Riley is a 48-year-old man from Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania who starred in season 6 of the 90 Day Fiancé spin-off. The military vet was in a relationship with a Vietnamese woman, Violet Tuyet. Riley had major trust issues because one of his exes had cheated on him with a man he knew, and a different one had ghosted him. Riley had hired a private investigator to look into Violet’s background. Riley and Violet didn’t get along well when they met in person.
However, when he returned to the U.S. from his trip, Violet told Riley that she was pregnant with his baby. Riley kept denying that he was the baby daddy. Eventually, Violet went through a miscarriage but came to America to spend time with Riley. The relationship didn’t work out and Riley was soon showing interest in Kim from B90 season 5. Kim was previously engaged to Usman “Sojaboy” Umar and had continued to be a part of the franchise with her son Jamal Menzies. 90 Day Fiancé viewers were excited about Kim and Riley’s interesting pairing once the romance rumors started Riley Got Flirty With Kim In October 2023.

In October 2023, Instagram blogger @90daythemelanatedway shared a video recording of 48-year-old Kim’s live on Instagram. They captioned it as, “90 Day Fiance’ Hot New Couple on the Horizon Alert.” Riley had joined Kim on her Live and got flirty with her while thousands of fans watched their romance blossom. “We’re gonna go out to dinner as a group, and then we’re gonna go out to dinner, Kim,” Riley said referring to his future date with Kim. However, Kim acted shy when she told him to “stop it” and that she “couldn’t date” Riley because she couldn’t dye her hair anymore to meet his “demands for a woman.”
Riley told Kim that he didn’t have any demands and was just saying what he liked. “It’s your body, your prerogative, I have to respect it. I mean, you look beautiful with gray hair or without it,” he added as Kim blushed and said, “He’s trying to be all charming.” Riley also told Kim that his father referred to her as his “future daughter-in-law.” However, in the post comments, Kim denied any romantic connection with Riley by saying, “No no no no. We are friends ONLY. Damn we can’t be friends?”

Meanwhile, Riley conducted an Instagram Live session last month when a fan asked him, ”Are you still single” and he took a long pause before replying, “Maybe, we’ll see.” Riley wasn’t alone in the video (as shared by Reddit u/ExoticSurprise6188.) There was a woman named Lexi who had joined him. Riley said he loved the woman “to death” and explained that she was his caretaker who even bathed him. The woman had driven Riley to the hospital when he was dealing with pain. While Riley did not mention anything about a relationship during the live, on New Year’s Eve, he posted a cryptic photo of his date with a mystery woman.
Riley could be seen ringing in the new year with some pinot noir with a woman whose hand he was holding in the photo. Riley’s followers were quick to ask him if it was Kim in the comments, but he added, “And it’s not @itskimberly90 y’all lol” in his caption. Kim too showed up in the comments to write, “Please let the people know this isn’t me! Riley and I are friends only!” It appears Riley may have found himself a new girlfriend after Violet and wants to keep her identity private for now. Once he does go “Instagram official” with his girlfriend, it might put a full stop to rumors about the 90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days star with Kim.
