Every 90 Day Fiance story starts with a plane ticket. But some tickets cost far more than others. This is not a ranking of the messiest couples or the loudest fights. It is a ranking of what people actually gave up: homes, families, savings, and whole lives left behind. Here they are, from big to biggest.

5. Corey Rathgeber: A Whole New Life in Ecuador

After Evelin Villegas struggled to adjust to life in the United States, Corey Rathgeber moved to her home country of Ecuador for her. He did it knowing his Spanish was limited and his new lifestyle would be a struggle, according to Reality Tea. Corey gave up home turf and started over where he was the outsider. According to reports, the couple still live together in Ecuador, making his gamble one of the rare Other Way moves that actually stuck.

4. Yara Zaya: A New Country and a Lonely New Start

Yara Zaya left Ukraine for Jovi Dufren, arriving in the United States on a K-1 visa and marrying within the required window. She traded her home and everything familiar for New Orleans, where she struggled to adjust from the start. Then came the hardest part: motherhood far from her support system, while Jovi’s offshore job kept him away for months at a time. According to reports, Yara once warned she would take their daughter back to Ukraine if things did not change. Therapy helped, and the couple later moved to Miami.

3. Annie Suwan: Goodbye to Thailand, Then a Second Goodbye

Annie Suwan has called her goodbye to her family in Thailand the hardest scene she and David Toborowsky have ever had to watch. She left home not knowing when she would see her family again, crossed a language and culture gap, and walked into a new life in America where David’s finances were shaky. She made it work. Then the sacrifice flipped: according to reports, the couple later moved to Thailand so daughter Minthira, born in March 2025, could have dual citizenship, giving up their Arizona house life so Annie could be near her family again. Few couples can say the sacrifice went both ways.

2. Kenny Niedermeier: A Sold House and a Family Left Behind

Kenny Niedermeier sold his house in Florida and moved to Mexico for Armando Rubio, leaving behind four grown children and grandchildren he had never been away from for this long. He arrived with limited Spanish, married Armando, and helped raise Armando’s daughter Hannah. According to 2026 trackers, the couple remain married, and Kenny’s sacrifice gained a painful new layer in October 2026, when he mourned his father’s death while Armando, according to reports, wished he could be there. Kenny did not just move countries. He moved away from the people who would have held his hand through the hardest week of his life.

1. Jenny Slatten: Everything, Twice Over

No one on this list gave up more than Jenny Slatten. She left her life in Palm Springs, watched her savings dwindle, and moved to India for Sumit Singh, only to discover he was secretly in an arranged marriage. Most people would have booked a flight home. Jenny stayed and waited for his divorce to be finalized before they married in 2021. Jenny’s sacrifice kept compounding: a new country, a new culture, a life far from her daughters. Today, according to reports updated in November 2026, the couple still live in India, where Sumit is Jenny’s caregiver after she publicly revealed her ALS diagnosis in May 2026. That is why she is number one, and it is not close.
