The Truth About 90 Day Fiance's Varya Malina

Season 4 of 90 Day Fiance: Before the 90 Days introduced viewers to a wide cast of interesting couples, including Russian Varya Malina and Tennessee resident Geoffrey Paschel. The pair's love story began with Geoffrey visiting Varya in Moscow and ended in a failed proposal. "Maybe, not now? I'm not ready to leave everything here," she responded to Geoffrey, who is about 10 years her senior (via The Heavy). "I just say, not now."

Dejected, Geoffrey returned home and began dating an old friend, Mary Wallace. Although the relationship with Varya was done in his eyes, it wasn't over for the Russian, who decided to surprise him with a visit to Tennessee. The two ended up reconciling, but it's not clear as of this writing if they're still together. And since they were disinvited from the 90 Day Fiance tell-all special due to Geoffrey's shady past, a lot of questions remain about Varya's life post-show and who she is as a person.

Ready to take a look into Varya's background? Here's everything you need to know about the 90 Day Fiance alum.

Varya Malina was born in Siberia, growing up in a small town before relocating to Moscow as an adult. Varya got a job as a radio personality, and she also hosts weddings, which makes sense for her bubbly and outgoing personality. 

She then met Geoffrey Paschal online, and the two hoped Varya would move to Tennessee one day. If this does end up happening, Varya might need to rethink her straightforward personality. Case in point: In June 2020, Varya recalled a moment when she offended a Tennessee cab driver by joking about "rednecks" and "moonshine." Yikes. The driver did not appreciate her humor, with the host concluding on Instagram, "Americans can be very resentful of sharp, but honest statements. Maybe that is why they consider the Russians brutally honest."

As for Varya's relationship status with Geoffrey, there's a chance they still might be together. Mary Wallace hinted at this possibility when she said during a June 2020 interview on the Domenick Nati Show that she'd willingly attending Geoffrey and Varya's wedding. "Of course, I don't know why not," she revealed. "Granted, I've been in Geoffrey's life for a long time. I don't care one way or the other if that was to happen. I would cheer him on."

We don't know whether a wedding will ever happen, but we do know all about the shady truth of Big Ed, who starred on Varya's season.
