Strip club enthusiast Jovi Dufren surprised 90 Day Fiancé fans when he became a father, and now the reality star is sharing his thoughts on his new life as a dad. Jovi and his wife, Yara Zaya, welcomed their daughter, Mylah, at the end of 90 Day Fiancé season 8. Jovi and Yara met on an international travel app and have always shared travel content on their social media pages. The couple still posts their adventures taking various trips through the United States but now with baby Mylah in tow.
Although New Orleans local Jovi and Ukranian woman Yara initially bonded over their love of travel, they have always had pretty different personalities. Yara loves to shop and isn't much of a drinker, and partier Jovi loves strip clubs and drinking. 90 Day Fiancé featured many fights between Jovi and Yara that stemmed from Yara's dislike of Jovi's drinking and strip club habits. Except for the episode in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 6 in which Jovi took Yara to a Miami strip club while mother Gwen watched the baby, the pair's lives have changed completely since Mylah was born.
Recently, Jovi took to Instagram to share a video compilation featuring old footage of himself partying and falling over drunk with friends, and then newer videos playing with dolls with Mylah, stating that although his life is very different now, he "wouldn't have it any other way." Although he put crying emojis when noting how much life "changes," the reality star also added that he's "had his fun." Jovi set the video compilation to a song called "Better Now," indicating that his life has changed for the better.
Fans in the comments on Jovi's new video praised the NOLA man for his sweet words. Some 90 Day Fiancé viewers were shocked when Jovi recently said that he sat apart from Yara and Mylah on one of the family's recent flights so that "Yara could deal with Mylah." While some fans in the comments section sided with Jovi, saying that sometimes parents need to take time for themselves, other commenters called the post "sad." Jovi's mom, Gwen, even added her own thoughts to the comments, stating that she felt her son's followers were being "a bit sensitive."
Jovi also received fan backlash on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 6 for calling his wife "boring" now that she's a mom. This new video certainly shows a different side of Jovi. On social media, Jovi makes a lot of comments about his new "boring" life and dad duties like "dealing with" his daughter on a plane, so many 90 Day Fiancé fans likely find it refreshing and relieving that according to this new post, the new dad actually likes his new life better now.
