90 Day: The Single Life – Natalie Isn’t Ready To Settle Down (Her Mom Is Pressuring her To Start A Family)
Natalie Mordovtseva’s not ready to settle down and have kids despite the pressure the 90 Day: The Single Life star is getting from her mother. Natalie from the Ukraine has been in a relationship with Josh Weinstein for two years. Their turbulent relationship has left many viewers wondering how long it will survive since Natalie has yet to close the door on her ex-husband, Mike Youngquist. Natalie and Mike first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé season 7, and the two had unforgettable moments on-screen, especially the close relationship Mike formed with Natalie’s mom from Ukraine. Natalie recently reunited with her mom after two and a half years apart.
Natalie’s mom was stuck in Ukraine due to the ongoing Russian-Ukrainian war, and Natalie’s ex-husband, Mike, assisted with her mother’s relocation process. An emotional Natalie obtained her mom at the airport, who wasn’t too pleased that Josh didn’t show up to welcome her, indicating Mike would have been there. Since then, Natalie and her mother have argued about her relationship, with Natalie’s mom expressing how much she misses Mike. It looks like Natalie might get back together with Mike due to her mother’s pressure and the bond they share.
Natalie Is Unsure About Her Relationship With Josh
Monday’s episode ended with a teaser of what Natalie thinks about her relationship with Josh. The clip showed Josh apologizing to Natalie in an emotional moment where she called him “weak” before storming out. It happened after Natalie’s candid conversation with her mom about kids, stating she wanted her to have a happy life. Although Natalie is getting used to life in Los Angeles, thanks to Josh, who assisted her in securing an apartment, Natalie’s mom is determined to keep her ex-husband Mike in the equation. She has constantly expressed her concerns with Josh, which might have pushed Natalie to the edge.
Natalie’s Mom Wants Grandkids
Natalie’s mom made it clear to her that she wants grandkids soon. She questioned why it had taken Josh such a long time to propose to Natalie and take things to the next level. “Josh had an entire year and still hasn’t asked you to marry him. I want grandkids, for you to have a family, a husband,” she said in the 90 Day: The Single Life season 4 episode. On the other hand, Natalie admitted wanting the same things, but a lot has been holding them back. Even though Mike filed for a divorce in December 2023, Natalie is still legally married to Mike.

Josh and Natalie’s relationship has serious problems because Natalie isn’t over Mike, and her mother has a soft spot for him. After landing in the U.S., Natalie’s mom invited Mike to visit them at Natalie’s apartment, which Josh paid for. Additionally, during the recent episode of 90 Day: The Single Life, Natalie’s mother asked her to FaceTime Mike and invited him to hang out with them as friends (via 90 Day Fiancé).
It is a huge blow to Natalie and Josh’s dating life, and Natalie is also worried about how a friendship with Mike might affect her connection with Josh. On the contrary, Josh’s friends are worried that Natalie is using him for his connections in the industry to establish a career as an actress. Natalie has previously acted in several movies and talked about launching her career in the American entertainment scene, which validates Josh’s friends’ concerns.
