90 Day Fiance: Mark & Nikki Call It Quits! Filing For Divorce
Mark and Nikki became part of 90 Day Fiance Season 3. It turns out they continue to be the couple with the largest age gap in the reality show’s history so far. That’s because the former was 52 when he made his TV debut while his partner was merely 19, i.e., a teenager. As a result, this storyline irked a lot of viewers. In fact, the American man came off as creepy, and they found the foreigner to be immature and naive. However, after they tied the knot in 2015, their divorce announcement is taking over the internet now.
As per monstersandcritics, some official documents are available through court from Maryland and the county. They reveal that the duo filed for a separation earlier in March 2022. Along with this, their prenup was also a part of their documents. In fact, the records revealed that their case is still “open”. While the US native is the “plaintiff,” his former wife was the “defendant”. As far as the reason for their divorce is concerned, there are no details about it. That’s because both of them have maintained a low profile eversince their show went on air in 2015. Hence, there is no official statement from either of them so far.
90 Day Fiance: Couple Sued TLC For Wrongly Showcasing Their Story
As the duo began raising many eyebrows in the show, they didn’t appear on social media after viewers got familiar with them. Moreover, they found a lot of red flags in their relationship. First off, they thought it was problematic how Mark revealed he “loves” how people in Philipines believe in “marriage of teens”. Later on, he refused to remove the pictures of his ex-wife from their bedroom when Mike’s partner Nikki began to live with him. Moreover, the Filipina ended up being younger than the star’s four kids. This was again concerning for the viewers and his kids.
As a result, their storyline never received appreciation or praise. Apparently, the couple decided to sue the TV network, i.e., TLC, for portraying their story in a “bad light”. This incident took place back in 2017. However, reports claim that the duo ended up dropping the lawsuit. Since then, neither of them has come forward via social media to share details about their lives. Despite this, viewers hope things might change after the divorce proceedings, and they will know more details soon. Keep checking TV Season & Spoilers for more such 90 Day Fiance news.
