Josh Batterson and Aika from 90 Day Fiancé, had ended their stint on the show by tying the knot. After an unimpressive track record of two failed marriages, Josh, 43, was not really looking for love when he found Aika. But the TLC couple’s love at first sight situation had Josh make Aika his 90 Day Fiancé. Although they did get married, starting a family is what Aika looked forward to. And fans want to know if Josh and Aika really found their happily ever after, after the show.
Josh, 43, from Mesa, Arizona introduced himself home theatre technician, married twice before on 90 Day Fiancé’s season 5. Josh had two kids from the first marriage who didn’t talk to him and his second marriage had lasted seven months because of infidelity. In spite of having developed trust issues, and giving up on love, Josh fell for Aika, 36, he’d met on a dating app. “She’s like a trophy to me,” said Josh about Aika who he’d proposed to within just five days of meeting in Quezon City, Philippines before getting her a K-1 visa. However, a major hiccup in this 90 Day Fiancé couple’s relationship was Josh’s vasectomy from 15 years ago and his domestic violence charges. Aika insisted on starting a family, but when they visited a doctor for his vasectomy reversal, the doctor pointed out her ticking clock instead. The “damage done to Josh’s manhood” wasn’t going to be a problem but Aika’s incoming infertility was. The TLC pair decided to consider embryo freezing after their wedding and married in a simple ceremony at Las Vegas. Josh’s mother, still expressed concerns over his maturity yet, Aika declared that “there are roller-coasters, but in the end, we are in a blessed relationship.” So are the Battersons from 90 Day Fiancé still feeling the love?
Josh had admitted on 90 Day Fiancé that since the divorce rate in the Philippines is low, he wanted someone he could live with forever. This random fact by Josh has proved true for him and Aika as they are indeed, together and happily married. The couple owns a mutual Instagram account where they document all the sweet little moments from their life. Josh and Aika seem to have started the account during their 90 Day Fiancé filming days and have taken followers on a journey as they’ve traveled and celebrated anniversaries together. They still appear to be staying in Arizona and also celebrated their third wedding anniversary this month. Their escapades around the world are well documented on the YouTube channel Josh And Aika Adventures, and the couple also does Cameo shout-outs like most other 90 Day Fiancé castmates. Their bio, however, bitterly reads, "You'll hardly remember us from Season 5 of 90 Day Fiancé," before adding that TLC didn't give them enough screen time.
Although the couple argued about having kids on the reality show, it doesn’t appear that they’ve started a family yet. Perhaps, after marriage, the 90 Day Fiancé pair has put baby-making plans in the backseat and is still enjoying some alone-time together. As per SoapDirt, the couple had given an update on Cameo about having a baby "maybe next year or two years" in the Phillippines, as Josh added that he knew about everyone asking them when they'll become parents. Regardless, Josh and Aika surely seem to be couple goals, and serving a gentle reminder for the newer 90 Day Fiancé couples to please take notes!
90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? airs Sundays at 8pm EST on TLC.
