Sometimes sparks fly, but other times the relationships end up not making it past the first trip.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While there are some couples who appear to be genuinely in love this season, other relationships are more complicated. So far, four of the seven couples have faced major compatibility issues, putting their future relationships in danger.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Several relationships on 90 Day Fianc\u00e9: Before the 90 Days Season 8 are already off to difficult starts<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0On Before the 90 Days, no relationship is without its drama. While all of the couples have encountered issues, some have overcome them more effectively than others. Four couples, however, have serious problems that could potentially ruin their entire relationship.<\/p>\n<p>Emma Perry and Ziad El Yahyaoui<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"512\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/emmazi.jpg\" alt=\"Emma Perry and Ziad El Yahyaoui\" class=\"wp-image-1012673\"  \/>Photo Credit: TLC<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/emma-perry\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Emma Perry<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/ziad-el-yahyaoui\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Ziad El Yahyaoui<\/a> were one of the first couples introduced this season. After meeting on an international dating app, Emma decided it was time to fly to Morocco to meet Ziad in person. However, this isn\u2019t the first time Emma\u2019s traveled to Morocco for love. She was previously engaged to another man who lives there, although she hasn\u2019t shared that information with Ziad.<\/p>\n<p>So far in Morocco, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/12\/17\/90-day-fiance-before-the-90-days-season-8-emma-perry-ziad-el-yahyaoui-relationship-fail\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Emma and Ziad<\/a> haven\u2019t exactly been getting along. Emma is worried that Ziad is hiding her from his family and thinks that he may be talking to other girls. Ziad, on the other hand, is already suspicious that Emma is hiding something from him. Once he finds out about Emma\u2019s ex, he might not be able to handle it. Emma and Ziad aren\u2019t very compatible, making it unlikely that their relationship will last.<\/p>\n<p>Rick Van Vactor and Trish Stiley<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"512\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/trisharick.jpg\" alt=\"Rick Van Vactor and Trish Stiley\" class=\"wp-image-995142\"  \/>Photo Credit: Tito Herrera via TLC<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/rick-van-vactor\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rick Van Vactor<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/trish-stiley\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trish Stiley<\/a> have the biggest age gap this season, which is already a red flag. After looking to meet women in Madagascar, Rick came across Trish online. While they shared an initial connection, things went south when Trish nearly ghosted Rick for five days. He was convinced that she was cheating, but she claimed she was simply dealing with family matters.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>After meeting Trish in person, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/12\/23\/90-df-before-90-days-season-8-rick-van-vactor-trish-stiley\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rick revealed in<\/a> a confessional that he had to confess something to her. When Trish didn\u2019t answer his calls for five days and barely responded to his texts, he decided to visit his ex in Colombia. Rick was intimate with her and hasn\u2019t been upfront about it with Trish. Between their huge age gap and trust issues, things aren\u2019t looking good for Rick and Trish.<\/p>\n<p>Jovon Fox and Annalyn Fox<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/jovon-fox\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jovon Fox<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/tag\/annalyn-fox\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Annalyn Fox<\/a> may have the most interesting relationship <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/12\/24\/90-df-before-90-days-season-8-forest-sheena-best-couple\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">on Season 8<\/a>. They met online six years ago and got married via Zoom three years later. The Covid-19 pandemic meant that Jovon couldn\u2019t travel to the Philippines to see Annalyn, and money issues kept them apart after the borders opened. Despite being married, they never met in person until now.<\/p>\n<p>While they are married, Jovon and Annalyn have their fair share of issues. Jovon feels that Annalyn has changed and that she isn\u2019t as easygoing as she was when they first met. Annalyn, however, is upset that Jovon has kept in contact with a previous love interest. She also feels that he\u2019s changed, and that he thinks he should be in charge of the relationship since she\u2019s the man. Jovon and Annalyn seem to have serious compatibility issues, which puts the future of their marriage in jeopardy.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Lisa and Daniel<\/p>\n<p>Lisa and Daniel are another problematic couple <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realitytea.com\/2025\/11\/12\/90-day-fiance-before-the-90-days-season-8-cast-release-date-trailer-details\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">on Season 8<\/a>, whose relationship could end any second. After meeting online, Lisa fell hard for Daniel, who lives in Nigeria. However, Lisa didn\u2019t tell Daniel that she\u2019s been married five times and that she\u2019s only been with women for twenty-one years. She admitted that she had a \u201cfling with a woman\u201d, which Daniel didn\u2019t take well to. When he finds out that Lisa is still married to a woman, he surely won\u2019t be happy.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel also seems to have ulterior motives, admitting that part of the reason he likes Lisa is that she will take him away from Nigeria. He proposed to her at the airport, which further raises red flags. Between Lisa\u2019s lies and Daniel\u2019s unclear intentions, their relationship may not last long at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tlc.com\/shows\/90-day-fiance-before-the-90-days\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">90 Day Fianc\u00e9: Before the 90 Days<\/a> is available to stream on Discovery +.<\/p>\n<p>TELL US \u2013 WHICH COUPLES DO YOU THINK ARE HEADED FOR TROUBLE ON BEFORE THE 90 DAYS SEASON 8?\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"90 Day Fianc\u00e9: Before the 90 Days Season 8 is off to an exciting start.
