Another season of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days is here and it has brought about some interesting and unique love stories from across the world. A reality TV show, it grants overseas fiancés a chance to travel and spend time with their significant other and lets each couple decide in the time allotted to decide whether they will get married or break apart.
An interesting reality TV show, one of the show’s couple is Sunny Mahdi and Veah Netherton. An unlikely pairing, fans would understand their love story better if only they knew the heartbreaking life story of Mahdi.
Sunny Mahdi and His Tragic Life Story
This recent season of 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days features a couple Sunny Mahdi and Vera Netherton, who like many before them are an international couple as Netherton is based in the US and Mahdi resides in Durban, South Africa. Having met online on an international dating app, the duo appears to be a fan-favorite couple.
While Netherton is traveling to Durban to meet her fiancé, Sunny Mahdi is not actually from South Africa but was born and raised in Bangladesh. A 26-year-old Muslim man, Mahdi was raised in Bangladesh by his mother as his father moved to South Africa when he was pretty young.
Having a troubled relationship with his father due to their distance, he was eventually called by his father to the African country to work at his store. So, when Mahdi moved to the country seven years ago, he had trouble fitting in initially.
On the other hand, Veah Netherton is from Orlando, Florida, and was raised in foster care, separated from her seven siblings since her parents struggled with addiction issues. Since both Mahdi and Netherton come from broken homes, they connected over their shared trauma since both were able to understand each other in a way that nobody else does (via 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days).
Despite Their Special Connection, Sunny Mahdi and Vera Netherton Have a Lot to Overcome
Sunny Mahdi and Vera Netherton are two people who could not have been more different than each other. Despite their connection and love for each other, the two will have to navigate a lot if they decide to continue their relationship.
Thanks to her tattoos, colored hair, and different appearance, Mahdi was quick to develop a crush on Netherton. While he feels the duo are meant to be together, given how well they connect, he knows they are two entirely different people living in two different realities.
While they might love each other, their relationship might hit the rocky shore when they finally meet each other, and since Netherton hasn’t told Mahdi that she is bringing her ex-boyfriend along with her. With so much to navigate and make sense of, the duo’s interesting love story will certainly keep fans interested.
90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days airs Sunday at 8 PM EDT only on TLC.
