Yara Zaya from 90 Day Fiancé openly wears her engagement ring on her right hand instead of her left as most Americans do, and TLC fans questioned why.
Yara has been throwing up some major red flags in her relationship with Jovi Dufren. Yara and Jovi do not seem ready to compromise, which may be a sign of trouble ahead, especially since he has left for 30 days to go to work. The 25-year-old already made it clear that when she says no, her decision never changes, and this includes saying no to a wedding with Jovi's family. The two are bound to have many more issues to resolve before they feel ready to tie the knot. The newest fashionista has announced she will soon be selling the clothes that she wears on the show.
On the most recent episode of 90 Day Fiancé, fans watched as Yara and Jovi's mother sat down for international peace talks over a muffin. The Ukrainian’s future mother-in-law is adamant that she throws her son a party, but Yara does not see the need. During their tense discussions, Yara opened about a previous engagement and why she did not have her engagement ring on her left hand.
TLC fans learned that women in the Ukraine wear their wedding bands on their right hand like most other European counties. They do this because if a woman wears the rings on her left hand like many Americans, it would signify that she was a widow. In the Ukraine a wedding can be celebrated over a two day period as well. If a woman chooses to wear a diamond ring on her left hand in the Ukraine, it means absolutely nothing except it is a piece of jewelry. For centuries a wedding band has symbolized the love between a man and woman, no matter what finger it rests on. The wedding band is a symbol that love has no end.
If fans have learned anything about the newest Slovic bride, it is that she will always get her way. Odds are you will see her sporting her ring on the right hand for pictures to come. Fans and Jovi will just have to get used to it since it is her home countries tradition. The couple has already come a long way as it has been leaked that they are already married and have a little baby girl.
90 Day Fiance airs on Sunday at 8pm EST on TLC.
