Summary

  • Molly and Luis's tumultuous relationship on 90 Day Fiancé ended in divorce after only five months, due to Luis's clashes with her family and inappropriate behavior.
  • Luis quickly moved on and remarried after his divorce from Molly, although his brief first marriage caused immigration issues as he struggled to obtain a green card.
  • Despite the drama, Molly has found success with her lingerie line and is focused on her entrepreneurial pursuits and improving her relationship with her daughter Olivia.

90 Day Fiance season 5 couple Molly Hopkins and Luis Mendez seemed doomed from the start, and it's time to check in with the stars of one of the best reality TV shows years after their story aired. The pair got engaged only two months after they met in the Dominican Republic. The Georgia native was there for a vacation and met the younger man while he was working as a bartender. Already on shaky ground, more problems arose for the couple once they were engaged. Adding to the skepticism, the pair essentially got legally married in secret, without a ceremony. Unsurprisingly, Molly and Luis are not a 90 Day Fiancé couple still married in 2024.

Luis clashed with Molly's family and friends and made a bad impression on her two daughters. He admitted to having no interest in being a stepdad. The tension got worse after Luis asked the eldest daughter, Olivia, some very inappropriate questions. Molly was extremely uncomfortable by the question, and many viewers found it creepy. Molly wised up to Luis' true intentions and filed for divorce after five months. But the drama didn't stop once they were split up and off the air. While Luis and Molly aren't appearing in 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? season 8, there's still curiosity about what happened to them after the show.

Luis Moved On After Molly And 90 Day Fiancé

True to form, Luis moved on pretty fast. He remarried in September 2018, only a few months after divorcing Molly. His second wife has mostly managed to remain anonymous, though there is speculation she is also from his home country. When he revealed his relationship status to In Touch, Luis gushed, "I love this girl so much. She is so amazing." But the brief first marriage to his reality tv co-star is still affecting him.

The former bartender wasn't able to obtain a green card in the brief time they were wed. He was at risk of being deported back to the Dominican Republic. At this time, however, he still appears to still reside in America. While his Instagram is private, his bio indicates that he lives in New Jersey.

Molly's Daughter Was Arrested In An Altercation

Like her ex-husband, Molly has also run into trouble with the law, but for a very different reason. An altercation between Molly and Olivia was so bad that the 21-year-old daughter was arrested. A charge for simple misdemeanor battery followed. Mother and daughter blamed the other for instigating the fight, but an anonymous witness backed up Molly's side of the story.

Despite Molly's familial drama, the 90 Day Fiancé fan favorite is thriving in other ways. Her lingerie line has been a great success, with her wealth estimated to be in the millions. The single mother chronicles her weight loss journey on social media, with fans cheering her on. She previously showcased her slimmed-down figure in a glamorous shoot for PLUS Model Magazine. Appearing on the cover, the tv personality stunned in one of her and Cynthia Decker's own lingerie designs.

90 Day Fiancé fans can't get enough of the two friends and business partners, who've appeared on Pillow Talk. Additionally, she and her daughter, Olivia, have a lingerie brand together, likely meaning the pair have buried the hatchet. Though she looks better than ever, Molly appears to be single. Hopefully, when she does find a new man, he won't just be using her like Luis. For now, it's good that she's focusing on her entrepreneurial pursuits and mending her relationship with her daughter.
