Long Distance Marriage! Are 90 Day Fiance: The Other Way’s Sean and Joanne Still Together? Updates

90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way season 6 returned on July 1, 2024, bringing in a mix of familiar couples and brand new partners for fans to get to know. Season 6 included couple Joanne and Sean, who brought an interesting twist — while other couples are preparing to tie the knot, these two lovebirds have already secretly gotten married.

However, they needed approval from certain family members before their life together could truly begin. After seeing their debut during the August 12, 2024, episode, many fans are wondering if Sean and Joanne’s relationship survived.

Who Are ‘90 Day Fiance: The Other Way’ Stars Sean and Joanne?

Sean is a 38-year-old wrestler from Drogheda, Ireland, located 30 minutes outside of Dublin. “I’m not your typical Irishman. I don’t drink alcohol, I don’t burn in the sun, I get a nice tan, and I like American-Italian MILFs,” he said on The Other Way. “That’s my type. Everyone has their kinks.”

Joanne, meanwhile, is a 43-year-old psychic medium, reiki healer and life coach from Long Island, New York. She is also a mom of two kids. Joanne and Sean first connected through her work, and she visited him in Ireland after several months of talking. The two secretly tied the knot and have been married for two years, although they still have not told their family members about the nuptials.

Joanne revealed during their debut episode that she planned to spend a month in Ireland, followed by two weeks in New York. However, she ultimately wanted her kids to move to the country with her. The challenge was that she shared custody of her children with their father. She also didn’t want to move if the kids didn’t approve of her marriage to Sean.

Joanne told her mother and aunt about the secret marriage on camera, but unfortunately, it didn’t go according to plan. Her mom was shocked at the news and accused her of not truly knowing Sean.

“Joanne, how do you not even tell your mother you’re married?” she asked. “I’m your mother! This is your aunt!”

Though Joanne pointed out that “people elope all the time,” her aunt fired back that they typically “tell people” about the news.
Joanne’s mother also felt disrespected that Sean didn’t reach out to her at all before the wedding.

“We didn’t want anybody else’s opinions, negativity, drama, we didn’t want that,” Joanne said.

Joanne’s sons came to visit her and Sean in Ireland and they were also uneasy after finding out about the marriage bombshell. Her son Joey asked when she planned to leave for Ireland permanently, expressing concern that, with his father living far away, he would be on his own with her overseas.

“Who do I have now? If you’re not here, something happens with Jesse in school, it’s really just gonna be me, I feel like,” he explained.

Although the reiki healer was willing to give up moving to Ireland, Joey called it a “lose-lose situation.”

During the final episode of the season, Joanne decided against moving to Ireland after her sons struggled to get used to the idea.

The final episode revealed that Sean and Joanne decided not to live together in Ireland, primarily due to concerns about Sean’s children in the U.S.

The couple appears to still be together, as Sean shared an adorable video of himself with his wife. In the clip, Joanne was filming while Sean hugged her from behind and gave her a sweet kiss on the cheek.
