Are Jovi Dufren and Yara Zaya Expecting Baby No. 2 Following ‘90 Day: The Last Resort’?
90 Day Fiancé stars Jovi Dufren and Yara Dufren (née Zaya) found themselves applying for the K-1 visa following the Ukrainian native’s surprise pregnancy. While the pair have since gotten married and settled in the suburbs with their baby girl, Mylah, are Jovi and Yara trying for baby No. 2?
Is ’90 Day Fiance’ Star Yara Zaya Ready for Baby No. 2?
Following the couple’s return on 90 Day: The Last Resort in August 2023, Yara revealed to her husband during a group therapy session that she was secretly taking birth control.
“So you know you’re always talking to have a second baby and I always tell you I’m not ready, just not the time,” the Kyiv, Ukraine, native told Jovi during the August 21 episode. “I’ve been hiding from you I’ve been taking the birth control and I didn’t tell you about that [sic].”
Jovi, visibly shaken, felt the subject was something they should’ve discussed instead of her “going behind his back.”
“It’s better for you gonna be mad on me, then I gonna get pregnant and bring the baby to the world for not this healthy relationship [sic],” she continued. However, Jovi took it personally and felt Yara thought he was intentionally trying to get her pregnant.
“I know I can be adamant about what I want and maybe a little pushy sometimes but I really feel like you blindsided me,” the underwater robotics technician told producers alongside his wife in a private confessional. “And you shouldn’t have done this in front of everyone, like we should’ve done this in a private setting.”
Are ’90 Day Fiance’ Stars Jovi and Yara Having a Second Baby?
While the 90 Day Fiancé couple — who share daughter, Mylah — aren’t currently expecting, the pair first ignited baby No. 2 rumors during the 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? season 7 tell-all in August 2021 after Yara’s revelation that she missed her period.
Despite the Boujee by Yara founder later confirming she wasn’t pregnant, the reality TV personality sparked rumors again in October 2021 when she uploaded a mirror selfie embracing her bare belly, all while tagging Jovi.
“Yara is pregnant … with a food baby,” Yara’s rep later clarified to In Touch in a statement.
The pair do plan on expanding their family — just not now. “I want to have one more child,” Yara told Us Weekly in April 2021. “For me, it’s a challenge to be a mom by myself because Jovi’s [gone] most of the time at work. I can’t do two babies by myself, it’s impossible. I don’t have my family here. So, I [would] love to have one more baby, but after.”
In a July 2022 Q&A session via Instagram, a fan asked Jovi if he and Yara were open to having “more babies in the near future?” “I’m tryin’ every day [two rolling on the floor laughing emojis],” he responded.
With none of Yara’s family around in the United States to assist her, the Ukraine native revealed she was toying with the idea of buying property and moving back to Europe.
“I want this apartment to be closer to my family escaping from Ukraine, so I can help them,” the business owner said during a November 2022 episode. “I also will love to have more help with Mylah when Jovi will be away from work and my mom, she can do that.”
The idea of Yara having an apartment in Europe only continued to be an issue for the couple as Jovi felt once Yara got her green card, she would want to leave. Still on different pages about their future, the couple ultimately came to an agreement that she wouldn’t buy property in Europe and Yara is currently still living with him in Louisiana.
