90 Day Fiancé: Natalie Mordovtseva Has A Heartbreaking Past (How Her Backstory Affects Her Relationships With Mike & Josh)

90 Day: The Last Resort star Natalie Mordovtseva is opening up about her traumatic past and how it led to her splits with Mike Youngquist and Josh Weinstein. Natalie has not been a popular cast member since her 90 Day Fiancé season 7 debut. She was seen as a villain who did not respect her partner Mike and was using him to come to the U.S. to fulfill her Hollywood dreams. Natalie ended her marriage to Mike just a few months after their April 2020 wedding.

Natalie’s relationship with Josh was nothing remarkable either. He didn’t even consider it to be a relationship. Josh wasn’t serious or exclusive with Natalie, which hurt her. She was labeled as a jealous person for wanting Josh to call her his girlfriend. Natalie had a meltdown on The Last Resort when she learned Josh was paying attention to a much younger Sophie Sierra. However, the show also helped Natalie discover that she’d kept believing she didn’t deserve to be loved and that she wasn’t good enough.

Natalie Grew Up Fatherless

Natalie Didn't Experience A Father's Love

In June 2021, Natalie first opened up about with absent father and how that affected her childhood. She revealed how her mother used to work hard to provide the best for her. Natalie's mother worked as a nurse in a rehabilitation center for people with strokes and paralysis. Growing up, Natalie couldn't see her mother very often as she worked even on weekends. All of this was done so that she could send her daughter to the best school and pay for her to have an English tutor.

Natalie used to imagine that she would have a family of her own one day. She grew up and remained that savage girl who was waiting for dad at every concert in which she performed and waited for her dad at the prom. She hoped that her father would show up, but he never came. Perhaps Natalie started looking for her father’s love in the men that she met along the way. She wished to have a child and for the child to have a loving father unlike her. That’s why Natalie also refused to try IVF as an option.

Natalie Was Bullied In School

Natalie Is Living With Childhood Traumas

Natalie had a session with Psychotherapist James Kelleher on 90 Day: The Last Resort where he tried to dig deep into her past to find out what was affecting Natalie and causing her to respond in a certain way to Josh, with other people around her. Natalie revealed she was not loved by the kids at school. They’d do something and later put the blame on Natalie. One time a girl threw chewing gum into her hair. Natalie had to cut off half of her hair because of the damage.

“It took me a while to build healthy friendship with women because I was bulled by them many years,” Natalie confessed.

Natalie Had Three Failed Marriages

Mike Was Natalie's Third Husband

90 Day Fiancé's Natalie’s relationships with the men in her life haven’t been healthy either. She first married a man named Zenon Pierides and even moved to Cyprus with him. Natalie left him when he went bankrupt. She was married to Mr. Podyakov for eight years but got a divorce because he didn’t want kids. 90 Day: The Last Resort star Natalie’s third marriage to Mike was certainly not her last since she barely stayed with him for a few months. Natalie has confirmed her split with Josh, meaning she’s still searching for her soulmate now.

90 Day: The Last Resort airs Mondays at 9 p.m. EST on TLC.
