It was shocking when 90 Day Fiancé franchise star Varya Malina chose to stay with Geoffrey Paschel after he received an 18-year prison sentence, and many viewers are wondering if she's still with Geoffrey. Varya controversially stood by her man when he received a nearly two-decade sentence for assaulting his ex-partner. This incident happened ahead of his casting on 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days. Many 90DF viewers believe that Varya's lying about Geoffrey.

Russian native Varya was caught in a love triangle with her American partner Geoffrey and his ex-girlfriend, Mary Wallace. Geoffrey juggled the two women in a tedious love triangle before the season concluded. Many viewers were then under the impression that Geoffrey and Varya had split up. However, Varya publicly and vocally supported Geoffrey during his domestic violence trial last year. It was surprising (and somewhat disturbing) that Varya kept calling Geoffrey innocent.

90 Day Fiancé's Varya Won't Give Up On Geoffrey

Varya admitted to dating Geoffrey after Before the 90 Days, and the couple is likely married. Meanwhile, Varya hasn't indicated that her feelings for Geoffrey have changed since his sentencing. Varya discussed her emotional first visit to see Geoffrey behind bars in April, and has since made it clear that she spends a fortune on visits and phone calls. Unfortunately, Varya was banned from visiting Geoffrey in January 2023, as she refused to go through the X-ray body scanner due to radiation concerns. Regardless, Varya is still wrapped up in Geoffrey’s life, and anticipates his eventual release from prison.

Is 90 Day Fiancé Star Varya Doing Better With Geoffrey Behind Bars?

It's possible that Varya's thriving more than ever before, despite Geoffrey being behind bars. She lives in one of his houses, and maintains his other rental properties. This means that she has a steady income, as well as a place to live. Varya announced that she would join the U.S. National Guard to secure her citizenship. There was the possibility that she'd be deported without Geoffrey’s support. However, Varya recently revealed how she financially supports herself without Geoffrey. Varya appears to have established a comfortable life in the United States.

Geoffrey filed for a new trial, and has maintained his innocence. Varya and Geoffrey’s family is also standing by his side. Whether 90 Day Fiancé's Varya stands by Geoffrey for nearly two decades remains to be seen. While she appears to be in the relationship for the long haul, Varya could be enjoying her life because there is a chance Geoffrey could serve a lesser sentence.
