggest that she didn't trust Mike and he may have betrayed her, although she didn't name him as the person being referenced.
"For this reason, I do not seek to start a relationship, because in my personal story, everyone loses. I do not know how to forgive and will always choose myself, and my peace of mind. But what is the point of starting anew? To make a relationship a competition?" Natalie continued.
"I am very devoted to work, family, and my ideals, I want the same from my man. If I stop trusting him -- the whole world that I can build for years and the house that I love so much collapses like a house of cards. And looking at the pile of rubble of once was a happy home, I understand there is no point to remain in ruins."
"There is nothing to build again," she added. "It is essential for me to build honest and trusting relationships with no lies, and no ambiguity. I openly disrespect people who cheat and lie. I want to feel loved and protected -- I need these two aspects like air."

In June 2020, Natalie reportedly posted a photo of herself cuddling up to Mike by the water and she wrote, "This is how we spend our time together #90dayfiance #natalie90dayfiance #nataliemordovtseva #mike90dayfiance #mikeyoungquist #love #couple #couplegoals."
But in August 2020, Natalie reportedly wiped her Instagram clean, and around that same time, Mike deleted an account and created a new one.
Natalie's Instagram mainly just shows modeling photos and selfies now.
