90 Day Fiancé franchise star Corey Rathgeber had exciting news to share with fans about his life after getting married to Evelin Villegas. The 34-year-old Corey and 28-year-old Evelin debuted together on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 1. Corey had met Evelin during one of his backpacking trips to Ecuador and she stayed with him in the U.S. for some time. However, Evelin and Corey's family didn't get along, and ultimately Corey moved to Ecuador. Corey and Evelin had ups and downs in the relationship and were even secretly married before their season 3 wedding.

As per Corey’s rare Instagram update, things are better than ever in 2023 with Evelin.

Corey recorded a video of himself as he headed back home to Mil A, Washington for the first time in four years ever since he started filming for 90 Day Fiancé. “The sense of traveling to a place I have moved away from for so long is an amazing feeling!” wrote Corey who’s been “extremely busy lately with a big project.” It’s also why Corey hasn’t been active on social media.

Corey teased big updates that are to follow and confessed it wasn’t easy to leave Evelin behind and that he misses her already. Corey was shown visiting his family in the U.S. when Corey's father Gary Rathgeber died in January 2019. However, the TLC alum was arrested on November 15, 2019, in Skamania, Washington, for a DUI. It appears Corey came back to Ecuador after that and stayed with Evelin ever since. Evelin’s hometown is in Engabao. It’s where Corey and Evelin wanted to start a beach cocktail bar, which they eventually did. But in May 2021, she told her Instagram followers that her tiki bar was forced to shut down.

However, by February 2022, Corey and Evelin not only resolved their marital issues but also rebuilt the restaurant and bar at a new location. The bar, called cocteles del Paraiso, and the restaurant, Casa Del Cacique Tumbala, are both based out of Engabao. Corey and Evelin have teased coming back to the 90 Day Fiancé franchise, but nothing has been confirmed yet by the couple or network. Evelin often gets comments from fans asking her when Evelin will have a baby with Corey, but she’s often asked them to mind their own business. Corey's return to the U.S. might be just a short visit.

In September 2022, Corey revealed he was applying for Ecuadorian Permanent Residency. He was going for his interview and asked fans to wish him luck. If all went well, Corey will be able to apply for his citizenship in two years’ time. Considering how much Corey and Evelin fought and broke up on 90 Day Fiancé, expectations of them staying together were low. Surprisingly, the most toxic couple of the franchise has proved their critics wrong as Corey and Evelin will even celebrate their fourth wedding anniversary come June 11, 2023.
