90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way star Alina Shaimardanova had revealed big news about her job after getting married to Steven Johnston in Turkey. Novosibirsk resident Alina was a student of Asian Politics and Chinese language at her university when she decided to take a year off to marry Steven. Fans criticized Alina deeply for still staying together with Steven despite his lies and misbehavior and also because she sacrificed her career for him. Some suspected Alina is only with Steven for a green card but she laughed at the rumors.

As it turns out, Alina doesn’t want to become just a reality TV star or an influencer after her overnight success with 90 Day Fiancé. Alina had revealed in the past that she wants to become a really cool digital artist and that she’s working towards her goal. Fans had gotten a glimpse of Alina’s creative talents after she showed off her makeup and body art skills in her 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way introduction. But Alina’s talents with digital painting weren’t explored on the show as she dealt with Steven’s hypocrisy and cheating. However, fans soon discovered Alina has a second Instagram profile and that she makes customized portraits for a living.
