90 Day Fiancé stars Marissa Rubinetti and Edward Miguel Gomez have gotten off to a bumpy start. Now that her affluent parents have entered the picture, anything could happen.
During Season 12 of 90 Day Fiancé‘s flagship series, fans have gotten to know 45-year-old Marissa and her 32-year-old fiancé, Edward. Described as a “high-powered” New York City exec from an “upper-crust, socialite family,” Marissa starkly contrasts with “hotel entertainment worker” Edward’s way of life. However, since they met over two years ago, the two have been inseparable. (Find out more about Marissa’s family and their jobs here!)

Are Marissa and Edward still together?
As of Episode 7 of 90 Day Fiancé Season 12, Marissa and Edward are still together. That said, tensions have started to rise since Edward arrived in Connecticut. The second they walked into the house, Marissa laid down the law, telling Edward to take off his shoes, leading him to share, “Immediately when I was inside the house, she just basically tell me the rules. I was like, ‘Okay… We start now.’”

How did Marissa and Edward meet?
Marissa met Edward on a girls’ trip, which is a surprisingly popular way to meet the love of your life on 90 Day Fiancé. During the Season 12 premiere, Marissa told her colleagues that it was about three years between when she first met Edward and when they reconnected. During another trip to Punta Cana, Marissa texted Edward, who had lost her number and was trying to track her down. “Ever since that date, we were pretty much in a solid relationship.” After two years of long-distance, they made their relationship official.
Do Marissa’s parents approve of Edward?
One of the biggest concerns in Marissa and Edward’s relationship is whether Marissa’s parents will approve of her groom-to-be. Marissa’s ex-husband has already warned Edward that her parents are hard to impress, which caused him to feel like an outsider while they were together. Now, Marissa’s parents are entering the picture with a visit during Episode 7. At the beginning of the episode, Marissa shared, “I’m super nervous. My parents’ approval means the world to me.”
Once her parents arrived, Marissa’s mother, JoAnn, told Edward that “it’s not going to be smooth sailing all the way.” She explained, “When Marissa came to me with her situation… I was not on board at all.” She then cited the age and culture difference. In the end, JoAnn warned, “Talk is cheap. We’ll see what you’re made of.”
