Before Kris moved to Colombia on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way to be with Jeymi, the couple had only ever chatted online and on the phone. Their first meeting in person was on a reality show and it was less than two weeks before they planned to get married.

There was a lot on the line for them in Season 4 of the TLC show and now viewers want to know if Kris and Jeymi are together after 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way.

Like most couples in the franchise, the pair was supposed to keep the details of their relationship, and their relationship status, under wraps until the season finished airing. So are Kris and Jeymi still together? Here's what we know.

Are Kris and Jeymi from '90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way' still together?

Kris and Jeymi officially tied the knot at the end of Season 4, and their wedding was shown in the April 2, 2023, episode titled "A Beautiful Thing Is Never Perfect."

But are Kris and Jeymi still an item today? Jeymi has shared tons of posts on Instagram, including snapshots for the big day. Kris even shared a "photo dump" to her Instagram as well, featuring pics of Jeymi.

But, given the way things ended in the finale of 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way, it's unlikely that they're still together now. When Kris made the decision to finally leave Jeymi after months of arguing and butting heads over finances, she shoved Jeymi away from the van she got into to leave. And it was likely the final straw for the couple.

The pair had a colorful ceremony with close friends and family, some of whom attended via Zoom. Jeymi's family wasn't part of the ceremony, however. She revealed in an earlier episode that she hadn't revealed to her mother yet that she's a lesbian, and that's why she didn't invite her family to the nuptials.

"I can only tell you that it's not going to be easy, and each day, we'll have to make our best effort," Jeymi said in her vows. "But there's nothing I want more than to make such an effort for you. I love you, and I want all of you. Every day. Forever. You and me."

Kris also shared touching vows of her own: "I never understood what it is to be truly loved until I met you," Kris said. "You make me feel whole, not because you make up half of me, but because you accept all of me. I promise to always do the same for you. I promise to work with you to build our future and never take you for granted. I will love you until my last breath."

'90 Day Fiancé' fans weren't sure Jeymi could handle all of Kris's medical conditions.

Kris and Jeymi were up against a lot on 90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way. According to Kris in the season premiere, she and Jeymi were required by law to get married within nine days of her arrival in Colombia, which viewers watched on Episode 9.

However, Kris and Jeymi had other odds stacked against them that impacted their marriage.

Kris warned Jeymi ahead of her arrival that she suffers from narcolepsy and that she could inadvertently get violent in her sleep. After Kris arrived and she and Jeymi spent their first night together, she explained she's allergic to mint and they had to head out to a pharmacy to find toothpaste she could safely use.

Another physical ailment of Kris's was brought to light when she later explained to Jeymi that she had chronic neck pain. In order to treat it, Kris needs a $100,000 surgery, which she can't afford. Because of Kris's various ailments and conditions, some fans were concerned that it might be too much for Jeymi to handle.

One viewer tweeted that the couple should have discussed these medical conditions prior to Kris moving to an entirely new country. Another shared on Twitter that they thought Jeymi would eventually "tire" of Kris's medical issues.

Despite it all, Jeymi remained dedicated to her new wife. The biggest issues arose when Kris traveled back home to the U.S. on an extended visit amidst her son's arrest. When Jamie took issue with this since it happened around the same time Kris failed to make a rent payment for Jeymi's home, the couple fought again. And, it seems, it was a marriage-ending fight.
