Despite facing numerous obstacles, they decided to join the 90 Day Fiance franchise to showcase their relationship and the challenges they encountered due to the distance between them.
After weathering several ups and downs, Rachel and Jon eventually tied the knot during Rachel’s second visit to England. However, their visa struggles were far from over.
