Former 90 Day Fiancé stars Avery Mills and Omar Albakour only appeared on one season of 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days, but the couple still has a thriving fanbase. The American and Syrian married duo has continued to cultivate a steady fan base of fans who have followed their journey to Dubai and then New Jersey. Avery and Omar have established themselves as a unique franchise couple due to their resilient romance and refreshingly authentic personalities.
Many viewers tune in to the 90 Day Fiancé franchise because they want to watch international couples explore the K-1 visa process. Omar and Avery provided a compelling story with their romance that has continued offscreen. Viewers watched as young American Avery traveled to Syria to marry her partner the first time they met in person. After the show, Avery chose to move to Dubai to be with Omar after his US visa wasn’t approved during the first year of their marriage. Fans followed along as the couple thrived in the Middle East before Avery revealed the news that Omar’s visa was approved earlier this year. The couple is now living in New Jersey as Omar and Avery focus on their careers and family time.
Unlike other franchise couples, such as Libby and Andrei Castravet, Omar and Avery are both hardworking individuals. Omar is en route to becoming a dentist while Avery is working towards a career in healthcare administration. The duo has presented an entirely authentic but fundamentally compelling romance that has taken them around the world. Many fans are along for the ride because the couple has proven to be authentic in their romance and entirely worth rooting for. Viewers like the couple because they are both relatable and good-natured people. A combination of genuine personalities, heartfelt romance and international intrigue has made the couple compelling to many franchise fans even though they made it clear they won’t appear in new TLC content.
Avery and Omar have overcome their share of criticism. Viewers were first skeptical of Omar and considered Avery to be immature and bratty. However, they have proven themselves to fans. Avery’s bubbly and upbeat personality balances out her husband’s reservedness, which makes for compelling YouTube and Instagram content. Many of the couple’s fans also support their religious journey. Avery converted to Islam before meeting Omar on a Muslim dating app, which has been misinterpreted. Some fans falsely believed Omar forced his wife to convert. However, Omar and Avery are both devoted to their shared religion and have overcome adversity and criticism as they celebrate what is important to them.
Omar and Avery remain a couple that fascinates fans, especially since the franchise has moved away from featuring authentic couples and has focused more on drama. Many viewers are frustrated with the current season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? because the drama feels overly scripted and contrived. Avery and Omar presented a fascinating journey of two people around the world working to be together because they truly love each other. This is the kind of content that 90 Day Fiancé fans hope to see the franchise provide once more.
90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? airs Sundays at 8pm EST.
