Scandalous 90 Day Fiancé star Natalie Mordovtseva has revealed the real reason why she and Mike Youngquist are not divorced yet, despite being separated for almost two years. Natalie, a 37-year-old actress from Ukraine and Sequim resident Mike and friends in common who introduced the couple. Natalie and Mike were complete opposites, which possibly attracted them to each other, but fans noticed they were not compatible at all since their debut on season 7. As predicted, Natalie left Mike within a year of them getting married in America, moved to Florida, and began dating other men. One of them is her current love interest Josh Weinstein, while Natalie claims she is “married, separated.”
During 90 Day: The Single Life season 3, Natalie went on several dates with Josh, yet in the end, returned to Mike to ask him to take her back. Natalie didn’t like the way Josh refused to discuss babies with her and didn’t help her mom out during the Russia-Ukraine conflict. However, as per a preview of the Single Life Tell-All shared by ET, Josh is very much interested in Natalie and feels they are “talking a lot more” as their “relationship is growing.” He tells host Shaun Robinson that he and Natalie aren’t “exclusive,” since Natalie is “still married” and is not his “girlfriend.” Josh wants to know if Natalie is done with Mike or not, and the Ukrainian 90 Day Fiancé star replies, “I will never divorce for a guy who is not gonna be there for me and I don’t give a **** what you think of me.” Natalie says her staying married is her “personal choice.”
90 Day Fiancé Fans Guess Why Natalie Really Isn’t Divorcing Mike
Natalie says that it’s clear to her that she’s not Josh’s girlfriend, which is why she asks herself why she needs to divorce 90 Day Fiancé star Michael and put herself in a situation where she feels “uncomfortable, insecure.” But after Instagram blogger @truecrime_jankie posted the clip on their page, fans left comments like, “It's very obvious why she's staying married. To be sure that she can stay in the country” and “She needs that green card.” Many 90 Day Fiancé fans think it’s her marriage to Mike that is keeping Natalie in the U.S. “Simply, she needs a sponsor… This is how she seeing [sic] marriage,” another TLC viewer added.
During the Tell-All for 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 6, Mike had shared his intentions to divorce Natalie after finding out about her shenanigans since she moved to Florida. He consulted a lawyer on 90 Day Diaries who advised him to talk to Natalie to reach some sort of agreement. However, Mike had made up his mind to rather do it anyway, even though he wasn’t happy about divorcing Natalie. As fans saw on The Single Life, Mike almost gave in to Natalie’s demands of reuniting, until his mom, Trish Youngquist, intervened.
Even Natalie’s “I love you” to Mike didn’t help her case, so it looks like even when he wants to end the marriage legally, it’s she who is not allowing Mike to leave her once and for all. Natalie is keeping her options open so that when Josh does something that she doesn’t feel is right, she could simply return to Mike. But getting back together with an ex from a toxic relationship is not good advice at all, which Natalie knows very well, because 90 Day Fiancé star Natalie was seen with Josh in California just last week.
