90 Day Fiance Star Aleksandra Blasts "Disgusting" Cheating Rumors: JOSH is the Father!

For one seemed like the billionth time, 90 Day Fiance star Aleksandra responded to cheating accusations


No one likes being accused of being unfaithful, but it’s worse when these trolls claim that Aleksandra and Josh’s daughter, Kaya, must not be Josh’s at all.


And on top of that, these racially charged accusations have singled out Aleksandra’s best friend from back in Prague.



Aleksandra Iarovikova was a Russian party girl.


She liked clubs and dancing, and was around all sorts of things that are now big no-nos to her new faith and lifestyle.


You know, like, alcohol and stuff.


Josh Strobel was a Mormon doing missionary work.


They came from different continents and different worlds, but they fell in love.


Josh couldn’t actually date her — even in a super chaste sense — while acting as a missionary for the LDS, so he had to come back a year later to actually ask her out.


But he did, and eventually dating turned into an engagement — with a K-1 visa and the 90 day limit.


Not all viewers of 90 Day Fiance were convinced that the party girl and go-go dancer was willing to be tamed 



90 Day Fiance: What Now? caught up with Aleksandra and Josh now that they’re married and have a baby.


Aleksandra is struggling with their middle-of-nowhere residence, but she loves Josh and she loves their daughter, Kaya, and that’s what matters.


She knows that it’s only a matter of time before they move to another city where she might be able to make friends.


Josh, in the mean time, is applying to medical schools and is already on some wait lists.


Once he gets in, they’ll know where they’re moving. As soon as their lives are no longer in hiatus, their problems will be more or less solved, right?


Except that people are terrible.


So, Aleksandra stopped posting to Instagram over the summer, and both she and Josh have stopped sharing images of their daughter, Kaya.


Because the first time that they did, Instagram trolls flooded Aleksandra’s comments with accusations that she cheated on Josh.


Why?


Part of it’s probably because they don’t want to believe that someone can change their life.


But part of it’s because Kaya’s skin is darker than that of either of her parents. And her hair is dark and curly.


So these accusers think that Kaya is biracial and definitely not Josh’s.



Aleksandra already explained — even though she totally didn’t have to — that her own biological father is Cuban.


(As most people are aware from their own families, it’s not uncommon for children to inherit traits from their grandparents that are not exhibited by their own parents. I think that it has something to do with RNA but don’t quote me on that.)


Well, trolls have set their sights on a number of potential baby daddies.


Including the black man with whom Aleksandra spent time in Prague.


(Again, these accusations have a strong racial element which should make everyone involved uncomfortable)


Because that man is “just like a brother” to Aleksandra, she’s not only offended but repulsed.


“That’s even disgusting to think about possible feelings between us. He promised him to protect me in Prague while Josh is far away.”


So these accusers are impugning this man’s honor as much as they are Aleksandra.



Other “theories” are that it wasn’t cheating, that maybe Josh is impotent or sterile or gay or whatever.


But honestly — bullying like this always has the same motive. These people want to feel powerful by dragging down a “celebrity.”


You might suggest that Aleksandra and Josh get a paternity test on camera (maybe 90 Day Fiance could foot the bill) and settle the matter that way.


You know what? They don’t owe their haters anything.


They have every right to just keep living their lives.

90 Day Fiance: Aleksandra Responds to Cheating Accusations Over Daughter"s Skin Tone!

90 Day Fiance: What Now? delivered an update on Aleksandra and Josh, their life together, and their adorable young daughter.


Things are going okay between the couple, but Aleksandra’s social media experience took a turn for the worst over the summer — with “fans” accusing her of having had Kaya with a man other than Josh. She quit Instagram over it.


But now Aleksandra is finally responding to the discourse over why her daughter’s skin looks so different from hers or her husband’s. Will this lay matters to rest?



A refresher on Aleksandra and Josh:


Aleksandra was a Russian party girl. She loved to go clubbing and she loved to dance.


Josh was a Mormon missionary on his mission trip at the time. They met and really hit it off.


Though Josh was not thrilled that Aleksandra was surrounded by the club world and such scandalous substances as caffeine (okay, he didn’t call her out on that specifically, but he isn’t allowed to consume caffeine), the two developed a bond.


Their bond was so powerful, in fact, that though Josh was forbidden to date while acting as a missionary, he was able to come back a year later and ask out Aleksandra. She said yes.


Eventually, they got engaged and began the K-1 Visa process on 90 Day Fiance.


Obviously, the couple didn’t just come from different continents but from different worlds.


Which is what made them such entertaining stars for 90 Day Fiance.



Over the summer, as Aleksandra and Josh shared photos of Kaya (which they are no longer doing), Aleksandra was barraged by accusations that she had cheated on Josh and that another man had fathered Kaya.


Those are, of course, hurtful things to say to anyone.


The reason for the accusations was that Kaya has a darker skin tone than either of her parents.


Kaya also has curly hair, unlike either Aleksandra or Josh.


To the “sleuths” who followed Aleksandra (not all of them; just a very vocal minority), this was evidence of cheating.


People like for things to fit narratives, even if it isn’t true.


So they imagine a party girl who fell in love with an American man, but suddenly she’s living a boring life in the American midwest. She feels frustrated or maybe even lonely, and then, say, her dance instructor, provides a little comfort.


That’s not true, but that’s basically what people accused her of.


Others were willing to offer up “alternatives,” like that maybe she and Josh had been unable to conceive and so they’d adopted or gotten a sperm donor.


Honestly, the degree to which people were eager to jump to conclusions about something that isn’t their business … is human nature.


Commenting with those theories under her posts, however? That’s inexcusable.



Now, English isn’t Aleksandra’s first language, so bear with her.


On Facebook, she finally delved into some comments and started replying to people who were spinning these “theories” about Kaya’s parentage.


For the most part, she reminded people that it’s not their business.


Aleksandra also shot down the idea that she’d cheated on Josh, saying that she felt sorry for those people’s spouses.


(It is true that people who cheat are more likely to suspect others of cheating)


Aleksandra replied to quite a few people, but it sounded like she got fed up:


“The thing is, it’s really not of your business man. I waste so much time on people like you saying the same thing over and over again. Lying is what you are doing to yourself considering that you are right. But man that will not help you in your life. If you don’t care about mine, then why are you still here arguing with me?”


“No matter what I’ll do you will hate me and think that you are right. Which is obviously not true. We did this show to show our religion. Lying is against our religion. And I’m not even talking about adultery. What in the world are you talking about? My dream was to build a happy family.”


“Ruin your happiness, not mine. You can say anything you want, but it will not make you right. As I said before, you have a right to not believe, but you will not change anything. What else are you trying to prove here??”


She makes a good point.


What kind of lives, you wonder, are those haters living that they feel the need to antagonize her on her own Facebook page.


She didn’t rehash an older explanation for why Kaya’s skin is darker, but let’s show you a photo of Aleksandra with her biological father.



Aleksandra’s biological father, pictured here, is Cuban.


As we’ve stated in previous posts, it’s common for traits to skip generations. That’s how genetics work.


We can absolutely understand why Aleksandra didn’t feel like going over her parentage again.


Especially when she’s facing off against people who won’t believe her no matter what.


Honestly, the best part of her whole exchange with commenters was the revelation that she doesn’t know who or what Maury is.


(Which came up when people talked about paternity tests)


And that she doesn’t know who Mohamed Jbali is, even though they were costars.

Aleksandra and Josh: An Update on the 90 Day Fiance Couple!

90 Day Fiance is masterful at getting viewers hooked on certain couples. You feel for the journey that they’re making together, and, in most cases, you root for them to succeed.


One of the show’s many spin-offs is checking in on couples that the cameras haven’t shown for a while. Sometimes, they have great news. other times, you find that love has faded and they’re no longer together.


On this week’s episode of 90 Day Fiance: What Now?, viewers caught up with Aleksandra and Josh. And … a lot has changed since their wedding day.



Last March, we heard that announcement that 90 Day Fiance was launching yet another spinoff.


90 Day Fiance: What Now? has a vague title (we get it; titles are hard), but it’s all about catching up with couples who have appeared on 90 Day Fiance.


Not every couple is ridiculous … ahem, we mean “entertaining” … enough to warrant being on 90 Day Fiance: Happily Ever After? with cameras following them around even after they get married.


But that doesn’t mean that they don’t warrant an episode or two.


You check in on them and see how they’re doing.


A lot of fans and viewers become attached to couples and want to follow up and see how they’re doing.


You want to see how they’re doing as a married couple. You want to see if they have any kids!


And you want to see how the person who isn’t from the US is adapting to life in America.



Catching up with Aleksandra and Josh is extra important because, after an alarming and shameful incident over the summer, Aleksandra decided to step back from social media.


Possibly forever.


Why did Aleksandra Iarovikova quit social media? Because a bunch of trolls saw her child’s olive skin tone and decided that the child that she had with Josh, her husband, must really belong to someone else.


She mentions that their baby has her mother’s exact face, while she herself resembles one of her grandparents.


This isn’t uncommon — recessive traits and RNA often mean that traits can skip generations. Traits like the shape of your nostrils or traits like your entire face and skin tone.


There are also a number of European ethnicities in which people naturally have olive skin tones. Look at Nina Dobrev, who is Bulgarian, for just one example.


Anyway, Aleksandra didn’t want to put up with the hate and accusations, so she and Josh have resolved to give their daughter her privacy by not showing her face over social meda.


Or, even, on camera for 90 Day Fiance: What Now?



So, as for Aleksandra and Josh and how they’re doing now:


If you’ll recall, Aleksandra was a Russian party girl.


Josh was a Mormon missionary on a mission trip.


They met and fell in love.


Josh had to wait until he was no longer working for the Church of LDS before he could actually asked her out.


But he did, an entire year later.


They dated, fell in love, got engaged, and got married.


Which, yes, means that the Russian party girl and club dancer (Josh was scandalized by the sorts of things that had been around her in her life — remember that Mormons arne’t allowed to drink alcohol … or caffeine, even) converted to Mormonism so that they could get married.


Whether you’re a person of faith or hold any other sincerely held beliefs, you know what a huge deal converting for someone else is.


But a new faith and new church wasn’t the only change in Aleksandra’s life.


She went from living the club life in cities to living in Omaha .. and then living in a small town, waiting for Josh to be accepted to medical school.


And Josh has reportedly still not started medical school, meaning that they are still living in the same small town.



It can’t be easy to give up your whole life and put your social life on hold while your husband pursues his dream.


(To be fair, though, Aleksandra is also taking classes … but that’s not a social life)


The main focus for both of them is their beautiful daughter, of course.


From what the 90 Day Fiance: What Now? cameras showed, the two of them are happy but there seems to be some underlying tension.


Josh wants to get into medical school but, so far, he’s been waitlisted.


Aleksandra is impatient for his acceptance so that they can move to a place that isn’t a dead quiet small town.


At the moment, their lives are in limbo. Tension is to be expected.


But you know what? They’re doing way, way better than a lot of 90 Day Fiance couples.
