The 90 Day Fiancé franchise stars Liz Woods and Big Ed Brown are preparing to tie the knot, and they are really enjoying the reactions to their recent engagement news. The couple has been getting a lot of attention since the moment they formally announced that Big Ed popped the question and Liz accepted his proposal. The reason for the big jump in their shared fame is how their relationship previously ended. Ed and Liz had an explosive breakup after they featured on 90 Day: The Single Life season 1, leaving fans thinking the two were officially over for good. Somehow, they managed to get back together, create a lot of drama, and appear in another season.
Ed explained that he didn't behave like a good person (or a decent boyfriend) when he was with Liz, but he says therapy has helped him to become a better man for her. Liz also revealed that she suffered from depression after she and Ed split up. However, Ed invited Liz over for dinner and one thing led to another. They did decide to get back together, and actually got engaged a day later. They basically fixed all of their problems on the spur of the moment. As sweet as their love story seems to be, many 90 Day Fiancé fans are questioning the authenticity of their relationship. Viewers believe the two are on the show just to bask in the limelight.
The 56-year-old TV star Ed has always made it crystal clear that he adores his 90 Day Fiancé fame. As a duo, Ed and Liz share the spotlight, and they've shown that they're comfortable with attention countless times. The couple can't really blame fans for doubting the legitimacy of their sudden engagement. Ed recently bragged about a billboard in Los Angeles, which has his face on it. He posted an image of the giant ad and wrote, "Someone just sent me this 4 story billboard on sunset..!" Ed, who hinted at an SNL appearance, seems extremely happy to see his face, but many fans have called him out in the comment section. One user mocked him by stating, "So obsessed with himself."
While Ed is boasting about his success, Liz is also proud of the vacation that she is enjoying in San Francisco. Despite considerable doubts from the 90DF fanbase, the two seem to be relishing their shared fame as a newly-engaged couple. Liz and Ed got engaged in August 2021, and they could have announced their engagement on Instagram back then. Instead, they kept quiet and waited for the right date and time to do so. The couple decided to do an exclusive story with a big entertainment news outlet to drop the bombshell, perhaps in order to gain the most momentum in the media. This looks like another sign that Ed and Liz are glorying in their shared fame.
Ed and Liz kept their engagement under wraps until the big reveal by the publication, probably because they were aiming for attention and wanted to feel like big celebrities. Liz's second ex-husband also claimed that the couple is together for fame. While most clues hint that Liz and Ed will not go through with their wedding, a few signs suggest otherwise. Knowing how the couple could benefit from staying together rather than being apart, they might get married in the future. They probably just want to become a duo that 90 Day Fiancé viewers sometimes dislike, but never ignore.
