90 Day Fiancé's 'Big Ed,' Jasmine and Angela Fight to 'Save Our Marriage' in 'Happily Ever After' Season 8 (2024)

Your 90 Day Fiancé favorites just couldn't stay away!

TLC just announced an all new season of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After is on the horizon, and with that comes more screen time for some of the craziest couples the franchise has ever seen. Jasmine Pineda and Gino Palazzolo, Angela Deem and Michael Ilesanmi, "Big Ed" Brown and Elizabeth “Liz” Woods are all returning, alongside some other familiar faces.

A teaser for the upcoming season shows some general unrest between the couples, which unfolded when cameras paused after previous seasons. "Marriage so far, it's OK. It's not always sweet," says Kobe Blaise in the trailer.

Jasmine and Gino have committed to each other as seriously as possible, with Jasmine saying, "Our relationship was chaotic, but now, just death ... can separate us." And Nicole Sherbiny is considering husband Mahmoud Sherbiny's move to America from Egypt the "last chance to save our marriage."

Meanwhile, with a new life in front of them, Ed apparently kept a huge secret from fiancée Liz, something she only found out through his friends. "I deserve some answers," she says tearfully.

Despite the last-ditch vibe of much of the trailer, it's not all so heavy — for a little levity, see Jasmine sucking Gino's toes, a brother-in-law tossing a drink on his sister-in-law and Nicole in full tracker mode when Mahmoud flees her Los Angeles home in the night with her cell phone and credit card.

Here are all of the couples returning, plus a glimpse at their season 8 plots.

Kobe and Emily

Already married, Emily Bieberly, 31, is on her way to Cameroon where she'll meet husband Kobe's family for the first time. She's ready to prove she's taking good care of her hubby, 36, but cultures may clash when she brings her whole family (including their two kids) along for the global meet-and-greet.

Jasmine and Gino

Still appearing on season 10 of 90 Day Fiancé as the new season announcement comes, Jasmine, 36, and Gino, 54, are preparing to tie the knot. However, the Happily Ever After description teases turmoil for the couple, including arguments that just might drive Jasmine back to Panama alone.

Ed and Liz

It's official: Ed, 58, and Liz, 31, have moved to Arkansas together, along with Liz's daughter. But after 11 previous on-screen breakups, the stability of the couple's connection is uncertain —especially as pressure to make it down the aisle looms. The last fans saw Ed and Liz, they'd recommitted to each other on the couple's therapy-based spinoff 90 Day: The Last Resort. And now, it seems Ed has a huge secret that could break Liz's trust yet again.

Angela and Michael

Michael, 35, is almost ready to come to America, that is, if his visa interview goes well. As Angela, 57, returns to Africa to wait out the decision, she discovers "unsettling" details about Michael — leading to the "darkest doubts" she's ever had in their marriage, TLC teases. That's saying a lot, given Michael's past cheating scandal nearly drove Angela to divorce. The couple made things right during 90 Day: The Last Resort, but there's no telling if the honeymoon phase is built to last.

Loren and Alexei

Loren and Alexei Brovarnik, both 35, are finally coasting in romance and parenthood. Just when things seemed perfect with their three kids, though, Loren has a new life plan up her sleeve. It's enough to send Alexei spiraling with anxiety about the life they've created, and what comes next. One thing is certain in the trailer — Alexei is done with kids.

Mahmoud and Nicole

Nicole 40, has moved back to Los Angeles, and Mahmoud, 31, is not far behind her. After four years in Egypt (and constant clashes over modesty), Mahmoud is ready to step foot in America. It's only a matter of time before that culture shock hits him, leaving the shoe on the other foot for Nicole. There's already footage of Mahmoud running off in the dead of night with a suitcase —and Nicole's belongings.

Thaís and Patrick

With a new baby in tow, Patrick Mendes and Thaís Ramone are off to her Brazilian hometown to win back the support of her parents. Previously, Thaís kept it secret that she wanted to marry Patrick. Now, her father is expecting Patrick to ask for his blessing. If that's not enough stress, Patrick's "rowdy" brother John is along for the ride, and might just shake things up all on his own. From the trailer, it's safe to say John isn't getting on anyone's good side.
