Libby Potthast has become a regular on 90 Day Fiancé, but fans of the franchise have discovered that Libby had aspirations outside the show before she joined the TLC network. Libby first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé season 5 when she married Andrei Castravet. While she is now a regular on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Libby also has other acting credits that some fans are skeptical of.
After tying the knot with Andrei, 90 Day Fiancé's Elizabeth Potthast became a franchise regular known for her messy family drama. Libby and Andrei were featured in numerous plot lines that focused on the drama between her siblings and her husband. However, Libby decided to introduce a new element to their repetitive storyline when she announced her newfound aspirations to be a children's singer. This led to Libby receiving criticism, as she voiced her desire to sing children's songs and forge a career. It turns out that she has been trying to enter the entertainment industry for some time now.
