Many 90 Day Fiancé fans wonder if Natalie Mordovtseva’s mother, Nelia, is still in the U.S. The war in Ukraine pushed many refugees to find safety in other countries, including the U.S. So, did Michael Youngquist help her get here?
Here’s what we know:
Michael Youngquist may have helped financially with travel expenses.
He did NOT file for Natalie’s green card after their marriage.
Nelia came in on humanitarian parole. This status helps people escaping conflict.
While her exact immigration status is unclear, many fans believe she’s still in the U.S.
Reddit users speculate:
“Neither Natalie nor her mother will ever leave the United States. Just my opinion.”
“Michael and her mom’s interactions were always so cute. You could tell they genuinely cared for each other.”
“What does Nelia do all day when Natalie is busy trying to be a ‘real celebrity’?”
But what happens next? Will Nelia stay permanently? And if she leaves, will Natalie follow her back to Ukraine?

Natalie Mordovtseva has made it clear she wants a life in America. But without Michael’s sponsorship, her legal status remains a big question mark.
Possible ways she could stay:
Temporary Protected Status (TPS): Given Ukraine’s ongoing crisis, Natalie may qualify.
Marriage to Josh Weinstein: If she gets married again, she could apply for legal residency.
Career in Entertainment: If she lands a stable job in modeling or TV, she could get a work visa.
For now, she remains a controversial figure in the 90 Day Fiancé universe. Some fans love her for bringing the drama, while others are sick of seeing her on their screens.
“Why is TLC still giving her air time? There are so many other couples they could focus on.”
