90 Day Fiance stars Yara Zaya and Sasha Larin show pride for their countries despite moving to America to be with their significant others. But now, opposing views on the war in Ukraine start to ruffle feathers.

90 Day Fiance: Sasha Larin and Yara Zaya from Different Lands

Sasha Larin from 90 Day Fiance is currently living in his homeland of Russia with his wife Emily McCue Larina and their son David Larin. The family made their way over there when things became too complicated to stay in America during the pandemic.

Yara Zaya (Jovi Dufren’s wife) is from Ukraine. However, this couple does continue to live in Louisiana with their daughter Mylah Durfren.

Both of these 90 Day Fiance alums have a special love for their home countries.

Yara Zaya even tells her husband’s family upon first arriving in America that the only reason she is there is for him. She says several times on the show that she prefers living in Ukraine and would consider going back.

Sasha, who is currently living in Russia, says he loves his country too.

This is causing conflict among many 90 Day Fiance cast members. The New York Times reports that the war is already affecting both the Ukraine and Russian economies in a negative way.

90 Day Fiance stars like Yara Zaya, Natalie Mordovtseva, and Alla Fedoruk are from Ukraine. They are currently dealing with the stress of the war.

Sasha Larin surprised some fans and said, “I am an old Russian ARMENIAN, and I will defend the interests of the Motherland.” This and other comments suggests he supports Russia and their move to invade Ukraine.

I am thinking of Yara, Julia, Natalie and Andrei and their families in Ukraine and Moldova. I hope they are all safe. #90DayFiance

With bombs dropping on the major cities, stars like Yara reach out to fans for support.

Yara says, “I want to ask y’all, let’s pray for Ukraine please it’s so important now.” She also makes her feelings toward haters clear by saying, “I love my country so much, yes, I live in the USA because I got married, but I still love my country.”

Jovi Durfren and Gwen Eymard share caring words, wishing Yara’s family and friends safety in Ukraine.

90 Day Fiance castmate Sasha Larin is not the only person from Russia on the show who is talking about love for their country.

Julia Trubkina is also from Russia and says that she’s getting messages from trolls saying that if Ukrainian people die, it’s not okay, but if Russian people die, it’s “cool.” To be clear, she never said that.

Julia says she hopes that her Russian family will be able to visit her in America soon. And, she hopes she will be able to take Brandon Gibbs to Russia soon.
