Though the 90 Day Fiancé franchise focuses on love and marriage, many unions have been disrupted due to cheating. The past seven years of international romance have showcased many tears, splits, and reconciliations. Though explosive arguments and fundamental incompatibility lead to many couples splitting, others are torn apart by infidelity. However, not all couples have split after one person cheated.
Cheating often affects 90 Day Fiancé couples extra hard because the relationships showcased deal with drastic change. The show features international romances, which means that one person is uprooting their life to be with their partner. Therefore, it can be extra devastating to discover that one's partner has been unfaithful after such a big life change.
