TLC’s ‘90 Day Fiancé’ has a unique concept. It features couples who are in long-distance relationships, with one-half of the couple being in another country. The show then records the experiences of these couples as they try and acquire a particular Visa that allows marriage in a short period of time. Jovi Dufren is one of the cast members of the eighth season of ’90 Day Fiancé.’ Born in 1990 in Larose, Louisiana, Dufren is one of the most exciting individuals the show focuses on.
